Nothing is worse than seeing your website end on the rock bottom of Google. Imagine, despite the effort, time, sweat and blood invested, still, your website did not appear anywhere near Google’s first page search results. The feeling of despair and frustration are all at once.
We understand that feeling. That is why we came up with a list that can help rank your website higher on Google. Follow this guide and thank us later!
Revamp your on-site SEO
Right off the bat, improve your on-site SEO. It is one of the fastest ways to rank your website higher as it only takes a few of your time.
Begin with your title tag. Make sure that the keyword you are aiming to rank high is on your title as Google puts more emphasis on terms that show up on the title tag.
Second, make your content at least 1,800 words long. Longer content means more space to dump keywords and thorough discussion for better user experience.
Lastly, add your main keyword two to three times on your page. Not to be repetitive but, adding your keyword in the right spot where it is necessary can help boost your on-site SEO. This helps Google bots to identify that your page is really about that keyword.
Include LSI keywords to your page
Adding LSI keywords is an advanced yet easy SEO tactic. All you have to do is to use words and phrases related to your topic on your content. This is to convince Google crawlers that your content is really about that topic.
Check your technical SEO
With technical SEO we meant your site’s mobile optimization and loading time.
Nowadays, people use their mobile phones more to surf the Internet. This is where the importance of website mobile optimization enters. Google prefers to show pages that are both desktop/laptop and mobile devices friendly to their users for better experience.
Check your site’s loading speed as well. Google hates slow loading pages as this does not serve their users best.
Match your content to search intent
Basically, write what your audience wants to read and know about. Google tracks how your audience interacts with your site. If the bots see that you were able to satisfy and fulfill the needs of their users, they will rank you higher.
Minimize your bounce rate
Google doesn’t like when searchers keep on jumping from your page to another. It only tells them that your page doesn’t satisfy their users’ needs. Therefore, Google will eventually put you lower on the search results.
To avoid this, we recommend you to pay attention with your “above the fold” or the top portion of your page. It is what your audience sees first. Make sure that when they land on your site, they can see immediately what your content is about with just your “above the fold”.
You might also like to add a table of contents in the beginning of your website. This is to provide a preview of what your page contains without the hassle of having to scroll all the way down. Plus, it would be easier for them to just jump directly to the part that they are most interested in.
Adding pictures, videos, charts, and graphics also help in minimizing your bounce rate as these make your post more engaging and easy to understand.
Produce high-quality content
It is common knowledge that to be able to rank your website higher on Google, you have to publish high quality content - the kind of content that users will want to share or repost on their social media accounts. That’s because Google’s algorithm highly depends on backlinks. The more backlinks your page gets, the higher it will rank.
Boost your click-through-rate
Click-through-rate (CTR) is the number of clicks your page gets divided by the number or times your page is shown. The higher organic CTR you get, the higher your page will rank. But, how will you do this?
Increase your CTR by using catchy title tags, short and descriptive URLs, and captivating meta descriptions that can effectively sell your page.
