  • Technical Stuff: Making sure your website is fast, easy to navigate, and mobile-friendly.

Your Role in the SEO Process

You might be thinking, “Isn’t SEO something I hire an expert for?” Absolutely! But you play a crucial role in making it successful. Here’s how:

  1. Share Your Expertise: Tell us about your business, your ideal customers, and the words they use to find you. This helps us target the right keywords and create relevant content.

  2. Provide Feedback: Let us know what kind of content resonates with your audience. Share your knowledge about your industry – blog post ideas, customer questions, etc. This helps us create content that’s both helpful and search-engine friendly.

  3. Promote Your Content: Share your website’s blog posts and articles on social media, in email newsletters, and through other channels. This helps build those valuable backlinks and reinforces your expertise.

  4. Be Patient: SEO is a marathon, not a sprint. It takes time to see results, but with consistent effort, the payoff is huge.
