HAMILTON, ON - Matt Diamante, SEO strategist and bestselling author of Get Found, appeared as a featured guest on the Shiny New Clients podcast, hosted by marketing coach Jenna Harding. The episode, which dropped March 9, 2026, walks service-based business owners — coaches, stylists, wedding planners, and more — through the fundamentals of search engine optimization in plain, actionable terms.
In the interview, Diamante breaks down SEO as simply "helping your customers find solutions to their problems" — and outlines a beginner-friendly approach centered on answering the questions real customers are already searching for online. He points listeners to free tools like AnswerThePublic.com and shows how to use ChatGPT's voice mode to generate expert-level blog posts without ever staring at a blank page.
Diamante also shares a compelling client success story: a local service-based business that grew from $20,000 to $120,000 per month in revenue — purely through SEO, with no paid ads or social media campaigns — after consistently publishing two blog posts per week for roughly a year.
“Spend one hour a week, do it for six months to a year, and you will get results. Other people are going to drop off — you will start becoming the expert in your niche.”
— Matt Diamante, SEO Influencer & Author of Get Found
Throughout the episode, Diamante frames SEO as a long-term marketing play — what he calls “the long con” — where consistency outlasts competitors who quit too soon. He draws a parallel to any platform-based marketing strategy: the businesses that commit and keep going are the ones who ultimately own their niche.
The episode also covers why blogs are the "gold mine" of SEO, how Google signals authority based on topical content clusters, and the difference between chasing competitive keywords versus ranking for lower-competition queries most businesses overlook.
