Just as a sample: She wants direct traffic more than SEO traffic She uses the principles of quality customer service to help grow her audience She rarely looks at keyword tools to source topics And she doesn't shy away from showing the good, the bad, and the ugly when testing the recipes she shares on her blog It all started back in 2014 while juggling a full-time job as a copywriter. Jessica wanted a creative outlet, so she started up her blog sweetestmenu.com. Initially, she knew nothing about SEO or turning her site into a business so it was a true hobby blog. She'd promote her content mainly on social media until a pivotal moment in 2016 when she transitioned to an SEO strategy after an audit with Casey Markee. But this is not your traditional 'SEO' story. Her content strategy heavily prioritizes the actual reader over any search engine algorithm, and it seems to be working. For instance, Jessica emphasizes the importance of creating content based on reader demand and feedback rather than the usual keyword research approach. She looks to the reader, then her own interests, then the season, and then if necessary - a keyword research tool. She also speaks openly and honestly about the challenges of maintaining a successful food blog, including the need to update old posts and the importance of engaging with the audience and providing excellent customer service. And the cherry on top is that she does all of this while working 'part-time' on the site! It really is a wonderful discussion and Jessica has a lot of great advice we could all start testing on our own blogs. Enjoy!

North Carolina on Friday became the 40th state to expand Medicaid, opening the health insurance program to 600,000 people — many of them the working poor. It brings a multibillion-dollar infusion for the state's health care providers. Also: Gov. Roy Cooper tapped Democratic up-and-comer Jessica Holmes, a former Wake County commissioner, for state auditor's job, which opened after the current auditor decided to resign in the wake of a charge for misusing a state vehicle. WRAL state government reporters Travis Fain and Will Doran break down the week that was.

Morning Show reporter Darrell Roberts stopped by Arbour Restaurant and Lounge in Bay Bulls to chat with owner Jessica Holmes.

On this week's episode of the Healthy is Hot Podcast, @thechloewilde chats with Mental Health Comedian, Jessica Holmes! @happyfeetholmes Okay, so maybe you're thinking - how can mental health and comedy be linked? As Jessica explains, wrapping serious conversations about mental health and depression in comedy can make it feel more welcoming and easier for us to talk about. It reminds people that they're not alone.

Laugh? I thought I'd cry. Why do comedy and depression go hand in hand? They often do, and Jessica Holmes says that's not necessarily a bad thing. We talk about supportive husbands, surly teenagers, hosting corporate events from home, punching up (and down), Celine Dion, joining and leaving the Mormon Church, and just what the hell is normal anyway? Jessica Holmes is a Canadian actress, comedian and speaker. Best know for her time on the Royal Canadian Air Farce, Jessica has also performed Just For Laughs and The Second City. Her impersonations are legendary, and include Celine, Liza, Britney, and, for some reason, Belinda Stronach. Like millions of Canadian, Jessica has struggled both with post-partum depression and, as she puts it, “regular, run-of-the-mill, garden-variety depression”. Her inspiring book Depression The Comedy: A Tale of Perseverance delves into her personal journey with validation and warmth. She continues to advocate for mental health and helping people take simple, sustainable steps towards fulfillment and well-being, one laugh at a time.
