In this episode of the I Do Wedding Marketing Podcast, I’m sitting down with Taylor Svetlichny of Aligned SEO. If SEO feels like a mysterious code you’ve never cracked, you’re not alone—I’m right there with you! But Taylor breaks it all down in a way that’s approachable, smart, and dare I say... fun?

We dive deep into:

The biggest SEO myths that are holding creative entrepreneurs and wedding pros back

Why simply blogging every week isn’t enough (and how it could actually be hurting your site!)

How to do keyword research that actually works—and why one small tweak in a word can make all the difference

The truth about “near me” searches and how local SEO really works

Tips for optimizing your main pages first before getting buried in blog posts

How to turn your podcast show notes and transcripts into powerful SEO content

And why having a Google Business Profile is non-negotiable in 2025

Taylor also shares her journey from photographer to SEO pro, and why she swears by SEO for building sustainable, high-quality leads—without constantly churning out content.

💡 One of my favorite takeaways? That people are already searching for you online—you just need to help Google find you.

We even touch on creating speaker pages, optimizing for multiple services, and repurposing content like a boss. If you’ve ever wanted to get leads while sipping your morning coffee, this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen in and let me know what your biggest SEO myth was! And if you’re ready to finally make your website work for you, Taylor tells us exactly how we can work with her through her Done-For-You SEO services, monthly blogging packages, and more.
