    Let's talk about how SEO = branding.

    Join us for a conversation about the integration of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and branding.

    Sign Up For Our three-day challenge.

    The challenge is designed to help businesses optimize their websites and improve their branding efforts.

    Join as a FOUNDING MEMBER of the SEO SQUAD.

    Host Crystal Waddell discusses the profound link between SEO and branding, explaining that SEO is how the internet describes your business while offline. 

    Joined by her friend and business partner, Rachael Spiewak, they discuss their upcoming three-day challenge, which has helped lead to the launch of an SEO membership, the 'SEO Squad.' 

    This membership enables business owners to better optimize their websites and features different tiers to accommodate individuals at differing points in their entrepreneurial journey. 

    A key focus of this episode is the power of niche branding and the importance of being 'niche famous.' Shout out to Tom Earl for that phrase!

  • When SEO Works: How to Maintain a Strategic Balance In Life

    How often do you reflect on the state of your business? I start every year with a SWOT to determine strategic priorities. 

    This episode walks through my monthly reflection, of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in my business. 

    Key Takeaways

    • Crystal discusses strengths of her business, including successful sessions with the founding members of her SEO squad, covering topics such as Google business profiles and other SEO-related aspects. She also mentions successful sales in January from her business, Collage and Wood.
    • Crystal identifies weaknesses including experiencing overwhelm and considering hiring a designer due to the volume of work. She also mentions a mishap with the postal service.
    • Opportunities are identified in the form of launching a free SEO challenge at the end of February, returning to handwritten thank you notes, and considering a QR code to encourage customer reviews. Crystal also highlights the opportunity to improve customer communication about late deliveries.
    • Threats to her business include time constraints and health issues, with her husband having been sick. She also mentions the challenge of managing her son's screen time.
    • Crystal discusses the importance of evaluating business performance regularly, turning weaknesses into opportunities, and mitigating threats. She ends with a story highlighting the importance of recognizing what one already has instead of constantly pursuing more.

  • The Intersection Of SEO and User Experience with Ola King

    Join me for a deep conversation with Ola King, who shares his intriguing journey – from being a popular [and underage!] local DJ and music producer to making an impact in the SEO industry.

    Below is a summary of the main topics discussed:

    • Ola talks about his experience of moving from Nigeria to Canada at a young age, including the challenges he faced adapting to a new environment.
    • Ola shares details about his early career in music production, his transition into SEO, and the reasons behind the launch of his own company.
    • As a user researcher at Moz, Ola highlights the significance of understanding customers and offers unique insights on how to future-proof SEO by focusing on providing unique information and customer insights.
    • The conversation pivots to the true meaning of design thinking, debunking common misconceptions. They underline that design thinking is not just about art or aesthetics, but how things work, how to empathize with users, and putting this empathy into the design process.
    • Ola explains his views on the misunderstanding of SEO - it's not about optimizing for search engines, but enhancing the user's experience by understanding their intent and context. 
    • The importance of diversity in the tech industry is discussed, with Ola sharing his experiences and the benefits of finding common ground for a more inclusive and welcoming environment.

    For more insights from Ola King, you can reach out to him through his website, LinkedIn,  or X.

  • Boosting Business: SEO Success, Sales Surges & an SEO Squad

    We're celebrating like crazy because our Shopify CollageandWood.com sales have jumped up by 80% compared to last year - all thanks to our SEO strategy. 

    Now, onto the super exciting part - we had our third meeting for the SEO Squad. Imagine a group of go-getter entrepreneurs, just like us, all pumped up to master SEO. Sounds great, right? 

    We're officially launching next month and you can hop on board the challenge at threedaychallenge.com/seo. If you join now, you can lock in a cool $20/month rate. 

    We also took a look at where our traffic is coming from. Pinterest has been our star off page SEO driver, bringing in over 3,000 visitors this month alone. 

    And our blog? It's been on fire with organic search sending us 8.8 thousand visitors this month. 

    Oh, and get this, we had a $1000 sales day! Can you believe it?

    Also Honeybook confirmed what Kris Daria told us on Wednesday about the email changes coming February 1, 2024: always use a branded domain email if possible. 

    So, that's the scoop from our end. Here's to another week of hustling, learning, and smashing goals!

  • Unleashing SEO Magic: Welcome to Follow Through Fridays!

    Crystal Waddell, the host of the Simple and Smart SEO show podcast, shared some insights she had from implementing new strategies on her senior night gift store website.

    Based on information from Matt Diamante and Andrew Holland, she optimized her website's keywords and started a paid e-book as her first digital product.

    We've got a new format! Follow Through Fridays!

    • Crystal introduced a new format where she covers lessons, implementations, and inspirations from her weekly experiences.
    • Something I learned, something that I implemented and something that inspired me.

    Let's talk search optimization:

    • Crystal updated her collections page with relevant keywords targeted towards sports.
    • She'll keep checking on the changes made to see how effective they are and provide updates later.

    "Traffic is vanity, profit is sanity." - Andrew Holland

    • My discussion with Andrew Holland made Crystal realize a lot of traffic with no conversion isn't as useful as targeted site traffic.
    • This realization inspired her to create a senior night planning guide ebook priced at about $7
    • Her first digital product at collageandwood.com!
