SEO Essentials: How to Get More Traffic From Google to Your Content

Learn how to gain traffic to your content from people searching on the internet.

We'll go into what SEO actually is, how Google and YouTube decide what content to show people searching, how you can use these things to gain regular traffic to your site or YouTube channel, what exactly you need to do to your content to make sure it's SEO optimized and you gain the most potential traffic you can (and not just make something that flashes in the pan and is gone), show you how SEO research can help you decide what content to potentially do in the first place, and lastly I'll even walk you through the entire SEO process for an article and a YouTube video so you can feel comfortable when you need to do the same.
