Great article Rachel.
I want to ask you.
Do you think that you should focus SEO from the very start of your company?

I never knew that such a big amount of customers check reviews before making a decision to buy a product or not. Being able to see if a product is good or not is something everyone wants to do before they spend their hard-earned money on their new item. Being able to search that and come up with the best reviews is definitely a big play for companies to be aware of, and perhaps a chance for them to use SEO to show their product is number one to all the customers looking for it.
