Why SEO Needs Psychology: Angela Skane on TikTok, Conversions, and the Future of Search
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of The Simple and Smart SEO Show, Crystal Waddell welcomes Angela Skane from Network Solutions for a conversation about why SEO needs to move beyond rankings, impressions, and visibility.
Angela shares how her background in link building, viral content, and content strategy shaped the way she thinks about SEO today. Her big message? Impressions don’t pay the bills. SEO content has to do more than show up — it has to connect with real people and help them take action.
Crystal and Angela also dig into what TikTok can teach SEOs about psychology, audience targeting, emotional triggers, and conversion. From TikTok Shop affiliate content to AI-powered personalized search, Angela explains why the future of SEO belongs to marketers who understand both algorithms and human behavior.
If you’re a creative entrepreneur, Shopify seller, content marketer, or SEO professional trying to understand where search is headed, this conversation will help you rethink how you create content for the people behind the keywords.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why SEO visibility is not the same as business results
- How TikTok reveals what makes people stop, click, share, and buy
- Why SEOs need to take more responsibility for conversion
- How personalized search and LLMs are changing content strategy
- Why writing to rank is not enough in the future of search
- How to speak more directly to your audience through your content
