How to Bring your Website on Search Engine Results

• Domain Authority
  Your website identity is your domain. The first step of launching your online business is to search for a good domain. It will decide your identity and the brand image. The domain is your identity and should be reflecting your business. Try to make it relevant to keyword search. For example, if you have a financial blog, think for a domain like, Moneyexpress, financialadvice, moneymantras etc. This way some part of your SEO is already done with the help of your relevant domain name. If you select some out of the box domain which is not relevant to your business, in that case more efforts would need to be put into its sea. Domain Authority is also one of the important criteria in SEO.
• Content is the King
  Content is the king always. A website without relevant content is just an empty page. If you do sea and users start coming to your website but do not find relevant content over here, they are not going to return to your website ever. So try to update your website with relevant content on daily basis and also check the grammar of it. A spelling mistake and poor grammar can kill the Interest of people and so the sea efforts.
• Title and keywords
  Title of your page plays an important role in SEO. Title should be unique in all the pages and relevant to the information it carries. A good title acts like the keywords and a search engine also read them while making a search.
• Alt tag on Images
  If you have an image on your website, just make sure it carries alt tag also with it. Alt tag is an html text which appears when the image takes time to load up. Alt tag is important from accessibility point of view and is read by the screen readers and beneficial to those who are not able to see or color blind. Moreover, images are not read by search engines as they read only html text, so it is better to add an alt tag which is read by google or other search Engines.
• Importance of Social Media platform
  In this time it is hard to believe that any having internet does not have any presence on social media platforms. There are many social media websites like, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook etc. which allows becoming you a free member and sharing your photos, thoughts or any information. So try to get more social and upload any of your latest content or update of your website on them.

  You can use your blog for affiliate marketing also and can earn with it also. There are many affiliate programs, mine favorite is “Amazon Affiliate Marketing“.
