Yeni başlayanlar için basit bir rehberde listelenen ücretsiz SEO ve web sitesi optimizasyonu hakkında her şeyi netleştirebilir misiniz?

Mar 21, 2018

Eh, kısa cevap evet, yeni başlayanlar için kısa bir rehber paylaşabilirim. Bu yazı, web sitenizin optimizasyon kontrol listesi ile ücretsiz SEO'nun temellerini ele alıyor. Bu, iş alanınızın veya sayfanın pazarlama sayfalarının sayfa içi / sayfa dışı düzeyinde alınacak tüm ilgili tanımları ve standart işlem sırasını kapsamaktadır. Ve şimdi size nerede başlayacağınızı ve online performansınızın hangi alanlarının öncelikle ve en başta odaklanacağını göstereceğim. Sonuç olarak, aşağıda listelenen ücretsiz SEO web sitesi optimizasyonuna yönelik basit girişimin, doğru SEO önceliklerini belirlemenize ve nihayet web sayfalarınızda (yani, Sayfa İçi SEO) gerçek uygulamalarına geçmenize yardımcı olacağını umuyorum. Bu şekilde, daha fazla çabanıza harcayacağınız sağlam bir temel oluşturacaksınız, bu sefer sitenizin veya blogunuzun doğrudan dışına alınacak (yani Off-Page SEO). Tüm söylenenler, daha ayrıntılı ayrıntılara girelim.

Google'ın Ücretsiz SEO'suna Giriş: Yeni Başlayanlar İçin Web Sitesi Kontrol Listesi

Sayfa Üzerinde Arama Motoru Optimizasyonu

Görünüşe göre, optimizasyona devam etmelisiniz. Web sitenizin veya blogunuzun sayfa içi SEO'sunun her öğesi, her şeyden önce. Orada her şeyi yerine getirdikten sonra, kendi sitenizin veya blogunuzun dışında kalan temel çalışmalarla biten genel optimizasyon çabalarını tamamlayabileceksiniz örneğin, bağlantı kurma, sosyal medya katılımı, marka bilinirliği / site yetkisi, vb. Sonuç olarak, daha fazla hedefli ziyaretçiyi doğrudan sitenize / blog sayfalarınıza yönlendirmeye başlamak için, başka bir şeyden önce optimize edilmesi gereken sayfa içi SEO’nun çok fazla temel unsuru olmayacaktır. İşte bunlar:

Anahtar Kelime Hedefleri

Web sayfanızda bulunan ana içerik temelli öğelerin yanı sıra, web kopyalamanızın doğru ana set için en iyi duruma getirilmesi gerektiğini unutmayın. Anahtar kelimeleri hedefleyin, kapsamlı bir anahtar kelime araştırması yürütmek, oradaki ilk işiniz olmalı. Sadece temel anahtar kelime analizini (yani eski eski Google’ın Anahtar Kelime Planlayıcı aracını kullanarak) değil, aynı zamanda yeterince derin rekabetçi araştırmayı da tamamlamayı düşünün. Niş rakiplerinizin en iyi anahtar kelime bulgularını incelemek için, web sitelerinin her köşesini Semalt Analyzer, Moz Explorer, Ahrefs veya SEO Spider gibi profesyonel analitik platformlar kullanarak incelemenizi öneririz.

Sayfa İçeriği

Sadece temel konu ile ilgili arama terimleri etrafında dönen benzersiz bir içerik üretmeye çalışırken (ör. Hedefe gömülü) "içeriğe dayalı" anahtar kelimeler), vücut içeriğinizin Google'ın arama tarama botları değil, okuyucular için yazıldığını unutmayın. Bu nedenle, potansiyel hemen çıkma oranınızı en aza indirmek için, en çok ilgi çekici web kopyası ve makaleleri / yayınları oluşturarak, temel olarak anahtar kelime tabanlı arama sorgularının ötesindeki kullanıcı gereksinimlerine ve amaçlarına odaklanmanızı öneririz..Böylelikle, yüksek kaliteli orijinal içerikle yeterince iyi bir kullanıcı deneyimi sağlayarak, kullanıcı ziyareti başına ortalama süreyi (aksi takdirde "kullanıcının ikamet süresi") artırabilirsiniz. Bu, bir noktada devam eden sıralamanızdaki büyümenizi ölçülebilir bir şekilde iyileştirir. Google’ın ilgili arama sonuçlarıyla ilgili ücretsiz SEO tabanlı web sitesinde (ücretsiz arama listesi veya organik SERP'ler).

