Do We Need to Worry About Keywords Anymore? (EP69)

from Small Business Marketing Sweet Spot · host Barb Davids

I heard someone say SEO is dead. Again. People have been saying this for years. They've also been saying email is dead. For years. Now I'm hearing, keywords don't matter anymore. I call bullshit. Because I've seen clients get traffic on keywords that tools would say there is nobody searching for it. If people are searching using different tools or apps, for example, using perplexity, google search, Instagram, some even say TikTok… do we need to worry about keywords anymore?Enjoy the episode!👉 For all the links and resources mentioned in this episode, check out the supporting blog post here.Stop second-guessing your to-do list and grab the Marketing Energy Matrix to focus on the tasks that actually get you results. 👉 https://compassdigitalstrategies.com/digital-marketing-services/marketing-energy-matrix/🧰 I love me a good digital marketing tool.
