Why brands need organic search
🌱 Organic searches are more likely to convert than paid searches.
🌱 In 2024, YoY brand discovery decreased from 1 out of 3 new website visitors to 1 out of 4 new website visitors when top of funnel content strategy was not a priority in 2023.
🌱 In 2025, nearly half of consumers started using AI tools to search, and those tools pull their answers directly from organic results. If your brand doesn't show up organically, it won't show up in AI search either.
🌱 In 2026, organic search is the foundation AI tools pull from. The more consistently your brand appears across trusted, well-structured organic sources, the more likely ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews will cite you as an authority.
How I work with founders and marketing teams
First, we kick things off
Before our official project kickoff, you'll receive a web brief—a set of questions to get you thinking about strategic goals, marketing goals, existing processes, and competitors. It's lightweight but sets the foundation for measuring success.
After the meeting, discovery research begins. Expect two to four weeks before the next touchpoint.
Then, research and auditing
During SEO discovery, your website gets a 360° assessment — content organization and quality, UX approach, and technical health. If there's a low-hanging fruit task that can drive positive outcomes right away, that gets tackled early on.
Deliverables include:
Keyword research / SERP analysis
Competitive analysis
Technical SEO audit
Content audit
Next, roadmapping and prioritization
In the final phase of discovery, you'll get a blueprint of SEO tasks prioritized by impact versus effort.
Deliverables include:
SEO roadmap
Metadata recommendations
After that, we start creating together
This is where your audience grows. Intent-centered content gets built to earn credibility and trust with Google and LLMs— the kind of content that brings the right people to your site.
Deliverables include:
Content structures + briefs
Content production process documentation
Technical writing support + SME interviews
As we go, monitoring and measuring
Together, we'll define directional measures that align with your goals — so progress always has a clear signal. Once content is in production, data-backed hypotheses guide what gets implemented, tested, tracked, and iterated, with performance visible through a custom dashboard built for your website.
