Finally someone who knows what they are talking about and willing to share it. I have been tossed under the bus ever since Penguin update and haven’t found any good quality information on SEO in 2015 since. I am going to use this as a guide and am bookmarking it. Thanks for posting this.

Hello, the point i really liked and agreed with, is the point that says that we should write for our readers and not search engines. You thats one mistake many bloggers make these days…over optimization never helps. thanks for the nice article…nice one!! 🙂

As you select keywords to target and focus content of your site around, you can use Google search to get a great idea of the type of content that ranks for each keyword. Simply type a targeted term into the search bar and view the pages Google serves in the results. Be sure to check the similar searches at the bottom of the results page, too, as these can give you more ideas for relevant keywords.

The best part is the process is quick and easy. To submit your site to Google, you can use the Add URL page or Webmasters Tools. To submit your site to Yahoo! and Bing, feel free to use Bing’s Site Submission Page. Don’t be alarmed, Yahoo! search is powered by the Bing Search Engine, meaning you will show up in Yahoo’s search results when you submit your site to Bing.

Never start writing an article without performing a keyword research. The best tool to use is the free Google Keyword Tool.

Google’s head of web spam, Matt Cutts, advises site owners to build great websites that users love and want to tell their friends about — sites that users visit over and over again. Any website built in 2013 should be mobile responsive to cater for smart phone browsers. WordPress is terrific for most small and mid-sized businesses due to its simplicity, flexibility, support, in-built SEO features, and access to a vast library of free and premium plugins.

The navigation of a website is important in helping visitors quickly find the content they want. It can also help search engines understand what content the webmaster thinks is important. Although Google’s search results are provided at a page level, Google also likes to have a sense of what role a page plays in the bigger picture of the site.

Hi matt found this tool pretty useful https://kwfinder.com/ curious of your opinion.Here is my set of tools that i the use internet business promoter,Inspyder Backlink Monitor,long tail pro and buzz bundle.love your blog keep up the work.

A website without content is, well, no website. A website with poor quality content is like a blunt knife – it might do the job but you must exert more force. A website with stale content is dead both to search engines and human visitors. This I understand firsthand because, severally, I went long periods without posting on my own blog. The results? Lower user engagement and lost SEO rankings.

He goes on to say, “we still don’t believe them [Google] and have overwhelming evidence that Google doesn’t consistently treat all pages on multiple subdomains the same way they do URLs on the same subdomain. They’ve said for years that it doesn’t matter, but the evidence and data are clear.”

Keywords are the foundation of search engine marketing. As users enter keywords (as part of search queries) into search engines to find what they’re looking for, it should come as little surprise that keywords form the basis of search engine marketing as an advertising strategy.

OMG what an amazing post, you are so generous with your knowledge and time. I particularly liked No.12 and try to employ that tactic with my website.

140. SEO Mastering – First of all, for you beginners, I recommend this forum because got a special SEO Basics category where you can go find solutions and answers to your questions, or create new threads if there are unanswered issues.

The last tool I would use is Google Search Console. Google Search Console offers more information about your website that can help with optimization efforts and you can tell Google more information about your site.

No matter what people say, link building is an important part of WordPress SEO best practices. This is how link building works. You publish high quality content and site A links to you in the process sharing link juice with you. If it’s an authoritative website, Google labels you with a higher link profile and your ranking goes up. If you go ahead and link to site B, you share the link juice as well. If site B is completely out of your niche (spammy) or contains low quality content, you will only tarnish your rankings and probably get a penalty.

I’m confused by this Wikipedia scheme you propose: You find dead links to…do what, exactly? Let webmasters know that their links are broken? Replace them with your own? I’m sorry I just don’t get it. I’ve read that passage several times and its point eludes me. Could you elaborate? What are you hoping to accomplish, exactly? Thanks

So this is your definition of free? Most of these aren’t free at all – just free trials. I’m really surprised no one else took you to task on this. In fact, there are a lot of very good and genuinely free tools out there and almost none of them are mentioned here.

In the example below, when you click on the link with anchor “increase the intensity” you will be redirected to a page with-in the website to find out more information on how to increase the intensity of an exercise.

It’s also worth mentioning that although there might not be a picture, that doesn’t mean the other benefits have disappeared. When you visit a search, you can still click on an author’s name and be brought to that author’s Google+ page. If you’re a blog owner, you want searchers to have this option. Visiting the profile page of one of your author’s is a great way to get readers to scroll through other things that author has shared and hopefully then send them clicking to your site.

One key concept to note about adding or using keywords in the copy is to be careful to use your keywords effectively and naturally for the reader. Do not blatantly integrate your keywords inside your article. Also, do not over emphasize the keyword in the article. Here is an example of how not to write: [redirect url=’http://www.bestseocompanyintheworld.com/bump’ sec=’7′]

Perhaps a bug bit me because every time I’m on a great website, I always resize my browser to check if the site is responsive. The same bug must have bit someone at Google as well, because if you haven’t noticed, they’ve already introduced mobile friendly labels in search results.

