SEO (Search Engine Optimization) involves helping websites rank higher in Google search results. Higher rankings lead to increased attention and revenue. SEO is an ongoing process that requires continuous effort to beat the competition and maintain top rankings. Clients often stay for multiple months, creating a stable and predictable income. SEO involves keyword research, content creation, and obtaining backlinks. While learning SEO takes time, the long-term benefits include building a future-proof business.

This approach enables individuals to build a business worth thousands of dollars a month while maintaining their current job or studies.
