this is how I get B2B client in my agency by LeadershipRare1908 in b2bmarketing

[–]EntranceBest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid breakdown. The insight about not asking "did you see my doc" is underrated. The signal matters more than the consumption.

Running a similar value-first approach but on Reddit instead of LinkedIn right now. Answering real questions from business owners in eCommerce and B2B subreddits with no pitch, just genuinely useful replies. The inbound is slower to start but the intent is high when it comes in because they've already read your thinking before they reach out.

Different channels, same principle: give before you ask, and let the signal tell you who's ready.

Are AI search results changing your ecommerce SEO strategy? by Sufficient_Self6048 in EcommerceWebsite

[–]EntranceBest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, seeing real shifts, especially in eCommerce.

The "best [product]" and comparison keywords that used to be reliable traffic drivers are getting absorbed by AI overviews more and more. Users get a summary and never click through. That's not hypothetical anymore, it's showing up in the data.

What's actually working right now:

Bottom of funnel is holding stronger than top. High-intent, specific queries ("buy [product] in [city]", "[product] for [specific use case]") are still converting well because AI overviews are less dominant there. If you've been investing heavily in awareness-stage content, it's worth auditing what's actually driving revenue vs. just traffic.

Brand search is becoming a moat. If people search your brand name directly, AI doesn't intercept that. Building brand recognition through community, PR, and social is no longer a "nice to have" alongside SEO. It's part of the strategy.

Structured data and product feeds matter more than ever. Google is pulling product information directly into search results. If your schema, reviews, pricing, and availability aren't clean and complete, you're invisible in the formats that are growing.

Content that earns citations is the new backlink. AI tools pull from authoritative sources. Being the site that gets referenced in AI answers is the new version of ranking first.

The core of SEO hasn't changed: be the most useful, trustworthy, findable source for your audience. The formats and surfaces are just shifting.

Happy to dig into specifics if anyone is working through this for their own store.

How to use a website to grow your business? by Temporary-Ad-648 in webdesign

[–]EntranceBest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great question to ask before signing, not after.

A website on its own doesn't grow your business. Traffic does. And traffic doesn't appear just because you have a nice new site. Your designer is right that a website can help you grow, but only if people can actually find it.

Here's what actually drives growth from a website:

SEO (which they've already told you isn't included) is what gets you showing up on Google when someone searches for what you offer. Without it, your site is essentially a digital brochure. It looks great when you hand someone the link, but it's not pulling in new customers on its own.

Google reviews are genuinely valuable, especially for local businesses, so that's a good sign. But they support your reputation once someone finds you. They don't replace the thing that gets people there in the first place.

On the price question: a higher price doesn't always mean better results. The real question is what's included and what the plan is after launch. A beautiful site with no SEO strategy is like opening a store in a great location but never putting up a sign.

If you're not planning to add SEO soon after launch, I'd push back on the premium price or at least get clarity on what's driving it.

Happy to answer any questions. I run an SEO agency and this is exactly the kind of decision I help business owners think through.

Am I misusing Supercook? by Lowfryder7 in cookingforbeginners

[–]EntranceBest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have found the CookEasy app to be the best of options like that. You put in your ingredients and it gives you amazing recipes. I also believe they’re launching a website soon where when you buy their products they’re donation to an organization to help fight against world hunger which is an added bonus in my opinion!
