Yes, we all know that blogs are great for SEO, but they should be so much more than that. When you're only using your blog as a way to catch Google's eye, you will bore your audience --- and then Google won't prioritize you.

Human-first content is always the goal, but there are ways to make the formatting easy for search engines and their AI.

We talk blog strategies, blog mindsets, and more in EP 024 of More Than Creative, The Podcast.

The More Than Creative team has had a lot of big changes in out personal lives: new experiences, rain storms, and events on the horizon.

With some much going on in our lives, we've thought a lot about how to avoid burnout when it comes to marketing and with the grounding experiences Dakota recently had, we've realized marketing is supposed to fun. It's exciting, and it's experiments, it is science! It supposed to be fresh and questioning and nothing is guaranteed.

What's worse? Being a Snake-oil salesmen or being just a salesman?

It doesn't have to be like that. We don't have to get that gross, icky feeling when trying to sell our offerings. As entrepreneurs, we have the luxury and the privilege to only sell what we believe in, so if you've got that gross feeling, you either need to change your mindset or change your product.

Come inside! We haven't cleaned. Our place is a mess, but we have nothing to hide. You shouldn't either. This is life.

The entrepreneurial life is unique, complex, full of challenges that only other entrepreneurs will understand, and has several little perks that everyone judges you for (like endless flexibility).

But with that great power comes a great responsibility and with that comes a great pressure and with that comes a great stress and with that comes a great freeze and with that... you get the point.

Kick off your shoes, scrape the dirty clothes off the couch, and hang for a bit. We are all doing out best in EP 018 of More Than Creative, The Podcast.

We've been away for a bit, and we've been reviewing a lot.

One of the fundamental beliefs of More Than Creative is a responsibility in what we make and what we put out in the world. There is so much "content" already in the world; we are only interested in making things with substance. Everything can have a purpose, and we want to be a part of that.

This episode is a lot of musing, but there's a time and a place for that too.
