I usually try to focus on solid advice and real world case studies meant to be helpful to business owners, marketing executives, and even other marketers. But today I want to share what search engine optimization (SEO) failure looks like.
My hope is that some of you will see this story and avoid making the same kinds of mistakes.

Ever get the sneaking suspicion your website isn’t built as well as it could be? Or wonder why you aren’t getting more visits from Google or Bing than you used to? Maybe you just want to double check if that SEO specialist you’ve been paying is worth the money?
When you want to know how well your business website is really performing over time, nothing beats a good review of your analytics package.
You’ve probably noticed a small Lightning Bolt icon that’s been showing up all over the web. You see it in search results and social media posts as well, popping up on smartphones and tablets as a tiny-but-noticeable detail in the content you view.
Negative Google reviews can be extremely tricky, especially during this time of the year.
This is the second article in our three-part series about how to do a site-wide update without demolishing your search ranking. We’ve previously discussed how to excel when launching a comprehensive redesign; in this post, we’d like to tell you how to successfully migrate your site to HTTPS.
Like a lot of marketers, you keep an eye on your analytics and user flows. And, you’ve probably spotted some inefficiencies in your site. So you might be itching to start a redesign project or you might even be in the middle of an overhaul. Let’s do it right.
