The Course

Step One – Keyword Research

This is understanding what your Ideal Clients are typing into Google to find businesses like yours.

We’re aiming for a list of words/phrases that you have a chance to rank for and which have search volume.

I’ll show how to come up keywords, how to check the competitiveness and how to see the search volume

Module Two – Writing Relevant Content

You will only rank highly on Google if you’re writing content that it thinks is relevant for the keywords you’re trying to rank for.

In this module we’ll talk about how to write content that Google considers relevant.  And how to demonstrate to Google what the page is about.

 

Module Three – Backlinks

Google uses backlinks as a sign of trust/authority.  Getting backlinks from as many good websites as you can is key to ranking more highly, especially for more competitive keywords.

In this module we’ll talk about backlinks, including the kind of backlinks you want and how to get them.

Module Four – What Else?

In this module we’re going to make sure Google can find our website pages and that we have everything set up correctly.

No technical knowledge is required!

Module Five – Local Search

 In this module we’re going to get into Google My Business and make sure you’re all set up to get found locally on the map

Module Six – Wrap Up

In this module we’ll be putting together your SEO plan, covering how to track your SEO and refining your plan
