Lately, my “content calendar” looks a lot like baby snuggles, coffee refills, and… not much time for social media. And that’s okay! Because SEO blogging is one of the things working behind the scenes for me. One well-crafted blog post can keep showing up in search results, sending me traffic and leads long after I’ve hit publish. It’s the exact strategy I wish more business owners used, and today we’re talking all about it.

In this episode, I’m bringing you my podcast manager (and blogging expert), Kara Duncan from The Kara Report. Kara specializes in helping creative business owners grow through done-for-you blogging and Pinterest services, and she’s sharing eight underrated SEO blogging strategies that most entrepreneurs are skipping without even realizing it. 

These aren’t the same generic “use keywords” tips you’ve heard a hundred times. Kara goes into the details of where to place those keywords for maximum impact, how to optimize your images so they help you rank and why Pinterest is still a powerful tool for backlinks even if your audience isn’t hanging out there She even shares exactly what you need to do to get your blog showing up in ChatGPT!

This episode is packed with practical advice that’s easy to implement, no matter your blogging experience. And the best part? Once you put these strategies in place, they’ll keep working for you for months and years to come, giving you more time to focus on the things that matter most.
