10 Best SEO Techniques For 2013

2013-07-20T02:17:00.000-07:00

1. Analyze your website

When you are struggling to get up on a list, you always have competitors working for the same goal. The most important thing to do first is keep reviewing your website. Make sure it is better than others in all aspects

2. Keep Your Content Clean

Ensure clarity and ease of navigation through your website. Keep cleaning your site and remove the irrelevant content

3. Write a good Title & Description

SERP shows a list of results for a search query. Each result is displayed as a Title, a summarized description and the URL it can be accessed from. One of the variables Google uses for ranking is determined by how many times a particular page is clicked. This variable is called the Click-through rate (CTR).This means even if your page is displayed on the first page and it is not clicked by the searchers, Google will end up downgrading your page to a lower rank.

4. Create a natural link profile

Google is smarter than many bloggers thought it was. The recent updates in its algorithms have identified a lot of websites that had been engaged in illegal means of link building like buying them or being involved in link farming. If your site is also doing one of these practices then it runs the risk of being located by Google and banned to be displayed on the results page at all.

5. Content plan

Previously, it wasn’t as important to have new content or be concerned with the amount users get engaged with. However, changes in algorithms have made it increasingly important to keep adding content to the site and keep tabs on the activities of users on your website since Google now takes that into consideration. In short, users should not only be visiting your site but also be interested enough to share the content.

6. Integrate Social Sharing

Social networking has taken over the world of internet surfing, you should make sure you are taking full advantage of this trend. Make your content easily sharable on these sites

8. Promote the authority

Google has come up with a new variable that it gives a lot of attention to while ranking a page. AuthorRank is the new factor that takes into consideration the individual contributors to a blog or website.

9. Create a mobi-friendly website

Reports suggest in certain areas of the world like South Africa 60% search queries are punched in through mobile devices and through social media networks on these mobile devices. With the advancements of mobile technology more users are moving towards mobile friendly websites than desktop sites and hence, their growth rate is very high comparative to desktop websites.

10. Localize your content

Reports indicate that around 40% of the users intend to perform a locality based search query. After typing in the search query users usually add in a postal code or geographic location to seek a local information.

New Google Panda Update Rolling Out Now: What Changes Are Webmasters Seeing?

2013-07-20T02:07:00.000-07:00

Despite Google stating they would no longer confirm any of the rolling Panda updates, they seem to have gone back on that and confirmed that yes a new Panda began going live on July 18. However, unlike many of the previous Panda updates, many webmasters have noticed that it does not have as wide of an impact as previous updates.

Matt Cutts has previously stated that Panda updates would rollout over course of 10 days each month, to soften the impact that it has on webmasters when the change happens at once. However, this does make a lot more difficult for webmasters to sometimes determine what is a normal fluctuation and what is actually a new Panda rollout.
For those who actively monitor search key phrases, there is definitely been a lot of fluctuation even on an hourly basis. Some sites will rank for a specific keyword phrase, vanishing hour later, and the return sometimes in relatively the same position other times completely different result pages even.
A lot of people in their Google Webmaster Tools data have noticed that they are getting some definite increase in the number of impressions that they are displaying, but the traffic has remained stable. This is raising the question if Google Webmaster Tools is somehow measuring impressions differently or if there is something else that would account for such an increase in impressions while the click throughs are static.
Something that is noticeable is that a lot of informational sites, both large ones and small ones are being heavily impacted with this new rollout. This includes the big names of the informational sites, such as Wikipedia, and about.com where there are definite changes happening in their rankings.
Google has previously stated that they want to give authority sites a bit more prominence in the search results. Of course, that also means that they need to update their signals in the search algorithm on how Google is determining what is authority versus what are simply spam sites mimicking the authority. This update seems to be targeting authoritative sites – and more specifically what should be considered an authority website and what shouldn’t be.
There has also been a bit of chatter that sites that have fared better in this update are active in using Google+. Some sites that saw a decline in rankings have seen them restored or increased in this new rollout when Google+ activity for the site has been done. While this does make people a bit wary that Google is rewarding sites that are on Google+, it has been no secret that it is one of the signals that many believe have has impact on the ranking algorithm.
There is also speculation that some sites that have gotten caught in a previous Panda update, where they have received warnings for unnatural linking, that some of those impacted sites are now ranking again. The member CaptainSalad2 on WebmasterWorld stated a site began ranking again after removing the disavow links that was submitted the same day the tool was originally released last year, which was also the only change made to that site.
While this latest the Google panda update seems to be of a much softer impact than we have seen from previous updates, it is also worth noting that these rollouts generally occur over 10 days and we are only two days into that. So we definitely could see more fluctuations in search results over the next 10 days while Google watches to see how this new update is impacting the search results, particularly spam and authority sites, and then continue to rollout the update and also tweak the algorithm accordingly.

