I’ve watched outdated SEO strategies die in real time.

The digital graveyard is full of businesses that thought lazy, generic SEO could win.

90% of “professionals” are still playing that losing game.

Do you honestly think you’re different?

Most still build SEO on wishful thinking:
➔ Pick random keywords
➔ Stuff them into useless content
➔ Chase backlinks like desperate attention-seekers

That’s exactly how Strategy B self-destructed.

Here’s how you actually dominate SEO today, and what Strategy A did:

Content & Intent
➔ Educational content solving real market pain points
➔ Surgical alignment with sector-specific search intent

Optimization & Testing
➔ Real-time, data-driven adaptation—not set-and-forget
➔ Technical excellence: site speed, mobile-first, UX
➔ A/B testing like a sniper, not spray-and-pray

Metrics & Authority
➔ Focus on real metrics: traffic, conversions, revenue
➔ Targeted, high-authority links earned intelligently

I use nothing except what delivers measurable, aggressive results.

Strategy A didn’t just beat Strategy B—it obliterated it: 4.2x more traffic, more revenue, more engagement.

Why? It was engineered to annihilate inferiority.

Without precision, relevance, and data, you’re irrelevant.

Your competitors who do invest in these will outpace, out-earn, and erase you.

Strong CTAs help—but strong brands are better.

Make people WANT to buy from you.

Don’t force them.

If your SEO is still on autopilot, you’re not just falling behind—you’re already buried.

The fastest way to kill an agency isn’t bad SEO; it’s hiring people who ‘know SEO.’

Join the top 1% of agency leaders by facing this truth:
Your obsession with “SEO experience” is suffocating your future.

Most agencies cling to experience like a life raft.

They treat it as gospel.

A shortcut to credibility.

But experience has quietly become a straitjacket.

The harder you demand it, the more you guarantee stagnation.

Ask yourself who’s really moving your agency forward: rule-followers, or rule-breakers?

I’ve watched agencies collapse under the weight of “proven” tactics and “seasoned” hires.

Creativity didn’t die.

It was choked out by predictable resumes and recycled solutions.

SEO innovation has never come from playing by the book.

Yet agencies keep hiring carbon copies of their competitors.

That isn’t strategy—it’s delusion.

Here’s the reality:

Experience doesn’t guarantee relevance.

It creates echo chambers.

It filters out the renegades: the ones bold enough to ask, “Why are we still doing this?”

SEO today doesn’t reward mastery of 2012 tactics.

It rewards people who see new patterns and act before consensus forms.

The agencies leading this industry aren’t run by veterans clutching dusty playbooks.

They’re driven by talent with audacity, curiosity, and vision.

This isn’t an argument for ignorance.

Technical skill matters, but only as a foundation.

Without creativity layered on top, it’s useless.

Hire safe, and you’ll rank safe.

And safe is invisible.

Keep demanding “SEO experience required,” and you’ll keep getting substandard work. 

Interchangeable campaigns. Predictable outcomes. Slow decline.

If you want to win, hire people who challenge you.

Who ask better questions instead of reciting old answers.

Break your addiction to experience as a proxy for value, or accept average results.

Because the future belongs to agencies willing to reject the default.

Your move.

Why 'SEO Experience Required' Is Killing Agency Innovation

You think office perks keep talent loyal?

Try locking a strong engineer into an outdated tech stack, then watch how fast the kombucha bar stops mattering.

The modern workplace does not lose top performers because snacks are poorly picked.

It loses them because leaders micromanage tools instead of trusting professionals.

Read that again.

How most teams think retention works:
➔ Free lunches and unlimited coffee
➔ Nap pods and ping-pong tables
➔ Trendy offices with beanbags

How retention actually works:
➔ Real autonomy to choose, test, and deploy the right technology
➔ Zero tolerance for legacy systems that choke creativity
➔ Trust in the people closest to the work to define what drives results

Ask your best developer what matters more: her keyboard or the pizza in the breakroom.

If she’s any good, she’ll dismiss the perks and ask for freedom to use the right tools.

