Search Engine Solution
BBB Serving Southern Alberta and East Kootenay 350 - 7330 Fisher Street SE Calgary, AB T2H 2H8 info@calgary.bbb.org
Your BBB offers a unique online marketing program called Search Engine Solution. Now you can feature your business on an exclusive BBB Ad Page link on Google when customers are searching for your type of business. This month-to-month program has
no long term commitments and can be less than half the cost of advertising on Google yourself.
I can personally say that in this economy, I can think of no other lead source that a small or even large business can use to effectively reach new customers more, than by utilizing the BBB Google program.

When I first heard about your Google Adwords service, I immediately signed up for this great opportunity. Within the first couple of weeks, my parking lot was packed. This amazing service is absolutely the best advertising I have spent ever.

I signed up for the BBB SES program under the roofing category and I have to say, 70% of my business came from this service. I am truly amazed by the results.

Exclusive Partnership: BBB has an exclusive partnership with Google. BBB places a Sponsored Link with Google, applying industry specific keywords. Appropriate keywords are carefully determined by a BBB Search Engine Specialist and a Google Advisor. When your business joins the SES program your business becomes part of the BBB Sponsored Link.
Keyword Search: Consumers enter search term via Google. For example, “Roofers Victoria.”
Google Search Results: Google generates search results. BBB’s Sponsored Link is guaranteed to appear in top 3 links on Google search results page. Vancouver Island consumers looking for businesses in your industry will see the link.
BBB Landing Page: Clicking on the BBB Sponsored Link directs traffic to an exclusive Google landing Webpage for participating sponsors.
For example, customers click on the link and move through to a random list of BBB Accredited Roofers participating in this program.
Your Business Review: Customers can then click on your business listing which will take them directly to your BBB Business Review. Your Business Review provides details about your business including your contact information, map & directions and your BBB rating. It’s no problem if you don’t have a website. Your BBB Business Review becomes your web presence.
