- Let’s start with a show of hands, how many of us have put some time and effort in getting the ranking. Keep your hands up if you have had reasonable success. Leave your hands up if you have seen big fluctuations in the rankings. Leave your hands up if you fee you are taking one step forward and two backwards.For the next 30 mins, I will be talking about one of the critical Over the past few years I have worked on 100s of websites from large information websites running into 30K pages to lead generation sites. Why is content important?
- I often have these conversations with business owners and marketing managers on how Google works. The biggest problem is that I often find these myths guiding both decisions and budgets. Let’s look at some of the most common that I hear.
- ExerciseRelevance, Clean Code, Credibility, Conversions, Content
- Tip# Making the most of un-utilised pages like FAQs, About us, Contact us etc
- Votes..democrarcy
- With the EMD update Google bot will be periodically “scanning” Google’s index for spammy domain names. It is predicted we’ll soon see the SERPs populated with more relevant and high-quality websites.

- ,Google are making it harder and harder for small businesses with "brochure" sites to show anywhere in the SERPS without have a Google Places page and a Plus account and a Facebook account and so on. A lot of small businesses don't have the time or the know-how to do social marketing and to churn out blog posts every few weeks and have very little "newsworthy" output for a blog post or even a tweet that will get shared.

- ExerciseRelevance, Clean Code, Credibility, Conversions, Content
- Going after Trophy keywords can be self defeating
- Pre owned , prestige vehicle , used cars , luxury cars, [photo] is the most searched qualifier for [id badge], followed by [employee], [company], [custom] and [security]. But it’s not just the number of competitors, it’s also the strength of the competitors that matters as well.
- Five top phrases you should aim for, combinations, stages,
- Both strategic and technical advice & give you more than just action items . Better to go deeper and give more options in deeper sections than at the top level. Keep the choices a user has to make as few as possible.
- These alternative variations are often less competitive than the more searched root phrases, but can yield significant traffic in a fraction of the time and then “stem” into other related mid-tail and long-tail keyword variations. More sites that link to a page or a website with a cluster of keywords represented by the on page content equivalents score a higher degree of relevance than websites who ignore these metrics and (a) do not use relevant internal links or (b) gain inbound links from outside sources to the website to increase relevance score.
- on’t use the EXACT same anchor text everywhere on your website. This can sometimes be seen as search engine spam too.
- . Google is expecting to see a mix of anchor text variation. Brand based links. URL links. Mixing the anchor text to will ensure that the links are not devalued by Google or worse penalised.

(Don't have an email address on the same domain? Use this method to link your content to your Google+ profile)Return to this page and enter your email address.
- Page Layout #2 — October 9, 2012Google announced an update to its original page layout algorithm which targeted pages with too many ads above the fold. It's unclear whether this was an algorithm change or a Panda-style data refresh.
- With the EMD update Google bot will be periodically “scanning” Google’s index for spammy domain names. It is predicted we’ll soon see the SERPs populated with more relevant and high-quality websites. No pattern of the size of the drop has been observed, but it has been reported that many sites have seen a sharp drop in ranking; one went from #3 to #183ogle probably uses the same trust indicators as it uses for any other website: links and social signals. Additionally, Google is getting better at determining whether onsite content is low quality or high quality without any other trust indicators

- The idea behind negative SEO is that rather than doing good, positive things that will promote signals in the search engines that bump up your rankings, there are ways to do bad, terrible, negative things. Now, obviously you could do these on your own sites, but hopefully you're smart enough not to do that. You go on Fiverr and you buy some cheap links. You find some spam through some forums that potentially works. You're doing sorts of things that are on the grey hat/black hat borderline, in terms of link acquisition, and sometimes you will see that your competitors might spam report you.
- 73% of marketers who are running strategic SEO campaigns invest in content creation. This includes writing, editing, rewriting, coding, and setting it live. SEOs have a hard time thinking past keywords and “Google ranks”. We have a difficult time seeing the bigger objectives of businesses beyond rankings. I often hear “My job is to get the site ranking. After that, it’s their responsibility”.We, and our clients, need to start thinking along the lines of these questions: “Is this content driving links and shares?” “Is it ranking and driving traffic?” “Are we then capturing that traffic so we can convert them later?” Now we’re starting to sound like real marketers…
- The purpose of the content is to provide business goal by way of positioing credibility, adds value to users. How to work with your content. What is working now.
- Let’s say you are a mortgage broker who provides home loans for property buyers and those who are renovating. Those niche areas of people who are redoing the kitchen, building pools decks. That’s a separate target market How about creating pages that addresses their concerns.
- Product review, lists, How to Company news
- The aim of the content is to help customers. If yours is an ecommerce site the content should give relevant information to them so they can make a buying decision and act on it. Over-arching phrases at the top level and then niche ones. For example Printers
- As Google updates become more advanced, we can expect to see WPO having an increased influence on search traffic results. WPO analyses front and back end functionality and focuses on creating a holistically superior website in terms of performance and user experience (UX). We already know that loading time and page speed influence rankings, so with massive increases in mobile search these factors stand to become even more important as mobile devices are often subject to comparatively slower connection rates, which affect site speed and functionality. Consequently, websites with poor site speed performance could eventually be devalued by Google as they offer a lesser UX when viewed on a mobile device.
