Helpful content is the king
Avoid using ChatGPT to create content. While it does give some instant results, creating a sustainable ranking is virtually impossible with such a generic content. Create less but helpful content. Delete redundant information from the site.
A project must be reviewed at least a week to identify and fix execution related issues.
A typical checklist to review a project includes the following:
An SEO campaign is a team work. Every member in the team should be aware of their responsibility. At least one team member should be assigned the responsibility to do some random stuff (uniformity of the messaging across the website, call-to-action implementations) required to keep everything on track.
Transparency and regular client interaction is the key to any successful SEO campaign.
