Can I do SEO myself or should I hire an expert?

ROI answers

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) works by improving your website’s relevance to specific search queries, signalling this relevance to search engines like Google, and ultimately increasing your organic (non-paid) ranking in Australian search results.

  • AI-Powered Keyword Research: Current systems include advanced AI tools within platforms like ROI.com.au’s suite, identifying high-intent, low-competition keywords specific to the Australian market.
  • Technical SEO Audits: Automated site audits now feature comprehensive checks for mobile-friendliness, site speed (critical for Google’s Core Web Vitals), and schema markup implementation.
  • Local SEO Optimisation: Optimising your Google Business Profile and building local citations are vital for Australian businesses, and platforms now integrate directly with these services.

In 2026, Google’s algorithms are increasingly sophisticated, placing a greater emphasis on user experience, E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness), and compliance with Australian privacy regulations like the Online Safety Act. Successfully navigating these factors requires ongoing monitoring, data analysis, and adaptation. Furthermore, competitor analysis is crucial; understanding what strategies your competitors are employing in the Australian landscape is vital for staying ahead.
