Step 1: Introduction & Setup

In order to start your SEO journey there are components you need to have in place.

First, through the process of setting up the relevant plugin and integrating Google Analytics, Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools you will create a set up for monitoring the success of your SEO through the traffic to your website.

Then you should use a Keyword Research Tool so you can get used to finding keywords for your website. This will help you to develop an SEO Strategy. 

Step 2: Keyword Research

With your SEO, keywords are the fundamental part of your strategy. Building a bank of short and long-tailed keywords is the building blocks of a successful SEO strategy. Have you taken the time to write down and analyse your keywords properly?

Remember that to find keywords you should think about the customer’s intent: 

  • Informational: To learn more 
  • Commercial: To find information for a purchase 
  • Transactional: Make a purchase
  • Navigational: Find a specific brand
  • Local: Finding local services

Step 3: On-Page SEO

On your website, you can find your on-page SEO techniques that make up the majority of how people view SEO. What is important to remember that on-page techniques alone cannot create a robust SEO strategy and you need to complete these stages alongside the other modules discussed in the Essential SEO Guide. 

In this section I show you how you can use SEO plugins to improve your SEO on: 

  • Titles
  • Meta Tags
  • Alt Text

By having an SEO Plugin you can then visually see your SEO scores, have ways of improving your scores with their on-page optimisation guidance and upgrade your content with the readability analysis.

Step 4: Content Audit & Creation

With your content, how often do you let it be guided by your keywords and SEO strategy? Your content plan should be reflective of your SEO, utilising keywords to boost your website’s organic traffic. 

I always recommend to schedule your content, to make sure you’re not under pressure to constantly produce and you have the broader sense of strategy rather than shooting in the dark.

  • and more!

Step 6: Local SEO Management

Local SEO isn’t always the first thing that comes to mind when you’re working on your SEO strategy. Yet, I want to highlight that it’s a great way to boost your ranking and reach a wider audience.

Local directories create backlinks, highlight your website associated with your researched keywords and back up a strong online presence.
