Why Most Small Websites Don’t Rank #1 (and What Really Matters)
At Gutensite, we believe in complete transparency when it comes to SEO. We’re happy to help you improve your search engine visibility; however, only if you have genuine ranking or content concerns.
Key realities to keep in mind:
-
Traffic trumps content volume.
Search engines like Google favor domains with established traffic; high-volume sites, such as brokerage portals or Zillow, typically dominate the top spots, so even a wealth of SEO optimized pages on a small site seldom breaks through. -
Uniqueness matters more than keyword density.
Realtor blogs and property listings often mirror what appears elsewhere on the web; without truly unique insights or data, these pages attract only modest organic visits. -
Marketing amplifies SEO results.
To make SEO work for you, you must also drive active traffic via email outreach, social media, paid ads or partnerships—simply publishing content is rarely enough.
Why You Can Ignore Those “SEO Audit” Spam Emails
Every week I receive dozens of nearly identical offers, some even tout great rankings for domains that don’t yet exist. These mass-mailed pitches:
- Have no real site data behind them.
- Claim generous results with zero credibility.
- Prey on anxiety rather than deliver value.
Rest assured, they are not a reliable indicator of your site’s health or potential.
