FOUNDED IN CLEVELAND, OHIO 15 YEARS AGO,
THE SEARCH GURU DIGITAL MARKETING AGENCY
IS HERE TO MEET YOUR NEEDS
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Optimized content is content that is ranking high in search engine results pages.
Different key terms require different levels of optimization: highly competitive terms require more work, while new/niche/less competitive topics require less optimization.
Depending on competitiveness or a.k.a. “keyword difficulty” of a search term, you might need to:
- Add multiple subtopics to cover different aspects of the search intent
- Add image/video content to make the page more appealing to the users
- Improve on-page elements such as heading structure, alt elements, etc.
- Work on gaining backlinks for the content or increasing the overall domain authority of the website.
Here’s the template for content optimization we use at TSG – Content Planning and Outlines template, which will help you work on optimizing your content. And feel free to book a free work session with us to discuss the best approach to content optimization based on the resources you have available.
Optimizing website content is a data-driven process which starts with keyword research. To start optimizing your content, first check for which keywords the page is currently ranking for.
- You can find this information within Google Search Console > Performance > Landing Pages > click on the page URL, then check the queries.
- Or you can use external tools like SEMrush, Ahrefs or MOZ.
When you see the keywords, you need to choose which ones of them are relevant to your business.
Then you need to create a plan for the content update:
- will you be expanding the existing paragraphs
- adding more subtopics
- or you need to rearrange the page layout.
When updating your copy, you can also plan for making the page better from CRO (conversion rate) perspective. Think about:
- Adding social proof/testimonials to your page
- Explaining “the process” — what can customers expect from you
- Add FAQs — they are excellent for both SEO and CRO.
- We invite a team of 3+ people on these trainings.
- We discuss what has changed in the digital field for the last 1-3 years so you can update your knowledge and strategy.
- During those sessions we usually identify some quick wins, which are easy to implement.
- In 80% of the trainings we decide to do follow-up work sessions with 1 or more issues to work on.
- There we do some prep work by pulling data to support the issue discussion and work together to identify workable solutions for the company.
- In addition, you’ll get free access to the competitor review and content optimization templates to help you implement easier what you’ve learned on the training.
- We started this series of free trainings and work sessions after the first set of findings from our research: The top 3 issues of b2b Content Marketers. The trainings were a continuation of the research to dig deeper into those issues and see how we can find solutions for them.
- During lockdown, these training managed to fill a gap and decrease stress levels with fellow marketers, who experienced increased demand for digital marketing knowledge for their teams.
- We didn’t plan for it, but those sessions also helped us learn a lot about figuring out how to plug in digital channel tactics into existing marketing mixes of established companies, who were recently turning into digital and were operating with limited resources. These solutions are specific for every company and are born only through open discussions.
