Pay Heed to Voice Searches

It has been encountered that voice searches has been increased from last years that is 60% of people make use of voice searches for finding results for their queries.

In this case, I think using long tail keywords is valuable and choose the best relevant keyword pharases that is usage of Latent Semantic Indexing keywords should be added.

LSI Keywords are synonyms of your main keyword. They help to provide context to your content in the sight of both search engine and users by supporting the main term.

For example:

Good Content is still King

Even though Seo Trends are changing with different time-spans but good content is always a key for better ranking in search engine result pages. Despite, simple content with a pinch of vocabulary can also do magic.

Always keep in mind:

• Content should be relvant with your website.
• Content should not be less than 300 words.
• Content must be between atleast 300 to 1800 words.
• Content should be arranged in appropriate way (Use heading tags)

Website Speed:

As I already mentioned search engines such as Google, Bing are more focused on end user’s experience. Thus, website speed plays an essential role in website’s ranking. Make sure your website’s loading time is less.

More loading time or slow speed of website can leave the browsing user in critical situation. Then, one can even close the website before even opened completely. This will put a negative impact on your reputation search engine ranking.

Hence, website speed also major reason for good ranking in search engine result pages.

The Dwell Time Matters:

As some of the people are not aware of dwell time. Let me explain it:

Dwell time is the time spent by user on the website.

Google bot focus on the tracking time of spend by user on you website. This will put an impact on website if dwell time is short.

Ideal dwell time for websites in top 10 search results is 3 minutes 10 seconds. As spending too much time on a web page means you like the content of web-page.

Video Marketing:

Watching videos is becoming viral because YouTube is a great tool for sharing ideas, information and opinions for even beginners. It is easy for everyone to learn new stuff while surfing on youtube.

Embedding video in website can be useful, because a video is probably of atleast 30 seconds. Hence it will help in increasing dwell time of website. Moreover it will also increase visibility of blog or website in search engine as well as youtube.

Don’t forget Back-linking:

Back-linking is an advantageous way to increase visibility of website. Additionally, it is also favored nowadays too. Back linking is evergreen and links from high priority websites always support the website to rank better in search engine result pages.
