The Results
Initial Growth and Lead Generation
The initial website traffic was primarily driven by writing new blogs. I was able to grow my website traffic from 0 to thousands of impressions per month. However, you’ll see from the PINK line that I was not receiving any leads from SEO.
In June 2024 I started optimizing my money pages and my overall website. Without producing a single blog, my traffic increased about 30%! And then, shortly after (about three months), I began receiving consistent leads from Google. Within a matter of weeks, I was booked out through the end of the year!
Current Rankings
After about 4 months of SEO optimization, my website is now ranking on the top page for dozens of “money making” keywords. I was also able to get my Google My Business profile to rank in the top 3 of the “map” section, which receives about 50% of the clicks on a local search.
Before SEO Optimization - May 2024
When I started, I was not ranking for any money keywords.
After SEO Optimization - October 2024
After doing 3 months of SEO optimization, I’m now ranking on the top page, and top position, for dozens of money keywords.
Q1 2025 Update - 75% increase in leads!
SEO marketing isn’t just about getting more traffic and clicks—it is about growing your business. If your SEO efforts aren’t converting into leads, it’s not going to move the revenue-needle in your business.
After implementing monthly SEO optimization on my Squarespace website for about 6 months, 75% of my inbound leads were coming from Google. This increase in leads helped me double my monthly revenue.
