Hey guys! My name is Peter Kowalkowski and in this post I will explain what you need to do to be ranked on the first page of Google! Ranking in the top 3 position of Google requires more than just quality backlinks. Social signals, great content, on-page optimization and so much more play a huge role in what will determine how well you will rank on Google and other search engines. I have listed a few things every company should do, not only that if you have already hired a local SEO company, please make sure to check their work by check marking the list below (don't assume it's already done!):
Website Title Tags
Your website title tags should be friendly and well optimized so that search engines can tell what your website is about. Keyword you are targeting should be presented in the title tag.
Website title descriptions
Your website should have a description for each page or post you create. This description should be very well optimized. Think of it as a short summary of what your page is about.
URL structure
Your website’s url structure should be user friendly. Each page should have a clean structure which will allow Google and other search engines crawl it easier. Google loves clean urls!
Image Page Optimization
If your website has lots of images on the page, each image should be very well optimized. This will help Google understand your page and it will improve your on page score.
Content for Website
One of the most important On-page optimization factors is content. Your website content should be very well optimized. No keyword stuffing, it should be natural and user friendly.
http:// and https://
Google prefers www versions of a website but not only that, with the recent announcement, Google wants all websites to be SSL, which is https.
Local listings
Every local business should have a verified account with Google local for business. Once verified, you the business owner should focus on getting reviews.
Local Business Reviews
Each business should try to reach at least 10-20 customer reviews. Having business reviews can drive up to 50% more sales for your business. This is a crucial part in becoming successful.
Mobile Websites
With the recent Google update your website should be mobile friendly. It has become a clear sign that owners with mobile friendly websites rank higher in search results.
Social Signals
Sharing, likes, and comments are becoming more important in the SEO strategy. This is why social signals can boost your rankings by driving targeted traffic and much more.
Link Building
It has been stated multiple times by Google that it's about quality not quantity. Getting a single back link from a high authority website can have a huge impact on your rankings.
Being Consistence
Having your business’ information updated and correct on the web is very important to Google. You want to make sure that you provide the best information to the customer.