Here’s what tech stack autonomy delivers:
➔ Teams focused on outcomes, not optics
➔ Faster cycles without friction from outdated software
➔ A culture that attracts serious talent
➔ Skill growth that compounds through real problem-solving

You don’t see elite companies leading with office perks.

You see them winning because they invest in adaptable tech and let experts decide what works.

Retention is not about dopamine hits from free stuff.

It’s about respecting intelligence.

Perks often mask deeper dysfunction.

Rigid tools signal control, not stability.

Top performers want environments where they can break, rebuild, and improve their own stack.

Anything less tells them they will be more valuable somewhere else.

If perks are still your retention strategy, competitors are already recruiting your team.

Strong CTAs matter.

But strong brands matter more.

Make people want to work for you.

Don’t try to trap them.

Why Tech Stack Freedom Matters More Than Office Perks

I stopped solely chasing Google rankings years ago and scaled my businesses to seven figures while competitors stayed stuck on the keyword hamster wheel.

Most people still treat traditional SEO like a lifeline.

That’s why growth feels slow, visibility is inconsistent, and progress looks like motion without momentum.

The playbook is outdated, even if it’s familiar.

My domination strategy:
➔ Eliminate dependency on Google
➔ Distribute hyper-targeted content across syndication, affiliates, and dark social
➔ Automate omnipresence so my audience can’t avoid the message

Too aggressive? That’s usually what unqualified marketers say before irrelevance catches up.

Week to week, I’m outpacing competitors by:
➔ Building distribution networks that bypass search entirely
➔ Partnering with affiliates who reach audiences Google never will
➔ Seeding dark social with conversion-first assets that collapse the discovery cycle

Alongside that:
➔ I run automation pipelines that deploy content before rivals even react
➔ I choose syndication channels where brand control is absolute
➔ I use precision micro-distribution that bloated SaaS tools can’t replicate

What worked?

Killing SEO dependency.

No waiting. No link begging. No algorithm worship.

I move faster and command attention while others tweak metadata.

What doesn’t work?

Playing it safe: incremental keyword gains, endless dashboard watching, and hoping rankings turn into momentum.

Anyone still glued to Search Console is ignoring how fast this market moves.

This works because control beats compliance.

I refuse to let an algorithm designed to flatten ambition dictate my growth.

I build distribution that’s automated, precise, and relentless, so omnipresence is engineered, not earned.

Comfort kills scale.

If you want real growth, stop digging through SEO fossils and start building systems that can’t be throttled.

The future belongs to those who own distribution, not those waiting to be ranked.

Most digital marketing teams celebrated today are bloated relics, propped up by outdated thinking.

Everyone wants elite performance, yet almost no one wants to accept what it actually requires.

What I see with top enterprise clients is a very different model.

It is not stacked talent or big personalities.

It is precision, alignment, and results. Nothing else.

Here is where most digital teams fail.

They worship vanity metrics.

They stay busy with meetings, reports, and headcount growth that leads to stagnation.

Their structures mirror yesterday’s failures, not tomorrow’s wins.

They talk about analytics while guessing which levers matter.

Now compare that to what actually works.

I align marketing with sales, product, and customer success so no message conflicts.

Analytics should be foundational, not decorative. Data drives every assignment.

In addition:
➔ Every hire is intentional: there are no “nice-to-have” roles
➔ Roles are built for one clear outcome, not inflated resumes
➔ If a tool or automation does not drive progress, it is not purchased

What worked for me was relentless prioritization.

Teams must be built for impact, not appearance.

Trendy tools without measurable lift are wasted spend.

What never worked was growing teams for ego.

Chasing trends.

Separating marketing from sales and product.

If a team is not aligned around one strategy, one dataset, and one goal, it will fail.

Enterprise environments remove illusions fast.

Discipline and data decide everything. Everything else is noise.

The future belongs to leaders who build marketing teams as strategic weapons, not social clubs.

If you are still running a team built for 2016, the outcome is predictable.

You either define the next decade, or you get outperformed by it.

Watching enterprise websites bleed millions is like seeing a luxury yacht sink while the crew argues over who forgot to plug a hole.

