Thursday, July 9, 2015
For any company to succeed online you have to take optimization into consideration. Whether you are currently using a professional service provider or not, most companies know the importance of keywords in their webpages, their blogs, their articles and press releases. What you may not have realised is the importance of optimization when it comes to your Social Networking.
These days every company needs to focus on their social media optimization. It is just as important as your professionally designed website, you're on page optimization and all your internet marketing efforts combined. Thousands of people log into their social media accounts each and every day around the world, it has become one of the most effective online marketing tools and it is growing on a daily basis.
Before you can understand why social media optimization is so important to the success of your business, both online and offline, you need to understand what it entails. Wikipedia's description of social media explains it best. "Social media are computer-mediated tools that allow people to create, share or exchange information, ideas, and pictures/videos."
As you can imagine as a business of any kind, having customers share your information with their friends, family and colleagues is a great way to boost your brand visibility. It can help you improve your customer base and increase your revenue moving forward.

The art to social media optimization is to ensure that your pages are updated on a regular basis. The more you update, the more your potential customers will see your name and read what you have to share. The general rule of thumb is that blogs should be updated at least once a week, ideally twice or more. Facebook should be updated at least once a day and Twitter should be updated numerous times throughout the day, ensuring that when your potential customers log into their page, they immediately see one of your posts, with a link directing them back to your website.

SEO Myths Busted

Thursday, July 9, 2015
Link Building Is History
Wouldn't it be nice to never to build another link to your website? If you realize the truth, this is not the field of dreams. Still if you want, you can build it but you won`t have traffic! This ultimately concludes links aren`t dead, and you still need them! However, the tactics have sure changed. Now you can`t go to the superstore and buy a bunch of links. Instead, you have to hire a pro to help you with it!
Ranking Is Not Important
I hear this all of the time. I can accept that there is a little sense, but it's completely deceptive. The fact is, there are no true tops anymore. As Geolocation and personalization with other factors are counted, no one can pull a definite top 10. Surprisingly, it`s not called ranking anymore. Instead, it now goes by the name of positioning. You need to go for a branding, instead of having rush SEO campaigns and seeing a high rankings happily on Google.
There three things to be considered to make your branding authority:
  • Content authority
  • Quality Authority links
  • Social media
You need to present your product or service in a compelling way. Presenting the information with credits can give your brand name an authority. Credit giving means taking information from other resources and giving them credit to own that information, which means you are taking that idea or information, but you are just discussing that link post in your post in a positive way. This will avoid any dispute you are getting information from.
Build and They Will Come by Themselves
Nice one, this is perhaps the favorite quote of content marketers. Build a great website and traffic will come. To me, this is comical but let`s get realistic if marketing was that easy. I bet every SEO professional would either be broke or converted to a writer. Content writing no doubt is an important part of SEO. However, this doesn`t say you don`t need fast page downloads, strong technical base, and others. Focus on your content but don`t forget your SEO tactics.
Google Spies through Google Analytics
There is no doubt that analytics is a must have for everyone. But everyone one of us knows someone who doesn't put analytics on his blog because he firmly believes Google spies through it! Well, I am not going to lecture about it but Google have better things to do! Analytics is your lifeline and backbone; you can`t alter this fact on behalf of what you are told or believe!

