ACTION STEPS:

MARK:  Action Steps

  • Don’t change what you are doing from a content and SEO perspective if you follow the approaches we have talked about – which is to create content with the user in mind and create content in a way that provides expertise, authority, and trust signals to Google.

  • If you aren’t doing Google paid ads for search ads, you may want to look into starting.  Talk to your agency or find one, as running Google ads on your own can be costly if you make mistakes.
