We would start with some basic SEO tools and in my future posts, I will go into details about more sophisticated tools tactics and tips.

     It is possible to rank very high in Google even if you are not doing paid ad because you are using organic traffic from optimizing your website and getting visitors. Google search engine uses your SEO optimized website and delivers it to people searching for your kind of information if your blog is really optimized. You can't just build a website or copy and paste and do paid advertising and expect money to start flowing and people to start viewing your website. You must optimize your website with keywords and SEO tactics so that you can be found easily. Mind you there are companies out there who pay millions to stay up there in the number 1 positions which you may never be able to compete with. To start optimizing your website you have to make it really fast your website speed matter.

1. SITE SPEED

2. GOOGLE VERIFICATION AND ERROR FIXING

3. KEYWORD RESEARCH

SITE SPEED:

       Believe it or not, the speed of your site matters a lot, when you want your website to get ranked high. Google first loads websites that load faster than slow websites, because the speed of your website show how quickly a website responds to requests, not just websites owners but everyone using the internet want to get quick and fast results and pages that load fast. we all know how irritated we get when a website does not load fast, so Google always upgrades their algorithms to check sites speed. I will show you an SEO tool to check your website speed and a couple of other corrections you need to make to increase your website speed. The first thing you need to do is go to a website called GTmetrix https://gtmetrix.com/ You have to register and login to see all the features.

follow the link it is very simple all you have to do is add your website link and click analyze this will take about 10-30seconds or a minute after that you will get this result which will look like this at the top you will get a score of your website performance which will look like this;

 and at the bottom of the page you would get a detailed explanation and errors in your webpage which will look like this;

https://gtmetrix.com/reports/seoideasandtools.blogspot.ae/q568TkYm

   This is a really great SEO tool site, it shows you more than a 100 things that are wrong with your website and how to fix them. Following this errors and fixing them will greatly increase your site's visibility. Warning some of the fix might need you to get into the code of your website which can be very risky if you don't know how to code, so get a friend to help you or just be really careful and the best approach will be to save your website first or create a backup this is a feature of most CMS to backup your website and download it in case you mess up the code. 
     The green arrow bars means there is no error within that section but the orange color and red means you need to fix that particular error. You can see also there are different tabs you must enter every tab to see the errors there. You might have a bad score when you first add your website, you just have to click on the low scores near the arrows and it will automatically tell you what to do to fix those errors.

GOOGLE VERIFICATION AND ERROR FIXING:

    The next thing you will need to do is log in to your Google console to verify your website. If you don’t have an account or have not set it up yet this is a must for testing your website status and monitoring your SEO every time, this is the link   https://www.google.com/webmasters/#?modal_active=none 

The page might have changed depending on Google's upgrade but the procedure remains the same and also you must have a Gmail account to login. When you log in to Gmail and you go to Google console you will follow a few tricky but easy steps to verify that it is your website. There are a couple of ways to do this, as you will have options on the page, just follow the steps and when you do it correctly you should see a page like this one below.

Before you get verified you will come to a page like this 

 asking you to enter your website for verification. 
All you have to do is download the code which will look something like this google-site-verification: google77a476f959c5538a.html then copy and paste into the head section of your website by accessing the HTML and CSS code area this could be a risky place to be if you are not very good with codes and editing of codes, so it would be a good idea to ask a friend or just learn it on a Youtube video.

http://bit.ly/2Fg7bxF

       This is to verify that you are the owner of this website, it might be difficult and very tedious at first and might not work you just have to try again but trust me it is worth it. The essence of this is that Google is adding your website to its address book to verify that you have a website and you have been added to their address book just like you will add your friend on WhatsApp or his/her number to your phone book, it also comes with a lot of features to help you monitor your site and keep it save too. Now that your website has been added you have to wait a day or 2 for any analysis to be made sometimes a month in order to monitor your website. I will advise anyone with a website to first start with verifying at Google console it is also referred to as Google webmaster. 

       Google console can do a lot for you. It can monitor your traffic, improve your HTML and fix security issues and lots more  At the left column of the image you can see all the information and issues it can help you with to optimize your website.

