@Pratik great question man.

The biggest misnomer and misunderstanding on that topic is that people are getting results with Carrot because of the “stock content” that comes on the sites.

The SEO results require (in most cases) you to customize the content leveraging our framework and training and the Carrot platform has always been 100% about creating robust, useful, unique content which is what Google is always looking for. Stacked on top of a high converting framework (which is what Carrot specializes in).

So yes, if someone sets up a Carrot site and expects to rank well in Google without following our training to customize the content and build in your credibility and brand... then they’ll struggle because of duplicate content. But send PPC traffic to that site and it’ll convert great without having to customize the content.

Pull up any of these sites, often times big investors who switched from fancy and pretty custom sites, and you’ll notice how they leveraged our platform because it performs better... but they wrapped their own branding and content onto our high converting and SEO friendly platform.

https://www.sellnowhomebuyers.com
- brought branding to Carrot
- built out custom location landing pages per our training
- creates unique content with our content tools
- controls 30+ #1 rankings for sellers in New York

https://www.househeroes.com
- uses our content tools to get top rankings for targeted phrases (like “selling a house in florida taxes” and hundreds of others)
- customized site content and built out location pages on our system (with unique content)
- dialed in branding to stand out

All of the sites above closed over high margin 20 deals last year just from SEO (not to mention any ppc they’re doing)

The reason I write this is because yes, Carrot sites are everywhere because they perform better.

But they perform on SEO not because the stock content, but because people leverage our framework, training, and tech stack to personalize their content correctly to get an edge in SEO over platforms not optimized as well.

Believe me, our livelihood relies on helping our clients get long-term results and our strategy has always been based on 3 fundamentals.

1. Focus on conversion and performance over “prettiness”. When there’s a trade off needed, we always choose what performs better.

2. Robust valuable content, credibility, and brand done right will always give you an edge. We strive to make this easier with our tools.

3. The tech stack can give you a massive edge when all other things are equal. And with our scale we have the resources to invest heavily in constant improvements to give members an edge.

Great question and I hope this helps!!

I’m sure you can see my passion coming through :-) 🥕🥕
