I want to share some insights from my journey of running a floral design company here in Los Angeles, California and being a wedding and event florist. For six years, as well as the flowers, I worked on the backend of my website and revealed another passion… SEO!

This eventually led me to my web design and SEO strategy business.

In today’s digital landscape, small businesses face the challenge of standing out against larger, more established brands. The good news? Strategic keyword use can help you increase your online visibility, attract the right audience, and boost your website traffic—without paying for ads.

We’ve all searched for a recipe, travel blog, or wedding vendor, only to land on a page stuffed with awkward, repetitive keywords. Not only is it annoying for readers, but Google now penalizes websites that try to manipulate rankings this way.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering what are backlinks, you’re not alone.

It’s one of those phrases that gets thrown around a lot in SEO, but sometimes it’s not explained in a way that feels relevant to your small business.