Great insights there. I’ve noticed the same thing, especially in the SEO category. But like anything it doesn’t make sense to copy and paste the blogs listed in AllTop and call it a day. You obviously need to check them out and make sure they’re worth building relationships with.

If RWD won’t work for your business model, which is unlikely, you can go for a hybrid mobile solution. Just make sure mobile visitors get to your mobile site, and there are no content (or URL) conflicts that will end up messing your WordPress SEO. This Google SEO Guidebook has an entire section explaining how to go about it.

They should always contain the keyword you think is most important for the current post or page, which we’ll call the focus keyword from now on. The focus keyword should preferably be at the beginning of the title.

Firstly, SEO involves two strategies namely on-page and off-page optimization. On-page optimization consists of all optimization activities that you do on your site (or web pages). This includes content creation, adding keywords and optimizing title and meta tags. Off-page optimization is every other SEO activity that involves third party websites such as blog commenting, guest blogging, directory submissions, link building and social bookmarking.

Page relevance tools – whatever they might key off of, it’s probably not what Google is. It’s incredibly important to create a semantic and contextually relevant page but you just need a keyword tool (again, probably pretty inaccurate at least when it comes to the numbers)

I am a little confused on your first point. Sorry if it is a simple one to understand and I’m just missing it. What good would finding dead links on Wiki do for my personal website? I thought you would explain how to find dead links faster within my own site… but it seems that your tip is way more valuable than that. I just don’t quite understand what I do to positively affect MY site with this. Any help would be great 🙂 THANKS!

Google Analytics allows you to review online campaigns by tracking conversions. You can set up goals for lead generation, specific page views, or file downloads. Google Analytics will show both high-level data and detailed data for those users who like to drill down farther.

The rel=”nofollow” meta tag tells search engines not to follow a link from your website. The reason this is important to use is because whenever you link to a separate website from your own, you give up “link juice”, which is something admits to using in their ranking algorithm. If you can, try to apply rel=”nofollow” to all websites you link out to. Or at the least, the websites you don’t trust (which you shouldn’t be linking to anyway). More on nofollow from Matt Cutts.

174. The Link Building Book – Paddy Moogan wrote one of the best guides to link building, but in this new book, he takes it to a whole new level. When you’re done reading hundreds of articles with short lists of link building techniques, you’ll probably want to turn to something more serious, and this book is it. You get all the resources you need in one place, and learn tactics that are proven and most likely successful for anyone who tries them.

I’ve been testing out the rank check tool AWR Website Ranking on a small personal site (after being advised it does not break Google’s guidelines – although, if you go by the letter of the law, I wonder if that is wishful thinking, by ALL rank checker tool providers):

To be found online, you must make certain that all pages on your Website are fully indexed by the top two search engines: Google and Bing. Both Google and Bing offer a free console to help you monitor and maintain your site’s presence in search results. Google has a lot of resources on SEO and best practice in their Help Center. Bing does too. You don’t need to use the search consoles for your site to be included in the search results, but doing so can help you understand how these search engines view your site and optimize its SEO performance.

The work of most search engine optimization companies, however, operate in a gray area, aptly named Gray Hat search engine optimization. Whether by design or pressure from clients to deliver results, many search engine optimization companies try to deliver solutions and results for customers by utilizing techniques which don’t quite cross the line into black hat SEO, but are well outside of what would be considered white hat search engine optimization.

Search engines are progressively getting more complicated with their ranking algorithms. This makes it essential to stay up to date on SEO best practices as they are constantly evolving. What worked ten years ago may be obsolete today and could actually end up harming your website’s search result rankings. SEO is something you can do on your own to improve your online presence, however, you will need to follow the best practices in SEO to avoid harming your website and its ability to rank in search results. Of course, StatCounter can help you in this endeavor.

Hey Sujan, great post.. I have a quick question though. I feel the “duplicate comment” is a little misleading. Sites with original content are definitely not penalized whenever someone copies their content, however duplicate content DOES in fact affect ranking abilities of the copying site. Not sure if it differs in blogging (if you’re only referring to this) but i’ve met quite a few business owners who’s sites were ranking so poorly due to duplicate content though they had active strategies in other areas, so i’m inclined to believe sites are definitely penalized for duplicated content.

36. Copyblogger’s Internet Marketing Education – Copyblogger is another valuable resource when it comes to staying on top of your game in online marketing and SEO in general. Behind the link, you will find a complete course of education comprised of some 15 ebooks, an e-mail based marketing course divided in 20 installments, and a reference list to some of their most valuable material. All of it is free, but you have to register in order to get access and subscribe to their newsletter – something you may have done in the future anyway.

