Key Take Aways:
  • Put up blog posts, make them specific and keyword-targeted, and it will build up over time
  • Don't neglect Pinterest!
  • Large websites (lots of pages) do better on Google search results
  • Whatever you do, try to be very focused on whatever goal you have setup. It's far more difficult to make multiple things successful at the same time
  • Creating different pages for each specific item improves your visibility on Google
  • Get links coming from everywhere that you possibly can - both inside your own site and outside
  • There will always be a need for high quality content
  • Find out who the biggest people in your space are, follow them, and then do what they're doing
  • Pinterest is especially valuable because of how much you can recycle your pinned content
