How Google Search Works?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Google gets information from many different sources, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Web pages<\/li>
- User-submitted content such as Google My Business and Maps user submissions<\/li>
- Book scanning<\/li>
- Public databases on the internet<\/li>
- Many other sources<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
However, this page focuses on web pages. Google follows three basic steps to generate results from web pages:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crawling:<\/strong> The first step is finding out what pages exist on the web. Google constantly search for new pages and add them to its list of known pages. Other pages are discovered when Google follows a link from a known page to a new page. Still other pages are discovered when a website owner submits a sitemap for Google to crawl. Once Google discovers a page URL, it visits, or crawls, the page to find out what\u2019s on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indexing:<\/strong> Google analyzes both the text and non-text content like image, video and overall visual layout to decide where it can appear in Search results. This process is called Indexing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Serving:<\/strong> When a user types a query, Google tries to find the most relevant answer from its index based on different factors. Google tries to determine the highest quality answers that will provide the best user experience and most appropriate answer, by considering things such as the user\u2019s location, language, and device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Basic Steps to implement SEO in your website<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Inform Google which page you don\u2019t want to crawl by Google<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Using Robot.txt file you can block unwanted crawling from Google. A robots.txt file tells search engines whether they can access and therefore crawl parts of your site. This file, which must be named robots.txt and is placed in the root directory of your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lgconsultancy.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Robot.txt.png?ssl=1\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nFor sensitive information, use more secure settings to block unwanted crawling. Robot.txt is not the ideal option to restrict sensitive information to crawl, instead you must use \u201cnoindex nofollow\u201d metadata tag in the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lgconsultancy.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/NoIndex.png?ssl=1\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nCreate unique, accurate page titles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A
tag tells both search engines what the topic of a particular page is. Place the <title> tag within the <head> element of the HTML document and create a unique title for each page on your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Choose your page description which will describe the page uniquely and properly in your website. And use brief and descriptive title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid using same title in many pages, don\u2019t use a title which is not related to that page, avoid using long title for a page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lgconsultancy.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Title.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3653\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use the description meta tag<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A page\u2019s description meta tag gives Google and other search engines a summary of what the page is about. A page\u2019s title may be a few words or a phrase, whereas a page\u2019s description meta tag might be a sentence or two or even a short paragraph. Like the <title> tag, the description meta tag is placed within the <head> element of your HTML document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"30\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lgconsultancy.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/description-1024x30.png?resize=1024%2C30&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3655\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Description meta tags are important because Google might use them as snippets for your pages. Note that we say \u201cmight\u201d because Google may choose to use a relevant section of your page\u2019s visible text if it does a good job of matching up with a user\u2019s query.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid the following while creating the description tag-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Writing a description meta tag that has no relation to the content on the page.<\/li><li>Using generic descriptions like \u201cThis is a web page\u201d or \u201cPage about baseball cards\u201d.<\/li><li>Filling the description with only keywords.<\/li><li>Copying and pasting the entire content of the document into the description meta tag.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use heading tags to emphasize important text<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using meaningful heading help create a hierarchical structure for your content, making it easier for users to navigate through your document. Use heading tags where it make sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid the followings-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Placing text in heading tags that wouldn\u2019t be helpful in defining the structure of the page.<\/li><li>Using heading tags where other tags like <em> and <strong> may be more appropriate.<\/li><li>Erratically moving from one heading tag size to another.<\/li><li>Excessive use of heading tags on a page.<\/li><li>Very long headings.<\/li><li>Using heading tags only for styling text and not presenting structure.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add structured data markup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Structured data is code that you can add to your sites\u2019 pages to describe your content to search engines, so they can better understand what\u2019s on your pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lgconsultancy.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/StructureData.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3656\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understand how search engines use URLs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Search engines need a unique URL per piece of content to be able to crawl and index that content, and to refer users to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">URLs are generally split into multiple distinct sections:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">protocol:\/\/hostname\/path\/filename?querystring#fragment<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Google recommends that all websites use https:\/\/ when possible. The hostname is where your website is hosted, commonly using the same domain name that you\u2019d use for email. Google differentiates between the www and non-www version (for example, www.example.com or just example.com). When adding your website to Search Console, we recommend adding both http:\/\/ and https:\/\/ versions, as well as the www and non-www versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Avoid to have space in the URL, instead of space use hyphen (-).