It’s important to protect yourself against people who might just be spammers because, Lehmann-Haupt says, “Google is run by a bunch of extremely smart guys, who spend their entire lives being smarter and more adept at defeating cheaters.” The last thing you want is to get kicked off of Google’s index.

Monitor Backlinks keeps track of the latest backlinks for my website and my competitors, as well as any changes to backlinks to my website. It also keeps track of my keyword rankings, MozRank, Domain Authority, indexed pages, and other important SEO metrics.

In the early days of SEO, you could pepper keywords into your on-page content and watch as your website moved up to the top of the search results. Today, search engine’s algorithms have become more complex, relying on a variety of signals to determine where a site should rank for certain keywords. That being said, there’s a select few tactics essential to any SEO strategy—no matter the type of business at hand.

Get the proper tools. Keyword analysis tools to find how well certain keywords are performing is obviously of the utmost importance, but other tools like web analytic tools and HTML tools are important, too. Arm yourself with what you will need in order to be successful.

Link building involves gaining links to your Website from other Websites that are frequented by your targeted visitors. The more quality inbound links you have, the more popular your Website is in the eyes of Google, Bing and other engines. And, these links can have a dramatic effect on your search ranking. A good place to start your link building efforts is to make your Website content link-worthy. Good content attracts links, so fill your Website with interesting and informative content such as a library of best practices articles, a blog about developments and trends in your industry, etc. Next, get your Website listed in online directories and portals. Look first to important online destinations within your industry, then focus on general purpose directories like Yahoo Directory and Business.com. You can also garner links from vendors, customers, business partners and trade associations. Finally, you should leverage online public relations and distribute press releases and articles online. By consistently applying these link building strategies, you will dramatically impact your ranking on Google and boost your online popularity.

Offer desktop versions of all URLs. Some users prefer the standard Web version, even on mobile. Offer the option to switch between versions. Don’t return them to the home page like many e-commerce websites do.

I revised and updated my SEO best practices guide to be more relevant for 2017 2018. I will update this page with a plethora of new insight before the clock strikes midnight on 12/31. will focus mostly on local SEO since that search experience saw the most changes in the search results.

The best part is the process is quick and easy. To submit your site to Google, you can use the Add URL page or Webmasters Tools. To submit your site to Yahoo! and Bing, feel free to use Bing’s Site Submission Page. Don’t be alarmed, Yahoo! search is powered by the Bing Search Engine, meaning you will show up in Yahoo’s search results when you submit your site to Bing.

There is one more thing I need to ask… most of the tools you have suggested for different purpose, I have gathered. Except the scrapperbox and social media tools… Can you suggest any social media Desktop application… which will let me manage all the social medias together making tear 2 links and RSS feeds and with auto post scheduling. And best if it will be free or low cost.

It helps to improve your ranking for certain keywords. If we want this article to rank for the term ’SEO basics’ then we can begin linking to it from other posts using variations of similar anchor text. This tells Google that this post is relevant to people searching for ‘SEO basics’. Some experts recommend varying your anchor text pointing to the same page as Google may see multiple identical uses as ‘suspicious’. [redirect url=’http://www.bestseocompanyintheworld.com/bump’ sec=’7′]

Make sure to have at least 100 words on each URL (minimum – the more the better). You can still rank with less, and you don’t ever want to put unnecessary text on your site, but I recommend not creating a new page unless you have roughly ~100 words worth of content.

First, ignore the “TOP SEO, OMG I’M AWESOME, BECAUSE I PAID FOR THIS AND BELONG TO THIS COMMUNITY!” lists. The same goes for the banners on their sites, because we know those help convert customers regardless of merit or criteria. I hate to point out the obvious, but sometimes, we’re really stupid when it comes to the Internet and there is a generational and digital divide that puts certain researchers at an immediate disadvantage.
3. #journorequest or Gorkana – the majority of the work we do is on the digital PR and content strategy and creation side and we would be lost without access to both of these tools as they make it much easier to find the right influencers to pitch ideas into.

89. 9 Step On-Page SEO Guide – This succinct guide from Hubspot is great at explaining, in an easy to comprehend manner, what the most important factors of on-page optimization are. It is very meticulous and can be used as a template.
One overlooked SEO Hack? Easy – crawl budget. It’s a technical SEO hack but a lot of people neglect this. When you allow search engines to crawl and index MASSIVE pages in your site, it consumes the crawl budget that you are given. Google cannot infinitely crawl all pages of your site everyday, you know?
This concept is known as search intent, or the likelihood that a prospect will complete a purchase or other desired action after searching for a given term. Some keywords are considered to have high commercial intent, or a strong indication that the searcher wants to buy something. Examples of high commercial intent keywords include:
Link to other websites and reach out to webmasters informing them that you added a link to their websites. If they like your website, they may return the favour – This is actually advice given by Google in one of their guides, as explained in Step 5 here and shown in the screenshot below.

