The Secrets of Website Positioning

Website positioning.

For years, website positioning has fascinated not only SEO specialists and webmasters but also all website owners. Many people in these groups still believe that positioning is a short-term, one-off process. Nothing could be further from the truth! Positioning is a long-term, repeated process that has to be carried out again over a certain period of time.

Website positioning – choosing keywords.

The positioning process itself begins with choosing keywords. Selecting keywords is one of the most important aspects of website positioning. Well-chosen keywords must above all have a high number of monthly searches and low competition. Keywords must also clearly define the industry the website relates to and narrow down the target group. For example, if we sell cheap children's books, we will not position the website for the phrase "books", as it is too general and may bring visitors who are not at all interested in the subject. Instead, we will focus on the strengths of our business and on defining the target group. The strength of the business is offering cheap books, while the target group is people looking for books for children. A good phrase in this case could combine these two features, e.g.: "Cheap books for children". Constructing keywords in this way will not only increase the number of visits but will also result in higher conversion for the products and services offered on the website.

Website positioning – website optimisation.

The next important aspect of the positioning process is analysing and optimising the website. Webmaster tools are used to identify all the errors on the website. These may be errors in the site's structure, navigation and code. It is also checked which factors on the site may adversely affect its ranking in search engines. All of these tasks can be carried out with the right SEO tools and plugins, but only an SEO specialist can guarantee that they are used skilfully. It is also worth remembering that every change made to the website is indexed by Google's robots only after some time. Positive results usually take a few weeks, and sometimes even a few months.

Website positioning – link building.

Another activity that is essential in positioning is link building. Skilfully acquiring links from various valuable sources can dramatically improve a website's ranking in search engines. Link building can be divided into two categories: internal and external. Internal linking involves creating links within your own website. In each post you refer to another related post. This creates a kind of internal network that improves the website's ranking. External linking is simply acquiring links to your website from other external sources, such as internet forums or websites. When acquiring links, you need to consider above all the PageRank of the referring site. PageRank is a ranking that indicates the value of a given domain in Google's "eyes" on a scale from 1 to 10. It is therefore worth acquiring links from websites with the highest possible PageRank. At the same time, remember that links should be acquired regularly, in small numbers and from various sources, so as to give the appearance of natural linking. It is also important to vary the anchor (the text placed in the link). It should take different forms of the keyword.