Everyone gawks at digital “giants,” yet few have the guts to fix the mistakes draining revenue.

Right now, 83% of enterprise sites sabotage themselves—ignoring SEO audits and gifting revenue to competitors.

Tomorrow, those who embrace relentless auditing and optimization dominate.

Here’s how I approach it weekly:
➔ Full audits with Screaming Frog & Sitebulb—anything less is amateur hour
➔ Fix broken links, slow pages, outdated metadata before they drain revenue
➔ Mobile optimization checks—59% of search is mobile; ignoring it is malpractice

Beyond that:
➔ Page speed benchmarking—every second costs ~7% conversions
➔ Crawl & indexation analysis with GSC & Ahrefs
➔ Site architecture reviews—duplicate content, buried conversion paths, hidden opportunities

What works? Relentless, unsentimental audits.

What doesn’t? Overpaid agencies or “set-and-forget” in-house teams.

Complacency costs millions.

Why it works for me? Every missed audit is a personal attack on profit.

Numbers dip? I hold the process accountable, not Google.

The data doesn’t lie: 1 second of delay = 7% fewer conversions.

Mobile traffic dominates—fail there, and competitors feast.

No enterprise wins by accident.

The choice is clear:
➔ Audit, optimize, cash in
➔ Or watch market share vanish

Neglect is a choice.

Optimization is a weapon.

Budget won’t save broken processes.

Face the numbers. Confront reality. Do the work.

Your revenue depends on it.

Mistakes Enterprise Websites Should Watch Out For

Your “thought leadership” content isn’t building authority, it’s training your audience to scroll past.

I’ve seen too many enterprise marketing execs cling to their blogs like security blankets, while the audience moves on.

Your blog isn’t building authority.

It’s shouting into a void while people scroll, swipe, and click past.

Long articles, keyword stuffing, “thought leadership”: they’re mostly ignored.

Drop the delusion.

How most teams think engagement works in 2026:
➔ Four blog posts a week for “consistency”
➔ Endless SEO tweaks chasing shrinking search traffic
➔ Bloated articles that vanish after publishing

How engagement actually works:
➔ Data-driven, personalized content based on real audience signals
➔ Interactive video, audio, and immersive formats that stop scrolling
➔ Strategic distribution on channels people actually use

Reality check: over 50% of marketers report declining blog traffic.

Average attention? Less than 60 seconds.

Only 26% see ROI.

Meanwhile, audience-first content drives engagement and conversions up 200%+.

Blogging is the fax machine of marketing: familiar, expensive, ignored.

Every hour spent polishing posts is an hour not building experiences that actually connect.

Stop obsessing over calendars.

Start listening to data.

Build experiences, not posts.

Blogging was a tool.

Adaptive, audience-first content is your advantage.

If your strategy still revolves around publishing more words, you’ve already chosen mediocrity, while competitors build real relationships.

Why We Tell Our Clients to STOP Creating Blog Posts

Every SEO team has a budget and an outcome.

Here’s the truth: only one of these is truly yours.

Competitors can throw money at bloated agencies.

Fill seats with ineffective generalists.

Buy overpriced tools.

Boast about “full-service.”

But they can’t build surgical efficiency.

☑ Budgets Limit
Budgets come from profit constraints, not strategy or boldness.

☑ Outcomes Build Trust
Clients trust teams that deliver traffic, rankings, and revenue—on time, every time.

☑ Outcomes Differentiate
In a world of “big spend, minimal results,” outcomes set you apart.

Why outcomes matter more than budget:
➔ Showcase expertise
➔ Prove real impact
➔ Build credibility
➔ Attract results-focused clients
➔ Create loyalty through performance
➔ Fuel word-of-mouth with execution

Here’s how I focus on outcomes:

Team & Roles
➔ Hire a single full-time SEO lead for clarity, strategy, and cross-team alignment
➔ Use freelancers with deep expertise for high-impact work
➔ Demand role clarity—everyone owns a piece of the result

Tools & Processes
➔ Exploit only tools that matter: Ahrefs Lite, SEMrush Pro, GSC
➔ Cut “nice-to-have” software and vanity spends
➔ Enable cross-functional collaboration with devs, UX, content, and analytics

Learning & Measurement
➔ Rapidly upskill your team with free resources: Google SEO Starter Guide, Moz Academy
➔ Measure every KPI ruthlessly: rankings, organic sessions, revenue per page
➔ Reject the mindset that “budget = success”—brains, discipline, and adaptability drive results

Focusing on outcomes isn’t a tactic.

