Blog Post #1: Or Why Did No One Warn Me That Selling Flowers in San Francisco Means Dating SEO First?

Well, well, well, so I was told that I am supposed to work on my SEO, and it will take months for search engines to start “liking” this webpage and eventually present to the world all my beautiful roses, hydrangeas, anthuriums, peonies, tulips, carnations, lilies, almond blossoms, and more, that I have spent months selecting and carefully choosing from the best flower farms across the world! Speaking with SEO experts, all of them mainly recommend writing content that frankly makes no sense and is created for the heartless SEO machines that will nicely rank my website at some point in time (by the way, it is a pretty indefinite, unclear deadline too). I thought I was in the floral business, where it is about what your eyes see, what your nose can smell, and what your heart ultimately feels.

Looking at the suggested types of content, all I need to do is mention keywords like: reliable flower delivery service in San Francisco, same-day delivery flowers, handpicked fresh blooms, wide variety of arrangements. 

I also shall mention Occasions for Sending Flowers in San Francisco:

​

• Birthdays – Surprise a friend or family member with vibrant blooms.

• Anniversaries – Express your love with classic roses or elegant lilies.

• Sympathy & Condolences – Send comforting floral arrangements to offer support.

• Get Well Soon – Cheer up a loved one with bright, uplifting flowers.

• Just Because – No reason needed! Make someone’s day with a thoughtful bouquet.

This must be a joke! Hey, you, reader, do you really need all these random words on the screen to get the best flower delivery in the entire city? And I bet, you know the occasion without the bullet points above too!

We are more than just same-day flower delivery in San Francisco, and we deliver complete, intentional bouquets and arrangements, which are not your regular bouquets that you get in your local grocery store or even the florist across the road. From the card to the last petal, everything would be perfect—or, how I’d like to say, “iconic.” If you truly want to “wow” someone, if you want curated premium flowers that will last long and impress anyone, you shop at Flower Icon. If you plan on getting sad petals wrapped in random plastic with a mismatched ribbon, you go somewhere else (most likely all these high-ranked, well-indexed pages). 

At FlowerIcon.com (yes, SEO experts suggested to use our brand name this way), we are not going to give in to the hands of soulless SEO and just randomly copy-paste “same-day delivery flowers,” and if you didn’t get it yet: “HEY, we do same-day delivery flowers.” Instead, we will share some useful tips and sometimes desperate notes on how a creative mind tries to survive in the senseless, brutal reality of the world.

If you thought it all made sense, please share our store or this blog post with your friends, because after all, who wants to read a random blog about “same-day flower delivery in San Francisco” if you are simply shopping for beautiful flowers?

XoXo
