I'd like to have my own website offering my services as PC technician in my surrounding area. All I want is a basic web and most importantly: that it appears easily in Google.

I thought of learning Wordpress but I guess that takes time and how could it make it show up in Google? I guess it's best to pay for this, I wouldn't mind if the pricing is reasonable.
I have no idea about this and will greatly welcome any advice.

  1. You'll have to pay for hosting somewhere
  2. Have compelling info on your site
  3. Get listed with AngiesList or whatever is similar in your area
  4. Advertise on craigslist
 
If you want it to appear on search results based on vague details, like "baking cookies", you're up against a huge amount of competition for that attention. Otherwise, if something about your web content is obscure enough or includes very specific details, like I dunno, "Tiny Tim's Tips for Making Exotic Cookies", that'll likely show up at top.

I guess the search engine optimisation is the most tricky to learn, I've been offered a 6-month/£230 monthly package to put me on google. I wonder if the learning curve to learn it myself would be worth it.

Thanks for your answers.

So, I am unsure of the specific details but you can do various cost promotions with Google to basically pay for priority hits. I cannot say exactly what it cost, but our owner has done it twice over the past couple of years. It is IMMEDIATELY effective and results for at least calling traffic were very high for the duration of the paid installment(s).
