Hey Savvy nation!

After a full year of daily posts about SEO, I've gathered some invaluable insights.

Here are 11 key lessons I learned from this journey:

#1: SEO is a "sexy" topic (to the right people).

• I wouldn't have thought SEO would "pop" on social media.

• But it did and in a big way.

#2: When you write out a process for a post, you learn it in more depth.

• You think deeply about it and go into every detail that makes it work.

• It's like learning it a 2nd time, but in more depth.

#3: There's SO many smart SEOs and marketers that you can learn from on LinkedIn & Twitter.

• I learned new SEO techniques, tools, and theories in 2023.

• Simply from following 20+ SEO entrepreneurs.

#4: SEO is going through another "SEO is dead" period.

• I've seen it happen multiples times in my 8+ years in SEO.

• This time is no different. SEO isn't dead. It's just evolving.

#5: AI + Humans = the best SEO.

• In 2023, we saw the emergence of ChatGPT and AI content generation tools.

• We also saw SEOs rely on it too heavily and it lead to Google punishments.

• For me, the best SEO = AI + Humans.

#6: The SEO community is an AMAZING one to be a part of.

• SEOs are supportive, eager to learn, and passionate.

• What more could you ask for from an industry?

#7: It's never too late to share your SEO knowledge with others.

• If you know SEO at a high level and have lots of experience...

• Get active and share it with others. Why not?

#8: Sharing publicly can uncover new opportunities you didn't know existed.

• I started sharing my SEO knowledge in January 2023.

• By August, I started 2 new businesses from the following I built.

#9: It's not only SEOs & Marketers that appreciate SEO content. It's business owners too.

• I wasn't sure about this one when I started. Would entrepreneurs like SEO content too?

• Truth: They do! It's a cost-effective way to grow their business.

#10: Your SEO processes are never perfect. There's always room for improvement.

• With SEO always evolving, there's constantly new ways to be faster and more accurate.

• That's the beauty of SEO -- you can keep growing with it.

#11: I still have a LOT to learn about SEO.

• I have 8+ years of SEO experience, but I'm not an expert at all parts of SEO.

• I'm excited to continue learning and sharing my learnings.

Summary

A year of daily SEO posts taught me the importance of continuous learning, community engagement, and the evolving nature of SEO.
