Model Your Posts & Pages Around Search Intent

It’s critical to pay attention to user needs. Here, search intent plays a role. Google is becoming more adept at comprehending content and the function it plays in page ranking.

They make it simpler for search engines to comprehend your website’s architecture and the value of its content.

Start Optimizing Your Site Speed (Core Web Vitals)

The Google Search Console includes a Core Web Vitals report that breaks down pages by those that are marked as Good as well as Needing Improvement and last but not least those classed as Poor.

 

What Are The Core Web Vitals Metrics? 

There are three Core Web Vitals, which are: 

 

Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), which measures the time it takes to load the main content on a web page.

First Input Delay (FID), which measures the time it takes for users to be able to interact with elements on a web page.

Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS), which analyzes how pages load and whether shifts in the layout could cause users to inadvertently click other elements on a page.

This marks a significant step in how Google is shifting more towards including User Experience in its ranking algorithms.

Start Earning Links from High Authority Domains

These are links from other high authority domains to your own website and specific pages on your website. A simple way to get started with link-building riffs off of the concept we featured earlier in this post is that people shouldn’t shy away from linking to other content.

If you’ve linked to a site in your content, send them an email (or perhaps tag them in a Tweet to let them know) and ask if they’d be interested in sharing it if it would be relevant to their audience. We use this approach a lot ourselves and it’s led to connections and great relationships with people at other companies that we still have to this day.