       

KEYWORD RESEARCH:

               One mistake people do is to think that they must put in or type their exact business keyword or exact phrase to get the best result, this is not the case most of the time you need to do some research and out of the box thinking, you have to add keywords that are opposite to your keyword or a bit similar, for instance, if you are a website designer there is no harm in adding logo design, graphic design  to your web pages or content, your  about page and services page. 

       This will trick Google search bot to alert your website or bring it up even though you are not a graphic designer, so this has given your website publicity to someone else that might refer it to another person by sharing your link.

     To check if your website has keywords that are buzzing around go to a website called keyword density tool checker, it also tells you your website speed and the total number of words on your site.  https://www.seocentro.com/tools/seo/keyword-density.html 

          Add your website then click submit the keyword density tool will analyze your website to see if you have good keyword ranking. If it is poor, sorry you have to remodel your to have a more buzzing keyword that matches your business. This a nice and powerful tool because it will also show you places or social media where your site has linked to or has a backlink which means your website is going place.  

           A keyword is one of the most important and effective tool/tip for getting traffic to your website and getting ranked high. In order for Google bots and search engine to see your website and rank it high you have to be pushing these keywords around your website, do some serious research and hard work, this is not just fixed, find and go, you have to keep doing this every month or twice in a month.

         How does keyword help you and lets people find you? Just like you are searching for clients and customers online, people are also searching for you, but they just can't find you out of thin air from millions of website and even some providing the same service that you are providing, so the steps to take to get strong powerful and most search keyword is to go to Google keyword tool

What you have to do here is type in a word related to your business for example if you are a website designer type in website designer and click the search button. 

        Then select your country search engine to be able to target your ad in your location. If you want to target the whole world just leave it at the default google.com when you type search this is what you will get a lot of words people are searching for 

The next thing for you to do is to add as many of these keywords to your website about page or service page, or your site description in YouTube or in the description in a business listing where you have placed your website. So next time someone searches for a particular keyword relating to your business they can easily find you or your site might just pop up. Like I said one or two of these tips, techniques and SEO tools might not make your website very effective you need to use a combination of a lot of SEO tools. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_optimization

       Another very effective way of using keyword is on your own website. Since Google systematically searches for most searched keywords and directly finds your site it will be helpful also to mention the keyword you want to be found and ranked for in Google search engine inside your website as often as possible at least 5 to 10 times in your first 100 paragraph. For example, I am talking about SEO tools I have mentioned it here and also 3 times in my opening paragraph and a couple of times inside my post. Google is optimized to search for the fastest and most informative and effective websites out so leave a comment to let me know what you think and let me know if you have any problems. See you in my next post. SEO tools and techniques are one of the ways you could get more organic traffic to your website without having to pay for ads, so the more you practice using this tools and techniques the better chances of ranking higher in Google search engine.

TOP GOOGLE SEO GUIDELINES FOR (2018)

5 GOOGLE SEO GUIDELINES IN (2018)

      

      SEO search engine optimization is the process of making adjustment or modification to your website from the code(HTML CSS) or content you have written. This modification, when viewed individually, might seem irrelevant, but when combined they can make a serious impact on the website which can generate organic traffic. 

      Google regularly upgrades its algorithms and guidelines to guide people on the best practices on SEO optimization and SEO techniques. This is a precaution to make sure no one is cheating on SEO tactics and techniques even though there are bots in Google that keep a check on websites.

       Google still need to add these guidelines because owners of websites and blogs who are not aware of this rules might be breaking the rules and don't even know it.

https://seoideasandtools.blogspot.ae/2018/02/todays-post_23.html Find out more.

There are a lot of guidelines but I will be telling you about a few in this post.

1. Never misuse Keywords

2. Don't use popular keywords

3. Create unique/original content

4. Don't use low-quality links

5. Make your website speed a priority

 1. Never misuse Keywords; 

    Keywords tell search engines what your page or content is about it can create traffic for you and rank your website high for that particular keyword. Most people use their keyword or the phrase they want to be ranked for several times in their article this is called keyword stuffing.

