I\u2019m an English major. To all of the other English majors out there reading this, hold your applause. You, too, can get a job after college!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Writing has quite literally always meant everything to me. When I was seven years old, my best friend and I would put our heads together during free time in class and write illustrated short stories. Then, I\u2019d go home and do the exact same thing. I\u2019d create worlds on paper or behind my mom\u2019s computer screen, and it just felt right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, let\u2019s fast forward\u2026 Here I am holding down the fort with writing initiatives at WEBii. How did the little girl who was writing about anthropomorphic animals finding their way in the world get into search engine optimization (SEO)? Let&#8217;s take a look at my takeaways from the last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I am fascinated by content marketing.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fact of the matter is that this job has only made me appreciate writing more. I\u2019ve gotten the chance to branch out in ways that I never would have expected, and I\u2019ve learned an insane amount about topics that I may never have dipped into otherwise. If someone were to pass me on the street and ask about information technology or home remodeling, it\u2019s likely that I\u2019d have a long-winded answer. Getting to do a deep dive into research across a variety of topics has been fascinating.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One major thing that I have been able to take away from being at a Texas SEO company has been, of course, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/2022\/07\/the-three-pillars-of-seo\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">importance of SEO<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Every single website can benefit from it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I spent the majority of my life not knowing how something could find itself on the first page of Google, but that I was going to wholeheartedly trust the invisible process and primarily find answers there. If something shows up on page one, it has to be good, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not everything can be on page one. A lot of content is actually hidden gems. They lurk in the shadows of the Big Ol\u2019 Cave of Google in hopes that someone (maybe you?) is going to mine through more pages to find them. The issue is that you may have expertly-written blog posts, but you haven\u2019t optimized anything on your site. So, if you\u2019re wondering \u201cwhy the heck is my business all the way on page 20,\u201d there may be a reason for that. Luckily, you can rectify it!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I may be fairly new to the industry, but I\u2019d argue that I know a good bit by now, thanks to the help of the long-time pros I\u2019m surrounded by. That\u2019s why I\u2019m bringing to you some things that I believe anyone who is new to SEO can benefit from knowing.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13737\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13737\" class=\"wp-image-13737 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-1.jpg\" alt=\"One Year SEO Image 1\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-13737\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo by George Morina on Pexels<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can\u2019t just guess what people want.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data. We use it for everything. It allows us to more effectively identify problems and figure out the best course of action to solve them. You can\u2019t expect to go into decision-making blindly. Otherwise, you will make mistakes every time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to SEO, the data that is relevant is related to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/seo-services\/seo-approaches\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">performance of your website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This includes how much organic traffic a page is receiving, where that page is ranking, and the amount of time that a user spends browsing your site. Are you accumulating enough backlinks? Have you seen any recent changes in the number of conversions? These points add up to help you with your unique content strategy. You need to know exactly what your audience wants. If you don\u2019t take their behaviors into account, they are likely to continue bouncing from your site before fulfilling your call-to-action (CTA). That\u2019s the exact opposite of what you want to happen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/2022\/03\/the-guide-to-the-google-serp\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google is the king<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of all search engines. With tools like Google Keyword Planner and Google Trends, you can dive into what people online are actually searching for. From there, you can better curate your content. And Google Analytics and Google Search Console are great for explaining how your site is performing. They break down how you are getting visitors, where they are coming from, and when they are the most interested in your content. These are tools you can\u2019t afford to ignore.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The numbers don\u2019t lie. If you want to see your site rise to that front page of the search engines, you have to be mindful of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That being said, understand that people aren\u2019t just a number. You can certainly go beyond what the tools are telling you and do your own research into the minds of your audience. See what kinds of questions they are regularly asking on forums. This can help you construct an FAQ page on your site. It\u2019s the perfect way to tuck in your keywords.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone loves a good video (if done well)!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.oracle.com\/advertising\/post\/the-history-and-future-of-television-advertising\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">first TV commercial<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> came out in 1941? That was a game-changer for advertising. Since then, the use of video ads by businesses and organizations has skyrocketed. It\u2019s now a multibillion-dollar global industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lot of times, video ads are more entertaining than simply reading about products and services. Plenty of commercials for professional groups are centered on having awesome comedic timing. And the reason for that? To be more memorable. Advertisers have easily taken this concept into the digital sphere. They want you to talk to those around you about what a great video you saw the other day when you were waiting for a YouTube video to load. But you won\u2019t do that if you press \u201cSkip\u201d before the ad is even complete. So, these ad creators need to capture the attention of viewers as quickly as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13739\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13739\" class=\"wp-image-13739 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-2.jpg\" alt=\"One Year SEO Image 2\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-2-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-13739\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo by George Milton on Pexels<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same goes for you as the owner of a site. When you make a video for marketing purposes, it shouldn\u2019t drag on. Now, there is no overarching rule about how long a video should be. However, if you are recognizing that people aren\u2019t sticking around on your web page despite this additional content, you have hit a threshold where their interest was lost. So, it\u2019s necessary for you to have a concise script before you kick off filming.