Please click on the question that below to find out the answers. We have compiled some of the most frequently asked questions from our clients and also included information that you may find useful.
In order to get you into the auto-complete, we need to establish authority for the keyword phrase. The time that it takes can vary depending upon the competitiveness of the keyword phrase, but look for the keyword phrases to start showing up in Bing within 30 or so days, and Google 90+ days.
Google tells us that 71% of all users engage with the auto-complete. Over 91% of users look at the auto-complete, but 71% of searchers actually use the auto-complete. When a user looks for your product or service and they see you suggested in the auto-complete, it tends to give them increased confidence in your company brand. Of course, when the user clicks on your business in the auto-complete, every organic listing will display your business, not your competition. Our customers typically experience a spike in business from this additional, exclusive source.
Yes, we do. Your business can appear in every organic listing on the first page of Google and Bing. The Preferred Adviser will also enhance your overall online presence and authority for each search engine. The Preferred Adviser will give your business consistency in results and monthly costs. We'll be happy to address any questions you have via our Help Desk or preferably in a meeting.
Absolutely! Consumers use search engines like Bing and Google because they have a need or a want. When they begin their search, they are a prospect. When they click onto a listing for your business, they become a qualified lead.
We bring you leads from Yelp, BBB, YouTube, blogs, press releases, aggregate sites like YP.com, DexKnows, Merchant Circle and others. Because The Preferred Adviser brings all of this content to the first page of Bing, Google, and soon Yahoo, users will find your website pages, too.
Yes, we do. Although we cannot track your phone calls or in-person business visits, we can and do track the increased traffic to your website.
The Preferred Adviser will produce regular reports to show you the additional traffic we drive to your business, no matter the source. Our product, Search Box Optimization, is at the forefront of online search technology and will give your business the advantage you deserve.
No. The Preferred Adviser gives your business much more. More presence and exposure online, more spots on the first page of Google, Bing, and Yahoo, more click-throughs to your website and, ultimately, more revenue.

Bottom line - would you rather appear once on the first page of a search engine, or ten times? The Preferred Adviser can give your business ten.
Yes. In order to get your keyword phrases to show up as suggestions in the auto-complete box, we need to build authority. To do this, we will create YouTube videos for you, press-releases and/or blogs, post to directory listings and post to social media. This is work that will be very beneficial for your organic rankings as a whole also, but we do this so Google and Bing will add you as a suggested company in the auto-complete. See how Search Box Optimization compares with standard SEO and pay-per-click here.
We do not. In order to influence the auto complete, Google looks to see what is currently trending, so our process works down the lines of social influences, to gain authority for the website and to build social awareness, and do it in such a way that meets Google’s algorithm standards for determining what to suggest in the auto-complete.
This social media trending work that we do is very specific to getting Google to start suggesting the company in the auto-complete. So we do some things similar to SEO, but specifically tailored towards influencing the indicators that Google looks at to determine what to put in the auto-suggest, which is mostly social trending.
Once a keyword phrase is allocated, it is no longer available. To test if the keyword phrase that you want is still available, just go to Google or Bing and type in the keyword phrase. If the auto-completes box shows any company name after the keyword phrase in the suggestion box, the keyword phrase is taken. If not, then the keyword phrase is likely still available. There may be times when the keyword phrase has been purchased, but not yet appearing in the auto-complete. Contact us today to get started on your business evolution.
In our Search Box Optimization program, there are no fees other than the monthly cost. We have no hidden costs - your monthly cost is locked in when you submit your order.
We sell keyword phrases for local and national businesses. A local keyword phrase means that you have a location designation in the phrase. For instance, garage door repair Los Angeles would be a local keyword phrase, whereas garage door repair would be a national keyword phrase.
When you purchase a national keyword phrase, you should be able to assist customers across the country. National keyword phrases are great for franchise businesses, but local keywords drive customers to the local business.
National keyword phrases get thousands and even tens of thousands of searches per month. A national mortgage bank may want to purchase "home loans" and other related searches. They will receive inquiries from every State and need to be able to service those customers.
The price for keyword phrases is based on the competitiveness of the keyword phrase. The work involved in getting a national keyword phrase will be dependent on many factors, so we price the national keyword phrases individually.
