Primer plano de un informe de marketing digital en Google Analytics ejecutándose en un PC.

I’ve been doing SEO for 10+ years, and I’ve heard “SEO is dead” after almost every major Google update. AI is the loudest version yet. The worry makes sense. Pew Research Center found that when an AI summary appears, users click a traditional result in just 8% of visits, compared with 15% when it doesn’t. […]

SEO for Startups: The 12-Month Plan I’d Run From Day One

Person analyzing data charts on laptop for effective B2B blog strategy and content conversion optimization.

Publishing without a strategy behind it leaves you with a pile of posts and nothing to show for them. Traffic stays flat, leads never arrive, and eventually the blog gets abandoned.

B2B Keyword Research: The System I Use to Find Leads

Ecommerce SEO Audit: The Step-by-Step System I Run for My Own Stores

The first step in my 90-day SEO cheat sheet is a 2-hour SEO audit. Not a keyword, not a content calendar. You can’t fix what you haven’t measured. I learned it the hard way on a large ecommerce catalog, where small problems stay invisible right up until they add up. These days, my team and […]
