Episode 10 Where do keywords come from?
In this nine minutes, I explore the mystery of a list of keywords. As an SEO, I’ll be honest, I marvel (still) that business owners don’t get it.
In this episode, there is a professional who got someone to “do their seo” but was distrustful of a list of search terms. Is she being taken advantage of?
There’s so much to address on BOTH sides – for not only the business owner AND the SEO.