On page and Off page optimization

2012-03-18T05:56:00.002-07:00

SEO On-Page Optimization

On page search engine optimization is a primary way to get targeted customers to your page. With the right amount of smart work, you can find your pages at or near the top of the search engine page results.
On-page optimization factors are related directly to the content and structure of the web site such as Meta tags, Navigation, Page Content, Internal Links, Keywords, H1 and H2 tags, Keyword density, Keyword Placement.

Meta Data: Meta data is information that is found within each web page. The main meta data fields used are page title, description and keywords.
Navigation: This will determine if search engines can access all the pages within your site and more so, how effectively. Text or CSS based navigation for better indexation and optimization.
Page Content: How content is written for your website can also affect the performance of your site within search engines, this includes headings and formatting.
Internal Linking: Linking is the action where by one page is linked via either text or an image to another page within your website.
Coding or HTML Tags: How a web page is built can considerably affect how it performs within the search engines.
H1 and H2 tags: They tell the search engines that what you are putting between the tags is important in they should pay attention. You should only have one H1 tag per page.
Keywords: The main words that you want your web page to be found in the search engines. Each page should only have one or two primary keywords or keyword phrases that you are focusing on. Keywords should be used early and often on your page, preferably in the first paragraph and should also be used in the last paragraph.
Cascading Style Sheet (CSS): Styles define how to display HTML elements. CSS can be used locally by the readers of web pages to define colors, fonts, layout, and other aspects of document presentation.
Keyword density: This is the percentage of times a keyword or phrase appears on a web page compared to the total number of words on the page. It can be used as a factor in determining whether a web page is relevant to a specified keyword or keyword phrase. Keyword density, which is the percentage of times a keyword is used on a page should typically be in the three to eight percent range. You should not stuff keywords in your page, because the search engines could see that as spam.
Keyword Placement: Placing the keywords on the proper place in the body and getting good placement for them in the search engines.

Adding the meta tags in blogger

2012-03-10T04:46:00.000-08:00

So I’m going to explain method no.2, here it is:

First go to Dashboard > Design > Edit HTML and find this line in your blog template HTML codes:

1 <b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>
Then put the meta tags code immediately below that line. The final result should be as shown below.

view source print ?

1 <b:include data='blog' name='all-head-content'/>

2 <meta content='PUT KEYWORDS HERE SEPARATED BY COMMAS' name='keywords'/>

3 <b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == "index"'>

4 <meta content='PUT BLOG DESCRIPTION HERE' name='description'/>

5 </b:if>

What this code does is apply the keyword meta tag to all pages and limit description meta tag to only your homepage.
Save the template.

A Detailed Guide To Write An SEO Optimized Blog Post in WordPress

2012-03-06T06:39:00.001-08:00

If the content is the King, we can say SEO is the Queen. 1WD has already brought you a lot of articles on SEO to help you optimize your blog and make it search engine friendly so you can increase your traffic and your sales. Today I will talk about WordPress SEO Optimization, being that it’s the most used platform by self hosted blogs. They say that WordPress is SEO Optimized which is the reason they use it, but it’s not fully SEO Optimized and so to reach the 100% you have to put in a little hard work apart from all the plug-ins we suggested already.
Its pretty easy to submit your blog or website to the search engines by just copying your sitemap’s URL and hitting the next buttons for their submission process. But in order to make the search engines pick your new posts and inject them into their site’s data we need to optimize our posts, just as we optimize our blog. It includes the keywords, that we use in our blog or website’s header as well as the Titles and the Tags. So in order to write a perfectly SEO optimized blog post, we need to think about it just as a web page and use some, or all, of my tips below. We will focus mainly on WordPress, for it is pretty easy to optimize for the search engines.

Post Title and SEO Title

Many users might not have yet realized that the title you write in the top bar is different than the one you write down in the SEO plugin’s bar. The title that you write in the POST Title bar is the one that appears on your blog above your post’s description or on the header bar of your browser. Whereas the SEO Title is the one that is tracked by the Search Engines and put up in their search results. Google shows up to 60 characters in their search results so it would be a better idea if you use as close to 60 characters as you can.

