If so, you might be in the same position I was years ago. I started a website, spent an entire year redesigning it, and guess what… nothing happened.
Imagine investing so much time and effort into a website for a full year, only to end up with zero sales.
Yes, a beautifully designed website alone isn’t enough. It’s like having a gorgeous storefront with no customers walking in. You are missing out on hundreds of hungry potential buyers.
Topics on their site has no search demand
Their website has no backlinks
Keyword research and on page SEO can be easily done by any other SEO agency… they are the basics of SEO.
There’s no debate around this:
I’ll be straight: I’m an entrepreneur who learned SEO the hard way because I needed customers.
My first attempt at SEO? Complete failure. At 22, I thought I was the next Steve Jobs. Spent an entire year writing blog articles. Got zero traffic. Zero customers. Had to pack up and go back to university.
Five years later, I bootstrapped a dating advice business with $6000 in the bank. No venture capital. No external funding. Just me figuring out white hat link building and paid advertising from scratch.
I grew MarcusNeo.Com to 20000+ global readers and over $100000 in revenue as a one man show. Did everything myself: website development, SEO, Facebook ads, copywriting, customer research, offshore team management. In the trenches, as an operator.
That site got acquired by an American company in 2021. Everything I learned about lead generation came from building that business.
Corporate, SME or bootstrapped. I’ve done it all. That’s why when I consult on SEO now, I don’t just think about rankings. I think about what actually generates revenue.
In our recent case study with Contigo Law LLC, a civil litigation firm, we executed a paid lead generation campaign. As an unintended bonus, we got them ranking page one on Google.com.sg for “debt recovery lawyer Singapore”.
That’s what happens when the digital marketer you hire understands the full picture: technical SEO, conversion optimization, brand positioning, and your business model.
I always tell people: one good marketer can entirely change your business and change your life. I hope to be that one good marketer for you.
When we build digital assets here, we take an end to end approach. We consider everything from technical SEO (when building landing pages) to your brand positioning, product, and offer. Because ranking is useless if it doesn’t make you money.
These days, I enjoy looking at SEO from a web development perspective. I’m playing around with frontend tech solutions and enjoy learning from human psychology and behavior. I also hold a certificate in solution focused brief therapy.
Today, search has evolved from a mere string and phrase matching system to one based on query intent and semantics.
Keyword difficulty and domain authority are argued in certain spaces to be highly irrelevant. In my first SEO project, I could NOT get anywhere without backlinks. No matter how ‘great’ the content I produced or wrote.
Today, there are case studies in Singapore’s own local SERPs where individuals are outranking old industry leaders just based on originality and human effort. Search indeed has become semantic in nature. It’s not even about going deep into entire topical coverage anymore.
There are exciting concepts I wish to test, such as quality thresholds, source identity context, micro/macro semantics and cost of retrieval. I have also been busy building agentic A.I. workflows based on these new concepts in an attempt to test them on a secret legal tech startup that will use semantic SEO as a main distribution channel.
I shall publish the case studies on my blog.
