SEO for Established Entrepreneurs: The Basic B

One of my monthly SEO support clients shared something that I have got to share with you! Especially if you are convinced that SEO gets more difficult over time… Because SEO does not in fact get more difficult. It gets easier.  But you need to move through things thoughtfully, strategically, and they simply work out better if you go in a specific order. So that's what I'm going to be sha...

You don't have to quit Instagram. You just have to stop needing it to be your ENTIRE marketing strategy.  That's exactly where so many of my clients are when they find me.  → Either Instagram isn't working at all , or it's working just fine & they're just SO over it. They’re looking for a marketing strategy that will bring clients TO them! In this episode, I'm sha...

Whether you've got existing posts to refresh or you're starting fresh, this one's packed with...

"SEO takes 6 months." You've heard it. I've said it. You’ve gotten discouraged by it. But that’s not my answer anymore—because it's not what I've seen happen with my clients. In this episode, I'm breaking down what SEO results actually look like, why the "6 months" rule doesn't apply when you start from the right place, & I’m sharing 2 client s...

Everyone wants to jump straight to keywords. I get it—it feels productive! But skipping the prep work first is one of the biggest SEO mistakes I see.

“You always stood out to me because you explain SEO in a very down-to-earth way. You make it so practical & doable.” I’m BACK with another former SEO & Grow grad & another epic case study episode—and this one has me doing a happy dance!  Heidi Thompson , wedding industry marketing expert and SEO program grad, is here sharing exactly what's changed in her business since getting her...

"I'm not a techy person, Brittany." I heard this SO many times recently—on coaching calls, in DMs, everywhere! And every single time, I want to shake them (lovingly 😂) and say: “NEITHER AM I!” That's a huge part of why I went into SEO in the first place. But I also hear what's underneath that statement. You don't want to mess it up. You don't want to break your...

Fresh brand photos just landed in my inbox—and they've got me ALL the way in my feels about identity, confidence, & showing up as the realest version of you. So naturally, I had to record this episode. SEO is NOT the place to ditch your personality. In fact, it might be the most important place to let it shine!

Tears, Triumphs, & Teaching My Very First In-Person SEO Workshop I just got back from the most incredible mastermind retreat (hosted by none other than Megan Yelaney in Piermont, New York)—and I have SO much to share with you! Between the tears, the breakthroughs, & my first in-person SEO workshop, this week was everything . In this episode, I'm giving you a full BTS look at what we c...

Colie James flipped the script & interviewed ME on my own podcast—and honestly?! It might be one of the most real conversations I've had about SEO, business growth, & doing the work I tell everyone else to do (but haven't always done myself 😬). We're celebrating 5 years of SEO being a game-changer in my business & life. In this episode, Colie & I get into the messy,...

One thing I see too often in my work as a Lead Gen Strategist & SEO Coach are missed SEO opportunities. Everything from social media bios without a keyword, headshots that aren’t titled appropriately, & blog posts with no focus keyword. But the worst offender is the one I’m guiding you through today. → Ineffective (or missing ) on-page SEO strategies for your “core website pages.” In this...

“A blog that gets you found online gets you PAID.” I have a MAJOR announcement: Blogging isn’t dead! You’ve just been doing it wrong. Not only is blogging NOT dead, it can actually make you money— IF you do it correctly . A blog full of only “how to” articles is a really bad blogging strategy…  Because blogs can be—should be—SO much more. Your blogs are part of your SEO strategy. They should be ge...

As an SEO copywriter & strategist, there’s a tight rope of copywriting best practices and SEO best practices that I know and am particularly skilled in helping you walk. Meta descriptions are one of those elements. You may not know what a “meta description” is called, but I guarantee you know what it is. You’ve seen it before in the wild—follow me...  → You go to Google → You type something in...

“There's a very strategic, super simple way to approach blogs on your website that allows you to be creative AND get found in the process.” I’ve got a bone to pick with Substack. Well… not with Substack, but with the stupid Substack craze that’s going on right now. Everyone— maybe you—is losing their ever loving mind over this platform. I get it, but there are some yellow flags that are obvio...

“I prioritized client work, and my SEO strategy paid the price.” It's probably surprising that an SEO would ignore her own SEO, but here we are.  And you know what? There's that saying about cobbler's kids, and I just keep seeing how true that is.  You're really skilled in XYZ and you help your clients with that, but then 9 times out of 10, it happens to be a hot mess express o...

“Has anyone ever used a lead gen specialist?” This week in one of the groups I’m a member of, someone asked that question. And let me tell you—I could not respond fast enough. That's literally what I do. I mean, how many times have you heard me say SEO is the easiest way to bring in new leads consistently? A lot! I shared some advice with her so she can get more people coming to her new lead...

After 7 years of running a referral-based business, Brand & Squarespace Website Designer Jena Thielges decided to explore SEO as a more sustainable marketing strategy. Constantly showing up on social media was just NOT it. Even though she had “low-key studied SEO for years ,” it wasn’t until she implemented a clear strategy that everything started clicking. And leading to keyword rankings &amp...

Liz Chapman was already super familiar with SEO—for podcasts. She’s a podcast manager (and a wickedly good launch strategist!) who happened to fall into the trap that SO many of us service providers do. Y’know… prioritizing everyone else's businesses while watching yours slip further & further down the “To Do” list. 👀 Enough was enough ! She was ready to focus on her own business growth—...

As a money coach, the foundational pieces are VERY important to Dalene Higgins. She supports people with their financial foundations, and when it came time to focus on her SEO foundations—she knew just who to go to! (Me! She came to me. 🤭) Dalene is one of the recent SEO & Grow graduates (my 3-month group coaching program). And we chatted recently about her experience!  Discover everything fr...

We’re deviating a bit from the normal conversations that focus specifically on SEO. But… you’re a whole human. And part of that is made up of your professional life & strategies. The other part is your personal life & fulfillment. As Angela shares— “It's great to build a business, but you don't want it to be at the expense of your relationship and your personal life.” I mean, exa...

There are various hesitations that show up when a business owner is thinking about doing SEO, but isn’t quite ready to do so. Time, money, and… Not feeling “ready.” 👀 I hate to break it to you—but there is no such thing as “ready” when it comes to SEO. There’s having a website that’s set up to work for you and… not . I have this conversation a lot , so I know it’s an important thing to speak to....

“If you’ve got a blog post that’s optimized with SEO to basically raise your virtual hand FOR YOU, then your client success story can show up whenever, wherever, for whoever is looking for it!” That is the power of an SEO optimized case study! Which is surprisingly easy to create—you’ve just got to know what to include, how to organize it, & why SEO is a critical component to a high-converting...

Questions like “can SEO help me rank in a way that helps  business growth?” & “am I allowed to blog about a podcast interview?” & “can I make this headline better to make the Google gods happy?” come up all the time in my conversations! And I want you to hear the answers, too. I’ve had no less than 16 calls since the start of 2026—and while this introvert may be melting, it’s all going to...
