Quotes from Brad Smith:
“If you’re relatively small, relatively new, not well-funded, don’t have a name for yourself or brand yet, that kind of excludes like 70 percent of the good stuff from a keyword perspective that you’d want to write for, ultimately, that’s going to bring in ROI.”
“When you’re following this method of let’s just create ‘good’ content, you’re completely 100 percent relying on what other people find interesting.”
“Social things are going to be a lot more beneficial shorter term. Over the long term, it’s just about scale.”
“The whole ranking thing is like the chicken and the egg. I can’t rank for big keywords until I’m big, but I’m not going to be big until I rank for some keywords.”
“Marketers don’t need more ideas. They don’t need better ideas. They just need to execute better, and executing better comes from processes and boring systems and operations.”
