Today's #SEOTip πŸ’ͺ When someone uses the argument that they don't have time/resources to do X/Y "FOR SEO" (so myopic right? ok, but don't say that πŸ˜‰): Show how it's NOT about "SEO" but users experience & company's biz goals, including their own area ones, with data! Here's how:
...

A) If it's an error (eg: Showing 404 HTTP status): Show how many *users* in aggregate access to those pages each month in the last year (Crawl+Google Analytics Data) and can't *BUY* on the site due to that. Do a screen recording of users clicking on links going to...
... those pages showing the *bad* effect in their customer journey. Show also how much traffic and conversions similar "working" pages of those with errors are attracting now, that you're missing to get in the errors ones in aggregate!

...
B) If it's an opportunity (eg: Featuring more descriptive content on pages): Show how pages featuring the type of content you're recommending to add are outranking you in first positions, how much organic traffic they're getting (use SEMrush/Ahrefs/etc.) vs. yours due to that...
... and show: 1) how much does this traffic would cost if you were to do PPC to attract it 2) Based on your current conversion rate data on these pages, how many extra conversions (and revenue) you would get with this extra traffic being attracted to them!

...
...By doing this, you'll show how it's not about SEO but the business:

1) how these issues are hurting customers
2) how much $$$ they're missing
3) how competitors are already profiting
4) how much more it would cost trying achieve it in other ways (ppc)

and get that support!

πŸ’₯ 10 Errors I've done as an SEO (I wish I had been warned of), & how to avoid them...

1. Saying yes to what looked as attractive SEO job/projects w/o validating well there was a fit for SEO, resulting in unsuccessful processes.

...
...

Early in my career as an SEO, I accepted what looked to be "attractive" positions or projects just to later realize decision makers were not really invested in the project, there were little resources or no flexibility to execute, and ended up being in professional...
... scenarios that were negative/stressful.

This is why it’s critical to not feel β€œpushed” to pitch/accept β€œany potential opportunity” coming your way: not every company is ready! Check first if there's fit with resources, flexibility, goals and context of the company.

I'm often asked about what do I do in terms of productivity.

Here are a few steps/criteria I follow to maximize the impact of what I do with my time (the most valuable asset we have):

1. Every activity/task goes as fast as it's requested/generated in a To-Do... Image
.... are you in a call with a client and they request something from you in order to execute? Add it to the To-Do asap.

David Allen has a "Getting Things Done" personal productivity method that relies on documenting your tasks to "free" your mind:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getting_T…

...
....

"...if a task is on your mind, it will fill your mind completely, which guarantees that you will be incapable of handling yet another task..."

Which is why it's critical to document them, in order to assess and tackle them based on certain criteria.

If you’re a builder/maker/writer/etc: whatever you create, esp at the start, even if it’s super useful, attractive and for free ... you NEED to promote. The more you don’t have a established brand/following: the more you need to promote. There’s no shame on promoting at all ...
... is part of the journey, just do it in a meaningful, relevant way! We’ve all been there and even if we have now a more established following/brand we continue to promote to get what we make visibility. Have you seen how I share about #seofomo, #learningseo or @remotersnet? ...
... there’s this fallacy about: create something great and the rest will come! Why? I don’t want to leave anything to β€œchance” especially if I’ve invested (and I’m proud) of what I’ve build: I’ll promote every single time πŸ’ͺ the best? This compounds over time πŸ˜‰ ...
