You work hard on your art. You want people to discover it. But if you’re relying entirely on social media to be found, you’re building on shaky ground.
Search engines like Google, YouTube, and even Pinterest are still powerful tools for helping people find your work—but only if you’re strategic about how your art shows up there.
That’s where SEO comes in.

Meg Casebolt Quotes
“The only things you really own online are your website and your email list.”
“Social media is the rented house. Your website is your home.”
“SEO is about helping people who are already looking for what you offer—you’re just showing up at the right moment.”
“Think about the words someone might use to describe your art if they didn’t know anything about art.”
“If you can describe your artwork out loud to a friend, you can write alt text.”
“You don’t have to do everything—just take one step at a time and make your site a little more helpful each month.”
“Blogging still works—but not if you’re writing into the void. It needs to be intentional and useful to the reader.”
