When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There's a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk alone

Let me give a free advice to bloggers and web owners

Ranking on Google is more than keyword research, quality contents and length of contents (even as I would advice you checked it on your list).


There's something called UX/UI. These are better ranking factor for any search engine but maybe only Google is adopting it.

Q&A sites like Quora is using a part too, which is the comment system to determine and rank relevant contents. So the more the comments on your answer, the more your relevance. Not necessarily upvote anymore.

But as far as Google is concerned, it's more than just comment counts.

They want a quality user experience and that can easily reflect in your...

* Time on page
* Comment count
* Page views per person and
* Bounce rate.

If all these are in proper condition, what it tells them is that your content is the best available for the very keyword and so, you can remain on first page for many years.

For the User Interface, Google want a site that's conscious of technical SEO. Unfortunately, things like meta tags and descriptions that used to be very relevant still does but doesn't matter. I've ranked a site without those before.

What technical SEO means to Google is...

* Page size (his many MB is your theme/templates) unfortunately many web owners/blogger don't care about this, probably because the theme was gotten free and even when you buy theme, size is a big consideration.

* Page speed/loading time. This obviously is a turn off to Google and unfortunately, it affects the user experience by increasing your blog's bounce rate. Mind you, images and videos and all others will be on your blog, that's adding the original size of the theme. Hence, images in PNG format would be harmful. For me, I would say even if you'd like to stuff any page, free the page carrying the domain name, which is your home page, you can then redirect to any heavy page you've got if you must.

This last one is

* Http page requests

Now understand that this has nothing to do with your robot.txt, sitemap, H1 tags (another uncared area), page title and meta description.


Before, I stop on this, your blog topic URL is not advisable to carry TIME STAMP. I had to put that in caps because it's serious and this is one common mistake I see when I run SEO analysis on the blog of my clients. You can fix that yourself.

The damage is that, once your blog topics carry time stamp, Google sees you as been relevant ONLY to the date and time of the year that content was posted even if its an evergreen contents. That's an ignorant loss of organic traffic.

Having said these, I wish you the best in the continuous desire to be ranked on Google's first page. Organic traffic is the best you can give your blog no doubt.
