Five Key Takeaways
The technical side of SEO
Good content without SEO is nothing. Over the years, technical search engine optimization has become the groundwork for greater stability. In this type of SEO, brands are selling their content to audiences and search engines.
Glen Dimaandal from SEOWorks discussed the technical side of SEO where he emphasised the importance of it for every e-commerce website. In order to achieve an efficient website, brands need to make sure that all the products that they have on the website are indexed. If not, their products will not be listed on search engines.
Content is now being dominated by Artificial Intelligence
In today’s context, writers are no longer competing with human minds; they are now in a competition against artificial intelligence for content writing. Some brands prefer using AI-generated content rather than going through the writing process. Though this has become their strategy due to convenience, Mads Singers said that content produced by AI is not relevant.
Singers emphasized the importance of providing readers with all the information they need to know in one piece in order for every content writer to outperform AI. Quality content can be measured when you carefully and chronologically plot down all the details. Listing down all the information from top priority to least will help you as a writer come up with a piece of content that will fulfill the needs of your readers.
Know when to and not to do Link building
Link building has become every business’s strategy when aiming to earn site credibility and secure a high rank on google search engine results page. Brands do not have to do link building all the time. When a website is already ranking with the use of keywords, link building is unnecessary. Maximizing your assets and promoting your own domain and content is what will help you secure a rank.
During the conference, Bernard San Juan highlighted the 64-point plan in link building. In order to generate high brand equity, brands should at least garner an authority score greater than 35 and a domain count greater than 200.
How to become a leader in your niche
Some businesses and brands fail due to a lack of precise knowledge about their chosen niche. Angeline Licerio narrowed down key terms to remember when aiming to position your business as a leader in your industry of choice.
- Knowing what you are good at and where you excel as an agency will help your firm to minimize the risk of failure. (2) Determine your ability to produce valuable results; no wasted resources lead to better results. (3) Be realistic with clients; communicate and let them know the real you. Finally, (4) Concentrate on what you can offer based on your niche-specific skills, expertise, and knowledge.
Keyword Research
Keywords are the driver of organic traffic. E-commerce websites need to make sure that in every page, product and piece of content, relevant keywords appear. This will help them earn or secure a rank on the Google search results page.
Karl Kangur said that doing keyword research will help you gather as much data as possible, which will help you collect and collaborate insights that are helpful in achieving your desired result for your e-commerce website.