It’s the bedrock of a performance culture.

Lead with outcomes.

And watch market domination follow.

Building an SEO Team Without a Big Agency Budget

Stop fantasizing that clever slogans or bloated teams will propel you forward. Study the enterprises that win, then reengineer your marketing machinery with laser focus on efficiency and strategic thermonuclear power. Or, stick to your old ways and watch those quarterly reports slide deeper into shameful territory.

There is no magic formula, no shortcut, no fairy tale “hack” to building a world-class SEO team on a budget. There is only strategy, discipline, and the will to act while your competitors waste time and money.

It’s time for some honesty. You do not need a monstrous marketing budget or the razzle-dazzle of agency smoke and mirrors to build an SEO team that cr

It’s not too late to fix this. Shred your editorial calendar and interrogate your data. Ask your customers what they want—every quarter, every campaign, every channel. If your answer is “more blog posts,” you’re asking the wrong people, or you’re lying to yourself.

Are Critical SEO Issues Costing Enterprise Websites Millions?

If you still believe original ideas win markets, you’ve already lost.

The real power belongs to those ruthless enough to rip apart competitor strategies, reconstruct them with brutal efficiency, and then weaponize automation to dominate at scale.

The CEOs clinging to “innovation first” are simply donating market share to the cunning operators who treat competitor intelligence as the only path to victory.

Are you building your business on naive optimism or unforgiving reality?

Who wins the future: original “innovators,” or tacticians who dissect, replicate, and automate competitors until nothing is left to steal?

You can chase the ghost of “adequate SEO,” comfort yourself with pointless dashboards, and watch your competitors suffocate you in the SERPs.

Or you can build a program so empirically sound, so viciously focused, that 4.2x isn’t your ceiling—it’s your starting point. It’s not about working harder. It’s about being too precise, too ruthless, and too relentless for anyone else to keep up.

Jack Dyer🕺

Storytold is one year old today!



12 months ago, I registered
Storytold™ with Companies House.


I was so thrilled when I chose the name
because I started this with a simple goal:


To help leaders get their story told.


But as I’ve spent last year with
Managing Directors and company
Presidents from Los Angeles to Dubai,
I learned something far more important.


Getting your story told is only ONE
part of what leaders actually need.


They also need a system that leverages
their authority into opportunities.


That’s why this year I’m evolving Storytold
into the company it was always meant to be:


A strategic partnership.
Here’s what it looks like:


Posts:
❌ No more “what shall I post today”;
✅ We’re building a narrative about you.

Impressions:
❌ We’re not seeking more visibility;
✅ We’re attracting more opportunities.

DMs:
❌ We’re not adding more inbox noise;
✅ We’re nurturing the right relationships.

Reputation:
❌ We’re not just making you known;
✅ We’re leveraging your personality.

Authority:
❌ We’re not writing “content”;
✅ We’re demonstrating your authority.


We’ve been acting as Strategic Partners
for about 4 months now, and in 2026
this becomes our standard with the 
Storytold™ Authority System.


And to celebrate our birthday,
I’ve upgraded our website:
www.storytold.co.uk


Thank you to every partner who trusted
us in 2025 and are staying with us.
I've never been more excited to
get you more opportunities.


And to everyone new: If you’re ready
for your reputation to start working
as hard as you do, we should talk.

And we'll get your storytold. 





#LinkedIn  #workmilestone

CEO, Storytold | Top 1% LinkedIn Storyteller | We turn C-Suite Leaders into the most trusted voice in their market. Zero posting. Zero micromanagement. Real authority that drives deals.

