The Art + Science of SEO
You can’t check SEO off on an inbound to do list — if only it were that easy! Instead, as the inbound landscape has grown more complex, so has what it takes to be an SEO master.
Content
Keyword research is the discipline of unearthing powerful content opportunities based on what your buyers are searching for online — from product reviews and comparison, to FAQs and solutions to their most pressing problems. This guides decision-making in content strategy development, as well as content optimization later on.
Optimization
Every page you publish on your website, whether it’s a product page, a blog article, or landing page, must be written for humans first … and then optimized for our SEO robot overlords second. On-page optimization (meta tags, image optimization, schema, and more) improves overall website visibility, as well as individual page rankings.
Website
You could be absolutely killing it on the content and page optimization front. But if your website, under the hood, isn’t built to provide the best user experience possible, you’re going to see your rankings tank. Search engines like Google are weighing factors like website speed and page load time more heavily than ever before when ranking.
Off-Page SEO
Often overlooked, off-page optimization refers to actions taken outside of your own website to impact your rankings within search engine results pages. This includes link-building, social media marketing, and influencer outreach. Nailing off-page SEO isn’t easy. You need a human approach to build the high-quality connections you need.
Performance Monitoring
You can’t set it and forget it with your approach to SEO. Again, we wish it were that simple! You need to continuously monitor your website performance, so you can iterate, revise, or pivot entirely, as needed. Particularly since the rules that govern how well your website’s content will rank are constantly changing with every new update.
