Founder reflection

What this taught me.

Large publisher growth is a systems problem. The page, template, topic, and reporting layers all need to support faster decisions.

How it translates now.

SEOH applies this to media and publisher SEO by connecting topic authority, AI citation readiness, technical health, and reporting cadence.
