Everyone asks us this question in some way or another. What’s the point in having a website if people can’t find it? If your page isn’t on the first page, your business will have issues. So, how do we achieve ranking first? The answer is: there is no secret, there are only good practices. We pride ourselves in including these practices as a habit to rank on Google (and other search engines).

Here are the best practices according to Google for improving your ranking in their search results:

  • Provide high-quality content on your site. Google looks for the best answer for users’ requests; if you write the best material, you’re in the game. Use the Search Analytics report to see which queries lead to your pages, and what the click-through rate is for links to your site.
  • Make your site mobile friendly. Many users search on mobile devices. Search results favor pages that answer the user’s request best with the best possible user experience on their platform.
  • Use informative titles and snippets. Good, clear titles and accurate meta tag descriptions help search enginges understand the purpose of a page and generate useful snippets in the search results. Learn more.
  • Add structured data to enable additional search result features such as stars, event information, or site search boxes, which add to the user experience, making your site more valuable to readers. Read more about structured data or use Google’s tools.
  • Make sure that you follow our guidelines for good sites and avoid pitfalls that could effect your search ratings.
