Google SEO: 5 Steps That Will Impact Your Ranking

Google SEO has become absolutely necessary for getting your business noticed online.

Google SEO has become absolutely necessary for getting your business noticed online. There are many steps you can take to improve your search engine ranking position (SERP) on Google and other search engines. Here we will discuss 5 things you can do immediately that will have a significant impact.

1. Optimize page titles and meta descriptions.

Page titles appear at the top of an internet browser, or in the tab or window label of an open web page. Best Google SEO practice is to title all web pages using keywords and phrases that searchers use to find your site, and which match key terms throughout your content.

The meta description is created in the HTML code side of the website and should be a brief description of your page content, including the keywords, that is easy to read and grammatically correct.

2. Claim your Google My Business listing.

One of the most important tips for SEO in Kansas City is to claim your business listing on Google. Taking ownership of your GMB online listing is a crucial step toward ensuring your business shows up on not only local search results but also on other important Google services, such as Google Maps.

3. Request reviews on Google and Facebook.

Real customer reviews have more impact on your ranking factor, click-through rate (CTR), and conversion rate optimization (CRO) than almost any other SEO strategy. Feedback from your customers both builds your relationship with them and gives you credibility with potential new customers. 

The best way to get a review is to ask for it. You can request reviews in social media posts as well as in other communications with your customers, like providing links in your electronic receipts.

4. Optimize for voice search.

Voice Search Optimization is one of the leading website development trends. Technologies like Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, and Google Assistant are increasing in popularity as users get on board with all the fun, innovative uses for this new technology. Optimize for voice search by using longer, more natural-sounding keyword phrases.

5. Optimize your content for Google SEO.

Informational, high-quality content that is useful, original, and well-written is a critical component of a web page and, importantly, is given higher value in search results. Regularly adding new, updated content is also a strategy for getting a higher rank in search results.

Everyone on the team at KC Web Specialists is skilled, caring, responsive and responsible. They did an awesome job creating our website (gcath.org) and answered probably 1,000 questions we had. They helped us stick to a reasonable time line to get this done, and were very patient with us as we figured out the various elements and functions we needed and wanted for our site. It's a comfort knowing they are not fading into the background now, but will be available for training and support moving forward as we need them. Pick this team for your next website need.
Response from the owner:Thank you Suzette. Being the Web design and SEO answer folks is what makes us happy :-) Glad the timeline worked for you all and look forward to being your ongoing local Website development support team. Thanks again.

They are very easy to work with. Creative, professional and keep your project on track! They even helped us with changes to our site long after our project was completed. I would recommend Chris and his team to anyone wanting to build a website!
Response from the owner:Hi Angela, thank you so much for the kind review. We like to think of ourselves as your local Web design partners. We're there when you need us. Whether it's two days from now or two years, the sites we build are made to last and we appreciate that we can help if/when the need arises. Thanks again,

KC Web Specialists have it together. Period. I am President of a Kansas non-profit and we recently had their team work with us to create a new website. Every step of the process was a positive experience. Everyone was timely, professional, and thoroughly skilled at what they do.

In addition, I'd like to call out two people--Chris Nastav, the owner, and Jeff Forrester, a staff member who offers support and troubleshooting. You can't find more exceptional service anywhere.
Response from the owner:Hi Sandy, you're the best. Thank you so much for your trust in KC Web Specialists, LLC. for your non-profit Website design project. You and your team were fabulous to work with. Happy to be your local partner. Thank you again for the kind words.
