A Beginner’s Guide to Video Marketing for Small Business

If you’ve spent any time at all learning about marketing, hopefully one thing that has jumped out to you is the focus of video marketing. It makes sense.

And for once, it stacked them in favor of the little guy, not massive corporations. No where is that more evident than with video. Now, a small business owner can create and publish a v...

The Complete Guide For Local Businesses

When we hear the term local SEO, we often think about the strategies and tactics that local retail or B2C businesses use to optimize their online visibility and drive traffic to their physical storefront. However, there are also B2B businesses, which may or may not operate from a distinct location, e.g., a commercial realtor. These types of businesses have similar, albeit slightly different, challenges to having their customers find and engage with them via organic search.
