2. User Experience

Users are your great assert. User experience now is SEO. Focus on user experience rather than other aspects in your site.

Mobile device: Think about how your page loads on mobile device since majority of users are using mobile. Is your content clearly visible on mobile device? Is your page scrolls smoothly on mobile? Is customer can easily order your product using mobile? And more.

Site architecture: Think about your site architecture. Is it easy in your site for users to find the product they are looking for? Try to make your every content is findable in maximum 3 level from home page.

3. Quality content

Content length does not matter, but it’s quality is important. People cannot read 5000 words long content. Let’s take example, you want to learn about Technical SEO. You have two options number one is 3000-word long article and another one is 10-minute video. Which one do you select. Of course 10-minute video right? So Try to make your content visual. Google update the algorithm based on user experience. So, it gives more important to the visual content rather than long text.

4. Technical SEO:

Technical SEO is always in first position in SEO. You have great content, you have great product and everything is fine. But your content is not findable by google, that does not work. So, Focus on technical issues of your site.

Important checklist for Technical SEO are:

-Maintain XML site MAP and valid robot.txt file to your site

-Remove duplicate page using 301 redirects

-Switch from HTTP to HTTPS

-Make your URL short and readable

-Make your website media responsive

-Make sure your website is mobile-friendly

-Check for broken links

5. Linking many backlinks is not necessary

Couple of years ago, I used to focus on backlinking because google used to ranked based on quantity of back links in your website. However, the time changes, google changes the algorithm. It is not necessary that you need to have more back links, rather focus on quality links.

My button line here is:

-Don’t buy link

-Don’t go through against Google’s rule

6. Focus on Global SEO:

Now the business is global. It’s great idea if you think your business in global market. Optimize your site for global market. You think about creating your website in multi-language.

7. Don’t forget Local SEO:

Local SEO is great way to localize your business. Focus on local SEO. You can go through video below to see how local SEO works.
