“Sierra is an outstanding Editorial Manager who I was fortunate enough to work with for nearly a year at GoodBuy Gear. Sierra led all of our content strategy, content creation, editorial, and SEO including core web. In revenue alone, Sierra increased organic search revenue by 33%. She grew organic search traffic and blog traffic by more than 400%, spearheading a re-launch of our blog with new revised content, editorial and expert guidelines, and keyword-informed content. When Sierra joined, we completely lacked a content development strategy. Sierra developed a remarkable strategy in its thoughtfulness, rigor, and actionability. Sierra identified the highest priority long-tail keywords for us to prioritize ranking for, based on keyword value, difficulty and alignment with our core business knowledge (resale and gear). She then spearheaded cross-functional development and publishing of content - ranging from short and long form video to copy - from scripts to filming and editing and publishing. Sierra initiated, coordinated, developed and published our first ever Resale Report. This initiative demonstrated outstanding foresight, planning, and thoughtful execution. Sierra demonstrated all of these qualities, along with exceptional rigor and high standards - in everything she touched. Every team member learned so much from Sierra and her willingness to pitch in and add her expertise to projects large and small made her even more valued and appreciated. In short, Sierra singlehandedly built our content and editorial strategy and proved it out in execution, demonstrating stellar results and educating the entire organization on the role and importance of search-informed content in our marketing funnel. I would absolutely hire Sierra again and recommend her wholeheartedly. Any organization will be fortunate to have her blend of deep insights, outstanding rigor, flawless execution, and team partnership!”

How can you optimize copy for FAQs?
Answer the question in the most clear and simple way possible. I.e. do not repeat the question to get your keywords in and do not add a ton of detail or jargon that may confuse your customer. Ideally, keep it to one sentence. If it's a Y/N question, answer with a yes or a no and a simple why explanation behind that answer. I see so many people overcomplicate FAQS and try to add a ton of copy just to add copy. As Michael Scott would say, "Keep it Simple Stupid" aka KISS :)
