As choosing a quality gazebo from a reliable supplier can be a lengthy decision, a significant number of enquiries and revenue are generated up to 12-30 days after a users’ first visit to the site. Potential customers need to shop around, check out the competition, make price comparisons. By the time users are ready to convert, they probably won’t even remember the name of your brand, let alone the exact terminology you’re using in your product titles.
