Introduction
Let’s be real for a second.
You launched your business website or online store hoping it would bring you clients.
But weeks… months… even YEARS have passed.
Still no traffic. Still no clients from Google. Still relying on referrals, WhatsApp, or Instagram DMs to close deals.
This short report is going to show you exactly why that’s happening — and most importantly — how to fix it even if you know nothing about SEO.
Let’s go.
The Google Client Problem in Nigeria
Most Nigerian businesses don't get clients from Google.
Why?
Because most Nigerian business owners don’t even know how Google search works.
When someone types "Buy Ankara shoes in Abuja" or “Best event planner in Lagos,” they’re ready to pay.
But if your business doesn’t show up, someone else gets that money.
That’s how it works.
3 Brutal Reasons Why You're Not Getting Clients from Google
Let me break it down quickly:
1. You’re Invisible on Google
No blog, no content, no SEO. Google doesn’t even know your business exists.
2. You Have No Backlinks
Backlinks = Trust.No backlinks = Google sees your site as “unimportant.”
3. Your Website is Just a Digital Poster
No new content. No optimized pages. No keywords. Just a homepage, “About Us” and “Contact” page.
This is why you’re not getting discovered.
How I Discovered the Power of Blogging (Real Story)
In 2019, I had zero traffic.
Nobody visited my blog. I wasn’t getting leads. Just vibes.
So I started publishing detailed, helpful blog content—like 2,500 to 5,000 words long.
Within 3 months, I had just 12 posts.But each was a magnet.
Result?
5,000 monthly visitors
1,814 backlinks to one post
Thousands of signups
Clients started emailing me weekly
That’s the power of strategic content + Google.
5. What Google Really Wants from Your Website
Google doesn’t just want a pretty website.
It wants 3 things:
Relevant Content: Pages and blog posts that answer people’s questions.
Authority: Backlinks from other trusted websites.
User Experience: Fast, mobile-friendly, and useful websites.
You fix these, and Google will start sending you clients.
The Fix: How to Start Getting Clients from Google
If you want traffic from Google, here’s what to do:
✅ Start Blogging
Publish 2 to 4 helpful, keyword-rich blog posts per month (2,500+ words each).
✅ Promote Your Posts
Use influencer marketing, Twitter, and Pinterest to get social shares and backlinks.
✅ Optimize for Keywords
Use tools like Ubersuggest or Google’s Keyword Planner to find what your audience is searching for.
✅ Build Links
Start reaching out for guest posts, partnerships, and get mentioned by others.
[Case Study] How I Got 1,814 Backlinks and 5,000 Visits on a New Blog
I once published a blog post titled:
“68 Tactics to Get 1,000 Twitter Followers Fast.”
I promoted it like mad — Twitter threads, cold emails, Pinterest pins.
That post got:
Over 6,000 social shares
1,814 backlinks
#1 ranking on Google for competitive keywords
It drove thousands of clicks from Google alone.
That one post put me on the map.

Fraudsters come in various shapes and tactics, but their goal is to rip you off your hard-earned funds. My first error was investing my time and my crypto assets into something I am not knowledgeable about, thinking I would increase my income. I am a victim of an investment Crypto scam and lost $1,109,530 in digital assets. Realizing my errors, I decided to stay off the internet for some time. I was off the internet for a while, trying to report the fraud to legal authorities and to clear my mind, and luckily for me, when I came back, I came across an article on how to trace and recover crypto sent to scammers or the wrong wallet. The article was…
