Rocky Mountain Digital Producer Meetup - Organic Search: Doing it Right with Matt Lacuesta

Editor's Notes

  1. SILO NO MORE – the lines have blurred. No more just optimizing title tags and inserting keywords into copy.
  2. • You’re likely to step on toes. While it may be tempting to jump into a new project and start ordering SEO-based code changes or say that it’s SEO’s job to provide the language used in copy development, be aware that there are likely IT and PR departments in the room who think those things are their job. My advice: Before calling their baby ugly, always acknowledge the necessary role of IT to provide a good code base and/or PR to craft the brand’s message — then explain how SEO can enhance, not replace, their work.
