October 22, 2023

In episode #2588, we discuss healthy SEO growth rates. We analyze the annual growth of three companies and conclude that strong SEO growth is at least one to four times annually. However, we note that the sample size is small, and we need more data for better insights. We also emphasize the importance of considering the industry and stage of the company when determining growth rates. Overall, we suggest that content marketing should be approached with a full commitment to maximize results.
