Showing up in Google Search Results with SEO.
Google search phrase results and search engine optimization go hand in hand. Also known as SEO. Showing up in Google search results is where the real traffic comes from. Therefore many sites that show up in searches. On the Google search result page one. Is not necessarily a Page Rank One site. Quite the contrary. Because to show up in Google results is determined by your target phrase density. Or target keyword density. The trick however is to use the phrase or target keyword within context of the content. Therefore desperately cramming a bunch of search phrases and target keywords together will no longer work. Because search engines prefer high quality content. The days of being a copy/paste marketer is over.
Page rank is important especially for building reputation. Therefore many newbie bloggers are blinded by the SEO part with content creation. And the perfect target keyword and Google search phrase. Density and context is often forgotten in the rush to beat SEO. Therefore to show up in Google search results you will have to comply with four basic rules. Keyword and phrase placement, keyword and phrase density along with the quality of your content. And lastly high quality back-links to similar content.
How to leverage Keyword and Search Phrase Placement.
To be able to research the relevant keywords and search phrases to show up in Google search results. You will need a tool called the “Google Keyword Planner”. Which you can access from inside your Google Ads (Formerly known as Google Ad-Words) account. Then use single keywords and search phrases of max 2 – 3 keywords together. Your Google results will show as “Your Search Term” and below that “Idea”. You should use both these groups of keywords in your content. But always target keywords and search phrases with a high volume search and low volume competition.
Google search results for high volume web traffic. Place the keyword or phrase you wish your blog or post to show up in Google results. As the first word or phrase for your post or blog title. Which means it’s the first word identified when your site is crawled by the Google spider. To reach an interested audience. Furthermore you want to populate the post content with the target keyword and search phrases. And try to make the target phrase also the first sentence of every paragraph.
Google process Billions of searches per day (Around 3.5 Billion). But the challenge is to use it within context of the sentence. And lastly all the keywords and Google search phrases you wish to target must be present within the first sentence of the first paragraph.
Google Results and Keyword Suggested Density.
The target keyword and/or search phrase must show at least once in the title. But try to include the target keyword and search phrase no more than twice in the Meta description. And as for the post or page content. Best results will require a keyword density of no less than 0.6%. Which roughly calculates to around 6 times. But 6% is the minimum requirement for Google search results. The suggested maximum however is around 2 – 4 times that (1.2% – 2.4%) for better results. But no more than 29 – 38 times. Depending on the length of the post or page content. I have to add however that having a keyword density that high will require a lot of work. To show up in results you also want to use the target keywords and phrases as tags. But don’t forget to add descriptions to all the tags you use.
Google search also look for keywords and search phrases within a certain tag description used for the particular content. In fact all categories and tags should have keyword rich descriptions. Which is a great advantage in the quality of the results. Again back to the basics of SEO. The art of telling search engines what your work is about. But it is often a little more difficult than anticipated. Because content need to be created over time. In order to maintain uniqueness through recognition. Along with keyword and search phrase density in Google. There is also the use of transition words and sub-titles that play a crucial role. To show up in Google results.
Google search results and Unique Quality Content.
Results are greatly boosted with unique quality content. Something not elsewhere available on the internet. Therefore Google search is also leveraged to gain the knowledge needed. To create such content and get recognized as a professional in your field. That is also the only “Secret” about making money online. Through research you must offer your visitor exactly what they are looking for. Therefore the targeted keyword and/or phrase need to be painfully precise. You need to gather as much knowledge as is needed. And then turn that knowledge into an online income stream. To show up in Google results all comes down to placement and quality content.
Google search results is the position your site shows on the result page. Whether you will profit from those visitors is entirely up to you. And the only way you can do that is by offering value. While also focusing on the first impression. What is it that your visitor sees first when following your link? Does the first impression (Post Featured Image) suggest a solution to a common need? Does it raise curiosity to want to know more?
Professional content is King. And that will never change. But you have a vast ocean of information to discover with Google search. All the knowledge you could possibly need to offer the required value. And show up in the top of Google search results.
Link to High Quality Sites from Inside Your Content.
