Breaking even in the salon industry isn’t easy, especially since most clients prefer to stick to salons that already understand their beauty needs. Our team at SEO Design Chicago will help you break this barrier and scale your business beyond your service location. We use a mix of strategies such as SEO, Web development, content creation, social media marketing, and more.
Web Development
Our team can update your current site or create a brand new one tailored to your business goals. We will include custom features such as online booking, service menus, client testimonials, and photos of your work. We also add contact forms, location maps, and social media links to make it easy for potential clients to connect with you.
We will optimize your website for SEO by:
- Running keyword research to find the terms potential clients are using and optimizing the headings, metadata, and blog content
- Boosting page speed
- Ensuring the site is mobile responsive
- Implementing internal linking strategies to guide visitors through your site
- Adding optimized alt text to images
- Creating and submitting XML sitemaps to search engines for faster indexing
Content Creation
Our team will first understand what your audience is looking for, learn your business model, and identify the trending topics and social platforms your clients use most.
We’ll then use the data to create quality content for both your websites and social media pages.
This includes blog articles, videos, images, product reviews, landing pages, and interactive content such as polls, Q&A sessions, and tutorials.
We will also establish a consistent posting schedule to keep the audience engaged and add relevant hashtags, keywords, and captions to expand reach and visibility. Moreover, we’ll include calls to action to guide audiences toward booking appointments or making inquiries.
Local SEO Services
Local SEO will help your salon rank high on search engine results when clients in your area are looking for beauty products and services. At SEO Design Chicago, we’ll optimize your online presence to ensure your salon is easy to find and stands out in local searches. This includes optimizing your Google Business Profile by adding the latest photos, location details, contacts, and reviews to increase your visibility in Google’s local map pack.
We perform targeted keyword research to identify the search terms your ideal clients are using, then optimize your website content. Additionally, our team will ensure your salon is listed on reputable local directories, build quality backlinks to boost your authority, and make sure your website is listed on Google, Yahoo, and Bing.
Collaborate With Influencers
Influencers can help you expand your salon’s reach by introducing your services to their audiences. For instance, a local beauty influencer might share a video of their visit to your salon, review your products, or talk about their experience. This can inspire their audience to try your services.
At SEO Design Chicago, we’ll help you collaborate with beauty, lifestyle, and local influencers whose audience matches your target market. We manage the entire process, from selecting the right influencers to negotiating collaborations and ensuring the content aligns with your brand.
Partner With Product Brands
We help salons partner with well-known haircare, skincare, and beauty brands. You can use these partnerships to run co-branded promotions or offer exclusive discounts to attract new clients and strengthen your brand image.
Our team will help you identify brands that align with your marketing goals. These collaborations can include:
- In-salon events to promote new product launches
- Tutorial videos featuring the products you use
- Social media content highlighting your brand partnership
We handle the outreach, negotiations, and campaign planning to ensure both your salon and the product brand benefit from the collaboration.
Referral Program
We will design a custom referral program to encourage clients to refer their friends, family, or colleagues to your salon and reward them for their efforts. This will help you build a loyal customer base and increase foot traffic.
Referral incentives can include discounts on future services, free add-ons, or special perks for both the referrer and the new client. We’ll also set up a tracking system and promote the program across your website, social media, and in-salon materials.
Analysis and Optimization
Our team will monitor your digital performance, including website traffic, social media engagement, ad campaigns, and search engine rankings.
We’ll then use the data to identify what’s working and areas that need improvement to ensure your marketing efforts deliver the best outcome. For example, we can track bounce rates, identify which posts attract the most engagement, determine which ads generate bookings, and find the keywords that attract quality traffic.
