Client site is mainly ranking for his portfolio, and not the keywords we want

I run a site for a media buyer. I inherited the site this way, but my client is ranking for his customers brand names, and not what we want "media buying" or some version of "broadcast media buying"

We're only getting 13-60 impressions per querie. But how do I clean this up so we start ranking for the terms we want and not his customers brands? Should I deindex all the portfolio pages on his site?

I'm looking for a legitimate SEO course

I've been doing this about half a year and learned a lot, have a few clients for web development but I really want to learn SEO and be confident in it. I've been doing it for a few clients at a cheaper rate and they know I'm not doing anything crazy but I've been able to get them leads consistently each month. Things like matching the GBP, NAP, listings, backlinks, etc.

I've been doing it at a reduced rate and want to learn SEO to where I feel I can start charging higher rates.

Does anyone have a good course where I can learn SEO?

Press release distribution service that offers dofollows?

Just used EIN, has 50% one star reviews, althought my release went through its all syndications and noindex or dofollows so its basically worthless.

Is there an actually useful press distribution service?

Cheaper option than semrush local?

Please dear god do not spam this post. I currently use semrush local on the 60 dollar tier for my clients. What matters to me is the listing management, the map pack tracker, and the Google business profile assistant. Is there a better or more efficient way to be doing these things and not overpay on semrush? I just don't like semrush's platform, i think its really snakey that they make you pay for reports and downloads when I can just have claude or gpt create a report from the data, but i also am just wondering how more seasoned pros do it

Want to mod ISO for Ultimate Spiderman for PS2

I've never modded anything, but my idea is to be able to swap character models of spiderman and venom - so Venom would be able to swing around as opposed to jump around. OR I'd like to be able to add web swinging to venom and keep his jumping.

Is this a lost cause or where could I start?

Home address for Service area business? good or no?

Seeing a ton of different info on this. I have a guy who does dumpster rental and no public address - wondering if i should have him add his home address (where he does legitimately run the business out of right now) or will he get penalized? Also he's from a town in the middle of nowhere in TN if that matters at all

I'm new at freelancing and charging way too little - help

I'm new. I've been a web dev forever and with AI I've moved into SEO, of which I am doing a good job for a few of my clients, I have about 6 right now. But the most I'm charging is 379 for an entire site, gbp posting, review optimization, finding them local backlinks...

I messed up, its too much. I'm doing everything for cheap clients and realizing the only way out is to add 5 more clients and I just realize there's 0 way I'm gonna be able to give everyone the time they need.

Any advice for me? Obviously "change your rates", but how do I not lose all my current clients in that time? I realize I've just picked up cheap clients who want too much for too little. Feel free to have a laugh at me, as long as you can also help me out.

Stumped on local business backlinks...

How do you guys get backlinks for say, a lawn care service? I'm not sure how to do the approach or outreach, what to look for, etc. Any help would be appreciated. I know already like local chamber of commerce, but I mean do I try and find like lawn care bloggers? How does that work when its a service business?
