  • Simplify SEO, aka Easy Peasy Search Engine Optimization EP 204

    You’d never create a piece of content only to bury it in the sand on purpose.

    You created it to GET MORE VISIBLE. Establish your expertise & authority. To help your audience!

    If no one can find it, writing it was a waste of your time.

    This is why being search-able is VITAL, and why being FOUND is an important part of your content strategy.

    Whether you’re blogging, podcasting, using YouTube, Pinterest, or any social platform –

    If you’re not searchable, no one can find you.

    This is a pretty straightforward part of your content strategy:

    You optimize your search-ability so your Exact-Right Audience can find you with ease!

    But (f you're anything like me), SEO feels…Blech. Gah. Ugggg.

    It's "too technical." It feels…hard. Complicated.

    You might think, “Bah Humbug. I'm already so far behind with this, so screw it. I can’t catch up. I’ll just keep ignoring it.”

    Heh heh - That’s how I felt before interviewing the wonderful Meg Casebolt!

    Meg’s the founder of Love At First Search, an agency that has ONE SINGULAR FOCUS:

    Helping online businesses GET FOUND in search results (like Google, YouTube & iTunes) & turn those new peeps into leads, subscribers and sales.

    Now, this podcast is called Content Creation Made EASY – so of course there was zero chance I was gonna bring you an SEO expert who made it complicated!

    Meg is not only a freakin’ delight to listen to, she turns Scary SEO into SIMPLE SEO…

    Listen in for realistic, do-able, worthwhile ways you can make SEO part of your content strategy, without feeling like you have a rock on your chest!!
