The first step to more organic traffic

Photo Written by André Gussekloo

As site owners, we all want more visitors. And money can buy almost anything. With a well-designed ad campaign you can tap into new markets and score leads. But if you are looking for a sustainable solution for more organic traffic, search engine optimization (SEO) is the way to go. How does it work and what do you need to pay attention to? 2manydots now offers you a ready-made checklist to get your SEO right.

How to influence your own rankings

No one outside Google knows for sure and even in the corridors of the search giant they are secretive about it: the exact factors Google ranks websites on. So SEO experts, like Brian Dean, can only guess at this. In his list of 200 ranking factors, you will encounter open doors such as the age of the domain and the quality of outgoing links, but also unexpected or even controversial factors such as over-optimization and the number of errors in the HTML code.

Even if it's all about guesswork, we still see that the on-site factors are the most important to Google. In other words, you can influence your ranking to a large extent yourself. And thus indirectly also the number of organic visitors, leads or customers that you get. But how do you do that, on-site optimization?

Content is king

How to optimize a website for more organic visitors is no secret. We have known for years that in order to do that you need to cultivate a status of authority. And you do that by posting in-depth, informative content. If you do that consistently, your site becomes a veritable knowledge base for your target audience and that is what Google rewards with higher rankings.

Even though Google -backed by artificial intelligence (AI)- is getting smarter, we can still give the search engine a hand. In fact, it seems like SEO professionals have more work than ever.
