Why brands need organic search
🌱 Organic searches are more likely to convert than paid searches.
🌱 In 2024, YoY brand discovery decreased from 1 out of 3 new website visitors to 1 out of 4 new website visitors when top of funnel content strategy was not a priority in 2023.
🌱 With ChatGPT search live, helpful content with an original POV is more important than ever.
How I work with founders and marketing teams
First, we’ll kick things off.
Before our official project kickoff, I’ll send over a list of questions to help you prepare for topics like strategic goals, marketing goals, existing processes, and a list of competitors.
After the meeting, we’ll part ways for two to four weeks as discovery research begins.
Then, I’ll research and audit.
During SEO discovery, I’ll conduct a 360° assessment of your website including content organization and quality, UX approach, and technical health. If there’s a low hanging fruit task that will drive positive outcomes for the site, we’ll start executing on that too.
Deliverables include:
Keyword research / SERP analysis
Competitive analysis
Technical SEO audit
Content audit
Next, I’ll roadmap and prioritize.
In the final phase of discovery, I’ll build a blueprint of SEO tasks prioritized by impact versus effort.
Deliverables include:
SEO roadmap
Metadata recommendations
After that, we’ll start creating together.
We’ll grow your audience by building intent-centered content that earns credibility and trust with Google and other search engines.
Deliverables include:
Content structures + briefs
Content production process documentation
Technical writing support + SME collaboration
As we go, we’ll monitor and measure.
We’ll work together to define and use directional measures that align with your goals. Once content is in production, I’ll use data-backed hypotheses to implement, test, track, and iterate.
