Contact Marie

I am no longer offering consulting…at least for this season, and who knows for how long.

Google’s algorithms and systems are changing so dramatically. Machine learning systems have completely changed the game. My inbox is overflowing with requests for help and I’ve realized that in many cases, the things that are necessary to recover are unachievable by many websites.

100% of my focus right now is in understanding how AI is changing search and our lives as well and communicating that to the SEO community via my newsletter and podcast (resuming soon once I finish up my last client obligations.)

Recommended companies

Here is a list of companies and individuals I recommend for consulting. While no one knows what the future holds, and all of us are making our best guesses as understanding Google’s latest updates and future AI related changes, these folks are good, honest people whom I’d trust to help brainstorm with you.

Purchase my helpful content workbook. It’ll give you exercises to work through to produce content Google’s systems are likely to consider helpful.)

Some resources if your traffic has dropped

• My guide to assessing a drop in Google organic traffic
• Google’s advice on assessing traffic drops
• My Youtube Videos on The September 2022 Core Update (relevant no matter which update you have been impacted by) and the October Spam Update
• My book on using the information in the Quality Raters Guidelines as a checklist for improving site quality
• If you choose to disavow (most sites today do not need it), my link auditing book will help you to help you understand which links are unnatural and what and how to disavow. It’s the 2020 version so I reduced it to $20. Still very relevant today.
• An article I wrote for Moz on unnatural links. It’s 9 years old, but still relevant.
• Two articles on why you can ignore toxic links and Toxic Links and Disavows on Search Engine Land
• Google’s spam guidelines. And also their July 2021 link spam update information about guest posting.

For questions about speaking events, podcasts and interviews

I am not accepting invites for speaking, podcasts or interviews. I hope to soon review my podcast and will be focusing on my own content.  I’m not looking for new guests, thank you!

Problems with newsletter

I’m in the midst of transitioning to a new system using Convertkit + Mighty Networks. Hopefully newsletter issues will be resolved soon!
