The Complete SEO Guide for Small Businesses (2026)
Everything a small business owner needs to know about SEO in 2026. Real strategies, honest timelines, and actual results from businesses like yours.
The Small Business Marketing Blog
I write about what actually works for small businesses. No fluff, no recycled agency advice, no "top 10 trends" lists that don't apply to your world.
Here you'll find in-depth SEO guides, web design breakdowns, branding strategies, and local marketing tactics. I also share book reviews, case studies from real client projects, and honest takes on industry trends that matter for your bottom line.
Everything is written for business owners who want to understand what they're paying for, not marketers talking to other marketers. If it doesn't help you make better decisions or earn more revenue, it doesn't get published.