Here's why I've been fairly quiet on LinkedIn for the last few days. 


Something big is coming. 


Really big.


And it's not bigfoot.


It's an evolution of what Storytold™
does, to the dedicated partnership 
we were always meant to be.


Year 1, we were finding our feet.
Trying things. Seeing what worked.


But in Year 2...


We're kicking our value into overdrive
with a systemised, analytics-informed
partnership that guarantees success.


I'll say that again: We GUARANTEE success.


How many people can say that?

Watch this space over the coming days.

Trust me on this one.

- Jack 🕺

Last year I learned that visibility isn’t about being louder, but about being clearer.



Many senior leaders
think LinkedIn isn’t working
because they don’t post enough.

They see others posting every day,
sharing wins and getting attention,
and they think volume = authority.


It doesn’t.


Leaders miss opportunities
because their public reputation
doesn’t reflect who they really are.


You know an English guy who goes to
France and talks in English, and when
the French don’t understand him he
just yells even louder in English?

Yeah, that doesn’t help him get understood.



It’s the same on LinkedIn.

You don’t win by being louder.

You gain opportunities when you’re CLEAR.



✔️ A clear authority beats clever posts.
✔️ Consistency beats “going viral”
✔️ A human story attracts more
opportunities than a perfect post.


When you get clear:

→  People recognise you faster
→  Trust builds up in the background
→  Conversations start warmer
→  Opportunities come earlier
→  Your authority works for you

Because your reputation finally
matches your level of leadership.



LinkedIn isn’t a platform.
It’s a public record of your reputation.

Every post either compounds
your authority or weakens it.

If you want your authority to work for
you without taking more of your time,
that’s the system we build and run.

Success in 2026 isn’t about visibility.
It’s about leverage, reputation, and legacy.

And once it’s built, it keeps working.
Request a Private Authority Call with me.

What if you could become the go-to authority in your space without being online every day?



Most Managing Directors are
frustrated. They know LinkedIn
is a "Public Reputation Ledger,"
but they're exhausted by having
to be on here 24/7 to stay relevant.


It’s true: visibility requires a huge
time investment. First to learn
HOW to grow on LinkedIn…


(like me, from 740 to 50,000 followers)


Then it takes time to leverage
your authority into opportunities.


But the time spent figuring all this
out doesn’t have to be YOURS.


If you're spending hours each week
trying to "figure out" what to post,
you aren't leading. You’re just busy.


You're treating your reputation like
a chore instead of the appreciating
business asset it actually is.


What if you stopped "posting" and started positioning?


Imagine a system where:

→  Your time is protected: 
You spend just one hour a week with a strategic partner.

→  Your expertise is extracted: 
Your unique worldview is turned into a high-impact narrative that AI could never replicate.

→  Your reputation compounds: 
Your presence builds trust and opens doors while you’re focused on running your organisation.
‌
 

The Storytold™ Authority System
I designed took me from 740 to
50,000 followers (and counting).
 
It took me from employee to CEO.
 
It’s designed to take the execution burden
off your shoulders entirely. We install the
infrastructure; you gain the leverage.

This Christmas I learned that I'm a very different person to my parents.



Most Christmas meals are interesting for one reason or another. Usually there’s some kind of family drama. But this wasn’t so much drama, as it was a quiet, sad realisation that I’m a totally different person to the man my parents think I am.


Growing up, I learned my value system by

→ believing just what they believe
→ judging based on their judgement
→ seeing the world through their eyes

And for the most part, this was fine.
They taught me many positive values
while providing a loving, stable home.


But over one conversation this Christmas, I realised that the way they see the world - and the way they taught me to see the world - held me back in life more than they’ll ever realise.


They taught me to believe things about
myself that are just not true. Things like:


Belief ONE:
I have to be conscientious and caring to others (above all else). I love this characteristic, that I care about others. But my mum told and taught me on a daily basis, with her words and actions, that “it’s better to be kind to others than to be successful”.


Translation:
(from her world view): Be kind to others, even if it means being unkind to yourself. So I spend years putting EVERYONE ahead of myself, and giving so much away that there was nothing left for me.


