Ranking First Doesn't Always Mean Business! Will you work on a Performance-Based with SEO

In the realm of online business, visibility is key, yet it’s not the ultimate goal. I’ve managed to secure rankings on the first or second page for search terms like “AT&T wireless consultant” and “AT&T business consultant,” demonstrating that I am far from invisible online. However, my primary objective—transforming this visibility into actual business—remains unfulfilled. I specialize in providing comprehensive telecommunications solutions to businesses across the United States, offering services from all major wireless carriers as well as landline options like Fiber, Cyber Security, VOIP, and other business services. My path of least resistance is working with AT&T’s existing business customers, particularly for upgrading existing lines or adding new ones. Based in Tampa, Florida, I have experience managing both large accounts, like porting 14,000 lines from Verizon to AT&T, and smaller ones with just a couple of lines. Currently, my client acquisition relies entirely on word of mouth and referrals. What I seek from an SEO expert is to attract businesses from all over the U.S. to utilize my services for all their telecommunications needs.

My Google Business Profile, listed as ‘Wireless Consultant,’ boasts a perfect 5-star rating based on customer reviews, underscoring the quality of service and customer satisfaction I provide. Yet, even with high rankings and stellar reviews, the direct correlation to increased business isn’t a guarantee.

So, here’s my proposal to all SEO professionals: I’m interested in a partnership where your payment is tied to the actual business results we achieve together. Instead of upfront fees for promising potential visibility, let’s align our interests—your compensation will depend on the real value you deliver, measured by increased leads, sales, or specific conversion goals.

This approach ensures that we are both invested in not just driving traffic but converting that traffic into actual revenue. It’s a partnership where success is shared and so are the risks. If you’re confident in your ability to not just improve rankings but also drive real business, let’s talk.

Asking Gemini and Grok why I am not ranking.

Gemini’s response largely aligns with the current understanding of SEO dynamics and Google’s search algorithm evolution. Here’s a breakdown of my take on this:

Evolution of Google’s Algorithm:

Historical Context: As Gemini noted, in the early days of the internet, having a keyword-rich domain name and keeping it relevant over time was indeed beneficial. This was because fewer websites existed, and the algorithms were simpler, focusing more on basic relevance signals like keywords in URLs.
Current SEO Landscape:
Content Quality: Today, content reigns supreme. It’s not just about having a keyword in your domain; it’s about how well that content answers user queries, provides value, and keeps users engaged. Google now uses content quality as a major ranking factor.
User Experience (UX): Google has increasingly emphasized UX metrics. Fast load times, mobile optimization, intuitive design, and navigation are all critical. Poor UX can lead to high bounce rates, signaling to Google that your site might not be the best match for user queries.
Backlinks: While less emphasized than in the past, backlinks from authoritative sites remain crucial. They act as endorsements, telling Google your content is valuable and trustworthy.
User Signals: Google tracks how users interact with your site post-click. If users quickly leave your site after clicking through from a search result, it might indicate to Google that your content doesn’t meet searcher intent or expectations.
Google’s Goals:
User Satisfaction: Google updates its algorithm to better understand and meet user needs, aiming to deliver the most useful results. This includes fighting spam and ensuring the ecosystem remains healthy for all users.
Implications for Your Site:
Domain Name Advantage: While your domain “wirelessconsultant.net” inherently has some SEO benefits due to keyword inclusion, this alone isn’t enough anymore.
Actionable Advice:
- Content Update: Ensure your content is fresh, relevant, and highly informative. Update old content to reflect current trends or technology in the wireless consultancy field.
- Technical SEO: Check your site’s speed, ensure it’s mobile-friendly, and optimize for core web vitals.
- Backlink Strategy: Invest in or refine your strategy to gain quality backlinks. This might involve guest blogging, partnerships, or creating link-worthy content.
- User Engagement: Monitor user behavior metrics. Use tools like Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with your site and tweak accordingly.
SEO as an Ongoing Process: SEO isn’t a set-and-forget strategy. It requires continuous adaptation to algorithm changes and user behavior shifts.

Gemini’s response provides a good overview, but it’s also important to perform a detailed SEO audit of your specific site to uncover any particular issues or opportunities. This could involve looking at keyword usage, site structure, content quality, and technical SEO elements. If you’ve been relying on strategies effective 19 years ago without evolving, there’s likely room for significant improvement.

My take I need to first fix my bounce rate

I add a search bar yesterday to my wireless consultant site. I did not have one so I am hoping it makes things easier and next I will add a frequently asked questions page.
I am hoping this lowers my bounce rate and improves my rankings.

Update on 1/24/2025

I just learned my Google search’s can be personalized and not personalized. If I Google AT&T Wireless Consultant. My Google business profile shows up personalized in my neighborhood Westchase and If I turn it off personalization my Google business profile show up in Tampa the city.

I did the same for AT&T business wireless consultant and my websites shows on the first page in Westchase personalized and Tampa without personalization.

What to do now! I get credit if I process any services for AT&T business customers especially new lines and upgrades. The new lines and upgrades for wireless is the easiest thing for me to do.
