About Samantha Digital

Samantha Digital History

Wondering how we got started? It’s probably not what you think..

2019

Landed My ‘Dream’ Job

In early 2019 I landed what I thought was my ‘dream’ job in consulting.

I worked hard, stayed late, and kept learning. I loved solving clients’ complex problems and leading my team by example.

However, after about a year, my passion for technology consulting fizzled out.

Turning Point

I started a food blog, Lifestyled By Sam, as a creative outlet to share my passion for baking and hosting parties while leveraging my technical knowledge and experience.

2021

Learning & Loving Blogging

By the fall of 2021, I was starting to really feel like I was getting the hang of this whole blogging thing.

I was noticing an uptick in traffic, and I was creating systems to be more effective.

I continued to spend practically every minute outside of work on my food blog.

It SO HARD to choose, but some of my favorite posts include: coffee gift basket, DIY mimosa bar, DIY edible arrangement, rainbow cupcake cake, Italian-themed date night, skeleton charcuterie board, and my margarita bar cart.

2022

Founded Samantha Digital

In 2022, I realized that while I loved blogging about desserts and hosting parties, my real passion was blogging, SEO, and website development.

Therefore, I decided to put my food blog on hold and start Samantha Digital to help curious corporate employees, aspiring entrepreneurs, and growing small business accelerate their growth with small business web design packages and development and blog content marketing.

Don’t sleep on internal links 🙌

I know, I know, going back and dating internal links is time consuming and tedious

BUT it is so, so important.

Not only does it help Google crawl your website and understand the most important pages, it also helps keep users on your site longer!

Tips to make adding internal links easiest:

1. When you’re creating a content brief for your blog post, identify 2-3 internal link opportunities right away.
2. Set a monthly calendar reminder to go through your blog posts and identify linking opportunities and commit 20-30 minutes to adding these links.
3. Focus on impact! Remind yourself this is a low effort, high impact task.

Questions about internal linking? Drop them below - I can’t wait to hear from you!

Are you getting website traffic but no sales?

Try these tips:

1. Share your story and connect with your visitors: people buy from people they like, can relate to, and TRUST. By sharing your story with visitors, you’re helping build that connection right away. And bonus points for getting vulnerable, which also helps build a connection but also builds trust. But most importantly, be genuine and real.

2. Encourage engagement: obviously you want visitors to download your free e-book, sign up for your newsletter, shoot you a message via your contact page, and purchase your product. But are you making it abundantly clear? Just like with Insta, tell your audience exactly what you want them to do.

3. Simplify user experience: Ask yourself: Is my menu navigation perfectly clear? Does each section of the page contribute to the goal of the page? Is each page easy to use on mobile? Does your site load quickly? Don’t take these little things for granted. They make a huge difference.

4. Create a sense of urgency: The likelihood of a user returning to your site via organic Google search is slim to none. That’s why it’s your job to do everything you can to get the user to take action the first time they land on your site. You can create a sense of urgency through your website copy, by having deadlines and countdown timers, and limiting quantity. However, be genuine about this (don’t say you only have 3 coaching spots if you really have 6).

There is so much more to talk about when it comes to making more sales from your website so make sure you follow for more.

SEO results for a new site generally take 6-12 months:

Month 1-3: you’re building your website’s content foundation, learning the ins and outs of SEO and best practices. And Google is spending time getting to know your site, and assess its authoritativeness, trustworthiness, expertise, and experience.

Month 3-6: the honeymoon phase 🥰 things are starting to click, you might even find yourself in the top 20 in Google SERPs. But your rankings are fluctuating quite a bit. And you’re likely not getting regular traffic at this point. If you’re an existing website (not a new site), this time frame is where you may start to notice things really trending in the right direction.

Month 6-9: you may start to feel like you’ve got it all down pat! 🤩 But rankings can still fluctuate. In fact, it’s not uncommon for rankings to drop during this phase. 😵‍💫 this is where so many people give up. Don’t do that 😉 stick to your content strategy and build backlinks. Stay focused 🙌

Month 9-12+: this is where the magic usually happens 🤩
Rankings and traffic become consistent. You’re building your brand, streamlining content creation AND getting leads 🥳 but the hard work doesn’t stop here. Ranking at the top of Google, isn’t a once and done task. It takes consistent work 🙌

IMPORTANT: these ranges are based on my experiences and many other websites. BUT it’s not the only way things can go down when it comes to SEO. It depends on your industry, content creation schedule, backlink strategy, Google algorithm updates and more.

Is your website objectively great OR subjectively great 🤔

If you’re not asking yourself this question, it could be holding you back from maximizing your website traffic and conversions.

That’s why I recommend performing an objective, comprehensive technical audit every 3-6 months to get an objective look at your websites overall health.

And I don’t mean simply running your site through a tool like Ubersuggest or Ahrefs.

There’s so much more that goes into a website audit than clicking “submit” on an automated tool.

Are you regularly auditing your website and getting outside feedback from a friend, client, or SEO professional?

If you answered no, you’re not going to want to miss my 12 Days of Christmas sale this year.
