Before we dive in to search engine optimizing your Blacksmithing Workshops website it's vital to understand what we are trying to achieve at a top level. Get this wrong and all your SEO efforts will be wasted.
So let's take a step back to see the big picture. We have two key aims here:
You may well have read that shady SEO companies can help you achieve Aim 1 fairly quickly but when the search engines spot their dodgy practices its 'poof' and you are gone from the search engines of the internet. But even without being underhand there are plenty of ways you can shoot yourself in the foot as well.
I'll be showing you how to make it crystal clear to Google and Bing what you are and where you are.
Once search engines understand this they think: "OK, so this website says it is a Blacksmithing Workshop at location X ... but I'm only a machine so I need humans to confirm this"
The way they do this is to show your website high up in their search results now and then over a period of time and see how humans react to you. In SEO we sometimes refer to this as the Google Dance because where you appear in the search results 'dances' around.
The search engines will gain confidence in your website if it sees two positive signals:
Signal 2 helps search engines remove spammers - those who pretend to be a Blacksmithing Workshop but they are really offering something else like casino games, adult content or that "gadget everyone is going crazy for". You know the type of thing.
But there are plenty of other reasons people back out:
So website design and technical performance are key to getting, and maintaining, high rankings and this course will show you how to avoid the potholes of both.
But how can you win with Signal 1 and get more people clicking through to you more often than to the websites of other blacksmithing workshops)?
Let's look at what we're aiming for and why with the search engine listing for an imaginary blacksmithing workshop called Preonus in the fictional town of Woodydale.
