• Canva Business plan

• Website

My general strategy is to understand who your product or service keywords are, in order to find your audience plus competition, which provides us with where they market. By creating articles you will genuinely introduce your brand and services. Display what makes you similar and different, building related website content, including additional content and ways to follow and/or connect. Provide traffic to your website by having multiple search data of natural relevance, increasing your domain authority.

Canva provides a way to naturally learn and create content to build to your goal of more clients and business for your brand as we plan. Normally I recommend the website name

In return, we answer questions and build your brand + website at the same time.
