Review your data from 2015

Study Your Competition

Compare your “Top 10” keyword rankings and study which sites rank better than yours to determine why. You can manually perform this task or use software like SEOquake to save time.

Perform a Keyword Analysis

Next know what keywords convert best for the products and/or services you offer. Keyword research provides the most valuable information for a successful Search Engine Marketing campaign. Also refer to our article about the impact of Long-Tail keywords. Remember, this is the most critical step to optimizing your site.

Optimize your on-page content

On-Page optimization refers to factors that have a direct effect on your Web site or Web page listings in the natural search results. These factors are controlled by the coding on your page. Optimizing your on-page content is vital to the success of your online rankings. Every site ranks, but is it optimized to rank high in Google for your most important keywords?

 Schedule blogs on a regular basis

Google loves to index fresh and new content. Blogging is one of the most important factors to ranking your site high in the natural search results. Update your blog or page content every week with fresh content. The more content you have, the more likely you will show up in the Google search results.

Share your content on your Social Media channels

A great strategy to keeping your Social Media accounts updated, is to share your recent blog posts on your social accounts such as FaceBook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google plus. This will improve your social signal and it provides great links to your web page content.

Perform a detailed link audit

With Google preparing to roll out its Penguin Live update algorithm in the 1st quarter of 2016, it is imperative to review your current backlinks profile and perform a detailed Link Audit to discover any poor links that may be negatively affecting your Google rankings .

Set a proper budget to meet your goals