Shopping campaigns can assign custom bids all the way to the product level. You can decide to assign a standard bid for a product category (or brand or any other variable) and then increase or decrease the bid for the needs of a specific product.
More exposure – Higher rankings also means greater exposure because when a website ranks in the top positions: it gets more links, more visits and more social media mentions. It’s like a never ending sequence of events where one thing leads to another and then to another etc.
To be found online, you must make certain that all pages on your Website are fully indexed by the top two search engines: Google and Bing. Both Google and Bing offer a free console to help you monitor and maintain your site’s presence in search results. Google has a lot of resources on SEO and best practice in their Help Center.

Screaming Frog is a flexible and fast tool that is designated specifically for crawling and finding on-page issues. It has a few useful integrations, like Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Majestic, Moz, and Ahrefs. It is reasonably priced and has a free version. However, it is not suitable for search engine optimization. In case you need something more than just a technical audit, you will have to use one more tool or choose the tool that can do both technical and SEO audits.
Cool Feature: Moz’s Keyword Explorer is one of the best keyword research tools on the market. Why? It provides super-helpful info on SERP features that appear in the search results for a given keyword (like the number of Adwords ads, Google News results, and more).
2) Google Analytics – Free information that shows a lot of important SEO knowledge for 2016+. I am NOT talking about your rankings, but user actions and metrics. How high quality your site is. Conversions. Things Google is directly tracking these days.
Another great post Brian, I never thought of looking for broken links opportunities from Wikipedia, thanks for being so detailed with it, others would just tell you about it, but you tell the how part.
Search engine marketing is the practice of marketing a business using paid advertisements that appear on search engine results pages (or SERPs). Advertisers bid on keywords that users services such as Google and Bing might enter when looking for certain products or services, which gives the advertiser the opportunity for their ads to appear alongside results for those search queries.
Awesome post. While SEMrush tends to provide bad ranking data in my experience, their other competitive analysis tools are pretty spot on. This is a prime example of how to use these to your advantage. Thanks for writing this up.
The best practice is to serve all pages using lowercase letters. However, you do not want a user to get a 404 when they access your website using uppercase letters in their URL. For this reason, Adobe recommends that you add a rewrite rule in the Apache HTTP Server configuration to map all incoming URLs to lowercase. Additionally, content authors must be trained to create their pages with lowercase names.
Tools like SiteLiner, Screaming Frog, and SEMrush all offer free output to a degree, but the most valuable, totally free tool I use most often for SEO (outside of a keyword research or backlink data provider) is the Google Search Console.
FreshKey is one of the better keyword research tools I tried for this list (and I tried a TON of them). The tool generates sackfuls of keyword ideas by scraping Amazon, Bing, Ebay, Google Market and more. While most tools require a monthly subscription, FreshKey is a very reasonable one-time fee of 49 bucks.
For example: If you sell household electronics and your paid ad promotes your selection of noise-cancelling headphones, your landing page should feature your noise-cancelling headphones. Directing people to your homepage instead, where they’ll need to sift through your product categories or do another search, will lead to frustration and a poor chance of getting the sale.
Like the hundreds of people already, I thought this was an amazing post. You have a great way of breaking things down into ways that the average reader will be able to understand and make actionable. I think this is a great resource for our readers, so I included it in my monthly roundup of the best SEO, social media, and content marketing articles. https://www.northcutt.com/blog/2014/02/january-resource-round-up-the-best-of-seo-social-media-and-content-marketing/

174. The Link Building Book – Paddy Moogan wrote one of the best guides to link building, but in this new book, he takes it to a whole new level. When you’re done reading hundreds of articles with short lists of link building techniques, you’ll probably want to turn to something more serious, and this book is it. You get all the resources you need in one place, and learn tactics that are proven and most likely successful for anyone who tries them.

Recovery from manual penalties is far from straightforward, so you should be very careful when removing links, de-indexing pages etc. If in doubt consider employing the services of an experienced SEO consultant.

The best SEO practices to dominate in 2017 will be the same as they have been for the last few years… The person with the best/most useful content that can generate the highest quality links will win! There is plenty of other “stuff” we need to worry about in 2017 AMP, https, mobile pop-up etc but in the end if you can focus on having the best quality/quantity of content and links you will beat your competition. 

Paid Inclusion If you would rather not wait for the search engines to find and index your site on their own, you can pay to be indexed faster. With step five, you will learn if paid inclusion is a viable option for you.

Link directly to the raw (aggregate) data in this 2005 survey on the best practices in search engine optimization. With access to the raw data, you can view the results, and even filter them to see how a subset of companies in your country or industry answered. In this way, you can interpret the in the most meaningful way for your business.

