i talk to founders every week who say "we're doing seo."

then i ask: what keywords do you currently rank for?

silence.

most founders have no idea. they write blog posts, share them on social media, and hope for the best. that's not SEO. that's publishing and praying.

here's the thing. you might already be ranking for keywords you don't even know about. maybe you're sitting on page 2 for something and one small optimization could push you to page 1.

but you'll never know if you never check.

and on the flip side, you might be ranking for absolutely nothing.

which means whatever you've been doing isn't working and you need to change your approach before wasting more time.

what you should actually know:

→ which keywords your site currently ranks for

→ what position you're at for each one

→ which ones are close to page 1 (page 2-3 = low hanging fruit)

→ which ones aren't worth chasing based on your domain rating.

and when you do write content, most founders get this wrong too:

→ no internal links connecting your pages. google uses internal links to understand your site structure and pass authority between pages.

→ no citations or sources. google rewards content that references real data and authoritative sources.

→ no images or media. walls of text get skipped by readers and google notices the high bounce rate.

→ ignoring E-E-A-T (experience, expertise, authoritativeness, trustworthiness). google wants to see that a real person with real knowledge wrote the content.

→ publishing once and disappearing. consistency matters. one article per week beats ten in one month then silence for three months.

start by knowing where you stand.
