How Audience Research Gave Me a Competitive Edge — And Helped Me Earn Respect From Customers
Amanda NatividadAug 29
Here’s a confession: I’ve never really understood the whole “SEO-driven content strategy” thing. I mean, yeah, I understood it on an intellectual level. Step 1, go after high-volume keywords. Step 2, rank higher for the Google gods. Step 3, profit. Or something like that. But no one ever becomes a …