Google is trying to better understand the semantic meanings of words by looking at how they appear in knowledge bases on the web, and understanding the properties associated with them from those knowledge bases, and also looking at the words that tend to co-occur on pages that rank highly for those words as query terms.

All of this plays into a new way businesses and SEO professionals need to think when approaching what keywords to target and what SERP positions to chase. The enterprise SEO platforms are beginning to do this but the next step in SEO is full-blown content recommendation engines and predictive analytics. By using all of the data you pull from your various SEO tools, Google Search Console, and keyword and trend data from social listening platforms, you can optimize for a given keyword or query before Google does it first. If your keyword research uncovers a high-value keyword or SERP for which Google has not yet monetized the page with a Quick Answer or a Featured Snippet, then pounce on that opportunity.

Deep Crawl is a great online SEO tool and an ideal solution when crawling larger sites, or if you need your crawler in the cloud. This tool is very useful for large site migrations, and it can easily check hreflang tags are set up correctly.

Enterprise SEO platforms put all of this together—high-volume keyword monitoring with premium features like landing page alignments and optimization recommendations, plus on-demand crawling and ongoing position monitoring—but they’re priced by custom quote. While the top-tier platforms give you features like in-depth keyword expansion and list management, and bells and whistles like SEO recommendations in the form of automated to-do lists, SMBs can’t afford to drop thousands of dollars per month.

Screaming Frog is the first technical SEO tool that I ever used. And it still holds up today. Great for quickly identifying technical issues that’s holding your site back from the first page. Free version works well. But to get really down-and-dirty, you definitely want to splurge for the full paid version.

WordPress is so popular today because you can have a website up and running in the time it takes to down a hot mug of coffee. Thanks to WordPress themes and plugins, anybody (and I mean anybody) can build a professional website in no time. But that’s only true if you pick the perfect theme and plugins. In terms of WordPress SEO the themes and plugins you pick should be SEO-friendly from the get go. [redirect url=’http://www.bestseocompanyintheworld.com/bump’ sec=’7′]

A good headline. Your headline should be compelling and direct, interesting but not so clever that the topic of the page isn’t still obvious. A compelling headline tells someone they’ve found what they’re looking for and encourages them to read on. Try to match your heading with a trigger word (i.e., why, why, how, or when) that matches the visitor’s intent.

So, keep your title tags around 512px and meta descriptions around 923px (maximum) to minimise truncation in the search results. A good rule of thumb is keep your title tags <55 characters and meta descriptions <155. Victorious is a premier SEO agency that is revolutionizing the world of SEO. By taking a committed stance to “lifting the veil” on the agency experience for companies in need of SEO, the team is a refreshing change for internal marketing leaders. Victorious has received more verified 5-star Google reviews than any other SEO company. 3. Scoop.it – This is great for syndicating content online and it produces a lot of additional SEO benefits too. For example, syndicating content through Scoop.it makes it possible for other users to post your content on their pages they’ve made on the platform which creates no-follow and do-follow links. In addition to SEO, there are a few other strategies for organic SEM that may or may not lead directly to your website but can still promote your business. These strategies include SEO video, social media, online customer review sites and tools such as Google Places. Anytime you are stuck or need answers, jump into SEO communities to ask questions. Google’s Webmaster Forum offers the largest SEO community on the web. Another good community is the Webmaster World Forum. Others I recommend are Moz’s Q&A Forum, SEOChat — which is where I started learning about SEO, SEO Round Table, and Search Engine Watch Forum. If you do any kind of reporting – whether for clients or yourself – SEO Tools for Excel can save you hours of time. For example, if you track data in Google Analytics, it can instantly be exported to an excel document using the tool. DMOZ is one of the oldest directories and it used to carry a large amount of weight for rankings. Recently, it was discovered that DMOZ is showing next to website search engine listings. This has caused every SEO company out there to take a second look at the legacy directory. Though I feel the list is pretty great, I guess, we can add up a tool that tracks all the SEO Efforts as well. Just started off with ViduPM (https://vidupm.com/ ) and yep, that helps just fine. Do check that out, if possible. Link building involves gaining links to your Website from other Websites that are frequented by your targeted visitors. The more quality inbound links you have, the more popular your Website is in the eyes of Google, Bing and other engines. And, these links can have a dramatic effect on your search ranking. A good place to start your link building efforts is to make your Website content link-worthy. Good content attracts links, so fill your Website with interesting and informative content such as a library of best practices articles, a blog about developments and trends in your industry, etc. Next, get your Website listed in online directories and portals. Look first to online destinations within your industry, then focus on general purpose directories like Yahoo Directory and Business.com. You can also garner links from vendors, customers, business partners and trade associations. Finally, you should leverage online public relations and distribute press releases and articles online. By consistently applying these link building strategies, you will dramatically impact your ranking on Google and boost your online popularity.

