DEBUNKING THE SEO MYTH: Will switching agencies or launching a new site tank my SEO?

Common Concern:

There is this common misconception that transitioning between SEO agencies or launching a brand new website can have a detrimental effect on your Search Engine Rankings (SEO). There is an abundance of anxiety and false beliefs surrounding this myth.

There is this additional common belief that it takes about 6-8 months to recover your SEO performance after making these changes.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!

Properly managing these transitions should not negatively impact your SEO. There are strategies to maintain and even improve your rankings during transitions.

Cause Identified:

Most agencies tend to follow a very rigid process that does not take into consideration the current performance of your site. Instead of assessing what is already working, these agencies claim to have a better SEO method but avoid the complexity of integrating existing strategies. Agencies often wipe the slate clean, disregarding successful SEO practices currently in place. This can lead to a temporary drop in rankings.
