11 SEO Techniques and Strategies
With every upload to the internet,
there is only one subliminal message echoing through the void expanse of
websites: Keep up.
Naturally, it is not expected of you
to ‘keep up’ with everything the internet offers-it is not possible. However,
if you are someone who contributes to the mass of knowledge that is the
internet, then your aim should be to put your content out there, right in
everyone’s faces and make them WANT to read it.
Of course, if it was that easy,
everyone would know everything and the search engines would become pointless. Today, only the smartest search engine optimizers with latest
SEO techniques and strategies, and the best content writers reach the pedestal
where they are the number one hit on the SERPs.
We are here to help you get there.
Pay attention to our following tips
to learn the advanced SEO strategies in 2017, and start
working on it before this year ends:
1. Mobile is the future
Something that almost everyone
understands. It makes sense too. Do you think people in the future will walk
around with desktops? No, because its ridiculous.
The vast population of people who
are on the move use mobile devices for all their internet purposes. Many even
use it at home. A lot don’t even own laptops.
Start working on a website that is
mobile friendly or custom-made for it. Not doing so is guaranteeing yourself a
setback.
Our personal advice: Go responsive instead of
making a special website for mobiles. RWD is not a joke, and will be a better
option.
2. The rise of voice search
Some movies do very little to limit
our imagination of future technologies. Being able to speak to machines and
having them work for us was among the top of the list for the R&D of
various companies. Today, it is possible. Those who use ‘Siri’ on their iPhones
are no strangers to this fact.
The time has come to include a
recording button on your website to entertain voice requests and serve people
better. This will free the user to put their fingers to better use like holding
the morning coffee on the way to work, etc.
After all, who wants to type so
much?
3. Make your site super-fast
Not everyone has access to
high-speed internet. There are more complaints about slow internet speed than
there are users. In the midst of all this, if your site has the audacity to
load slowly and take its own sweet time through the tough hustle in the lives
of the users — Don’t even bother optimizing your sites. Without speed, there is nothing.
Optimize the formats and responsive
sizes of the media that you have uploaded onto your website and eliminate loose
links and pointless data that slows down loading time.
Remember: its a race.
4. Make your website mobile friendly
Do I need a mobile friendly website?
Have you ever asked yourself this
question? The truth is, a major section of target audiences are surfing
internet through their smart phones; if you haven’t done it already get it
right now.
Google has already programmed an
algorithm on April 21, 2015 that the sites which are mobile friendly in nature
will be given higher priority and rank them better in search results. They have
given clear guidelines about how to make a website mobile friendly.
Use the Mobile-Friendly Test tool by Google to see if
pages on your site are mobile-friendly or not.
