SEO purposes other than finding new customers

    Hey Everyone,

    Right now I have a potential SEO client who runs a small manufacturing company. They are interested in SEO, however since they only do business with government contracts, they really aren't interested in attracting customers via the website.

    I am trying to explain to them why SEO is still valuable. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas.

    Thanks!

    Wow, that is a quite interesting situation. I really can't think of any other reason for SEO than driving web traffic. Good luck, and I am interested in what you will present to them.

    Well, if they have a website, they have something they want to communicate.
    A well optimised site can enhance their reputation, and appearing well in searches can help existing customers quickly find them to find information they may want.

    Having a good rank on their website can increase their sales. They should really think about doing it.