Do-It-Yourself Route To Auditing Your Website's Onsite SEO

Thursday, July 9, 2015
Auditing a website's onsite SEO practices can be difficult with little or no relevance given to it. I just finished my own website's audit and while the process takes a while going through the motions with a checklist in hand, it fixed a lot of issues I did not know about and probably were hampering my rankings.
There are many factors that sum up perfect onsite optimization, and one must be thorough with each one of them. Offsite SEO won't be as effective as you want it to, if these problems are left unsolved and the gravity of each unsolved issue might compound to another whole level with time. So, here is how you perform a comprehensive onsite audit by yourself.
Broken Links
Use Screaming Frog to check for broken links on your website. Screaming frog will crawl through your website, page by page, and report to you all links with invalid URLs. You must change the URLs with valid ones or remove those links entirely. Screaming Frog also provides tools for other steps of the process that we'll discuss later.
Sitemap Integrity
A sitemap is a well-formed structured data referencing to the pages that you want search engines to crawl. There may be some pages that are not linked to anything, which can only be found via the sitemap, hence its necessity. The best way to do this is to generate a new sitemap. A tool named Xenu Link Sleuth is the perfect tool for this job and you may use that along with many other to generate sitemaps in a variety of formats including Google's essential XML sitemap.
Fix 404s - save the embarrassment
Sometimes Google finds an imaginary page on your website (or so they say). They page may have been there in the past, or not at all. Still Google thinks it's there and shows it in the results. Now Google is disappointed at the 404 error since the page wasn't found this time around, so you need to fix this. Assuming you've got Google Webmasters Tools or as they call it 'Search Console' hooked onto your website, just click on Crawl and then go to Crawl Errors section. You'll find all the Google Violations you've committed. To fix them, you need to either create a page on that URL or redirect it an existing page with the same topic.
Beware of Duplicate Content
Use Copyscape to scan each URL of your website and find any duplicate content you may have posted on your website. Any form of plagiarism is penalized by Google and you must make sure you are not plagiarizing someone's content. The best approach in such a scenario is to delete the page found to be plagiarizing someone's content, and publish one on the same topic a few days later.
Thin Content Devalues Your Website
Any webpage with under 300 words of content is considered thin. You must either combine all thin content pages or remove the ones which are not absolutely essential.
Content & Factual Errors
There are two types of errors that can crop up in content; grammatical and factual. Grammatical errors require some proofreading to fix, and it's a simple fix to make. Just make sure you update your "last updated" date in your sitemap, so Google knows to reindex the page with the error-free version.
Factual errors are a bit harder to deal with. If your page is old and what it says was factual at the time, you don't need to do anything except maybe add a disclaimer that the advice is out of date. It's also an opportunity to create new, updated content, if it's still relevant. The choice is yours.
There's a major caveat with content; it gets outdated. The things to get updated are either grammatical errors you've published or facts and figures that may have been outdated with time. Both need to be corrected.
The above covers all major onsite optimization processes and once you're done with it, your website shall be able to get the maximum benefit from SEO techniques and marketing.

A Look at the Top 5 SEO Tools of 2015

Thursday, July 9, 2015
The web world is extremely volatile and so tools appear and disappear pretty consistently. Some of them retain their position as top SEO tools. A look at the best SEO tools of 2015 would make an interesting reading.
Search Engine Optimization is an indispensable part of business promotion. It gives the brand required recognition and keeps it in view of the potential buyers. For efficient web optimization a webmaster or entrepreneur needs SEO tools. However, only top SEO tools can serve the purpose satisfactorily.
Like all other areas of the technical world, information technology industry is extremely volatile. Many SEO tools appear and then disappear after being unsuccessful. The principle of survival of the fittest applies aptly to the world of technology too, and only the best SEO software stays longer after being accepted by the users. It is almost half way through 2015 and a look at the best SEO tools of the year could be pertinent for the end users. Each of these tools serves a specific purpose for the user.
Website Health Checking Tool- SEM-Rush
SEM-Rush is one of the best website health checking tools. It shows the number of keywords for which the site is ranked on leading search engines including Google. If a site has huge inbound links, but no keyword ranking it is more likely that the site has been penalized. SEM-Rush thus constitutes an excellent keyword searching tool.
Free SEO Ranking Tool - Google Search Engine Page Ranking
Google search engine page ranking is a free SEO ranking tool and it ranks among the best SEO software for the purpose. Though it is present at the beta testing level, it gives the user daily updated statistics on SEO ranking. The tool dispenses the necessity for the user to type in the keywords and search page by page on Google or other leading search engine result pages.
Free Quality Alternative - Uber Suggest
Many webmasters use the Google keyword planner as well as uber suggest for finding popular keywords. However, there is an excellent free alternative to them in the form of keyword tool that is equally efficient in carrying out the task. It can generate as many as 750 suggestions for every keyword with just one click. Also, when coupled with Google search engine page ranking it can generate excellent custom reports for the clients.
Industry Standard Back Link Checking Tool: Ahref
Ahrefs is an industry standard analyzing tool that checks all the backlinks for any URL. There are a few others like the majestic sea and the SEOMoz but none is as effective in checking and analyzing back links as the ahrefs. It is one of the best SEO software that generates information about total inbound links, unique domains, gain and loss of link chart and tweets, likes, shares as well as G+ among others.
New and Efficient 2015 SEO Software: Vectorfy
Vectorfy is comparatively newer in the field and is a content relevancy tool. Despite being new, it is extremely vibrant and efficient. It can tell the user the number of keywords to be used within the content to make it commensurate with the Google algorithm.
There are many others in the realm of search engine optimization. But these are some of the top SEO tools that deserve special mention for their effectiveness.

