Your website’s core ranking factors are its content and its on-page SEO, closely related to each other. However, people spend a lot of time on the website before they actually begin to look at your product.

They visit your website to read the articles, find your phone number or other contact information, or read the content on your home page. To get more visitors to your website, first, you’ll have to improve on your on-page SEO.

On-page SEO is a broad term that can include the structure of your website, keywords, meta tags, links, images, and design. Since the keyword placement in the title, subtitle, and meta description can help your website rank higher, you’ll have to optimize your website for these keywords.

4.    Promote your content.

Make sure to promote your content. Promoting your content could be as simple as sending an email to a few people you think would be interested in your content.

Ask your friends and colleagues to do the same thing. Fill out Google’s Queries Fill out the queries on Google and other search engines like Bing, Yahoo, and others to improve your site’s search engine ranking.

For example, if your website specializes in SEO consulting, go to Queries and type “search engine optimization” into the Google search bar.

The title and description of your page will determine how much traffic it will generate. To maximize the number of visitors your page gets, you need to make sure that the title and description have keywords.

When someone clicks on your link, they’ll get a pop-up that asks them what they’re looking for. Make sure the first word or phrase of your description has a specific keyword in it. This will tell search engines to send the right traffic to your page.
