When you do actually share that on your social media or anything on your social media, if you're putting a linkback to pages on your website, then it's like a social credit that you're getting to show Google that people are interested in your site. – Georgie Hope
If you have any questions that I missed, a specific question you’d like to ask Georgie or if you just want to say thanks for coming on the show, feel free to add them in the comments area below.
Each week I check for any new iTunes or Google reviews, and it's always a buzz to receive these… for several reasons.
Firstly, it's confirmation that I'm on the right track with the interviews and that they really are helping you improve your photography business. That's awesome!
Secondly, iTunes and Google are the biggest search engine when it comes to podcasts, and it's your reviews and ratings that help other photographers find PhotoBizX. More listeners mean more interviews and, ultimately a better show.
SEO is a great strategy to add once you already have leads coming in and want to grow your business over the next 5 years. – Georgie Hope
If you have left a review in the past, thank you! If you haven't and you'd like to, head to https://photobizx.com/itunes or https://photobizx.com/google, and you can leave some honest feedback and a rating which will help both me and the show, and I'll be sure to thank you on the show and add a link to your website or blog if you let me know the URL of your website and your name.
Alternatively, if you've left a review for PhotoBizX and are looking for more backlinks to help your SEO, leave a review for the new Photography Xperiment Podcast and email me your keywords or keyword phrase and where you'd like me to link to.
Another great way to get a backlink to your site is to send a video testimonial. It doesn't need to be fancy, and your phone will be perfect. Click record and tell me how PhotoBizX has impacted you and your photography business.
Thanks again for listening, and thanks to Georgie for sharing her thoughts, ideas, experience and tips on best practices for SEO and in particular, maintaining your rankings when moving to or building a new photography website
The more listings you have, the more convinced Google is that you're real. – Georgie Hope