SEO Description And Keywords

I know many of the WordPress users just write a post, submit it and put it up on their Social Media thinking it will save the day. But trust me, that’s not the right way to deal with getting traffic. You need to have some organic and search engine traffic and search engines rely on the SEO description and keywords of your blog, more than the post content. You need to insert something into that description box that a reader can get the gist of the post easily, that it’s the thing they are searching for, because this description is the one that is shown below the post title in the search results. You should write up to 160 characters in here for the same reason as in the post title. And don’t forget about the keywords at all, for these are something that makes your post appealing. The words in this tab shows the search engine what the post is about, just like the description shows the reader.
Now, the real fact is that some users, just put in all the keywords related to the post inside that keywords box. But that is not going to give you any fruit, because search engines take these keywords and then search them throughout the content of the post, to confirm whether the post is truly about the keyword that reader has searched for. Now you might be thinking about what to put in that box, well here is deal, just think of yourself as a reader and look for the words that you would use to search for a specific blog post, for they are the one that will be more effective.

Post Permalink

This permalink is what adds up to your blog post’s link to let the readers get directed towards it. Most of the users use their post title as the permalink, and so you would be wondering whats the importance of a permalink. Well take the example of this post. The post title is ‘A Detailed Guide To Write An SEO Optimized Blog Post in WordPress’, and now if I use the same as my permalink, it would hurt my SEO. The reason is that the words ‘A, To, An, In’ are STOP words, and these are skipped by the search engines, to save their disk space and speed up indexing. We need to avoid having these stop words in our permalinks, and so the permalink I used for this post is rather ‘guide-write-seo-optimized-blog-post’. Oh and by the way if you have already submitted your post, don’t try to change your permalink now, for the old permalink will give an ERROR to your readers and it will effect your blog/website’s reputation.
You can find some more stop words HERE.

Post Interlinking

This is a crucial step while writing a blog post, especially when your blog has a very high bounce rate. Bounce rate is actually the percentage of the readers that run away from your blog without jumping to another page. How we work it out is that we link the old post on our blogs to the related words on our new blog post. WordPress has a new feature now while inserting/editing a link. You can now easily click or link to existing content and write the related word that you are searching a related post for, and select it. This option in WordPress clearly shows how user friendly WordPress has become for bloggers, to easily optimize their blogs. In SEO terms, interlinking to your old posts improves your page rank and gives a new route to the search engines to crawl over your old blog posts if they may have faced an error crawling it before.

Image Optimization

When I used to blog for my own blog a long time ago, I usually used to ignore this step and didn’t realize that I was doing something wrong until I started adopting this method for my new blog, when I saw some traffic being generated from ‘http://images.google.com‘. This happened because I optimized the images that I insert in my blog posts. The method to do that is very simple. After you insert your image, just open its options, and add the details of the image into the tab ‘Alternate Text’. See, for example, the image above is for the image settings, so I used ‘Image-Settings’ as an alternate text. Now whenever someone will search for ‘Image-Settings’ they will land on this post.
There are many plugins to do this, but the best one is SEO Friendly Images which automatically adds the name of the image as its Alternate Text, and so for this purpose when you are saving an image, always save it with the details that are in the picture.
To summarize all the important steps above, I would want you to do take care of your post’s keywords for that is what the search engine will crawl upon your post. In order for your post to gain a good position in the search results (rather than a post that tries to scam the system by filling everything with keyword after keyword and no real content), just take care of these things below and you will notice the difference:
After choosing a keyword for your blog post, try to make sure:

The title contains the keyword.
The title starts with the keyword.
The permalink contains the keyword.
The SEO description contains the keyword.
The SEO description starts with the keyword.
The SEO keyword contains the keyword.
The content has the keyword with a density of at most 4.5%
An image in the post contains the keyword as the alternate text.
The content contains a Bold keyword.
The content contains an Italicized keyword.
The content contains an Underlined keyword.
The content contains a keyword linked to a post on the same blog.
The content contains a keyword linked to a post from some other website/blog.
The content contains the keyword in the first and in the last 100 words.

The reason of having a keyword in the title, permalink, description and keywords is obvious. The keyword density being too low will prove that your post is not a scam. The keywords being bold, italicized and underlined is because search engines sometimes give preference to text that is different than the main body text and detecting the ones that ‘stand out’ as keywords will help further imporve yor ranking. Linking to other blogs also can improve your ranking.
I believe that this detailed guide to writing an SEO Optimized Blog post will help you reach your goal and you will surely notice the difference after implementing this method. Do leave your comments below to share your experience and even if you have something to ask about.
