Writing good content that people can link to

@jason_chan7 Yeah that's the key. Tough to write good content though :)
Did you apply to any of the companies to promote the site? What do you think? Are there any smart ones? I really want to find the right one for myself.

Hey, we've put together an eBook on how we did it 😄

In short. Google penalizes cheap hacks, it's only a matter of time until you hit the wall 😬
So high-quality content doesn't always win the sprint, but it always wins the marathon 😄

Deep research on the ICP --> understanding their pain points --> topic -> keywords --> high-quality content. Normally, we start with keyword research, which probably might not be the best approach.
Prelude Verify
Lots of great advice in the comments already, so I'll just add: including images and media.
Google Image is a great source of traffic that's often overlooked, and Google is adding images directly in the SERP now, including in the zero position.
For every new piece of content, I try to illustrate one key concept of the article in a nice infographic (quickly done on Canva). This helps differenciate from others, can also be a great source of backlinks from blogs using our visual and helps the shareability of the content.
When people focus mainly on text content, it's becoming harder and harder to be unique through text, so visuals are a nice plus.
@paullouis_valat1 nice visuals work well do they - righty ho lets see if they help move the needle

@paullouis_valat1 yeah that's so true.

My favorite is refreshing old content. Especially if you have an aged domain, this can work wonders.
AI Link Manager
@alexisgrant00 Yeah that a lot of sense. Do you use any tool for refreshing or optimization?

@gauravgoyal_gg We use AHREFS.
Just dug up this post where I explain more about the process we use: https://alexisgrant.com/2021/01/...

Properly writing structured content on the website.
It not only helps ranking on search engines but it even helps to avoid paying extra for ads.
But mostly, patience :)
AI Link Manager
@jonathanm Absolutely. Whatever you do here, patience and trust the process is the key :)
@jonathanm With this strategy alone, how long have you noticed the changes in traffic for your site?
@iyamendoza01 with the right tools and content strategy, it could take 1 month or up to 3 months for sites i've worked on.
Too often it gets compared to the instant results of paid ads, so even 1 month is patience.
I do SEO for Instant Logo Design , and we mainly rely on content creation with relevant and high volume keywords.
We also do different backlink strategies. Once you find one strategy for it, keep them in notes, and do a trial and error on which one should you continue, stop, or mix and match,

@iyamendoza01 Do you also use SEO optimization tools?
AI Link Manager
@iyamendoza01 Yeah, creating relevant content is the key.
Link building. Getting backlinks from some high-authority sites has actually proved to be really helpful. This could be through guest posts, partnerships, or any other way that seems feasible.
AI Link Manager
@neelam_goswami1 Got it. How do you streamline link building? It turns out to be tedious task.
@gauravgoyal_gg I agree, it is hard work. We have an ongoing partnership program with other businesses from our niche. Our Marketing Lead reaches out to new partners almost every day and sets up trackers for monitoring link exchanges, guest post exchanges, etc. It usually happens on a 1:1 ratio.
So for every link or guest posting opportunity they give us, we reciprocate with a similar opportunity for them.

@neelam_goswami1 Got it. This is very interesting. Thanks for sharing this.

@brad_fusion That's a good point. Trust the process :)
As an SEO specialist, one of the most effective strategies I have used is optimizing content for long-tail keywords. This involves targeting more specific phrases that may have lower search volumes but are more likely to convert. Another trick that has worked for me is ensuring website speed and mobile responsiveness, which are now significant ranking factors for Google. To make Search Engine Optimization easier, I recommend using Rush Analytics, a platform that offers an array of SEO tools. One of their essential tools is the Google Index Checker, which allows you to quickly check whether a page is indexed by Google. It's an essential tool for tracking your website's index status and optimizing your website's SEO efforts. Optimizing for long-tail keywords and improving website speed and mobile responsiveness are crucial SEO strategies that have worked well for me. By using the tools provided by Rush Analytics, like the Google Index Checker, you can simplify your SEO tasks and achieve better results.

Google says: Content is King.
Google does: at random.

2. Optimizing your website content for those target keywords.
3. Building high-quality backlinks to your website from other relevant websites.