 For instance, I use SEO tools and techniques 10 times in a post just to get traffic, Google bots will not immediately detect but after a while, they will and when they do your website will be ranked very low or your website will be flagged by Google. The best practice is to use your keyword 3 times or 4 and use other SEO  techniques and tools to optimize your website or blog.

2. Don't use popular keywords;

   From research and most tutorials, most people will usually advise using the most common keyword out there Google advice is to use keywords that are synonyms for your word or phrase.

3. Create unique/original content;

       Make sure that your content or article is unique and well written or it generally passes an information or solves a problem. Don't copy and paste Google has plagiarism bots that can detect that you have copied and not even rank you.

    If you must copy the best practice is to improve the person's work or polish it and add more information that is not in the original content.  

4. Don't use low-quality links;

     We all know backlinks can really optimize your website outbound or inbound link and Google considers any site with a lot of links for high ranking, some people misuse this and try to take advantage of sharing links by asking their friends to add their link to their blog or website and they would do the same for that friend, but most of the time some people ignore their website or blog and never touch it again or just once in 2 months. Google will realize it and won't rank you, that is why it is recommended to have backlinks to sites with authority like Facebook and Youtube etc. You can create a facebook page for your blog and post your article there and create a link back to your site, you could do that for Pinterest as well and other prominent sites. SEO optimization is very easy as long as you use the proper SEO tools and follow simple rules and guidelines.

5. Make your website speed a priority;

      Make sure your website is fast, Google gives priority to fast loading websites when a user searches for any information. With more than 60% of online search coming from mobile devices and Ipad Google advice having a responsive website and if possible having a responsive theme when purchasing one.

5 SEO Techniques and tips in (2018) that will help rank your website in Google

5 SEO TECHNIQUES AND TIPS IN (2018) THAT WILL HELP RANK YOUR WEBSITE IN GOOGLE


Like I always say 3 or 4 SEO tools and techniques will not fully optimize your website to rank high in Google search engine, you have to use a couple of SEO tools and tactics.
1. On Page SEO/Optimization 



2. Link Authority/Quality


3. Youtube Video Link


4. Link Velocity


5. Image link/Naming


On Page SEO/Optimization;

       They are various SEO tools, tips, and tactics. Today I will share 5 simple tricks you can use to optimize your website in order to rank high in Google search engine. Ranking high by gaining organic traffic from Google is not easy, it needs a lot of hard work and patience and a lot of experimenting and using a lot of SEO tools, tips, and techniques that will help you.
          It is always a good practice to reference your title or add it to your content as much as possible, the technique of on-page SEO is to link your web pages in every one of your articles, you can reference your last post or article to a new one by creating a link to the post or article. https://seoideasandtools.blogspot.ae/2018/02/blog-post.html


Find out more at http://www.ebizmba.com/




  Link Authority/Quality;

    
          In order to get great quality and authority link, you need to have a link to your article from websites that already have very high authority like the top 10 or 20 authority, for example, Youtube, Facebook website. For instance Facebook, you can create a facebook page and paste your article on your wall and link it back to your blog https://www.facebook.com/seotipsandtools/?hc_ref=ART0eYC0dd3QV4wcVRrhQk8UvCw2CeOfrjt6dRSE2x5cRIoGCSSw6upALrikm-NYwpc&fref=nf

Youtube Video Link;

         You should add a link to your youtube video or page in your post, you can also embed a video in your article. 

 Link Velocity;
                     

       Link velocity is very important in SEO.
In addition to having a lot of links inbound and outbound, Google is now placing emphasis on the type of websites that are linking to your pages and how fast they are pointing to your page, post or article. So you don't only have to link your website to websites with authority but to the website that are also talking about your topic and referring people to your site or blog by sharing. So it would be a good idea for me to have a link to SEO site with great authority.
   

Image link/Naming;
                         

     Naming your images is also very important for SEO optimization and search engines because if you name your image SEO-tools or SEO-tools2 would be a good idea in my own case but you should name your images whatever the topic you are talking about or the heading  or title of the topic, because Google search engine also uses images that are on your blog to find you. So it would be a great idea to name your images the keyword you want to be ranked for or the topic you are talking about.