Taking A Look At The Pros And Cons Of SEO

Thursday, July 9, 2015
SEO has been around for a long time and by the look of things, it's not going away any time soon. To know more about SEO here are some of its pros and cons.
Pros Of SEO
Cheap: when you compare it to other marketing strategies such as Pay Per Click (PPC), you will find that SEO is very cheap. All you need to do is to create content that is engaging and then promote it. If you don't have money to hire a professional writer to write the content for you, you should write your own content thus save money. For ideal results, you should undertake thorough keyword research to ensure that you are using the right keyword. You also need to ensure that your content is engaging.
Higher conversion rates: since most of the people visiting your site will be looking for products or services that you are selling, they will most likely buy from you. Research studies have shown that the conversion rates for SEO can go to as high as 14.6%. This conversion is much higher than that obtained from email marketing or print advertising. The high conversion rate results to more sales and profits.
You become an authority: since you have to create great content for you to get ideal results, over time you become an authority in your niche. Due to the plenty of information, many people will be visiting your site to seek solutions to their problems. To retain the authority status you should develop trust with your audience. You should also share plenty of valuable, free information.
Cons Of SEO
Lack of instant results: unlike PPC and other marketing campaigns where you get immediate results, SEO requires time for you to have ideal results. This means that you shouldn't write one, well-optimized article and think that you will see an instant bump up in your search results-you need to be patient. You should continue adding high quality content to your site and will see your ranking increasing.
You should note that while you need to be patient for you to see results, the results are usually long lasting.
Penalization: Google keeps on coming up with updates that aim at penalizing wrong SEO practices. The most recent updates are Panda, Penguin and Hummingbird. To avoid the penalization you need to undertake white hat SEO. You also need to update yourself in order to know the best SEO practices to engage in.

Why Smart Marketers Take SEO Seriously

Thursday, July 9, 2015
Did you ever wonder why, when you do a Google search for a keyword or keyphrase, some results come up first on the result page while others are farther below? Did you even ask how Google determines which websites to show on the first page of the results and which to show on page 10?
Well, the answer is simple. Search engines use advanced filtering technology that determines the most relevant results to a search query based on over 200 algorithms or factors.
How does knowing the above benefit you?
Simple! It affords you the grace to do some acceptable SEO tactics and avoid the bad ones.
Fine, but what is SEO?
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the technique of hinting search engines that your website is (or is among) the most relevant search results for a particular keyword or keyphrase.
It is a search engine's job to showcase the highest quality and most relevant webpages when a user searches for a query; SEO is how you optimize your webpage to make it relevant to queries that your target visitors use in search engines. With higher website rankings, you'll get more traffic to your website which equals more money for you (assuming you convert them well).
SEO traffic is pure gold
There are many ways to get traffic to your website but there's no better way to get consistent, free, targeted traffic other than SEO.
When you publish a new post and share it on social media, you'll get free traffic for a few days but that's not consistent.
When you pay for Facebook Adverts, Google AdWords or other pay per click traffic sources, you'll consistently get traffic to your website. Since you're paying money to get the traffic, it is not free. You'll have to continuously pay for the adverts to keep getting the traffic.
When you get referral traffic from other websites, forums or blog directories, the traffic may be free and consistent but might not be targeted.
SEO traffic is targeted because the people who found your website through search engines are already looking for the exact content, product or services you're offering on your website. So it's easy to convert them into subscribers, clients or even brand advocates.
So if you do SEO properly, free, targeted traffic will consistently pour into your website month after month without you doing extra work or spending extra money.
So that's it.
Yes, I've not told you how to do SEO. That's not the focus of this piece. My aim is to make you see the big picture and how important SEO is.
So whether you're just getting ready to start your blog or you have one you want to grow, make SEO one of your traffic and growth strategies.
