    Top Questions Business Owners Ask Before Hiring SEO Specialists or SEO Agencies with Favour Obasi-ike
    May 21 2025
    🔍 Mastering SEO with Essential QuestionsThis Clubhouse audio recording, focusing on "Top questions business owners ask SEO specialists," provides guidance on how businesses can find and evaluate SEO specialists. I stress the importance of a well-structured website as a foundational asset before pursuing SEO. Key topics covered include the need to ask specialists about their research methods, their technical SEO expertise, their marketing tools (or "stack"), and past project results, emphasizing that ethical practices and building trust are crucial for long-term success in the evolving digital landscape, which is influenced by AI and the increasing importance of social commerce. I highlight three critical signals for online visibility: user, domain, and social.Why is having a website the first step for a business owner considering SEO?A website serves as the foundational "house" or "property" for your online business presence. Before investing in SEO, which focuses on improving your visibility in search results, you need a solid structure for people to find and engage with. Just as you wouldn't build a house on sinking sand, your online efforts require a stable and well-built website as the core asset. It's the central hub where all other marketing activities, like social media links or ads, direct traffic.How should a business owner evaluate an SEO specialist's approach to keyword research?When questioning an SEO specialist about keyword research, a business owner should focus on understanding their Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). The specialist should be able to articulate how they identify the keywords most relevant to your business and target audience.Why is it important to ask an SEO specialist about their experience with specific website platforms and industries?Just as specialists exist in other fields (like mechanics or dentists), SEO specialists often have areas of focus. Asking about their experience with the specific website platform your business uses (e.g., WordPress, Shopify, Squarespace, Wix) is vital because different platforms have unique technical aspects that affect SEO. Similarly, asking about their experience in your industry can indicate whether they understand the specific competitive landscape, target audience behaviors, and relevant keywords within your niche.What is technical SEO and why should a business owner prioritize it when evaluating a specialist?Technical SEO refers to the underlying technical aspects of a website that impact its visibility and performance in search engines. This includes factors like site speed, mobile-friendliness, crawlability, indexing, and site structure. A specialist's knowledge of technical SEO is crucial because even with great content, if the website has technical issues, it won't be effectively read and ranked by search engines.How can a business owner gauge an SEO specialist's ability to track progress and provide results?A competent SEO specialist should be able to provide evidence of their past work and demonstrate how they measure progress. This can be done through case studies, reports from platforms like Google Search Console or analytics tools, and potentially client testimonials or referrals. The ability to show "before and after" scenarios for website performance is a strong indicator of their capability.More Resources ⬇️Need SEO services?>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our club community for exclusive information 📥⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Book a SEO Discovery Call>> Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Schedule Paid Strategy SEO Meeting>> Visit Official Website⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Connect with Favour Obasi-ike on LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Invest in Energea Solar Energy (Sign Up & Earn $50)⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Start 14-Day Trial with Flodesk (Save 50% This Year)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Save $100s on flights, hotels & car rentals with eDreams

  • Earned Media Opportunities for Search Engine Optimization and Public Relations with Favour Obasi-ike

    Earned Media Opportunities for Search Engine Optimization and Public Relations with Favour Obasi-ike
    May 7 2025
    Earned media opportunities for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and PR (Public Relations), specifically discussing how to create "power pages" on your website is in this episode.Focusing on the importance of having a strong online presence to leverage media features effectively, emphasizing that sending traffic to your own website first is crucial for building authority and gaining brand equity. We touched on using tools like Ahrefs to check domain authority, analyzing a platform's social media presence, and the strategic advantages of using platforms for Pinterest SEO for long-term visibility and traffic generation due to its unique features and user behavior. The discussion also explores the increasing role of AI tools in content creation and marketing strategies.FAQs on Earned Media Opportunities for SEO and PR1. What are earned media opportunities and why are they important for businesses?Earned media refers to publicity gained through promotional efforts other than paid advertising, essentially media exposure that is "earned" through relationships, content creation, and engagement. These opportunities are crucial for businesses because they can significantly boost your search engine optimization (SEO) and public relations (PR) efforts. By being featured on external platforms like radio, TV, podcasts, magazines, or websites, you gain exposure to new audiences and build brand authority. This exposure, especially when linked back to your website, creates "power pages" – pages on your site that receive significant traffic and engagement. This organic traffic and external validation contribute to stronger online presence and brand equity, which are vital for long-term business growth.2. How can I leverage earned media opportunities to benefit my website's SEO?To effectively leverage earned media for SEO, it's essential to ensure that any features or mentions on external platforms directly link back to your website. Instead of directing people straight to the platform where you were featured, guide them to your website first. On your website, you can have a dedicated page (a "power page") that highlights your earned media appearances. This serves as the "first landing" for visitors, establishing your authority and allowing them to explore your content and offerings before clicking through to the external source for more context. This strategy drives valuable organic traffic to your site and builds essential backlinks, which are votes of confidence from other websites that improve your search ranking.3. What is domain authority and why is it important when considering earned media opportunities?Domain authority is a search engine ranking score that predicts how likely a website is to rank in search engine results pages (SERPs). When considering earned media opportunities, it is crucial to check the domain authority of the platform offering the feature. A high domain authority indicates that the platform is credible and trusted by search engines. Getting featured on a website with a high domain authority means that the backlink you receive carries significant weight, positively impacting your own website's domain authority and overall SEO performance. You can use tools like Ahrefs to check the domain authority of both potential media partners and your own website.P.S. We are one episode away from 500 episodes!

