Whether you are an online writer, blogger, website manager, or company, you need to master the Dos and Don’ts for Ranking #1 on Google Search with Search Engine Optimization as your guide.
Very often, businesses and blogs which are seeking to enjoy free search traffic from Google, Bing, and Yahoo get disappointed. Their strategies fail to work, and their good content created dies on arrival online and does not make it to page one or two.
Content is king but, it becomes a mere subject in the kingdom without the right SEO tips, ricks, and strategies. Get your SEO wrong and produce the best content on any subject, and trust me, that content will not fly.
Being a copycat may make you publish new content so fast on your blog or website, but that is very annoying to search engines, and they may crawl your website all right, but you would not rank for that content since someone else put it out there. Create original content for your audience. This is one best way to build your site and become noticed by Google as a valuable contributor to the web.
Every content you put out there should add value to the reader and provide something unique. This means you should pay attention to and follow the E-A-T strategy. What is E-A-T? (and Why It’s So Important for SEO)
The acronym E-A-T refers to content that shows your level of Expertise, Authority, and Trust. If Google identifies your content as one that demonstrates your expertise in a given niche, industry, or a particular topic, it pulls that content for readers who search for keywords related to it on its search engine. Thus, Google is only interested in promoting valuable content which demonstrates a high level of knowledge in the field.
If your website is constantly updated with very good and useful content, it will pass the Google E-A-T test and lead to more organic traffic
Do not use any image without asking if the image communicates the topic or does it match the content? Apart from the title, the image is another first-stop shop that markets the content to the audience. The wrong image you choose can kill your good content. Free images can be got from Pixabay.com, but always compress them at compressjpeg as this will increase the loading speed of the content for readers. You should also install AMP and set it up to provide readers on mobile phones with a super fast-loading website. The faster the website loads for readers, the better.
Introduce useful internal and external links into your content. When other blogs copy content from your site and link your website as the source, it gives you better ranking and visibility as your backlink, but notes that some poor backlinks can hurt your site.
