We have two SEO services, pre-production and post-production. If you are not conducting SEO prior to producing content, you may not be making content related to what people are searching for. With pre-production SEO, you can be confident knowing that there is a demand for the video you produce before you produce them. However, your library of content that has already been produced and uploaded can and should be optimized. With post-production SEO, we perform an audit of your channel’s content and choose videos that we are confident have an opportunity to rank in search results. Then, we perform research and craft the most optimal SEO possible. Learn more about our process below.