  • SEO Masterclass: Breaking Down Keyword Optimization with Favour Obasi-ike

    SEO Masterclass: Breaking Down Keyword Optimization with Favour Obasi-ike
    May 3 2025
    Decoding Digital Visibility Through KeywordsThis discussion centers on the importance of keywords in online visibility and search engine optimization (SEO) emphasizing that keywords are the "keys" people use to find information, products, and services online, comparing them to keys for a car or house. The conversation highlights the need for businesses to identify and strategically utilize relevant keywords to attract their ideal audience.I explained informational keywords and suggested creating content like articles or FAQs to answer potential customer queries, noting that a blog's lifespan is approximately 24 months and should be updated. Finally, the discussion touches on the technical aspects of keyword implementation on websites and the importance of a functional site map for search engine discoverability.SEO Keyword Optimization: A Beginner's GuideWhat are keywords in the context of SEO?Keywords are the specific words or phrases that people type into search engines like Google when they are looking for information, products, or services. Think of them as the "keys" people use to unlock the door to finding your website or content online. For businesses, these keywords represent what people are searching for that relates to their offerings.Why are keywords so important for online visibility?Keywords are fundamental to being found online. When someone searches using a specific keyword, search engines try to match that query with relevant content. If your website or content is optimized with the right keywords that your target audience is using, you increase the chances of appearing in their search results. This is crucial for driving traffic, generating leads, and ultimately, achieving business goals.How can I start thinking about keywords for my business?A key starting point is to consider what your ideal clients would type into a search engine to find a business like yours. Ask yourself: What do you do? Who do you serve? How do you help them? The answers to these questions will help you identify the initial keywords people might use to search for your products or services.What are the different types of keywords, and why do they matter?While there are subsets, the primary types of keywords relate to user intent. Informational keywords are used when someone is looking for information (e.g., "how to tie a tie"). Navigational keywords are used to find a specific website or brand. Commercial keywords are used when someone is researching products or services with the intent to buy, and transactional keywords are used when someone is ready to make a purchase (e.g., "buy air fryer online"). Understanding these types helps you tailor your content to match the user's stage in their search journey.How should I use keywords on my website?Keywords should be strategically placed on your website, not just on the main pages but throughout. Key areas include the settings of each page, such as the page title, description, and URL. These are crucial clues you provide to search engines about the content of your pages. Think of each keyword as an access point or a door to your content.Hope you learn something new from this episode!

  • Audio Advertising 🎙️ vs Video Advertising 🎥 with Favour Obasi-ike

    Audio Advertising 🎙️ vs Video Advertising 🎥 with Favour Obasi-ike
    May 1 2025

    This seo guides session focuses on audio advertising versus video advertising highlighting the importance of strategic ad placement and targeting over the sheer amount of money spent, emphasizing that research and data analysis are crucial for success.

    P.S. Vibe's web link 🔗 has an affiliate link as a Vibe partner.

    Examples of platforms like Spotify Ads and Vibe.co are mentioned for implementing audio and video ads, while the discussion also touches on the significance of a strong online presence through websites and SEO to direct traffic effectively.

    Ultimately, the content stresses the need for understanding your audience and delivering value through advertising to build trust and connection.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Audio and Video Advertising

    What is the core difference between audio and video advertising, and how do they impact consumption?

