Technical SEO implementations carried out included enabling AMP for blog posts, securing HTTPS connections to protect against Google unsecure notifications, manual link building for events, and making necessary title tag, meta description, and on page copy edits to improve the property’s rankings.

Our content team researched original and interesting ideas around various Washington, DC topics. This research was paired with high-quality copy and graphic design to create valuable content marketing campaigns. We pitched these creative content pieces out to the local Washington, DC press for pickup and backlinks. For example:
