As the owner of an interior design, staging, organizing, or window treatment business, you've likely had a few thoughts about your SEO. You might have even hired someone to work on it. But what if you haven't been getting increased website traffic after months of paying for that work? Or what if you WERE getting traffic and it suddenly dropped off the face of the earth?

If that describes your situation, your website might be using black hat SEO, and as the owner of the business, you need to get that fixed as soon as possible.

Today on The Kate Show, I'm sharing the difference between black hat and white hat SEO, the dangers of using black hat tactics, and how to know if those tactics were used on your website. Plus, I'll share what you can do to fix or improve your SEO the right way going forward.
