Our Founder, Daniel Schoester

Daniel Schoester combines years of SEO obsession with financial know-how. After receiving an Honours Bachelor of Business Administration (Finance), Daniel began working at a prominent mortgage website, where his content quickly quadrupled monthly traffic to over one million views.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is YouTube SEO different from regular SEO?

YouTube SEO focuses on platform-specific ranking factors like watch time, session duration, click-through rates, and engagement signals. Unlike traditional SEO, YouTube's algorithm prioritizes user behavior metrics and video-specific elements like thumbnails, end screens, and cards. For financial brands, this means optimizing for both discoverability and trust signals unique to video content.

Can compliant financial content really rank on YouTube?

Absolutely. Our compliance-first approach has helped financial brands achieve #1 rankings while maintaining full regulatory compliance. We use approved terminology, integrate necessary disclaimers seamlessly, and optimize within regulatory boundaries. Our financial clients see 300% average increases in search visibility without compromising compliance.

How long before we see ranking improvements?

Most clients see initial improvements within 30-45 days, with significant ranking gains by day 90. The timeline depends on your current optimization level, competition, and content frequency. Our data shows financial services content typically experiences faster gains due to less optimized competition in the space.

What makes your YouTube SEO finance-specific?

We maintain a proprietary database of financial services keywords, understand compliance requirements, and have proven frameworks for regulated content. Our team specializes in optimizing complex financial topics for discoverability while maintaining the professional standards your audience expects.

Do you guarantee first-page rankings?

While we don't guarantee specific rankings (no ethical SEO provider should), our track record speaks for itself: 87% of optimized videos reach first-page rankings within 90 days. We guarantee implementation of best practices, continuous optimization, and transparent reporting on all ranking improvements.

How do you measure YouTube SEO success?

We track multiple KPIs including search impression growth, click-through rates, average view duration, traffic sources, and ultimately, lead generation. Our dashboards provide real-time visibility into ranking positions, traffic growth, and ROI metrics specific to your business goals.

What's included in the YouTube SEO audit?

Our comprehensive audit analyzes your current YouTube search performance, identifies keyword opportunities, reviews competitor strategies, evaluates technical optimization, and provides a prioritized 90-day roadmap. You'll receive actionable recommendations you can implement immediately.
