So, <strong>the more clear and simple your explanation and views\u00a0on SEO are, the more comfortable your prospective clients will\u00a0feel about working with you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>I have literally spent years developing the simplest verbal breakdown of SEO possible. After years of tweaking, the explanation I&#8217;m sharing with you today has worked the best. This video is only a minute long, so\u00a0I highly recommend watching it again and again. It&#8217;s only a small portion of your entire <a href=\"https:\/\/mysiteauditor.com\/blog\/seo-sales-pitch-presentation\/\">SEO pitch<\/a>, but it&#8217;s a critical one that will make your clients feel more comfortable with you than with your competitors.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZXf1jpU1mh4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Notes from the video:<\/p>\n<h2>How to breakdown SEO to your clients:<\/h2>\n<p>SEO can be broken down into two steps: <strong>Optimization<\/strong> and <strong>Authority<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>1. Optimization<\/h3>\n<p>Optimization is making sure that Google can understand what\u00a0keywords you&#8217;re targeting, which services and products you sell, and where you sell them.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Authority<\/h3>\n<p>Authority is making sure that Google knows you have the best content for their users. To grow your website&#8217;s\u00a0authority, you must put out such great and informative content that people naturally share your content and link to your content.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s SEO!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s how SEO works, in a nutshell of course. Breaking SEO down into two simple steps is important because most of your clients will have no clue about how SEO works when first walking through your doors.
