W13: Ranking, Link Building & Google Analytics

  This week I learned more about ranking, link building, and Google Analytics. Ranking, link building, and Google Analytics are all important aspects of SEO. Ranking is the process of getting your website to appear higher in search engine results pages (SERPs). Link building is the process of getting other websites to link to your website. Google Analytics is a tool that helps you track website traffic and performance. Some tips I found for ranking higher in SERPs: Use relevant keywords throughout your website, including in your title tags, meta descriptions, and header tags. Create high-quality content that is relevant to your target audience. Optimize your website for mobile devices. Build backlinks from high-quality websites. Here are some tips I found for link building: Create high-quality content that other websites will want to link to. Comment on other websites and forums. Guest blog on other websites. Share your content on social media. And here are some tips I found for us...

W12: Social Media for SEO & Social Networking

  I learned a lot this last week. I learned about how to use different types of social media to expand my networking and to promote my business through social media. I had to learn everything about the social media platforms from the ground up since I haven’t really used any social media platforms before. I found it really interesting that there is so many ways that you can use social media to promote your business. I had never thought about all the different ways social media platforms could be used and so I had never cared to create profiles on them before. I will have to learn more about them and how to use them better to promote my business through trial and error as I go along since I know there are definitely better ways to use them then what I am trying right now. So I made a goal to learn more about each of the different platforms and to find new ways to promote my business through social media.

W11: Landing Page Optimization & Basic SEO

 I learned a lot this week and also stumbled through quite a bit trying to understand everything. I realized that I will have to work hard to be good at this kind of thing but I still really enjoy it. I went through my landing page and cleaned it up a bit and I also found that I started to get more clicks pretty fast. I went from around 4 clicks to around 10 clicks with just a couple of changes. It was great. I found it really interesting to learn about SEO (Search Engine Optimization). I found some of it made sense that it was important to the search engines but there were other things that surprised me. I didn’t realize that wording was so important on the website itself instead of just titles and headers. This week again keywords were emphasized as being important. So I will have to take my time and go through and place key words into specific spots throughout my pages. I know that my website needs a lot of work and wish that I had more time to put into it.
