Search engine optimization or SEO is a way you can strategically increase the volume of quality traffic from a search engine to your Website. Having good search engine (SE) results indicate that your Website has a large volume of traffic. Search algorithms keep changing, which makes local search engine optimization more relevant. How can you use SEO to stay ahead of the competition and experience business growth? Here are some tips to help.
Using the correct keywords on your Website helps it enjoy a high ranking on search engines. Choose your keywords carefully to optimize their effectiveness. Use them throughout your content, including headings, URLs, and titles. Repeating your keywords several times in different ways ensures search engines will associate your Website with a user’s needs and place it at the top of the search results.
Give your customers a pleasant experience by providing quality content on your Website. Ensure the content is timely and relevant with a sufficient keyword count. Keep the text simple and easily understood; use graphical material, such as infographs. Most important, don’t let the content on your Website stagnate. Update it regularly to ensure it remains current.
Avoid bad or broken links. There are times you may want to link your Website with another one. If you do, ensure your site is not inked to one that is low ranking; contains malicious code; or offers duplicate, outdated, or low-quality content. Check to ensure no links on your Website are broken due to deleted pages; this can jeopardize your search engine rating. It is frustrating for visitors to your Website to click on a link only to go nowhere or to the wrong place. Don’t give them a reason to leave your site.
Use social media to get the word out. Distribute links to the new and updated content on your site across social networking platforms. Display the material on your company accounts. Keep track of how often it is marked as a favorite, recommended, and shared or re-tweeted. Take time to thank anyone who redistributed your content in some way; it increases your company’s online presence and the public’s awareness of your company.
