After I have fought with them to let me out of bed I set about getting ready for the day ahead. Once I\u2019m ready it\u2019s the most dreaded part of my day\u2026 Attempting to wake up my boyfriend ready for work. Once I\u2019ve awoken the beast it\u2019s time to get to work which consists of a lovely, peaceful 10-minute drive\u2026 Normally accompanied by some unnecessarily loud dance music.<\/p>\n<p>I usually arrive at the office around 8.40 and enjoy a cup of tea and a gossip with all the other early birds. I then choose a Spotify playlist for the day whilst checking my emails and reading the latest marketing news from Moz. Once my bellies full of tea and my brain full of marketing ideas, it\u2019s time to get on to some SEO!<\/p>\n<p>Every day is different as an SEO Executive as you never know what client you\u2019ll be working on and you have to be able to think on your feet! I take pride in knowing my clients businesses inside out and have to become an expert on everything from asbestos to educational games! I usually start with an audit before getting my assistant to do some keyword research and look for outreach opportunities. Once I\u2019ve done all the research possible it\u2019s time to dive in and do all the optimisations before monitoring their success through different tools.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lunchtime: <\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Lunchtime is pretty much what my whole morning builds up to. After convincing myself all morning that I will have a healthy lunch I usually end up at KFC or grabbing a quick ready meal from M&amp;S. After some \u201cfresh air\u201d and a little head-clearing walk, it\u2019s back to the office to eat my dinner and scroll through pointless posts on Facebook.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Afternoon:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>I usually start my afternoons by re-grouping with Abbie to find out what she\u2019s discovered during the morning then I\u2019ll make a plan of attack for the afternoon. A lot of the time the morning will be spent identifying on-page optimisations, then I\u2019ll spend the afternoon implementing them all, being careful to monitor everything that I\u2019m changing so we can track it\u2019s success later. Once all on-page optimisations are done I use the keyword research that Abbie did during the morning and put a document together for my client suggesting why these would work better. After that, I may look at some outreach opportunities, or if I want a chilled afternoon I crack on with a blog.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Evening: <\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>After work, I skip out the office and try to find where my boyfriend&#8217;s parked ready to chauffeur me home. Once home we take our two gorgeous puppies to the park to try and wear them out (I have not yet been successful in wearing them out\u2026 ever) and run around the field with them before the decide they want to cuddle you and cover you in mud. Nice.<\/p>\n<p>When I get home (after changing out my muddy clothes) I stick dinner on, feed the puppies and go and put my dressing gown on! Once we\u2019ve eaten dinner it\u2019s time to drag my boyfriend off his PS4 so I can watch my soaps. Once TV times finished I have a stupidly long shower then get into my fluffy pyjamas and dressing gown. I try to be in bed by 11PM, which I usually am but then I end up staying up all night watching documentaries about Aliens or just endless amounts of South Park. Eventually, I\u2019ll drift off to the land of nod-ready to do it all again tomorrow\u2026<\/p>\n<p>[fifteen_button link=&#8221;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifteendesign.co.uk\/our-team\/\">http:\/\/blogawardsuk.co.uk\/ukba2017\/entries\/fifteen#sthash.TSojl4Mw.dpuf<\/a>&#8220;]Check out Jade&#8217;s full profile[\/fifteen_button]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Morning: My day usually starts around 7.30am with the sound of my alarm followed by the weight of two lively puppies on my head (one is 32KG but still thinks he\u2019s the size of my foot).
