SEO Tips For Small Business - Climaxbox by akinjuly77(m): 2:37pm On Dec 05, 2016
Hello, Am Akinyemi of Climaxbox Digital Marketing Agency , let me introduce SEO Tips for Small Business

1. No SEO means no visitors from search engines. If you don’t do it then search engines can’t categorise and rank your site for keywords relevant to your business.

2. Both on-site SEO and off-site SEO are required. You can’t achieve good results doing one without the other.

3. Start doing SEO now. The longer you leave it to start, the further ahead your competitors will be, and the harder it becomes to rank higher than them.

4. Know your competition. Find out what the sites ranking on the 1st page for the keywords that you want to rank for have done, on-site and off-site, to get there

5. No two websites are the same. An SEO strategy that worked for someone else’s site isn’t guaranteed to work for yours because there are so many variables.

6. SEO doesn’t have to be expensive. You can get big results on a small budget if you invest time in creating good content and building online relationships. [url=climaxbox.com]If you are a Small Business Contact Climaxbox[/url]

7. SEO results aren’t instant The results of SEO work done today might not become apparent, and might not be credited by search engines, for weeks, or even months.

8. The newer your website is, the more patient you will need to be. It takes time to build authority and trust, and until you’ve developed both, you shouldn’t expect to outrank older, more established sites.

9. Never consider your website to be finished. If you want your site to continue to rank higher, attract more visitors and make more sales, then you should always be adding to and improving it.

10. Adapt to algorithm updates. To attain and retain good rankings you need to adapt your SEO strategy as search engines evolve over time.

11. Get advice directly from Google. Via their Webmaster Guidelines and Webmaster Help Videos.

12. Don’t risk Google penalties. As they have a significant share of the search market, a penalty from them results in a significant, and often long-term, loss of visitors to your site.

13. You’re ultimately responsible for all of SEO work done on your website. Search engines won’t remove a penalty on the basis that you didn’t do, and didn’t know the specifics of, the SEO work on your site.

14. Set-up and use Google Search Console. To find out, among other things, what keywords your site is ranking for and which other sites are linking to yours.

15. Set-up a Google+ page for your business. Doing so builds trust with Google and improves rankings for localised keywords.

16. Create content primarily for people, not search engines. There’s no point creating content that ranks well if it doesn’t help people, interest them, or persuade them to buy from you.

17. Remove duplicate content. You can be penalised for having the same, or very similar, content on multiple pages of your site.

18. Ensure your content is good enough to be on the 1st page. If your content isn’t better than the content already on the 1st page for a keyword then your site doesn’t deserve to rank there

19. More content equals more rankings, more visitors and more sales. Search engines reward, and visitors trust more, sites that are filled with lots of pages of good quality content

20. Write a unique, descriptive title for every page. Within 55 characters you need to make the topic of a page clear to both humans and search engines.

21. Contact small businesses with relevant websites. A good relationship, in which you help promote each others’ sites, makes SEO simpler and cheaper for you and for them

22. Leave comments on relevant websites and blogs. Doing so builds trust and relationships with people – both the site owners and visitors to those sites

23. Research keywords before optimising for them. If you choose the wrong keywords, regardless of what you do for on-site and off-site SEO, you’ll get very few visitors and/or visitors who don’t convert into sales

24. Use Google’s Keyword Tool or Google Trends It provides a good list of words and phrases related to the keyword ideas that you enter into it

25. Ask customers to leave reviews on Google+ and local directories. Positive reviews improve your rankings in Google’s local listings and can be accessed directly from the search results

26. Don’t worry about PageRank. Sites with a low PR can, and often do, outrank sites with a high PR

27. Use rich snippets. They provide additional data about your site to search engines and can improve the appearance of your site’s listing in search results you can make use of Schema to markup your site Data.

28. Optimise your images. Include a page’s target keyword phrase, or variations of it, in the file names and img alt tags of the images on that page

29. Maximise your website’s loading speed. Use Google’s site speed tool and implement the recommendations that they give you

30. Use a reliable web hosting company. Your site’s keyword rankings will be downgraded if your site is regularly inaccessible

31. Engage with your SEO consultant The more you know about SEO, and the more a consultant knows about your business, the better the results will be.