MetaData

Google'ın Web Yöneticileri için Ana Kurallarında belirlenen genel gereksinimlere göre, Meta Başlık Etiketleriniz (aksi halde Başlık Etiketleri) ve Meta Tanımlama Etiketleri (aksi halde Meta Tanımlamaları) her zaman benzersiz olmalıdır ve her biri ilgili web sayfası (yani, ana içerik konusu, listelenen belirli bir ürün / hizmet veya site kategorisi / bölümü) ile anlamlı olmak üzere, en az bir üst ilgili temel anahtar kelime / uzun kuyruk ifadesi içermelidir. Bunu yaptığınızda, temel etiket gereksinimlerinin, Google tarafından kendisinin önerilen ortalama 55-60 ve 150-155 karakterlik bir ortalama sınırında yer almasının önerdiği Başlık Etiketi / Meta Açıklaması uzunluğuna uyduğundan emin olun. Ayrıca, Meta Tarifelerinizin her bir web sayfasıyla ilgili kısa bir özet oluşturacak uzun kuyruk arama kombinasyonlarına odaklanmasına paralel olarak, en güçlü anahtar kelime varlıklarınızı sıralama etkisinin en üst düzeye çıkarılması için Başlık Etiketinin başlangıcına yaklaştırdığınızdan emin olun. Bu kadar.

Çeşitli Öğeler

Resim ALT Etiketler - temiz bir parça veren belirli bir parça içerik oluşturmayı unutmayın & Web sayfalarınızdaki her bir görüntü için anahtar kelime temelli açıklamayı temizleyin. Aksi takdirde, büyük arama motorları (Google'ın kendisi gibi) görsel içeriğinizin neyle ilgili olduğunu “anlayamaz” ve “anlayamaz” ve tüm web sitesinin veya blogunun tam ve tam olarak doğru bir şekilde endekslenmesiyle doğal olarak potansiyel bir sorun yaratır. . Üstelik bu, ana hedef anahtar kelimelerinizi ek olarak kullanmak için başka iyi bir fırsatınız olacaktır (ancak bununla birlikte aşırıya kaçmayın). Aksi takdirde, “anahtar kelime fazlalığı” ile ilgili olası bir sorunu tetiklersiniz. Ancak, Image ALT Etiketlerini optimize ederken, neredeyse aynı şeyin Resim Dosyası İsimleriyle de yapılabileceğini unutmayın (hatırlanması gereken tek şey küçük harfli metin kullanmak ve her bir kelimeyi tire / altdiziler yerine tire ile ayırmaktır).
Başlıklar / Alt Başlıklar - vücut sayfası içerik yapınızı bir kez daha kontrol etmek için bir dakika ayırın. İdeal olarak, her bir web sayfası içeriğinin H1 / H2 / H3 Başlık / Alt Başlık Etiketleri ile iyi yapılandırılmış olması, böylece düz metin yazılarınızın her ziyaretçi tarafından taranması ve sindirilmesi kolaylaşır. Bunu yaptığınızda, her web sayfası için tam olarak eşleşen anahtar kelimeleri veya geçerli olduğunda uzun kuyruklu arama terimlerini içermesi gereken tek bir H1 Başlık Etiketi almanıza izin verildiğini unutmayın.
Özel 404 Sayfa - özel bir 404 sayfası oluşturma ve oluşturma hakkında iyi düşünmeyi unutmayın. Sadece ilginç bir sayfanın veya bir noktada, hatta komik bir şey göstermeyi hazırladığınızdan emin olun. Web sitenizin / blogunuzun kırık bir linkini / var olmayan sayfasını tıkladıktan sonra kullanıcının hayal kırıklığını hafifletmek için.

XML Site Haritası - kullanıcılara işleri kolaylaştırmanızı sağlayacak doğru bir site haritası oluşturduğunuzdan emin olun (örn. web sitenizin ana bölümleri ve iyi bir navigasyon deneyimi sağlayarak, arama motorları da (yani Google'ın tarama robotlarına endeksleme amacıyla kısa yoldan erişim sağlama). Bu noktada herhangi bir sıkıntı yaşarsanız, Internet'te bulunan birçok ücretsiz çevrimiçi araç tarafından sunulan site haritalarının oluşturulmasında kullanılan yarı otomatik yöntemlerden birini kullanmanızı öneririm.

George Forrest

Hi Lucy, recovering from a Google penalty can be challenging but not impossible. Here are some tips: 1. Identify the penalty: Determine the type of penalty, such as manual or algorithmic, and understand the underlying reasons. 2. Resolve the issues: Address the issues leading to the penalty, such as thin content, keyword stuffing, or unnatural backlinks.

