In this episode of the Digitally Overwhelmed podcast I talk about the top mistakes you need to avoid and how to plan for your site migration. I cringe when I hear the horror stories of business owners who didn't have a plan for migrating their sites.  Here are a few: - 30% drop in site traffic over 3 months - Data gaps (o no data) in their Google Analytics - 404 errors across their entire site tha...

This week on the Digitally Overwhelmed podcast I got to interview author and popular keynote speaker, Mike Michalowicz. I had so much fun interviewing Mike because he has so much wisdom to share about running your small business finance (among other things). Sometimes when it comes to "serious" topics like doing the finances in our business, it can be hard to find resources and frameworks that are...

This is such a good question and one that I took for granted in many ways, since I've seen how all these skills and roles overlap and connect within many client projects. My first recommendation is that instead of thinking of them as people, think about them as unique skill sets. So you might have someone who is a Web Developer/Web Designer hybrid. Or a Web Developer who also has SEO skills.    Th...

Last week I did a post on how to start doing SEO on a new site and this week I'm juxtaposing that blog post with this one: doing SEO on older sites (3+ years old). Although all sites have a specific amount of time they've been online, when I mention age here, also take into account how intentional you've been with your blog writing and SEO. Have you specifically picked and used new keywords? Have...

I'm writing this on a cool fall morning. I was reflecting how these transition months feel strange to me, like my body is out of place, trying to adjust to the shift of temperature. Getting out of bed feels different and overall it's just a different reality. Maybe that "awkward" feeling is something that also happens when you are first trying to work on your website traffic. Sometimes things can...

The SEO world is a fascinating mix of technical, marketing, and creativity. All these things need to come together to have an awesome SEO strategy. I almost feel like the words "SEO" can't fully encompass everything it means to me and part of me wishes I could just invent new words for Search Marketing. In my humble opinion, doing an audit or assessment is the first step of any successful SEO adve...

It is immediately apparent when you talk to someone who is very passionate about what they do. Well, Kerri is one of those people. I jived with Kerri from the start because she is so grounded on how to show up on LinkedIn in a way that doesn't feel spammy or cookie cutter (which reminded me so much of my own style with SEO).