Belief TWO:
I have to like only what my parents like. I’ve been in so many conversations with them where I’ve shared my new (usually niche or high-concept interests), only for them to shut the conversation down, or move it on to another topic - one that THEY like. Every time I learned something unfamiliar to them, they didn’t really encourage it. They tolerated it, and preferred to only talk about things they already liked and understood.


Translation:
We’re only interested in you if you’re interestING to us. So to make my parents happy, I kept my interests limited to ones they could understand. I never even TRIED to learn or do new, exciting things, because it would cause a chasm between me and my parents (see belief one - putting other people first).


There are many other examples,
but this Christmas it all became
clear during one conversation.


And honestly, I don’t even know why
I’m sharing this with you right now.


Except that since I started Storytold™,
I’ve been putting my team first, PLUS
I’ve finally started listening to what I
want, too. Rewriting belief number 1.


And I have so many interests that
I haven’t dared to explore yet.


But one thing’s for damn sure.


2026 is the year to start.




What beliefs are you rewriting in 2026?

#GetYourStorytold

Most senior leaders don’t have a visibility problem. They have an authority gap.



You are respected in your organisation.
Your peers trust your judgment.
Your track record is proven.

But externally, on the
"Public Reputation Ledger" of
LinkedIn, your influence is fragmented.


When an investor or a potential partner
looks you up, do they see the executive
authority you’ve spent 20 years building?

Or do they see several "polished" posts
that say everything and mean nothing?

The distance between your internal
credibility and external perception
is where opportunities are lost to
leaders who are simply louder.


This isn't a marketing problem.


It's a system failure.


Most leaders think they need to be
"better at content." No. They don't.

They need an Authority System that
turns their ideas into public leverage.

Facts and statistics don't build authority.
Strategic narrative control does.

When we install the Storytold™
Authority System, we stop the
"leaks" in your reputation.


→  We extract your executive worldview
to define a clear, strategic narrative.

→  We architect a presence that builds
trust before you even enter the room.

→  We operate the system with total
autonomy, protecting your most
valuable asset: your time.


The goal isn't "more posts."
It’s to ensure that when your
name is mentioned, the decision
is already moving in your favor.


If you're a Managing Director or
President with a long-term mindset
and you’re ready for your authority
to start working harder than you do...

This is the missing piece on most LinkedIn profiles.



Not a rebrand.
Not more activity.
Not a new website.




PERSONAL AUTHORITY.




A Director said to me before Christmas:
“Jack, we’re visible everywhere…
but we’re still struggling.”
And he was right.


When we analysed his posts compared to
the authority we build with the Storytold™
system, his issue wasn’t a lack of visibility.

It was that his presence didn’t signal leadership.

His profile explained what his company
does but not who he is as a PERSON,
and not why he should be trusted.


So we didn’t add more noise.
We installed a clear system.

What changed:

→  His profile became a position of authority, not a CV

→  His message clearly stated who he’s for and why he matters

→  His presence became consistent, intentional, and recognisable


Nothing dramatic overly professional.
We made him human, not corporate,
with a solid personal brand identity.
The impact after a week was clear:


✔️  His reputation strengthened
✔️  Opportunities appeared without chasing
✔️  Conversations warmed before they started
✔️  Time spent “explaining” dropped to near zero

His visibility alone wasn't enough to create leads.
But once he started using our proven system to 
leverage his authority, leads became inevitable.


When your authority is clear,
everything else accelerates.

If LinkedIn is unrewarding,
you don’t need to do more.

You need to be positioned properly.
That’s what we do at Storytold™.

We help serious leaders turn LinkedIn
into a long-term authority system that
compounds trust, protects time, grows
net worth, and increases opportunities.

Let’s leverage your authority,
properly, and let it compound.

If you want 2026 to be the year your
reputation finally works for you,
you know how to contact me.

We turn C-Suite Leaders into the most trusted voice in their market. Zero posting. Zero micromanagement. Real authority that drives deals. | CEO, Storytold | Top 1% LinkedIn Storyteller