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You could have people in the video. Cartoons. A PowerPoint screen. At the end of the day, it doesn\u2019t matter how your video is made as much as it matters what kind of content you are displaying within it. Make sure that the information is what your audience cares about. It should also be explained in a way that they can understand. A longtime astrophysicist isn\u2019t going to need the same type of video as a middle school-level astronomy class does.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through the decades, video has made many changes. Who would\u2019ve thunk that we would have options like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/2022\/05\/make-your-organization-go-viral-with-tiktok-marketing\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TikTok<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, where an algorithm of video content is so impressively catered to our interests? That\u2019s what you need to do as a video creator. Think like the TikTok algorithm.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The device is something to keep in mind.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smartphones are still a relatively new phenomenon. Yet, the majority of the world has them. I\u2019d argue that we take them for granted. You don\u2019t know how much you rely on your smartphone until you don\u2019t have access to it. Unlike with landlines, we have the ability to do just as many things on our mobile devices as we do on our computers. It\u2019s absolutely incredible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are on the go and have a question, you just look it up on your phone. You can type it into your search engine browser or ask your hands-off virtual assistant. And this is where it becomes extremely important for your site to be <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/mobile-web-design\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">optimized for mobile usage<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, let\u2019s get into the browser experience. Someone will come across your site on, for example, Safari. They click on your link but, alas\u2026 Your site looks completely different than it would on a computer. It isn\u2019t responsive at all and the load time leaves much to be desired. They can\u2019t easily navigate between pages, read a full paragraph, or see the images you embedded. The user experience is horrible, so these users will leave. Your competitors are waiting for you to make a mistake like this, where you only focus on what your site looks like for larger devices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, we should think about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/2021\/12\/conversational-optimized-voice-search\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">voice search<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Your content should be considerate of natural human language. Don\u2019t cater everything to search engine robots. Sites that aren\u2019t optimized for the conversational questions that users are asking won\u2019t have the privilege of getting their answers up front and center. Like I said earlier, you have to know what your audience legitimately wants from a business or organization like yours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of this to be said, just because you optimized your site for desktop doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s optimized for mobile. A professional web designer can ensure that you are on the right track with that.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_13741\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13741\" class=\"wp-image-13741 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-3.jpg\" alt=\"One Year SEO Image 3\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/One-Year-SEO-Image-3-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-13741\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo by Priscilla Du Preez on Unsplash<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SEO is an ongoing process.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We live in an age where we demand immediate gratification. I know I do. I like being able to look up a question on Google and have the answer right in front of my face. According to Freud, this is called the pleasure principle. It\u2019s based on our most basic desires being our strongest motivating force. Waiting can feel like a pain. And it\u2019s safe to assume that if we were all dropped off in the pre-internet age, we wouldn\u2019t even begin to know what to do with ourselves. (Yes, that goes for people who were born during that age, too.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The point is that SEO is that frustrating waiting game. You can\u2019t expect to be on page one for every keyword that you want to rank for the second you start a campaign. It isn\u2019t fair to your digital agency to assume that. There\u2019s a lot that goes on behind the scenes, and I have experienced firsthand that we do the best we can with what the search engines are giving us. After all, Google changes its algorithm <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/google-algorithm-history\/#:~:text=The%20search%20engine%20uses%20a,thousands%20of%20changes%20every%20year.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">thousands of times per year<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some sites will take longer than others to rank. Other sites are going to experience backslides, going from the front page to page five in a matter of weeks. A digital agency will keep making adjustments for you so that you get the best experience possible out of the search engines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to have an SEO success story, you need to keep up with it in the long term. Your efforts should continue to evolve alongside your audience. Routinely post content, monitor your rankings, and network, network, network. You have to get your name out there as much as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want people to believe that your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/blog\/2022\/01\/showcase-case-studies-on-your-website\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">business or organization is credible<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This means two things\u2014getting testimonials from your clients and obtaining backlinks from other reputable sites. The more that people are talking positively about you, the better. It\u2019s give and take, though, so don\u2019t expect to put out poor-quality products and services if you want people to speak kindly on your name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It truly doesn\u2019t matter what kind of business you are. You could be an app for banking, a cookie-making company, or an oral surgeon. Search engine optimization will undoubtedly change your web presence for the better. You just have to give your site a little extra TLC.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"author calloutbox3\" style=\"font-size: 14px;\">\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Megan Marshall<\/strong> coordinates search engine optimization (SEO) projects for a variety of clients, producing original blog and press articles, content editing and optimizing, SEO progress reports, and social media content.
