All right, everybody, welcome back to the podcast. Thanks for tuning in. Of course, this is the show where we help you grow a six, seven or eight figure location independent business.

One of the ways we need to do that is by top of funnel marketing.

In fact, probably for most of us, our biggest channel is SEO.

That's changing a lot.

We're going to discuss how we can leverage those changes to our advantage in today's episode.

So I've invited an expert on the show to discuss five

strategies for getting more organic leads via SEO in 2025. So how can we adjust and leverage

Google's changes to benefit our businesses? Along the way, we'll discuss some undervalued

ways to get more organic traffic for your brand and how our guest founded a popular

private community for SEO. So everybody's talking community. He's done it. He'll share some thoughts

on that. And also the thought process behind his highly profitable one channel, one offer,

business model. So to do all that, let me introduce you to Sean Markey. He is the founder of ranks.com. He writes one of my favorite must read newsletters. You can subscribe at ranks.com slash newsletter. And also he's the co-founder of the advise SEO community. So he's on the front lines of all these SEO changes happening in 2025. So without further ado,

let me introduce our guest, Sean Markey. Can you let us know what it is you do? How do you

make money on the internet? I've done SEO stuff since around 2011. I really went into my whole

story on the last episode I was on. So I won't go at that

link there. But these days, I have an SEO community. I co-own called Advise. And I do what I call

acquisition SEO, which is where I help other companies find and acquire websites that will

help them increase their traffic, increase the keywords there, potential audiences, or find

digital assets like subreddits, podcast newsletters that they could use to help grow their bottom line.

Now, we talk a lot off the podcast. You write a great newsletter, which I read every version.

The reason you're on the show today is because you are just always out there tinkering,

like playing around on the web, figuring out stuff that's working. Let's set the table a little bit.
