Learn how to define an SEO strategy to achieve your website goals
An SEO strategy is an approach or process that helps improve search engine rankings. A successful SEO strategy is key to improving your organic search traffic.
Improved search engine results, consistent organic search results, and a page one ranking on Google do not happen by accident. This takes a concentrated effort of fine-tuning, reviewing, and tweaking your SEO strategy.
Your SEO strategy must be specific to your website, target demographic, products, services, and goals. There is no such thing as a cookie-cutter SEO strategy or “buying an SEO strategy”.
With our 11 SEO tactics for creating a winning strategy, you can create a customized SEO strategy specific to your website goals.

Remember, while SEO stands for search engine optimization, simply “doing” SEO is not enough. You need a strategy based on the fundamentals of SEO, search, and knowing your target demographic.

Read moreWhat are Social Signals? 7 Ways to Improve Social Signals
/in SEO /by Jane PhelpsLearn how social signals impact SEO
Social signals are the likes, shares, and views of social media posts. These social likes, shares, and views signal to search engines and your social media followers that your content is useful and relevant.
Likes, shares, and views help increase the visibility of your social posts. The more visible your posts, the more people who will read, like, share, and click your posts. For some social media posts, this can snowball into millions of shares, likes, views, and clicks.
Engagement or social signals are a key social media marketing metric – telling you what types of content resonate with your social media followers.
Search engines want to rank and promote content that resonates and engages readers. So, while Google does not consider social signals to be an official ranking signal, these likes, shares, and views do tell search engines your content is of high quality and value.
There is a lot of mixed messaging on social signals and their importance for SEO. In this blog we discuss how social signals impact SEO and how you can improve your social signals.
