4.1. Understanding Google - Search Intent
Perhaps the most important thing is to understand what the customers who are searching want.
Are they looking to buy a particular product or service? Are they looking for a consultation? Or do they simple want to read up more on this topic?
Understanding SEO search intent has helped us serve more relevant information to users and thus help the overall quality score, user engagement metrics and conversion rates.
4.2. Establishing Credibility (Google’s E-E-A-T Guidelines)
From the onset, Google has been tackling the issue of misinformation or inaccurate content. Since Google is just an algorithm, how can they differentiate content that is credible from ones that are not credible?
Enter Google’s EEAT guideline, where they trust the “brand” and give sites with credible brands a much higher-ranking over those that do not have such a high credibility.
We found this to be exceptionally true in the medical, finance, legal and healthcare SEO, with our own clients benefitting directly from establishing credibility. Read more about Google’s EEAT guidelines.
4.3. Implementing the right on-page SEO
On-page SEO analysis and updates, which includes:
-
Meta-title, description
-
Page title, headers
-
Keyword density optimisation
-
Image alt text optimisation
By placing optimised keywords (and also keeping an eye out for over-optimisation) along with matching with search intent, we have consistently generated high rankings for our clients.
