Google maintains a huge market share of online searches. For this reason you may want to focus your SEO (Search Engine Optimization) efforts on Google rankings.
Ranking high in a Google search index helps your site’s visibility, and helps direct traffic to you. But how can you achieve high rankings? By focusing on SEO.

SEO is a very involved process that can be costly; however it is a good investment in your business. Statistically, most people do not venture past the first or second page in a Google search index when they’re looking for information on the internet. That means, if your site isn’t properly optimized, you won’t make it to the top, and you won’t get seen – keeping your traffic down and ultimately spelling out the death of your online efforts.
Four pieces of the pie
Embarking on an SEO campaign can help prevent this. SEO has four main aspects that all need to be fully addressed in order to be successful at optimizing your website for search engines like Google.
The first thing to do is find out what specific terms your users are searching for. Keyword research helps you to understand what your users need, and allows you to fill that need. Knowing specific terms helps you to produce content that will cater to those terms, and implement them throughout your site to create an optimized environment that Google will view favorably.
Having the right keywords can help you achieve onsite optimization. Onsite optimization involves making sure your htaccess settings, having a static URL, 301 redirects and meta information are all elements Google considers when they rank you in a search index. So, monitor these aspects closely to ensure high rankings.
Once your site is fully optimized, it’s not going to do you much good if no one sees it, is it? Here’s where offsite optimization comes in handy. It involves driving traffic to your site, and getting your name out there. You can do this through social media, relevant backlink building and similar methods that increase popularity. The more places you saturate the internet with your website, the more likely you are to get backlinks, which means higher traffic numbers for you, more leads, more clients, and ultimately higher productivity.
Once you have all these aspects in place, conversion optimization can help you make the most of the information. It will help you understand the data coming in as a result of your keyword research and your on and offsite optimization techniques in order to not only more effectively get users to your site, but keep them there.
