SEO That Actually Makes Sense
You know SEO matters. You just don't know whether you should learn it or hand it off completely.
There are two clear paths forward. Let me show you both so you can choose what works for you.
What SEO Actually Is
(And Why It's Not One-Size-Fits-All)
SEO is how people find your business when they search online. It's not a trick or a checklist. It's a foundation that builds over time.
There's no single "right way" to do it. The right approach depends on your capacity, your budget, and how involved you want to be.
Two Ways to Work Together
SEO Coaching
Best for: DIY learners who want guidance
Your involvement: You implement with my coaching
My role: Teacher, strategist, guide
Investment level: Lower monthly cost
Done-For-You SEO
Best for: Business owners who want it handled
Your involvement: Minimal. Monthly check-ins only
My role: Full execution and management
Investment level: Higher monthly investment

Common Questions About SEO Services
Which option is better?
It depends on your capacity and goals. Coaching is great if you want to understand and control your SEO. Done-for-you is better if you'd rather focus on your actual business.
Can I switch paths later?
Yes. Some clients start with coaching and move to done-for-you as their business grows.
How long does SEO take to work?
Most small businesses see early movement in 3-4 months. Sustainable results build over 6-12 months. This is true for both paths.
Do I need to create a lot of content?
Not necessarily. We work with what you have first, then decide if content creation makes sense.
SEO Done Right
SEO doesn't live in isolation. I look at your whole digital ecosystem - your website structure, content, local signals, and how everything works together. This holistic approach means we're strengthening your foundation, not just chasing rankings.