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use breadcrumbs in the page where possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consolidate duplicate URLs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a single page that\u2019s accessible by multiple URLs, or different pages with similar content (for example, a page with both a mobile and a desktop version), Google sees these as duplicate versions of the same page. Google will choose one URL as the canonical version and crawl that, and all other URLs will be considered duplicate URLs and crawled less often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this senario, you can tell Google which page you want to show in the search result by using Canonical link in the page as mentioned below-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <link rel=\u201dcanonical\u201d href=\u201dhttps:\/\/example.com\/pagename\u201d \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optimize your images<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use HTML image elements<\/strong> <img> or <picture> to embed images in your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Semantic HTML markup helps crawlers find and process images. By using the <picture> element you can also specify multiple options for different screen sizes for responsive images. You might also use the loading=\u201dlazy\u201d attribute on images to make your page load faster for your users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use the alt attribute<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Provide a descriptive filename and alt attribute description for images. The alt attribute allows you to specify alternative text for the image if it cannot be displayed for some reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Implement SEO in a specific section of a Page<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s assume you have a page in the website, where you are showing Heading, image, address related information and description section within a div. So, if you want to push the key information in Google search or tells Google to crawl the page these specific information you should implement this as mentioned below-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" height=\"388\" width=\"1024\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lgconsultancy.wpcomstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Section-1024x388.png?resize=1024%2C388&ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3657\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>itemprop<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The itemprop global attribute is used to add properties to an item. Every HTML element can have an itemprop attribute specified, and an itemprop consists of a name-value pair. Each name-value pair is called a property, and a group of one or more properties forms an item. Property values are either a string or a URL and can be associated with a very wide range of elements including <audio>, <embed>, <iframe>, <img>, <link>, <object>, <source> , <track>, and <video>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ways to manage your resources for discovery by Google<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can choose several approaches to help Google find your resources and data, from entirely passive to very pro-active. This section describes the general choices you might want to make to providing resource metadata\u2014sitemaps and resource linking\u2014to best position your content to appear in Search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Actively manage your URLs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can Google a direct list of URLs to your content, known as a sitemap. These speeds up the process of Google systems discovering your content. Typically, you host the sitemap on your domain in a place accessible by Googlebot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Advantages: Enhances the performance of your rich results in Search. Speeds up the process of ingesting new and low-referral content into the system. This approach removes one potential obstacle for getting your content quickly served by Google in a variety of forms.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disadvantages: You do the additional work of providing resource metadata, which is your sitemap and relationships you specify between your web pages, your app, and your AMP pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Submit new and updated URLs to Google<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While you can merely host your sitemap on your site for our systems to discover, you can also provide notification about new URLs or existing URLs that have changed content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For new URLs, submitting your sitemap helps Google more quickly discover them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also add the below meta tag in head section of your page. Where you can mention revisit timeline for Google bot-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\"><meta name=\u201drevisit-after\u201d content=\u201d7 days\u201d \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Advantages: Submitting URLs to Google helps drive the timeliness of content updates from your domain to Search.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Disadvantages: Not many. Once you\u2019ve done the work of creating a sitemap, submitting it to Google is a simple process and many content management systems offer programmatic sitemap updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Off-page SEO<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Off-page SEO refers to anything done outside of your website with the potential to affect search engine rankings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Creating valuable back-links<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the most talked about aspect of digital promotion, and for a good reason. The more efficiently the site is promoted by links, the higher it is in Search Engine Results Pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The more difficult it is to get a link from a site, the more efficiently it will work. With the right approach, any link acquisition method works, including outreach, blogs, scholarships, donations, press releases, as well as links from educational (.edu) and government (.gov) websites and crowd marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Media Marketing:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Search engines do not see social media as a strong ranking factor, but it can still dramatically impact SEO nonetheless. There are several ways in which SMM improves SEO:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>SMM ensures efficient distribution of your content across multiple outlets.<\/li><li>It enhances your brand reputation & recognition.<\/li><li>SMM helps boost your local SEO rankings.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guest Blogging<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most advantageous off-page SEO activities \u2013 guest blogging \u2013 helps you to build both links and your reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whenever you are making a guest appearance as a writer on another website or blog, the site often allows you to insert a link that leads back to your own site in the post or author bio. This is an added bonus point for your brand awareness efforts as your name and brand are being featured in a new place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customer Reviews<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When working on off-page SEO in 2021, the role of customer reviews is very important. Reviews guide how regular users and search engine crawlers perceive your brand. Sites with positive reviews appear more credible and therefore are more likely to get to the top of search results. Google, Facebook, LinkedIn are some popular options for providing and getting reviews. For software company Glassdoor reviews are also very effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Local Listings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Local SEO is a separate branch of SEO. However, there are two off-page SEO techniques that deserve a special mention in this article\u00a0 \u2014 your Google My Business and citations listing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Google My Business<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any actions focused on optimizing your webpage to get it to rank higher on the Google Map Pack are regarded as off-page SEO. An account in GMB is a powerful tool essential to boosting the digital presence of local startups and businesses. Google map pack is the general term used to describe the location based results you see on a Google search results page, where it lists local businesses and identifies their location on a map with little place marker icons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Citations<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A citation is a reference to your company or brand online that features your NAP (name, address, and phone number). These business listings on Google My Business, Facebook, LinkedIn and other online directories are considered a key tool in advancing your brand on the web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Citations is one of the most actionable off-page SEO methods that can help you to step your game up. If you are looking to rank for keywords tied to a specific geographic location, for example, \u201ctop software company in New York\u201d, citations are a proper way to achieve that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the above post we discussed about the basic on page and off-page SEO which can easily be managed and maintained by the developers and designers. You \u00a0don\u2019t need help from any SEO expert to manage these basic things in your website to rank higher in Google search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will discuss about some advanced SEO features mainly followed by SEO experts in a future post.
