This guide will help you navigate the evolving landscape of SEO practices effectively.
What is SEO?
Before you start with the guide, it is essential for you to understand that what is SEO. SEO or search engine optimization is a process to improve the visibility / ranking of the website’s keywords in the search engines’ “natural” / “organic” or un-paid search results. Yet, I am not going in to much details about it as you may be able to find a tons of content about it across the internet.
So now, when you have understand “What is SEO?” let us quickly go through the steps that can help boost your website’s ranking in the search engines.
What should be done?
1) Blog Content Writing and Submissions
Search engines such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo have something called crawlers and bots, which analyzes your website’s content quality. This quality content analysis includes aspects such as plagiarism check, quality of the content, user-friendliness of the contents, keywords integration and so on. As per the Google, one must provide the content in such a way that it represents your expertise and knowledge over the subject, and not in a way representing that you are trying to sell something. This is why it is been said that “Content is King.”
Hence, in order for you to increase your website’s ranking in the search engine, it is essential for you to write and provide good quality contents towards your reader, which not only limits to the web contents of your website, but also with the blog content writing and submissions.
The reason behind this is that when it comes to web contents, there is always a limitation. You have a limited amount of space and characters to display content. This limitation is further compounded by the need for quality content that is attractive and eye-catching. Blog content writing and submissions overcome these limitations of web content, allowing you to post and publish content without restrictions on numbers or characters. With each new blog post, you can provide rich, niche, and new information about your business to your website’s visitors.
These new and quality contents, thereby leads the Google and other search engines to understand your overall website’s and business offering, and will lead you to earn good position. The best way to start blog content writing and submissions with blogging is to create a blog site, along with your company’s website. For e.g., company website as www.example.com, hence the blog site should be www.example.com/blogs
Please Note: Yet, don’t purely depend on blog content writing and submissions, as blogging is one of the many parts of SEO*
I will continue with the next part soon, by the time I would appreciate if you could go through the above two sections carefully “What is SEO?” and “Blogging”, and familiarize with it. As always, you can also depend over the internet, where you can gather tons of other information over the subject.
