To succeed on building websites, you need to understand the first hand tips to your success. This is what this article is going to cover in detail.
The main pillars to success are only two.
1. Post regularly
In the beginning times of your site, post regularly. When I started X-droov with my friends, we used to post daily for two months. After that, we then reduced posting frequency.
The main issue here is to allow Google bots to master your website.
How Google bots work.
Bots are computer programs hosted by Google that crawl the web for new content. When these bots land on your site, the first thing they consider is when your site was created and the last time it was modified.
For a new site, bots won't crawl your site regularly. They might even crawl it once in the first month. As time goes, the bots will come back and start considering update frequency.
If by then, you are posting daily, those bots will start coming regularly to catch up with you.
As time goes, they will start indexing (puting your pages on Google search results) your pages and then your pages will start ranking on Google.
When your pages rank well, you get more people clicking on them so, more traffic and therefore more money from that traffic through methods explained before.
That's why posting regularly is the first step to success.
2. SEO
SEO(Search Engine Optimization) is an act of making your web pages viable for ranking highly on Google.
Your pages can be added to Google, but they won't rank high if you didn't do SEO well. The main target of SEO is to put your page on Google's top ten results so that you can harness much traffic.
So, how do you start SEO.
Several guys give in-depth guides on SEO online. We at x-droov cover our findings about SEO in our Blogging category.
I will only rub some facts on your face in this article. In SEO, you write posts while optimizing for a certain keyword. For example a post that's well optimized for a key word "red apple" will rank on Google page one for "red apple" search results.
You also need to write your post title and description with your main keywords in mind. This increases your chances of ranking high.
The other strategy is getting backlinks from other good sites. When you have several links back to your site from authoritative sites, you rank better than one without.
One way to get those links is guest posting. Guest posting is submitting articles to other sites for free in exchange for a backlink.
On X-droov, we've guest posted on several sites to be on the game.
As time goes, your site will become an authority and it'll get free backlinks from guys referring to your content.
