Cloud Stack Experiment! Here’s how we boosted keyword rankings by 23 positions 🤯⁠
⁠
Ever tried using cloud stacks to boost your site authority? We ran an experiment, and the results are wild. Here’s the breakdown:⁠
⁠
We crafted mini sites across AWS, Azure, GitHub, and Google Cloud, each loaded with powerful SEO elements—smart anchor text, images, and FAQ sections.⁠
⁠
The outcome? A 23-position jump in keyword rankings for our target page. And with 6 sites rocking a DR over 90, it’s safe to say cloud stacks work.⁠
⁠
Curious to see the full impact? Head to searchatlas.com and find out what cloud stacks can do for you.
I’ve been managing fully remote teams for over a decade, and I’ve found that the right tools and approach make all the difference. ⁠
⁠
Here’s how we keep things running smoothly:⁠
⁠
1) No Email: We don’t like email for internal communication. Slack is our go-to tool—the lifeblood of our team’s communication. Quick, organized, and keeps everyone in sync.⁠
⁠
2) Project Management: We rely on Asana for tracking project tasks, while Notion and ClickUp keep our agency and product workflows on point. These tools help us stay organized and focused.⁠
⁠
3) Asynchronous Collaboration with Loom: With a team spanning multiple time zones, Loom is a game-changer. It lets us record and share ideas, updates, and instructions asynchronously. A video often says more than an email or message.⁠
⁠
4) Accountability with Hubstaff: Managing 150+ people across time zones takes serious organization. Hubstaff helps us track time without micromanaging. We don’t deep-dive into the data unless performance concerns arise, but it gives us peace of mind that everyone’s on track.⁠
⁠
With this setup, we’ve built a remote team that’s not just efficient but also deeply connected and aligned, no matter where in the world we’re working from.⁠
⁠
Prioritize clear communication and accountability.⁠
Even when everyone is miles apart.
Let’s cut some BS about SEO! ⁠
⁠
GeoCircles and social signals? Total myth and hype! ⁠

