  • SEO Mistakes B2B Tech Companies Make: Sam Dunning
    Jun 26 2024

    Engage your leads, answer repetitive questions, or provide around-the-clock customer service on your website with Landbot.io/try

    Sam Dunning is the founder of SEO agency Breaking B2B. According to Sam, B2B tech companies often make the mistake of approaching SEO as a checklist activity, focusing on top-of-the-funnel keywords and neglecting revenue-driven SEO.

    Takeaways

    • Websites can function as 24/7 sales reps, unlike salespeople who have limited availability. It is crucial for websites to be clear, customer-focused, and resonate with target prospects.
    • B2B tech companies often make the mistake of approaching SEO as a checklist activity, focusing on top-of-the-funnel keywords and neglecting revenue-driven SEO. It is important to identify bottom-of-the-funnel keywords and build best-in-class landing pages for each offer.
    • Sam's engaging and humorous LinkedIn content, such as the Ask the Public series, has helped build his personal brand and differentiate him from others in the industry.
    • Creating YouTube videos related to targeted keywords can help dominate search results and increase click-through rates. Embedding these videos on relevant website pages can also enhance the user experience.
    • Consistency and longevity are key to building a successful personal brand and driving business growth.
