SEO is no easy feat. About 50% of website traffic comes from organic search. Also adding to this is that 93% of digital engagement begins with a search engine. Although keywords play a huge part, several other Enterprise SEO Strategies & aspects merit consideration. These get explained through independent sub-headings.
Keyword Selection
Digital specialists can begin by asking, ‘what would I type to search for these products online?’ For better results, one can also take suggestions from family members, friends or current customers. Also crucial is understanding your competitors by reading up web content and seeing the metatags.
If you are using the Ubersuggest tool for keyword research, below are the steps to follow.
Step 1.
Identify and make a list of relevant “Seed” keywords based on the business.
Step 2.
Now using the Ubersuggest tool we can put the seed keyword in the tool and expand the list with related keywords.
For E.g. we are doing research for the keyword “SEO Service” for any project. So below is the screenshot of how you can do that.
Step 3
Refine or Categorize the Keywords
Once you get the list from the keyword tool, export that list and start analyzing or selecting the keywords according to the Search volume, SEO difficulty, and relevancy of the keyword for our business.
Site Architecture
Site architecture is akin to the blueprint. It sets the tone for customer and brand engagement. The crux is that site architecture must be easy to understand and navigate.
An excellent starting point is categorising the products and services right at the top of the page. Next is focussing attention on secondary aspects such as colour or material. Site navigation tools get driven by consistent experience in UX (user experience) and user interface (UI). The former defines the navigation options, whereas the latter provides visual apparatus through colours and fonts.
Once done, next is simplifying the purchasing process by introducing CTAs or Call-to-Actions such as an “Add to Cart” or “Buy Now” button.
The ideal website architecture looks like the below screenshot.
The content is placed in a hierarchy and this could be expanded easily in the future once the site grows.
You can check the website architecture using the screaming frog tool. In the tool you can, once you insert the link of your site for crawling. On the top navigation, you will see the “Visualization” option. In that, you will get the “Crawl Tree Graph” that you can use to check how the crawler sees your site.
Enhance your content
The crux is that queries can have multiple meanings and interpretations.
Getting down with interpretations
There are different categories for classifying interpretations. Dominant interpretations cater to what most users mean when searching queries. Common interpretations are where queries have multiple meanings. For instance, Mercury can mean either the planet or the element. Lastly, minor interpretations are less common and are locale-dependent.
Do-Know-Go
Another phenomenon that is crucial for segmenting search queries is Do-Know-Go. ‘Do’ caters to transactional queries. Here, users seek a specific action, such as booking a service. The ‘Know’ category signifies an informational query. The ‘Go’ category is navigational queries, typically brand-specific or entity-specific.
How to get the content ideas?
In the Ubersuggest tool, once you research your keyword and finalize the list. You can also get the content ideas for the same keywords in the tool.
Continuing the example of the keyword “Seo Service”, in below screenshot you can see how we get the content ideas around the keyword.
In the page speed insight tool, we need to paste our site link and click on the analyse. Below is the screenshot for the same.
Once the tool analyses the site it will show the site speed for desktop and mobile, metrics and opportunities to improve the speed.
Featured Snippet
A featured snippet, also known as answer boxes, is a block above the organic search results. It contains a summary, the page title, the webpage link and the URL. Featured snippets are generally of three types – the paragraph, list or table.
The Paragraph Featured Snippet
This is the most common format. In this, Google extracts a text from a page to answer the query. The intent is to answer the question immediately and include additional information. This format is typical of FAQ pages.
The List Featured Snippet
This is of two types: numbered and bullets. The former is ideal for explaining processes such as recipes. The latter is typically listicles and is apt for ranking or listing items. Some instances are feature lists, best of lists and ranked items.
The Table Featured Snippet
These are deemed ideal for more dynamic data. For instance, say you are searching for car sales for a particular year.
Targeting question-based keywords and understanding the search intent queries
Create better content than competitors
Organize the content structure of the page
Adding search intent questions in headers
Consistently Enhancing the content to get into the featured schema
The Rich Snippet
Google display additional data with normal search results. Google pulls this data from structured data markup that you add to your website.
Types of Rich Snippets
Organization
Article
Breadcrumb
Event
FAQ
Video
Local Businesses
All the above types of schema can be made using Schema markup generator tool. In the below example (snapshot) we have shown how an organization schema is made for Apexon.
In the tool, we need to add all the organization details like name, website url, logo url, all the social media links that are applicable. Once you add this detail, on the right side of the screen you will get the Json schema script that you can paste in the <head></head> section of you website.
We have just shown you the e.g. of organization schema, you can create all other schema’s using the same tool.
Internal links help search engines better understand website structures. They enable site owners, visitors and search engines to identify the most important pages. For instance, a website comprises the About Us, Resources, Products and Services sections.
External links are a way to endorse website content. These links can help cite a source, verify the information and render further context. For instance, publications can shed more light on a topic and answer additional questions.
