Google is not something that can be achieved over night. However, you
can make real and measurable progress by getting involved in some quick
and simple SEO practices.
3 easy ways to help your site rank higher
- Spread the word with free PR
– Got a new product or a fantastic new contract? Then tell the world!
There are a host of free PR sites out there that will help you get your
website out there to the masses. A quick Google search for "free pr
sites" gives you a ton of options!
- Get involved with industry specific forums -
You're an expert at what you do. So, why not put this to good use and
sign up (for free) to some industry specific forums. Helping other
people in your industry by answering questions online builds a solid
and dependable reputation that people trust. Remember to put a link to
your website in your forum signature too!
- Analyse what your competitors are doing – Spend a bit of time checking out where your competitors get their links from. Simply head to Google and type in (without the quotations) "link:" followed by your competitor's URL. For example: "link:www.bbc.co.uk".
