"Search Engine Optimization"



This is an intermediate class that provides expert insights and assistance in honing in on SEO skills to drive more traffic to your business.

In this session, business owners will delve into search engine optimization, tagging, and keywords - all of which are fundamental to driving business growth in the digital age.

SEO helps small businesses improve their online visibility by optimizing their websites to rank higher in search engine results. It’s a cost-effective way to attract local customers and build credibility without ongoing ad spend. By enhancing user experience and targeting relevant keywords, small businesses can compete with larger companies and increase website traffic. SEO is essential for driving growth and staying competitive in the digital marketplace.

Who should register:

• Business owners with existing social media platforms.
• Business owners who want to learn actionable ways to drive traffic to their digital marketing.
• Business owners who feel their current attempts at marketing fall short.