 1. BuiltWith: This is one of my most favorite tools it is referred to as competitive intelligence. https://builtwith.com/ 

When you first visit the site you will be prompt to add a website URL you want to make an inquiry about.
       Builtwith does a couple of things, but the two most important is telling you what framework or technology a website was built with. It also shows you some website that has used a certain technology or framework. But you to signup which is free.
         There is a free and paid version but the free version is fine. You might be wondering why you want to know the technology or framework a website was built on, it is just like warfare an opponent is always trying to know what kind of arsenal or weapons his enemy has, and when and where they are going to attack. We all want to emulate the top site online and get the kind of ranking they have and design they use or dynamic.
      Builtwith will help you a lot when building your site or upgrading your website. You might want to start an e-commerce site or a learning platform website you have come across online and wonder how they have put it all together, builtwith will help you with that, all you have to do is add the website URL and click 'lookup' then click continue.

2. Easel
           Easel is an infographic creator, no prominent or authority website online is complete without an infographic. Infographic is a visual representation of any information or data you are trying to convey but in colors, images diagrams charts. 


check out the website.  https://www.easel.ly/ 

They are various free templates of infographics online you can download and edit with powerpoint or Adobe illustrator but you have to be a good graphic designer or just need to spend a lot of time on the computer and being creative.

        Easel is a very good SEO tool that helps you create Infographic http://bit.ly/2sYdS5F which will, in turn, help your ranking in Google engine because Google does not only search our content or blog for text before ranking us, the best top ten or top 50 websites on Google front page have images, videos, and infographic. I designed an infographic of this same article with Easel in the image below. You can create an infographic with more content, images, and graphics.

3. Google keyword planner:

      This is a tricky but easy to use SEO tool that is very helpful not just for ranking for a keyword but also preparing you to know what kind of keyword is buzzing around a particular country or place in order for you to take advantage of it. You need to have Gmail, of course, to sign in and start using it. This is the first page you would see when you go to the site

The next page will prompt you to enter your email and website then click continue, by the way, this is also the procedure to start AdWords and pay Google for Ads but we are not going to do a paid ad we are just trying to leverage the keyword planner software. The next page will prompt you to fill in some details just fill it don't be scared and turn away thinking you have to pay for the ad, you will then come to the next page which will have the heading 'define your product or service'. This is where you need to just look down where it says what is your business category enter any word or phrase you want and look at the right side where it says potential audience size, everytime you type in a new word or phrase the numbers on the right will change, this is when you know if people are using that keyword or not and the number of times is been used or searched Google will tell you how many times that word or phrase has been searched that month  to get to this page is a bit tricky because a few people have emailed me saying they cant reach the page it just takes them to payment section, you just have to follow the promt and dont go beyond this point.This could help even a business person who wants to engage in a startup, they could just come here and put their business or idea to see if it is buzzing and people are searching for that kind of service or not, and a very great tools to search for keywords to boost your blog and SEO ranking for that particular keyword.

4. Gtmetrix

       Gtmetrix is a very powerful SEO tool that helps optimize your website speed, javascript CSS images and a lot of issues with your website. Although you have to be careful in fixing some of the errors if you are not an expert and you aren't familiar with coding because most of the fix has to be done in the code section.

 https://seoideasandtools.blogspot.ae/2018/02/3-seo-tactics-that-will-increase-your.html



 Spyfu: This is one of my favorite SEO tools as the name implies its a spy.

 https://www.spyfu.com/ All you have to do is copy the URL of a website you are jealous of and paste at spyfu website and click search.

Apart from just spying on any site, it tells you what the website is worth how many organic keywords they are ranking for and how many paid keyword they are ranked for. This will give you an overview of what the websites are doing to stay up there in the ranking or what they have done to get there, this information can help you build your website or adjust your current website's optimization because, from research that I have done and prominent websites that I have added, about 90% of them do not even do a paid ad, so you can imagine if you use this information against them to optimize your website properly and  also do a paid ad if you have the cash and you could see your website ranking with a bit of hardwork, search engine optimization and effective use of some seo tools and techniques.
