The reason this is a long process is because you need to be constantly changing what you’re executing in order to keep your website current and appealing to search engine spiders locating information. You need to be changing with consumer behavior, matching your competitors and reacting to organic progression within both your field of industry and techniques to increase or maintain your site ranking.
So how do you speed the SEO results process up?
With the understanding that you need to put hard work over a long period of time, the question of when are you going to reap the benefits is one that many people ask and would like a sooner then later answer.
4 SEO Tips for Fast Moving SEO Results
Keep your Website Fresh and Unique
There are two main SEO results and benefits accomplished when search engine spiders are crawling websites: making sure you’re constantly updating your web pages with new information to prevent them from going stale and making sure that content is unique.
If a website is ‘stale’ or hasn’t been updated for a long term, search engine spiders will overlook the information, no matter how poignant it is. This is because it can be seen as outdated and new, more relevant data can be found elsewhere which will more likely be applicable to the current day and age.
Secondly, making sure your content is entirely unique is also a vital to the process of seeing SEO results more quickly. Of course you need to include keywords and phrases relevant to your industry field, but any duplicated or plagiarized information will also be overlooked by search engine spiders. If they’ve seen the information before they won’t promote your business in the rankings.
Ethical Link Building Tips
Forums and social interaction are great ways to build links to your website that can be recognized by search engines as legitimate avenues to your business being relevant in searches leading to higher rankings. Spamming forums is a bad idea as too many links too quickly can be counteractive and will work against your in search engine algorithms.
Forcing links on every medium left, right and center is like slamming your foot on the gas in a car, you’re likely to have a car accident. With posting your link everywhere, you’re turning your business into a spammer and search engines don’t take too kindly to that.
However, updating relevant forums with information and advice relating to your field of expertise and including a link can be a positive organic SEO process. This filters through into search engine results and may flag up your website as a popular and appropriate site to be included in the higher rankings.
Tailor your Keywords for Better SEO Results
If you’re operating in a very competitive market, you will be contending with millions of web pages displaying the obvious keywords for your industry field. This means that no matter how many times you input that keyword to your website, you’re having to work against others that have been around longer, are already big brand names, have long standing social media coverage, and a whole host of other factors that search engines look for.
To counteract that and see SEO results faster, you need to think creatively on what search terms people might look for which which will perhaps cater to the niche market within your industry or will not be covered as popularly as the obvious key phrases. For example, if you sell car insurance, the term ‘car insurance’ generates 159,000,000 results on Google. However, if you search for ‘car accident payout assistance’, Google returns just 6,090,000 results.
By researching which key phrases generate fewer results, you can focus your attention on optimizing your page with less competitive fields in order to speed up the process of recognition by Google.
Know and Be Better than Your Online Competitors
Lastly, it is important to know, not only who your online competitors are, but also what techniques they’re employing with their search engine optimization campaigns. By drilling into their keywords, meta descriptions, title tags and URLs, you can work out what game they’re playing and attempt to undermine and outwit them by matching their techniques or creating your own dynamic and innovative techniques and ideas.
For example, injurylawyers4u.co.uk has secured a number one ranking spot by focusing on ‘car accident’ as a keyword. This means that they’re more likely to have web traffic from people who are looking for a lawyer after a car accident than injury lawyer firms mistakenly focusing their efforts elsewhere.