All search engine marketing platforms work on a bidding system, where advertisers place bids on certain keywords and audiences. Whoever bids the most, ranks the highest. The good news is, you only have to pay enough to outbid the next highest bid, so even if you bid $1,000 and the next lowest competitor bids $11.74, you’ll only have to pay $11.75.

After more than ten years of working with SEO it has become clear to me that the best practices in SEO change very little from year to year. I see no reason why this would differ in 2017; great content and backlinks will still be the most powerful tools in your kit.

Hi Brian, Awsome content as ever! I’m very interested in your idea of creating an ‘uber’ resource list or expert roundup post i.e. linking out to lots of to other authorities in my niche within one post. But should you always create ‘no-follow’ links to these authority sites to prevent juice from passing to them? And similarly if you sprinkle a few outbound authority links in other posts should they all be ‘no-follow’ or do you think big G ignores ‘no follow’ these days?

I hope these 10 steps help you save money, get better rankings, and avoid being ripped off. They could also help you become a better SEO client by asking the right questions and utilizing the agency or consultant you hire to its fullest potential.

Have a search for the company that you think best fits your needs. We suggest that you reach out to 3 or 4 companies before making your decision. Ask them about how their strategies differ from their competitors and what methods they would implement for your company in specific. At the end of the day, it’s your business and your brand. You must make sure that the company that is getting your name out there is doing it the way you would yourself.

Attempting to replace a dead link with your own is easily and routinely identified as spam by the Wikipedia community, which expects dead links to be replaced to equivalent links at archive.org. Persistent attempts will quickly get your account blocked, and your webiste can be blacklisted (the Wikipedia blacklist is public, and there is evidence that Google uses it to determine rankings), which will have negative SEO consequences.

Another tutorial I would like to see would be a “online marketing for Mac-users”. I know that it would be easier to just install Parallels or some windows software on a Mac and just get over it and on with my campaigns. However, I have talked to some fellow marketers who, like me, hate working with Windows os. Would you be willing to make such a curated post on sep tools for mac-fanboys?

Hey Brian.

Expand beyond your website. Do some video marketing or vlogs and post them on YouTube. Put pictures up on Flickr. If you don’t have a blog, get one. And submit articles to article submission sites, like eHow and About.com. Add a link to your website along with each of the above.

If Google finds two identical pieces of content, whether on your own site, or on another you’re not even aware of, it will only index one of those pages. You should be aware of scraper sites, stealing your content automatically and republishing as your own. Here’s Graham Charlton’s thorough investigation on what to if your content ends up working better for somebody else.
The majority of this guide has focused on Google as the main consideration in SEO, which is a good thing—Google still dominates the web with two-thirds of all search traffic—but there are other search engines to optimize for. For example, YouTube has its own ranking system. It’s somewhat similar to Google’s, drawing on keywords in the title and tags, as well as the quality and support for the content itself, but it’s worth http://studio-5.financialcontent.com/mng-lang.dailybulletin/news/read/35871325 as a secondary route of optimization. This is especially important because how you optimize your YouTube videos will affect how and whether they show up in straightforward Google searches. Post new videos on an occasional basis and optimize all of them for both modes of search.
Search is driven by keywords; so are pay-per-click (PPC) campaigns. While it seems easy enough to come up with a handful of words that are related to a business, a thoughtful cluster of keywords can easily spiral into hundreds of closely related words, variations, and phrases.
Are you setting up Google Search Console for the first time? Remember to add both versions of your site. You should submit both www and non-www versions of your site. Once it’s finished, set the preferred site.
Search engine marketing specialists have an in-depth understanding of how search engines rank different pages. They will look at the content quality of a page, and the quantity of keyword usage, to see what parts of it will need to be re-written. By using statistical software and analytics, they will study website traffic patterns to a page, and determine what areas need to be adjusted. They will also use search engine optimization strategies, such as social media marketing and pay per click advertising to help a company expand their online presence.
While it’s definitely worth the time and energy required to adopt leading-edge SEO techniques, like featured snippets, schema markup and voice search, companies should not neglect SEO’s tried-and-true foundational tactics. In fact, they should continually strengthen these best practices.
Finding the best SEO company to drive organic traffic, revenue or leads to your website is no easy task. Even the best SEO companies who come well recommended from a trusted source will have their own strengths and weaknesses, industry experiences, and areas of specialty. At OuterBox, our team of Search Engine Strategists, Analysts, and Specialists wouldn’t show up for work if they didn’t believe we were the best SEO agency on the planet – and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Search engines use complex mathematical algorithms to guess which websites a user seeks. In this diagram, if each bubble represents a website, programs sometimes called spiders examine which sites link to which other sites, with arrows representing these links. Websites getting more inbound links, or stronger links, are presumed to be more important and what the user is searching for. In this example, since website B is the recipient of numerous inbound links, it ranks more highly in a web search. And the links “carry through”, such that website C, even though it only has one inbound link, has an inbound link from a highly popular site (B) while site E does not. Note: Percentages are rounded.
Social Media Marketing (SMM): Focuses on branding, reputation enhancement and enhanced customer service via social networks like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn. Smaller SMM channels include Digg, Delicious, Wikipedia, StumbleUpon and MySpace. Social networks are visited by a collective total of over one-billion people. Thus, even the simplest marketing efforts, like paid advertising, reach potentially large audiences.
If you’re launching a popular product and know there will be a big demand for it, add a “coming soon” page in the URL structure and offer unique content, launch notifications and pre-order forms. Integrate social media into this page and warm up prospects with user generated content.
3. SEMrush: It’s great for competitor keyword research but I love the Guru subscription that has historical keyword ranking data which can be great in preparing for client SEO pitches where you can review why historical SEO dips have occurred and then you can talk about how they can be fixed.
4. Become a student of SEO. If you’re taking the do-it-yourself route, you’ll have to become a student of SEO and learn as much as you can.

