How should SEO be done in a broader marketing strategy

If you want to know how to do SEO as part of a broader marketing strategy, this article will give you tips such as choosing the right keywords and website structure. Also, it will show you how to make sure your website is ready for a wider audience.

Step 1: Break down your topics into manageable chunks to be found by your target audience

The first step for broader SEO is understanding the searcher's intent. Someone who searches for something on Google knows what they're looking for and we need our content, service, or product offerings to match this search query so that people find us.


Action Steps

Make a list of the products or services you sell and what people will search for to find your business.


For Example; we assisted an accounting firm, but they offer more than bookkeeping and accounting; They also have an array of financial services. So how do you explain all that in one phrase? You don't,  You need to break it down into manageable chunks (as seen below).

Step 2:Turn Your Topics into Keywords

Now that you have a list of topics related to your business, it's time for keyword research. I would recommend using Ubersuggest, or Google trends as a free option. We need to see what phrases people are searching on google and how much traffic each one gets and also compare how difficult it would be to rank the first page.

Step 3: Structure Your Website The Right Way

It's important to understand that both website development and keyword research go hand-in-hand. After developing keyword topics, it's time to create a landing page or blog post for each term, based on the searcher's intent what are they looking for. A product or service, or simply information? This will give you an idea of whether you should build a landing page or a blog post. When Google indexes your site, instead of ranking the site as a whole, it looks at individual pages and whether they are bringing value to the searcher. This is where web development ties into SEO success. Don't try to sell all your services at one go on your home page; think of it as the center of your brand message that introduces what you do, perhaps you can showcase a glimpse of your services, which then links out to all your service pages.


In addition to affecting the look of your website, your design choices can also have an impact on how well your website ranks in search engines.

Some factors that affect SEO include:

- How easy it is for users to navigate and understand your pages

- The speed at which your web pages load

- Is your website mobile friendly

- The clarity of copy on each page
