Matt and Ashley tackle the telltale signs that your SEO company is holding back your business and what you should look for in a new partner. They discuss the core of search engine optimization (SEO), emphasizing that it's no longer just about rankings and backlinks. Have you ever asked these questions? What's the difference between activity and results in SEO reporting? How much of your reports do you understand? How many reported charts or metrics are simply irrelevant to your day-to-day marketing? Are you getting customized reports tied to your specific business goals? It comes down to the critical role of analytics and conversion optimization in modern SEO strategies. SEO companies that only focus on rankings without evaluating how users behave on your site are missing a huge part of the digital marketing equation.

If your agency isn’t collaborating with other areas of your marketing strategy, you might not be getting the full value from their services. Tune in to learn the red flags, key questions to ask, and how to ensure that your SEO agency is delivering meaningful results that align with your long-term business goals.

    AI, SEO and Google's Big Leak

    A few months after Google's "big leak," Matt and guest Ashley Jones discuss the fallout and conclusions. Needless to say there are some surprises, but for many in the SEO community - it is business as usual. It is still all about marketing your business - beyond Google. With Ashley, the discussion always comes back to content. Whether it’s link building or content creation, the emphasis should be on quality. Unique, well-thought-out content resonates more with users and achieves better SEO results than mass-produced, mediocre content – an important distinction in the age of AI. Good writing is born of good thinking. Ashley reminds us that while tools like SEO and AI are indispensable, they should never replace the unique touch and depth humans bring to content creation.