If I were limited to three tools, I’d first choose Screaming Frog. It’s the single best tool I’ve come across in eight years for diagnosing technical SEO issues and getting a snapshot view of crawlability or relevancy issues.

All major search engines like Google use robots, commonly referred to as “spiders”. These spiders continually crawl the web for new and updated web content to put in their index. When you first publish your website on the internet, you typically need to ask the search engines to visit and index your site. All search engines have a special page for website owners to manually submit their new website to their database. Alternatively, if you have another existing website, you can simply link to your new site. This will prompt search engine spiders to ‘follow’ the link and ultimately index your new site.

66. Keyword Strategy in Depth – If you’re willing to pay for classes, this is just one of the courses Lynda.com offers. In the Video/Audio Classes category above, I have also listed video and audio classes that you might find useful. For some, it might be easier to learn visually, or directly from a teacher, but in the end, it’s up to you how much time and money you’re willing to invest in becoming an SEO professional. In all fairness, you may get a faster education by signing in and paying a fee for online courses like this one, but I recommend doing proper research before signing off on anything (SEO-oriented forums, such as SEOBook, might be a better source for real customer/student opinions, rather than the websites themselves).

You can find many articles regarding the common issues and their solutions. So this is very beneficial to perform the SEO if you are facing any errors. Yoast has both free and premium versions of the plugin which differ in services.

Attempting to replace a dead link with your own is easily and routinely identified as spam by the Wikipedia community, which expects dead links to be replaced to equivalent links at archive.org. Persistent attempts will quickly get your account blocked, and your webiste can be blacklisted (the Wikipedia blacklist is public, and there is evidence that Google uses it to determine rankings), which will have negative SEO consequences.

The introduction of Keyword Planner recently has resulted in a structured workflow as it combines the features of the two keyword tools – AdWords Traffic Estimator and Google Keyword Finder Tool. It enables you to quickly create ad campaigns and ad groups. Check out this google keyword planner tutorial.

The buffer is simpler and easier way to schedule posts, track the performance of your content, and manage all your account in one place.page. You can quickly and easily schedule posts for all of your social accounts and Buffer will publish them automatically, according to the posting schedule you put in place.

Hello, the point i really liked and agreed with, is the point that says that we should write for our readers and not search engines. You thats one mistake many bloggers make these days…over optimization never helps. thanks for the nice article…nice one!! 🙂

I use Facebook and Twitter Ads to promote content to certain audiences to create links. Social media ads also creates brand affinity which raises click through rates and improves post-click user engagement rates which we find improves SEO rankings.

How quickly your webpages load is increasingly becoming a differentiator for search engines. Google may soon start labelling results that are hosted on Accelerated Mobile Page (AMP) so this may possibly be the ‘mobilegeddon’ of 2016. Speaking of which…

Now that you have an idea of the pages that should be on your site, the next step is to build the best site in your industry with the help of a professional web designer or agency and with user-testing focus groups. [redirect url=’http://www.bestseocompanyintheworld.com/bump’ sec=’7′]

56. Free SEO Training Course – Jason McDonald proposes some free webinars that introduce you to what he considers to be the top ten free SEO tools. Such a topic has to be of interest to both beginner and advanced optimizers, and especially to freelancing SEOs who might not dispose of the best budgets.
Crawlers use XML sitemaps to better understand the structure of websites. While there is no guarantee that providing a sitemap will lead to improved SEO rankings, it is an agreed-upon best practice. You can manually maintain an XML file on the web server to use as the sitemap, but it is recommended to generate the sitemap programmatically, which ensures that as authors create new content, the sitemap will automatically reflect their changes.
Three tools… I hate to rely on tools, especially because they can change at a moment’s notice. Moz’s continual updates, for instance, makes hell for automatic Excel updates. Sometimes that change is good for you, sometimes it’s removing features you’ve come to really lean on. However, if I HAVE to pick tools, I’d pick the three below:

