Burton's expertise is more important than ever in helping businesses thrive online. Over a decade ago he beat a billion dollar company by outranking them on Google.

Since founding his company SEO National in 2007, he writes for Forbes, has been featured in publications including Entrepreneur Magazine, BuzzFeed and USA Weekly, and has helped high-profile clients make more in a month than they used to in a year.

Just threw half a dozen notebooks from masterminds in the trash. 🗑️

And put 50+ books in the closet that I kept telling myself I would read one day. But seeing that pile of books constantly just stressed me out.

I have more than enough opportunities available to me that everything else is just a distraction.

And you probably do too…

This is the year of less inspiration, more action.

Last year was great. Was going to write a massive post about all the cool things, but there were so many that it would take me, legit, a full day to type it all out.

So here's a bulleted list of some that are top of mind:

✅ Celebrated 19 years married
✅ Spend 3 weeks in Europe and Dubai with my wife and kids (France > Germany > Italy > Spain > Greece > Dubai)
✅ Finished building a lake front vacation home I've been day dreaming and motioning to bring to life for years
✅ Bought a commercial building
✅ Launched an agency training program
✅ Had my biggest business day, selling ~$100,000 on the backend of a day
✅ Added our single biggest contract, over $400,000 annually
✅ Had our biggest year as an agency, with ~14% greater revenue than our previous record
✅ Spoke on SEO in Vietnam
✅ Spoke on SEO at the last Funnel Hacking Live
✅ Finally found an hired a coach I vibed with
✅ Found parts of me I’d been looking for for years
✅ Deepened my marriage in ways I didn't know were possible

Grateful for the delayed gratification decisions I chose to plant long-play seeds with, and trusting myself they would work, and it would be worth it.

Grateful for those that support me.

Grateful for those that trust me to support them. Grateful for my wife being my lifelong cheerleader.

Grateful for the intimate relationship that we have as a couple.

Grateful for my kids being well-mannered, confident, energetic, respectful, and all completely different personalities that cause me to reflect on myself and always look to be a better person.

Man, there's so much, and I know I'm missing a ton more, but what an amazing life this is.

Here is a video I've shown only twice before, both times in million dollar masterminds.

It's how to show up at the top of ChatGPT and other AI platforms... and a plot twist that will flip everything you “knew” upside down.

I get excited when I see someone bet on themselves.

Any time there's a shop I go to that I found out is a new business, I send go back after buying and bring them a copy of my SEO book and a little "thank you" package to support them.

I've done this with a new:

✅ chiropractor, who I now go to regularly
✅ autoimmune clinics, that I now visit
✅ new coffee shops in town

Latest was where I took our new ATV to be serviced for our cabin to be serviced, at Hansen Powersports in Kaysville, UT. Found out they had been open only about a month.

Late 20's, early 30's guy and his wife. Both smiles, positive attitude.

He wanted to bet on himself, and build something he could be proud to sponsor his 2 year old as he grows into motorsports, and pass on a legacy to him at some point.

My people.

When I picked up our ATV I brought him a signed copy of my book with a personal note. A week later I sent him cookies wishing him continued success with his new (and first) business.

Recently received a thank you note from them.

Sad, yet amazing day. My longest client ever just canceled at over 18 years.

August 12, 2007 was their first invoice for $4.95.

$2,368/month for the last half dozen years.

We watched them grow from a small ~5,000 sq ft facility to multiple ~50,000 sq ft facilities over the years.

Clients almost never cancel because of performance. In the rare case we can't get a win, I comp some time and concede before the client ever has to.

Most clients cancel because:

❌ they run into growing pains after growing too much
❌ they blow up and get acquired, and the new owners kick us to the curb
❌ a new sheriff comes in and "fixes" everything that isn't broken

The later is this client. 🫤

However, this new sheriff at least the nicer of any over the years. He's just not a business guy and doesn't "get it," what we're doing, despite SEO driving over 50% of their traffic.

But what an amazing story and relationship.

So grateful to serve at this level for this long.

Anyone got a connection at Guinness so I can claim my "World's Longest Agency Retainer?"

3 Weeks of Adventures in Europe and Dubai

Client left, then came back.

This client canceled about a year ago.

This one wasn't a new sheriff, or random cancel. The client just wanted a change of pace. He decided to "retire" from his landscaping business. Wanted to try a 9-5 job.

After working for someone else for about 6 months, he realized he was meant to stay an entrepreneur.

However, he had shut down his site, canceled his hosting, and deleted everything.

After he asked if we'd take him back, we pulled backups, reclaimed his domain, submitted a Change of Address from his old domain to his new one (he wanted to expand services, so a new domain made sense more than the previous domain limiting it to landscaping).

You can see within just a few months, he's back at #1, with ~100 more across the rest of page 1 of Google.

Love a good client redemption story.
