What would change for you if you viewed your SEO strategy as a transformational change instead of just data-driven analytics?

In today's episode, I'm sharing my thoughts on how SEO fits into our #DoBetterDigital strategy.

Search engine optimization is about more than traffic, keywords, and backlinks - though those things are important.

Great SEO is part of a holistic marketing practice.

It's not enough to tell great stories, or develop a great product, or really care about your customers. We need all of those elements to create a sustainable marketing strategy.

We even need SEO. Because like each of those elements, SEO done right puts people first.

We must stop viewing SEO as tweaks and hacks that generate short-term traffic and sales. Instead, let's see it as a dedicated practice that requires long-term strategy.

Our relationship with our customers ebbs and flows as we experience growth and change on both sides. A great SEO strategy helps us get a clearer picture of that relationship. And that picture helps us to become better business leaders, better digital influencers, and better people.

Great SEO helps us #DoBetterDigital.

So how exactly do we go from analyzing data to putting people first with SEO? Join me in today's episode to find out.
