Meet the Mentor: Alyson Shane

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the strategy of setting up your website so it earns as much “free” traffic from search engines like Google as possible. By optimizing for SEO, you can increase organic (unpaid) traffic to your website, and help make sure that the visitors arriving on your page are the people who are looking to work with or buy from you. Join us on November 7 for Arts Fundamentals: SEO and Google Analytics to learn about the nine things you need to know about SEO, including: Search + SERP, Mobile’s rising role in SEO, search intent + the SEO funnel, ranking factors, smart link-building strategies, the key to keywords, titles, tags + descriptions, site indexing, and how to give Google what it wants.
