You want to be a player in the game and have your content found! This means you have to increase your Google ranking.
There are over 200 Google ranking factors online, but I’m going to share with you one trick that you may not have heard before but will greatly boost your ranking.
Whether you’re a new content creator, surrounded by competition or don’t think of yourself as an authority in your topic area, none of that actually matters.
You CAN climb your way up the top with this simple and easy trick!
It’s time to give your website new life and tap into the enormous amount of traffic floating around online. The more traffic you funnel to your website, the more eyes on your content and the more results you’ll generate for your business goals.
Is it backlinks that give you a higher ranking on Google?
Even though doing backlinking the right way will help your Google ranking, there’s another way to link that is free and fast.
Mashable rules the tech world and overtakes Techcrunch even if the latter has plenty of backlinks.
Why is this???
Because Mashable has the right internal links.
When it comes to moving up on the SERPs, it’s not s not just about the backlinks, but relevant internal links you apply to your content.
Google’s spider bots sift through your posts, your site and any links you add to your content.
The algorithms are identifying certain ranking factors that help identify if your content is relevant to Google users.
Adding internal links to other pieces of great material will boost your Google ranking and help your audience find more of your content.
There are different ways to go about internal linking here are a couple of ways to get you going.
The largest, most extensive post you have can be considered your main post.
Whenever you write something that branches off of your main post topic you want to link those post together.
Say you’ve created a monster post on online marketing, or you’ve created a definitive guide to online marketing. If you write a post on keyword research, you simply add a link in your keyword research blog to your online marketing post.
Each time you write a post that is related to your main post on the same topic, link it to your main post.
This is a great way to help your audience more by guiding them to additional content and serves as a connection for Google’s spider bots into the relationship between your pieces of content.
Make it a point to add links to additional content in your sidebar.
This way readers have the option to move to a different blog that’s relevant to the one they’re reading and shows Google other relevant pieces of content related to your post even if you don’t add direct internal links to your content.
One thing to note is that in order to keep yourself in line with Google’s Webmaster Guidelines any links you add need to be visible.
Back in the early 2000’s you had people trying to trick to the system with zero point text and white fonts, something that Google will definitely penalize you for now.
So make your links easy to see that will allow your readers to check it out right away!
Ongoing new traffic is the life and blood of generating more leads and sales and a website that does more will funnel targeted traffic to your business.
Without traffic, there’s no way you can make money.
This is a really simple way to improve your ranking and move up on the SERPs.
This also helps your audience have easier access to more of your content.