Emily

Hi George, should I be concerned about duplicate content affecting my website's SEO performance?

George Forrest

Hi Emily, duplicate content can potentially affect your website's SEO performance. Search engines aim to provide the most relevant and unique content to users, so they may penalize websites with excessive duplicate content. Here are some considerations: 1. Internal duplication: Ensure your website doesn't have identical or highly similar content across multiple pages. Each page should offer unique value and serve a distinct purpose. 2. External duplication: Monitor and address instances where other websites copy your content without proper attribution. Report these instances to search engines if necessary. 3. Canonicalization: Use canonical tags to indicate the preferred version of a page if there are multiple versions with similar content. 4. Syndication and republishing: If you allow others to republish your content, ensure they use canonical tags or include proper attribution to avoid SEO issues. By monitoring and addressing duplicate content issues proactively, you can maintain a strong SEO performance. Let me know if you have more questions!

Tom

Hi George, do HTTPS and SSL certificates have any impact on SEO? Should I switch to HTTPS?

George Forrest

Hi Tom, HTTPS and SSL certificates do have an impact on SEO, and it's recommended to switch to HTTPS if possible. Here's why: 1. Security and trust: HTTPS ensures encrypted communication between the user's browser and the website, enhancing security and instilling trust in visitors. 2. Ranking factor: Google considers HTTPS as a ranking signal. While it may not have significant weight on its own, it contributes to an overall positive user experience, which can indirectly impact search rankings. 3. Referrer data: HTTPS preserves referrer data, allowing you to accurately track the source of your traffic. 4. Browser warnings: Browsers may display warnings to users when visiting non-secure (HTTP) websites, potentially discouraging visitors and affecting user experience. By switching to HTTPS, you enhance security, potentially improve search rankings, and ensure a smooth browsing experience for your visitors. Let me know if you need assistance with the HTTPS transition!

Website traffic: Engaging social media content can drive traffic to your website, which can improve its authority and potential for backlinks. 2. Brand visibility: Active social media presence increases brand awareness and reach, potentially leading to more brand searches and mentions, which can indirectly influence search rankings. 3. Backlinks: High-quality content shared on social media may attract backlinks from other websites, which improves your off-page SEO. Although social signals don't directly impact rankings, they contribute to your overall online presence, brand visibility, and SEO performance. Let me know if you need further clarification!

Enhancing your domain authority is an ongoing process that requires a holistic approach to SEO. Let me know if you need further assistance!

Emily

Hi George, is it better to focus on short-tail or long-tail keywords for SEO?

George Forrest

Hi Emily, focusing on a combination of short-tail and long-tail keywords can be beneficial for SEO. Here's why: 1. Short-tail keywords: These are shorter and more generic keyword phrases, typically consisting of one or two words (e.g., 'SEO services'). They usually have higher search volumes and competition. While ranking for short-tail keywords can be challenging, they often represent broader search intent and can attract more traffic if successfully optimized. 2. Long-tail keywords: These are longer and more specific keyword phrases (e.g., 'affordable SEO services in New York'). They typically have lower search volumes but offer better conversion opportunities as they align more closely with specific user needs. Long-tail keywords are valuable for targeting niche audiences and addressing specific search queries. By incorporating both short-tail and long-tail keywords into your SEO strategy, you can capture a broader range of search intent, attract more traffic, and increase conversion potential. Let me know if you have more questions!

Sophia

Hi George, what are your recommendations for optimizing URLs for better SEO performance?

George Forrest

Hi Sophia, optimizing URLs can positively impact SEO performance. Here are my recommendations: 1. Keep URLs short and descriptive: Use concise and meaningful words that accurately represent the content of the page. Avoid lengthy and complex URLs. 2. Use hyphens as word separators: Search engines interpret hyphens as word separators, making your URLs more readable. For example, use 'my-website.com/seo-tips' instead of 'my-website.com/seotips'. 3. Use lowercase letters: Ensure consistency and readability by using lowercase letters in URLs. Avoid using uppercase or mixed-case URLs. 4. Remove stop words: Eliminate unnecessary words (e.g., 'and', 'or', 'the') from URLs to keep them focused and more optimized. 5. Avoid keyword stuffing: While it's important to include targeted keywords in URLs, avoid stuffing them with excessive keywords or using unrelated keywords. 6. Match URL to page content: Make sure the URL accurately reflects the content of the page to enhance relevance for both search engines and users. Following these recommendations will help create clean, user-friendly, and SEO-friendly URLs. Let me know if you need more information!
