People not involved in website optimisation often have difficulty to understand search engine optimisation and the different methods that are involved. If you have to explain the basic SEO concepts to your boss, the following list will help you:
1. Link building is important
Links are like votes for a website. The more votes a website has, the better the rankings. Our experts work with you to target the most appropriate websites to link with you to drive your rankings through the roof.
2. There are different link types
Search engines consider the relevance of the links. Links from unrelated websites don't help as much as links from relevant websites. A link from a website that has many inbound links for itself counts more than a link from an unpopular website.
Prografica expert team will help you to get links from relevant websites.
3. It's important to keep on link building
It does not help to get more links than your competing web pages. At least one of your competitors will continue to build links and pass your website. For that reason, it's important to know that link building is an ongoing activity.
Prografica expert team keep track of the websites that already link to you and will help you to find new links on a regular basis.
4. Buying links can get you in trouble
Search engines don't like paid links because they consider the links to your website as editorial votes. Google has officially stated that it considers paid links as an attempt to game the system.
Google penalizes websites that buy links. Even if Google cannot automatically find all paid links to your website, your competitors might report your website.
Prografica will not buy links on behalf of our customers, we only use proven methods to get high quality organic links.
5. Redirects can cause problems
Redirects have been used by spammers in the past and some search engines still have difficulties with that. If you have to use redirections on your website, only use 301 redirects.
A 301 redirect is the only server side redirect that is defined as a permanent redirect. That means that search engines will follow the links and pass the links from the old URL to the new URL.
Our team can assess your website to find out if your web pages use the wrong redirects.
6. Duplicate content can cause problems
Search engines want to return as many different results as possible in their results. That is why search engines only list one copy of a document in their search results.
For that reason, you shouldn't promote more than one domain for the same website and you should have unique content on your web pages.
Near copies are also considered duplicate content, for example, when the same article is listed on more than one website.
7. Why your web pages must be optimized
Search engines use simple software programs to index web pages. These web pages analyze the text on a web page to determine what it is all about.
If a keyword is mentioned in the right places and in the right frequency, search engines will consider the web page relevant to that keyword. If a keyword is mentioned too often, search engines might penalize a website because it looks like a spamming attempt.
Our expert team will provide you with the right advice on where and how often you should use your keywords on your web pages so that the web page gets top 10 rankings on Google.
8. Keywords are the key to your success
It's important to choose the right keywords for search engine optimisation. Single word keywords can be very popular but they seldom lead to sales. Industry specific keywords can be so special that no one searches for them. The perfect keyword is targeted, has a high search volume and leads to sales.
Prografica expert team can help you to find the best keywords for your website.
