There are three factors that directly impact your SEO ranking, even if you’ve only implemented a very basic search strategy on your site. The factors to be aware of are: • Page Load Time: If your website loads too slowly your visitors will bounce and likely go to a competitor’s website. Google (and all search engines) will rank your website lower because of a slow page load time. This is something to pay close attention as we draw closer to the major update confirmed by Google. The Core Web Vitals update in March 2021 will focus on three aspects that directly and dramatically, impact user experience on your site. Page load time features in this update and is paramount to securing your ranking or reaching the top of the SERPs. • Keyword Selection: Your keywords must be carefully chosen so your website and pages are listed under the correct search terms your ideal customer is looking for. • Content Creation: If you create quality content on your website your audience will find your site quickly, easily and will stay on your site to learn more. This increases dwell time which boosts rankings on search engines.