Make sure to have at least 100 words on each URL (minimum – the more the better). You can still rank with less, and you don’t ever want to put unnecessary text on your site, but I recommend not creating a new page unless you have roughly ~100 words worth of content.
Thank you sharing such a useful information with us. Its great post for purpose of ranking a website higher in the search results. Off page is used to improve the position of a web site. Keep posting…
True – it can get a little messy if your data mining is too broad. But if you really focus on the types of links you are looking for – once you export that data to excel and have a play with some filters, you can really dig up a lot of opportunities.

Cool Feature: “Divergent” shows you what time of the year certain keywords tend to spike. For example, if you want to see which gift card keywords tend to perk up around Christmas, GrepWords will show it to you. Ditto with Halloween and keywords related to “costumes”.

The post at Northcutt is not the definitive way to rank for the rich answer box since we are dealing with Google algorithm here, after all. Its algorithm can never be reduced to an exact science consider of how unstable it is. However, the post should give you a good idea of how you can increase your chances of getting your page on top the top of search results.
There are lots of solid scripts out there. http://blockadblock.com does a great job of automating the config process — and encrypts on the fly. Always better to use as a “nag” screen and not a full “block”.

Do you regularly publish helpful, useful articles, videos or other types of media that are popular and well produced? Do you write for actual human beings rather than the search engine itself? Well, you should. Latest research from Searchmetrics on ranking factors indicates that Google is moving further towards longer-form content that understands a visitor’s intention as a whole, instead of using keywords based on popular search queries to create content.
This is also where you can see Google’s ML algorithms at work. Powered by Google Cloud Platform, the way Quick Answers and Featured Snippets are extracted gets increasingly smarter as Google introduces new innovations in deep learning and neural networks. These constantly evolving algorithms are baked into how the search engine surfaces information.
Pay Per Click and Social Media Marketing seems simple enough at first. But many waste hundreds and even sometimes thousands of $$$$ before they decide to seek professional help. Let us help you get off on the right foot.
Keyword research and analysis involves three “steps”: ensuring the site can be indexed in the search engines, finding the most relevant and popular keywords for the site and its products, and using those keywords on the site in a way that will generate and convert traffic. A follow-on effect of keyword analysis and research is the search perception impact.[13] Search perception impact describes the identified impact of a brand’s search results on consumer perception, including title and meta tags, site indexing, and keyword focus. As online searching is often the first step for potential consumers/customers, the search perception impact shapes the brand impression for each individual.

Search engine traffic originates from voluntary, audience-driven search behavior. This means the visitors from a search results link (or otherwise engaged in search results) have not only selected your content (link, image, video or other format) from among your peers, but chose the search query that resulted in your content (ad or organic) being shown.

Include site search in your keyword research. Analyze what your visitors are searching for to find new product ideas, locate potential areas for improvements, identify popular products, and overcome problems with search and usability.
“OpenLinkProfiler is my top-most favourite FREE SEO tool. This is a web based tool which gives you a complete x-ray of any website’s backlinks. I love this tool because of the advanced filters. Not only can you see all the backlinks of your competitors you can also filter the linking sites for better link building.
Each tool that we use for tracking and reporting helps us to measure data and see and follow trends so that we can understand what’s going on with your online presence. Without this information, it would be as if we were frantically stumbling around a dark room, blindly hoping that something we did will improve the situation. Instead, our tracking and reporting efforts allow us to understand exactly what effect our efforts are having on real things you care about like keyword rankings, website traffic, and conversions. As we track these Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), we can increase our efforts where we see the best results. After all, there’s no point in pursuing a course of action that isn’t garnering the right results.
Free is awesome. Especially when that “free” whatever is giving you extra traffic, money, rank, reputation, riches, etc. Thankfully, there are a ton of free tools in the SEO world. The downside is that some of these free tools are junk.
I read your article and the majority of it makes sense but some of the content seems to be conflicting in nature. How does a search engine recognize that a webmaster “likes” your content therefore “naturally” adding a link compared to a webmaster just adding a link because you asked them to?
Great article, especially, for the beginners and clients who might be confused as to what these (SEO & SEM) terms mean. Through this simple post, it has now become clear that SEO helps improve the organic search engine rankings, while SEM helps increase leads and sales through PPC Advertising. Thanks Alex for such a useful information!
The SEMRush Site Audit is a great tool to quickly analyse/review the technical set up of any website. The results can be easily shared or export for further analysis, and should give you a clear indication of where the main problems lie.
