Stop Creating Into a Void
SEO for Authors is about finding the topics, subjects, and story angles that capture existing search intent. Build a body of work that compounds instead of content that disappears.
The SEO Problem for Authors & Creators
🌫️
Creating Into a Void
You write books, essays, videos—but nobody finds them. Your best work sits invisible while generic content ranks.
🎯
Wrong Topics, Wrong Angles
You're writing what you want to write. But are you writing what people are actually searching for?
📉
Content That Disappears
Social posts vanish in hours. Even blog posts fade. Nothing compounds. Every piece starts from zero.
🤷
SEO Advice That Doesn't Fit
Most SEO strategies are for e-commerce and lead gen. Authors and creators need something different.
What If Your Content Found Its Audience?
Instead of hoping people discover your work, I help you write what they're already searching for.
đź’ˇ
The Big Idea: Whether you write books, essays, or videos—there are people searching for exactly what you teach. The question is whether you're showing up when they look.
My Approach
Author SEO
Find the topics, angles, and story frames that capture existing search intent. Create content that compounds—work that brings readers to you for years.
How It Works
For authors, creators, and spiritual entrepreneurs.
1
Map Your Content Landscape
Understand what you've already written, where the gaps are, and which topics your audience is actively searching for.
2
Find Your Keywords
Search terms that match your expertise and your domain authority. The topics, questions, and story angles your readers are already looking for.
3
Create Content That Compounds
Write the essays, posts, or videos that capture search intent while staying true to your voice. Content that builds on itself.
4
Build Your Body of Work
As you create, your authority grows. Each piece supports the others. Your platform becomes a destination, not a scattering of posts.
Your Secret Weapon: Domain Authority
DA is a score from 0-100 that predicts how well your site can rank. Most people see a low DA and think they're stuck. I see opportunity.
0-20
Starter
Rank for hundreds of buyer-intent keywords your competitors ignore
20-40
Growth
Access moderate-competition terms with real search volume

The Contrarian Take
Stop Writing Content Nobody Reads
Most author SEO advice is backwards. "Blog consistently." "Write comprehensive guides." "Build domain authority first."
That worked ten years ago. Today, you're competing with AI-generated answers and Reddit threads for those top-of-funnel keywords.
The truth: Authors don't need content marketing. They need decision-stage keywords—phrases people search when they're ready to buy.

Common Questions
How is this different from other SEO agencies?
Most agencies focus on content volume and e-commerce keywords. I work specifically with authors and creators—people building a body of work, not just a funnel. The goal is finding readers, not leads.
How long until I see results?
Most clients see first-page rankings within 8-12 weeks. Some see results faster (6 weeks), especially if targeting very low-competition terms that match your niche.
What if my Domain Authority is really low?
Low DA is actually an advantage for creators. We target keywords that match your current level—terms the big sites overlook. As you publish, your DA grows, unlocking more competitive topics.
We also run local, regional, and national PR strategies to get you high-quality backlinks that move you up in DA and help you rank for more bottom-of-funnel keywords faster.
I write about spiritual/personal growth topics. Does SEO work for that?
Especially well. People actively search for help with emotional healing, manifestation, shadow work, spiritual practices—there's significant search volume in these niches, and less competition than mainstream topics.
What kind of creators does this work for?
Authors, essayists, coaches, spiritual teachers, podcasters—anyone creating long-form content who wants their work to compound instead of disappear.
What's the investment?
Monthly retainers start at $1,500/mo with a minimum 3-month commitment. I'll give you specifics after reviewing your application and site.
