16 best SEO practices for next 2019 to boost your business

Winter is here once again and this year is also about to end. The countdown to mark the beginning of the New Year 2019 has almost begun. Every nook and corner is preparing for the next festive season. In this circumstance, let's look at the alleged SEO techniques for 2019.

SEO is a volatile and constantly evolving industry. Some basic concepts in this industry have withstood the test of time. For example, ensuring a high rank in SERP is a challenging and time-consuming job. Fortunately, there are SEO techniques that can be easy to implement and you can count on them to achieve the desired results. In addition, most of these techniques involve basic SEO, so you can achieve them only without hiring an SEO agency.

Here we go!

1.       Optimize all your titles and headings: make sure your pages are oriented to the right keywords. As far as the title tag is concerned, remember that the title tag is the most relevant. Therefore, each title tag must contain the appropriate keywords. The placement of the keyword must be better at the beginning. On the other hand, H1 is the most important header, and your page can not afford to skip or ignore it.

2.       Web browser priorities: navigation is the most important structural element in any website. It is the fundamental thing that links to "other" pages of a site. It is better to have these links at the top of your page.

3.       Add bread crumbs to your page: Add breadcrumbs is always useful for websites when creating a structure. Especially, if you are an e-commerce site (s), you must add navigation routes.

4.       Implement tracking and monitoring on your website: if someone asks what an effective SEO technique is by 2019, most search engine marketers will positively identify this. Tracking and monitoring a website is crucial. If you do not make these efforts, you will never detect problems with your website. Proper tracking allows your site to be more improved and easier to use. Consider using the Google Search Console and Google Analytics to monitor organic search traffic on your website. These free tools also allow you to identify other problems on your site. You can install the tools easily, as long as you have access to the server. It is also possible to install them through add-ons for CMS.

5.       SSL Certificate: these days, as cybercrime is constantly increasing, the SSL certificate is an important classification factor for websites. The installation of SSL is quite easy. You can seek help from your hosting service provider.

6.       Secure your map list: This adds great value to your website. You can use Google My Business to have your site appear on Google. In addition, the lists will be linked to your website, which makes it easier for your visitors to locate you online, even if the SERP ranking of your site is poor. Once you have created the listing or claim your property, correctly complete all the necessary details about your business. You should also add excellent images of your location, equipment and products to make the listing more authentic.

7.       Compression and optimization of images: images invariably take up a lot of space on the server. As a result, they also take up a lot of space on the user's device, taking a long time to load. This slow loading time is a serious problem for any website and affects its conversion. Therefore, you must compress and optimize your images before uploading them to your site. Image compression minimizes the size of an image on the disk without affecting its quality or quantity. To compress your images effectively, you can have tools like the Smash sites for WordPress. Short Pixel is another favorite tool that has an API. Tiny PNG allows you to compress images each time before loading them.

8.       Increase the loading time of your site: apart from the images, there are other elements that affect the loading time of a site. These include related files and PHP conflicts. It is even known that database queries take a long time to load. To increase the loading time of your site, remove all unnecessary add-ons, especially the sliding add-on, if you have installed one. A static image with a CTA button is no less valid than a slider. Your visitors just click on the slider to take advantage of their offers. Instead, the sliding element takes up a lot of space and resources. Take advantage of the service of a large hosting provider. Include only the minimum resources that are required to load your page.

9.       Keyword-rich anchor text: use keyword-rich anchor text to link pages: it's an important SEO technique that you cannot afford to ignore. It helps you link relevant pages using particular anchor texts. The interconnection of the pages of the website not only has a lower risk than the creation of backlinks through anchor text rich in keywords. As you add new content, be sure to link it to other relevant pages as well.

10.   Link your business to relevant and high-authority websites: Google verifies your backlinks. Make sure your business is linked to related sites that enjoy high authority in your particular domain.

11.   Make sure your social media profiles are secure: experts from Duse, the well-known SEO agency in London, emphasize that their social media profiles are stable. It is possible to generate some initial backlinks to your site through these profiles. On the other hand, you may have to give up the business name you want if the competitor registers it in advance.

12.   Increase the ability to share your pages and publications: to attract more traffic to your website, you must share your content as much as possible. To make your content easily shared, be sure to include the Like and Share buttons on the pages. Stay focused on the platforms that are most frequented by your target audience. Use the "block content" feature to create interest in your content among your readers.

13.   Share the content of others too: it's always healthy to share quality content, even if it's not yours. Google appreciates this.

14.   Ask for comments from your friends and clients: ask your friends and clients for positive comments. The reports are an important factor in the local SEO ranking. The higher the Google My Business Listing number, the more value is assigned to your business and website. If you offer quality products or services, your clients will not avoid giving you good reviews. Your friends can also check your page on GMB and Facebook.

15.   Publish fresh, relevant and captivating content: the higher the quality of the content, the more traffic will reach your website. Post blogs at regular intervals to show Google that your company has an active site. Good quality content can also earn high quality backlinks.

16.   Make your website compatible with mobile devices: Google focuses on the indexing of mobile devices. In this circumstance, you must optimize your site for mobile users. Otherwise, Google may penalize your website. On the other hand, the number of mobile Internet users is increasing rapidly. Therefore, if you ignore your mobile visitors, the significant part of your potential buyers will remain outside the scope of your business.

The tips mentioned above are some of the best SEO practices for next 2019. You can consider them as your main SEO route map in the future.
