Getting started with SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is simple.

Research, research, research and Execute.

It has come to my attention that SEO is just plain difficult. Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of keywords that are very easy to rank on and there are others that seem nearly impossible.

With that all aside, let me tell you more about myself and what this website is all about.

My name is Garrett Fleck. I’m a 26-year-old (currently) Canadian, born and raised in Edmonton Alberta, who has always had his mind set on business with a mix of tech. With over 8 years of marketing and advertising experience, coupled with a degree in Finance, I noticed that I loved analytics and numbers.

Enough about me.

Let’s get started with SEO (Search Engine Optimization)

What is this website for?!

You may think this is your run of the mill personal branding page and that is where you’re wrong.

This website is different. This website has a goal. The goal is clear and I will be bringing you along for the ride.

This website is a test. I have used my own name to ensure that none of my current clients become test subjects for others to learn off. I have successfully helped businesses rank their websites using on and off page SEO. I’m going to try this on a personal brand now, FROM SCRATCH.

The keywords that I am trying to rank are SEO Edmonton, Edmonton SEO and all LSI (latent semantic indexing) keywords around it.

Now, some of these terms may be unfamiliar for now, but as I walk you through this journey, I will ensure that I create a platform of knowledge that is easily understandable and relatable!

How am I going to do this?

I’m going to use my research and knowledge from many different sources including Neil Patel, Backlinko, Ahrefs, Moz, etc. I will include all of the information that I used to rank myself on Google and any information that the typical SEO guru won’t tell you.

Here are the steps that I plan to go over with you and will link to as we progress throughout this project.

• Domain purchase
• Host Comparison
• CMS Platform Comparison
• Theme Analysis
• Keyword Research
• Competition Analysis
• Keyword Strategy
• Back-linking Strategy
• Content Building
• Influencer Marketing
• Facebook Marketing

This is merely a proof of concept to show my knowledge of the internet and what it has taught me over the years. I love a good challenge and I hope that this journey is valuable to you and allows you to completely understand how to rank yourself on Google.

With that in mind, let’s get started!

This may be the beginning, and there is a lot to do. But I’m hopeful that I will succeed in making this website #1 for SEO in Edmonton.

Let’s get to it.
