Will #Google turn the natural search landscape upside down in 2021? It’s unlikely. Although change is inevitable, you can survive or even gain an edge with a little vigilance. But don’t expect any relief from the merciless #trend of #organicresults moving way down the #SEARCHENGINERESULTSPAGES (#SERPs). Like any good #CONTENTMARKETER, #Google is focused on the needs of its #audience – #searchers.
Fortunately, #marketers still see #traffic from #Google and other major #searchengines. #Organicsearches accounted for 53% of #websitetraffic in 2019. To help you manage your #SEO efforts this year, here are 10 QUICK-HIT #SEOTIPS and reminders. Use the #tactics and #insights that best match your #goals.
PROTECT YOUR GROUND If you have #pages that already #rank well, guard them. #TRACK THEIR #PERFORMANCE, BUT DON’T GET GREEDY AND MANIPULATE THEM TO SQUEEZE OUT MORE #RANKINGS.
CREATE NEW #CONTENT WITH #SEO IN MIND New #content – whether it’s one #page or an entire topic cluster – gives you a fresh chance to get everything right
Devote time to finding out WHETHER #GOOGLE CRAWLS YOUR #PAGES
DON’T FREEZE Too often, #marketers crank out #pages, “optimize” them, and never return. While you probably can’t do it for every #page, make time to #optimize essential #pages and any #pages close to ranking on the first #page of #Google #searchresults.
REMEMBER #QUALITY ISN’T A GUARANTEE OF #SEO SUCCESS
FIND YOUR SWEET SPOT Be #realistic with #keywordchoices. Does it make sense to go after #keywordphrases that are searched 5,000 times a month if your sweet spot shows your existing top 10 #keywords typically are searched 50 to 300 times a month?
FOCUS ON #PAGE LOAD SPEED I believe #page load speed is a nominal ranking factor (many enterprise #websitesrank well even if they don’t appear as quickly as they should).
FAVOR CLEAN, SHORT #URLS
You can help #website pages load quickly with small image file sizes. A simple compression tool is ImageOPTIM. BE SURE TO USE #KEYWORDS IN THE FILE NAME AND COMPLEMENT THEM WITH #ALTTEXT.
