How to Make Your SEO Efforts More Effective

In the past, owning a website was a sure-fire way to draw in customers. Today, things have gotten a bit more complicated than that. It seems that just about everyone has a website--your competitors are also online, drawing traffic away from your site.

Search engine optimisation is a fantastic way to boost your online presence and shine the spotlight on your business. After all, most consumers are instantly drawn to click on the first few search results a search engine brings up. As of today, you may already be doing SEO, but how effective have your efforts been? If you could use an extra boost, try incorporating these tips:
Evergreen Content

In a nutshell, evergreen content is an article with information that is always relevant no matter the season, e.g. how to avoid dwelling fires. Like fine wine, the benefits of evergreen content only becomes more effective over time as it gains reputability, so try prioritising it over “flash in the pan” content.

Guest Blog

Is there an online “journal” for your industry? If yes, try submitting a few articles. Your goal here is to build your authorship. Once you accomplish this, Google will see that you are an industry leader and give a slight boost to anything you write in the future. At the same time, the content you produce for third-party websites can link back to your website, so you get an immediate benefit from guest blogging.
