I see it’s been a while since this topic was discussed, but I’m really curious—has anyone here tried a different approach since then? Something that worked surprisingly well or maybe flopped? I’ve been testing a few ideas myself, and I’m wondering if anyone has had success using [specific method related to the thread]? Always interesting to hear what’s actually working out there!

A big challenge is getting organic traffic that actually turns into leads. I've seen a lot of people focus just on rankings, but if the traffic isn't relevant, it won’t help. A good b2b seo agency looks at the full picture—search intent, content that speaks to decision-makers, and making sure the right pages rank.