    The primary difference lies in how the audience consumes the content. Video advertising relies on both visual and auditory elements, and viewers may not always be in a position to watch the full ad, potentially missing crucial visual information. Audio advertising, on the other hand, is consumed solely through listening, making it more suitable for situations where the audience is engaged in other activities, such as driving, working out, or doing chores. Both formats, when done well, can have a significant impact on reaching and resonating with an audience.

    How can businesses effectively use small daily advertising budgets, like $2 a day, to gain insights?

    Small daily budgets, even as low as a dollar per platform, can be highly effective not for direct sales conversions but for gaining traffic intelligence and understanding audience behavior. By targeting specific geographic areas (like zip codes) and niche interests, businesses can collect valuable data on who is engaging with their ads, where they are located, and what their interests are. This data allows for more precise retargeting and informs future advertising strategies. The focus shifts from the amount spent to the effectiveness of the spending.

    What are the key data points businesses should analyze when running online ads on platforms like Facebook and Instagram?

    When running ads on platforms like Facebook and Instagram, businesses should analyze four key segments: performance, demographics, placements, and locations. Performance indicates how well the ad is doing in terms of engagement and reach. Demographics help understand the characteristics of the audience interacting with the ad. Placements show where the ad is being displayed (e.g., feed, stories). Locations provide geographic data on where the audience is located. Analyzing these specific details helps ensure the ad is reaching the right audience in the right places for optimal results.

  • How Do Backlinks Work for Link 🔗 Feed Optimization with SEO? 🔍 A Conversation with Favour Obasi-ike 📈

    How Do Backlinks Work for Link 🔗 Feed Optimization with SEO? 🔍 A Conversation with Favour Obasi-ike 📈
    Apr 28 2025

    🔗 Backlinks: SEO Power and Feed Optimization in 2025

    This topic focuses on the strategic importance of backlinks for search engine optimization (SEO) emphasizing that backlinks act as "votes" for a website, boosting its credibility and visibility to search engines like Google.

    Ethical "white hat" SEO practices for earning backlinks are advocated over manipulative "black hat" methods. The conversation explores various tactics for acquiring quality backlinks, including creating valuable content like blog articles and podcast mentions that naturally attract links.

    The speaker also differentiates between "do follow" links, which pass on SEO value, and "no follow" links, which do not.

    Ultimately, the discussion highlights how a strong backlink profile, akin to a positive credit score, can significantly enhance a website's ranking and long-term online success.


    Frequently Asked Questions on Backlinks and SEO

    1. What are backlinks and why are they important for SEO? Backlinks are links from one website to another. Think of them as "votes" of confidence. When another website links to yours, it signals to search engines like Google that your content is valuable, credible, and worth recommending. The more high-quality backlinks you have from reputable sources, the higher your website is likely to rank in search engine results pages (SERPs), leading to increased visibility and organic traffic. This is a crucial aspect of "search everywhere optimization," going beyond just traditional search engines.

    2. What is the difference between "white hat" and "black hat" SEO in the context of backlinks?

    "White hat" SEO refers to ethical and fair practices for earning backlinks, such as creating valuable content that others naturally want to link to, and engaging in legitimate outreach. "Black hat" SEO involves manipulative tactics like buying backlinks or participating in link farms, which aim to game the system. While black hat tactics might offer short-term gains, they risk severe penalties from search engines, including demotion or even removal from search results after algorithm updates. Building backlinks through credible, "white hat" methods ensures long-term sustainability and avoids these risks.

    3. What is the difference between "do follow" and "no follow" backlinks, and when should each be used?

    A "do follow" backlink passes on "link equity" or "SEO power" from the linking site to the linked site. This signals to search engines that the linking site endorses the content of the linked site, contributing to the latter's ranking potential. A "no follow" backlink, on the other hand, does not pass on this link equity. It includes a rel="nofollow" tag that tells search engines not to count this link as an endorsement for ranking purposes.

    When to use them:

    • Do Follow: Use these when you genuinely want to endorse and share SEO value with a credible and relevant external resource. This can be when you are citing sources, recommending valuable tools, or partnering with other trustworthy websites.
    • No Follow: Use these for links where you don't necessarily want to vouch for the linked content for ranking purposes. This often includes:
    • Links in paid advertisements or sponsored content.


    A balanced mix of both types of links in your backlink profile can appear more natural to search engines. Enjoy this episode!
