  • How To Target Multiple Cities Without Hurting Your SEO

    Episode #9 - What is the Best Local SEO Strategy To Target Multiple Cities Without Hurting Your Rankings?

    I go into detail about the pros and cons of city pages and whether or not they are good for SEO.

    They are good for your SEO if you do them correctly.

    They aren't so good if you have a terrible strategy.

    Make sure your city pages are unique. They must address the city and the unique features of that city that can be relevant to your niche.

    Add internal linking the right way. Make sure you link to your new location pages from other areas of the site that are relevant to that specific service. 

    Do not just copy and past your location page content across multiple cities. They need to serve your readers and provide them with some value.

  • E-commerce SEO: Pros and Cons

    Episode #6 - The Pros and Cons of SEO for e-commerce sites.

    The pros of SEO

    • Durable: when you optimize your site, you can reap the benefits for months and years to come. Your traffic will not stop, if you optimize your sites properly.
    • Keyword opportunities are limitless: you have an infinite number of pages that you can create. So the more pages you have, the more opportunities your site will show up for more keywords.
    • The cons of SEO

      • Hyper competitive: there are millions of other sites that are trying to rank on the first page.
      • An increasing number of  “SERP features” in Google. This makes it harder to capture traffic from Google, people do not need to click on to your site to find an answer. People can find answers directly on the Google search page.
      • Product page management can be hard. It's important to have a good process in place when managing your product pages.

      • What is the best niche to serve as an INFP?

        Episode #5 - How to decide which niche to serve as an INFP.

        I couldn't find local businesses that fit well under the INFP umbrella. So what I decided to do was try focusing on e-commerce sites that sell products that I find interesting. I decided to look for meditation supply stores. I think these eCommerce stores might have people that jive well with INFPs. So I found over 20 sites in the meditation supply niche that I think I can serve. So I am going to reach out to them and ask if they need my SEO and Digital Marketing services.

        I also look at other personality types that fit will with INFPs, but same issue, I couldn't find local businesses.

        I dug a little bit deeper and other personality types that were less compatible, but still compatible to some extent, and I found some local businesses. They are lawyers, chiropractors, fitness trainers, and skincare specialists. These fields are extremely competitive, so I am not 100% sure if these will be right for me.

      • What Niche To Choose For Ultimate Happiness

        Episode #4 - How to choose the best niche to serve in your business and be happy doing it.

        Last night, I started to re-think my whole target niche for my business. It all started when I got back an email from an alternative energy company lecturing me about only paying on commissions. It hit me the wrong way. I have never felt like this before. So I decided to think about possibly trying out a different niche.

        I found this website that talks about INFP careers that I think I will use to brainstorm other niches that I can potentially serve. This is a great page if you want to learn about the best jobs for INFPs. So check it out here: https://www.truity.com/personality-type/INFP/careers

        In my brainstorming session, I came across another article that really hit home. It's all about niche selection. https://yaro.blog/12530/what-is-the-first-question-to-ask-yourself-when-choosing-a-niche/

        The part of the article goes like this:

        The older you are, the better you know yourself.

        This is why for younger people or any person embarking on an unknown path, it is important you do two things –

        1. Research Through Live Testing: You learn about yourself and develop skills via implementation. Do things and you will see what comes easily to you, what you struggle with, what works, what doesn’t, what excites you and what bores you.
        2. Learn From Your Results: This point is vital. Make sure as you test you learn from your results and do not repeat ineffective patterns. If you discover you are not good at something, do not do it. If you learn a certain business model is not right for you, don’t start your next business using the same model.

          8. How I Used "Repetition" To Get Any Job I Wanted

            Episode #2 - Why Is Repetition Important? And How I used "repetition" to get ANY job I wanted.

            In this episode, you will learn about one of my favorite coaches: Penelope Trunk.

            I listened to her material constantly when I was job hunting. You will learn why repetition is important and how I was able to get so much information every time I listened to her videos.

            I realized that spaced repetition is what you need to get all of the information that someone is trying to convey.

            Here is the course I took and listen to 6 times all the way through https://www.quistic.com/seminar/get-your-dream-job-now

            Here is her blog: https://penelopetrunk.com/

            Listening to Penelope's courses has literally changed my life.
