If there is one thing you should know it is that SEO is a long game. There are no quick fixes or instant results, you have to combine both on-page SEO(on your website), and off-page SEO (on social media) to have a fully rounded and faster acting effect.
SEO is a long game - tips on how to play
Don't panic
A steady and consistent approach is key, as is patience. Don't panic and try to achieve everything at once; and don't overthink it! Work towards good quality content that will raise your domain authority and rankings; but prioritise quality and consistency over speed and quantity.
Always think about user intent
SEO always ties back to user intent and user experience. What are your potential users searching for, and can they find those answers in an easy and informative way on your website?
Ensure your website is mobile friendly, can be navigated with ease, and that you are answering the questions that your potential clients might be asking.
Interlinking (on and off-page)
An oft overlooked part of SEO is interlinking. This links to the point above about user intent and experience - you want to have the pertinent information available and connected on your website.
If you write new articles on a connected subject, you should circle back and interlink them so that your customers can easily click through and learn more.
<strong>SEO is a long game</strong>...
...but it is a worthy one. And while algorithms change regularly, quality content and user-focussed websites are always valued.
