    SEO for Voice Over: 7 Strategies to Improve Your RANK

    So recently a big healthcare advertising agency reached out to me through my website and handed me a great non-broadcast project for a massive pharmaceutical company. They handed me the project, no audition necessary.  And there are more jobs on the way. It looks like, fingers crossed, they’re going to be a great partner and a recurring client. So how did I get this primo client, you might ask. Did I market to them for months with snappy content and radically consistent follow up? Plot twist! No! They found me using…. Google. Heard of it? They searched for medical narrators, found me, and dumped a bag of money on my doorstep. The fact is your dream client is searching online right now for someone with your exact skills. Maybe they need a voice actor who can crush their e-learning project. They type a few words into Google. Boom—pages of results. But where are you? Not page one. Not page two. You’re somewhere way down in the witness protection program of search results where no one ever sees or hears you. That’s why SEO matters. SEO is Search Engine Optimization. It’s about showing up where your clients are already looking.  SEO isn’t just for Fortune 500 companies with teams of search nerds in dark rooms optimizing algorithms. It’s for you, the scrappy creative professional, the solopreneur making shit happen. But you don’t need to spend hours every day on SEO or hire a full-time expert. With just an hour or two a week and a few smart strategies, you can start climbing in the Google rankings. And at the end, I’ll show you my results after concentrating on SEO for less than a year. So, let’s talk about the things you can do—simple, approachable strategies that even the busiest freelancer can tackle.

    The REAL PROBLEM with Voice Over - NOT What You Think!

    The current state of the voice over business is not the problem. Generative AI, the pay-to-plays, the glut of talent, the seemingly endless string of strikes… none of that is the reason you’re not succeeding in voice over. Today, I’m talking to me as much as I’m talking to you. You think everyone else, especially coaches have it all together all the time and I’m here to tell you I don’t always have it all together. No one does. Today is a pep talk for both of us.  _____________________________ ▶️ Watch this video next: https://youtu.be/IEMzAw-ad30?si=cvk2TsqXaF-pifjA SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@vo-pro?sub_confirmation=1 The VO Freedom Master Plan: https://vopro.pro/vo-freedom-master-plan The VO Pro Community: https://vopro.app Use code You15Tube for 15% off of your membership for life.