⁠

⁠

⁠

⁠
Let’s make it happen. Visit searchatlas.com today!
We moved to Medellin for growth.⁠
⁠
Our team needed a fresh start.⁠
⁠
The decision paid off.⁠
⁠
Living in Medellin has been incredible. The city is lush and green, and the food is fresh and delicious. Moving here from Palm Beach and Las Vegas was a big change, but it was necessary for our company, @searchatlasseo .⁠
⁠
We needed to build a team of product specialists who truly understood our product. Medellín, seemed like the perfect place. We spent two weeks in boot camps, training and teaching them about SEO and Search Atlas. This intense training helped us ramp up quickly.⁠
⁠
As our company grows, we will likely move to different places. But Medellin has a special magic that will always draw us back. Even though we will be spending more time in San Francisco next year, we won’t leave completely.⁠
⁠
Our lifestyle involves a lot of traveling. Over the next two months, we will be hopping from city to city, presenting at big conferences. It’s a busy schedule, but it’s fun and exciting. We wouldn’t change a thing.⁠
⁠
Medellin has become a significant part of our journey, and it will always hold a special place in our hearts.
We helped an online casino, one of the toughest niches on Google, go from zero to hero in just a few months.⁠
⁠
1.57 million clicks. 7.8 million impressions. 93,000 monthly organic visitors.⁠
⁠
166 keywords ranking in position one on Google.⁠
⁠
The online casino world is no joke. It’s like building a sand castle in a hurricane. Massive established giants dominate the game. ⁠
⁠
They have deep pockets and killer strategies. ⁠
⁠
They don’t play nice with newcomers.⁠
⁠
But here’s where it gets exciting.⁠
⁠
We didn’t just level the playing field. We crushed them. Our holistic SEO approach left no stone unturned. ⁠
⁠
Before the project started, we helped the newcomer with technical optimization, content strategy, authority building, and improving the user experience. The whole nine yards.⁠
⁠
This was a David and Goliath story for the digital age.⁠
⁠
Even the underdogs can come out on top.⁠
From 3,162 to 140K monthly visitors—here’s how we did it.⁠
⁠
We took a B2B security underdog and turned them into a multibillion-dollar IPO candidate. How did we do it? A holistic SEO strategy—technical optimization, killer content, authority links, and seamless UX.⁠
⁠
Want to see how this can work for YOUR business? Comment “OTTO” and I’ll send you a 14-day trial to see for yourself!
We took the biggest risk in our 7 years of building Search Atlas.⁠
⁠
—one that could’ve changed everything⁠
⁠
For months, this year, we poured all our engineering efforts into building OTTO.⁠
⁠
We bet the house on SEO automation and dynamic SEO.⁠
⁠
We stopped working on all other products and focused solely on this. ⁠
⁠
It was a gamble. We spent three or four months working non-stop to create this technology.⁠
⁠
And it paid off big time. ⁠
⁠
⁠
In just 3 months since launch, over 10,000 businesses are using OTTO. ⁠
⁠
They are seeing their SEO rankings improve every day. ⁠
⁠
We took a chance in a market that was unsure about SEO automation.⁠
⁠
This was a huge victory for us. ⁠
⁠
Search Atlas is having a banner year. ⁠
⁠
Trusting our instincts led us to a major success. ⁠
⁠
⁠
As a business owner, sometimes you have to go with your gut. ⁠
⁠
Trust your intuition. It can lead you to the right path.⁠
I helped companies like Facebook go public. ⁠
⁠
Then I quit to learn coding.⁠
⁠
From finance to live entertainment tech, and eventually to digital marketing and SEO.⁠
⁠
Here’s my story,⁠
⁠
and how I built multiple companies and found my passion in SEO...⁠
⁠
⁠
I actually started my career in finance at Goldman Sachs.⁠
⁠
Worked in investment banking, helping companies like Facebook with IPOs.⁠
⁠
But I quit.⁠
⁠
Spent a year teaching myself to code, ⁠
⁠
and became proficient.⁠
⁠
Why?⁠
⁠
I realized there was another path.⁠
⁠
A risky one.⁠
⁠
But one I will forever be so grateful I took.⁠
⁠
↳ Soon after, I became CTO of my first tech company in live entertainment ticketing.⁠
↳ Moved into real estate, using tech to find vacation rental investments.⁠
↳ Shifted to digital marketing.⁠
↳ My first company, Ruckus, focused on getting products in front of people.⁠
⁠
Some things worked, others didn’t, but I found my passion in SEO.⁠
⁠
That led to building LinkGraph and Search Atlas, where we explore how Google ranks information and how to stay ahead.⁠
⁠
⁠
It was not a linear journey. At all.⁠
⁠
But your journey shapes who you are, ⁠
⁠
just as mine has brought me to where I am today, ⁠
⁠
teaching me valuable lessons along the way. ⁠
⁠
⁠
Takeaways?⁠
⁠
• Always remain open to new paths.⁠
• Self-learning can open doors to unexpected opportunities.⁠
• Building a strong network is just as important as any technical skill.⁠
Here’s a LESSON: Always give more than you take.⁠
⁠
My dad taught me that the last piece isn’t about pizza—it’s about value. In business, if you’re always grabbing for the last piece, it shows. Want long-term partnerships? Give more, take less.⁠
⁠
What’s your approach—are you a giver or a taker in business?
It’s not about more content—it’s about BETTER content.⁠
⁠
Update your existing content. Google loves refreshed pages, and a few smart tweaks can push you to the top. Why wait months for new posts to rank when your old ones can rise today?⁠
⁠

Had a blast speaking at the Holistic SEO Mastermind Event in Kusadasi Turkiye, organized by @koraytugberkgubur 
⁠
It was eye-opening. The industry is evolving fast.⁠
⁠
This event wasn't just about SEO.⁠
⁠
It was about a holistic approach to digital success.⁠
⁠
⁠
Content + Technical + On-Page + Off-Page + User Experience = Holistic SEO⁠
⁠
SEO is not just about keywords.⁠
⁠
Instead, it’s about a comprehensive approach that covers every aspect of a website.⁠
⁠
All 5 components will boost your rankings.⁠
⁠
But ignore one of them, and your SEO efforts may falter.⁠
⁠
↳ Without Content:⁠
⁠
Without high-quality content, your website will struggle to provide value,⁠
⁠
Leading to poor engagement and high bounce rates.⁠
⁠
↳ Without Technical:⁠
⁠
Without a well-optimized technical foundation,⁠
⁠
Your website may suffer from slow load times, poor mobile performance, and security issues.⁠
⁠
↳ Without On-Page:⁠
⁠
Without proper on-page optimization,⁠
⁠
Your individual pages may fail to rank for relevant keywords.⁠
⁠
↳ Without Off-Page:⁠
⁠
Without building authority through external factors,⁠
⁠
Your website may lack credibility and struggle to compete.⁠
⁠
↳ Without User Experience:⁠
⁠
Without a focus on user experience,⁠
⁠
Visitors may leave your site quickly, reducing engagement and conversions.⁠
⁠
⁠
So it's crucial to support all 5 parts of this formula:⁠
⁠
1. Content:⁠
⁠
Create content that meets the needs of your audience and is optimized for search engines.⁠
⁠
2. Technical:⁠
⁠
Ensure your website is fast, secure, and easy to navigate.⁠
⁠
3. On-Page:⁠
⁠
Optimize each page with relevant keywords, meta tags, and internal links.⁠
⁠
4. Off-Page:⁠
⁠
Build your website’s authority through backlinks, reviews, and citations.⁠
⁠
5. User Experience:⁠
⁠
Focus on creating a seamless, enjoyable experience for your visitors.⁠
⁠
⁠
Holistic SEO is not just about quick fixes.⁠
⁠
It’s a long-term strategy. ⁠
⁠
It’s about building a high-quality website that stands the test of time.⁠
⁠
⁠
This is the future of SEO!
Some webpages can change lives.⁠
⁠
They’re called YMYL content.⁠
⁠
And they matter a lot in SEO.⁠
⁠
YMYL stands for “Your Money or Your Life.” ⁠
⁠
Since it started, YMYL has reshaped SEO. Google focuses on delivering the most relevant, trustworthy results for important queries. ⁠
⁠
⁠
What falls under YMYL? News, government info, finance, shopping, health, safety, and content about various groups of people.⁠
⁠
But it’s not limited to these. ⁠
⁠
Any page offering advice or helping with decisions can be YMYL. ⁠
⁠
⁠
But it’s important to take into account that Google ranks YMYL content differently. ⁠
⁠
They look at expertise, authoritativeness, trustworthiness, and credibility. ⁠
⁠
They hold YMYL content to the highest standards of quality and accuracy. ⁠
⁠
⁠
Ranking for YMYL queries is tough but rewarding.⁠
⁠
⁠
Choose your topics wisely. ⁠
⁠
Think about your brand, industry, and goals.
Want to EXPAND into new markets? Here’s how to master international SEO.⁠
⁠
1️⃣ Backlinks matter: Want to rank in a new country? Get links from local sites to boost authority.⁠
⁠
2️⃣ Speak their language: English isn’t enough. Create content in your audience’s native language. ⁠
⁠
3️⃣ Technical fix: Use hreflang tags to guide Google to the right content for the right users. ⁠
⁠
Ready to expand? Let OTTO handle the heavy lifting. Visit searchatlas.com
Myopic SEO is KILLING your growth. ⁠
⁠
Focusing on ONE aspect of SEO? Been there, lost $500k. ⁠
⁠
SEO isn’t just about backlinks or technicals—it’s about BALANCE: authority, content, technicals and UX.⁠
⁠
Is your SEO strategy too one-dimensional? Try searchatlas.com for a Holistic SEO approach.
Is your keyword OBSESSION holding you back?⁠
⁠
SEO isn’t about stuffing keywords anymore—it’s about TOPICAL AUTHORITY. If you want to own the conversation and dominate search, you need a strategy built on depth and expertise.⁠
⁠

Keeping up used to be tough, but OTTO changes EVERYTHING. ⁠
⁠
Google’s updates keep changing and changing—here’s Part 2 with five more updates that have made a huge impact.⁠
⁠
RankBrain transformed how Google reads intent. Possum reshaped local SEO, making proximity more important. The Medic update emphasized trust and expertise, while BERT focused on understanding natural language. And now, AI Overviews bring generative responses to the forefront.⁠
⁠
Curious? Comment ‘OTTO’ below, and I’ll fill you in!
Is Google RUINING your SEO? ⁠
⁠
Here’s why their updates could be costing you big—and how to fight back.⁠
⁠
From Panda to Penguin to Hummingbird, these updates have completely reshaped the SEO game.⁠
⁠
Google’s cracking down on low-quality content, focusing on local search, and user intent. If you’re not adapting, you’re losing.⁠
⁠
Ready to stay ahead?⁠
⁠
Part 2 is coming soon—don’t miss it. We’ll show you exactly how to future-proof your SEO strategy.⁠
⁠
Stay alert. Stay prepared.⁠
⁠
Head to SearchAtlas.com and see how OTTO can keep you ahead of the curve.
@dreamforce is officially over! Loved connecting with so many people and showing them the power of automating SEO with @searchatlasseo !  #df24
Is Social Media OVERRATED for Your Business? ⁠
⁠
People often ask me: what’s the most overrated trend in marketing right now? My answer? Overreliance on TikTok and Instagram.⁠
⁠
Yes, they’re popular—but If you’re ignoring search engines, you’re missing where real intent happens.⁠
⁠
Is your business too focused on social? Let’s talk.
