7 Points to Consider in the eyes of Google!
Hello Guys 'n Dolls!
Google sure has us all 'buzzing around' trying to figure out where our websites will now 'stand' - read rank - in their recent algorithm shakeup or was it a shakedown?
In any event, we all need to UP our game!!
Of course, if you want to keep in step with your online presence. Here are 6 points to consider on how to bring attention to your website, and hopefully pique the interest of Mr. [or is "Mrs"] Google??!!
Things that could influence the ranking of a website:
- Traffic
- Time spent on the website
- The amount of pages the user browsed each session
- The content length, i.e. the word-count, and
- The bounce rate.
Other things that could or might (no one knows for sure):
- Website security, i.e. https
- Inclusion of videos, a nice treat, but does it do much?
Well, there you have it. More food for thought.
And you thought all you had to do was 'just' write!!
Hmmmmm!!!!
Much success to us all.
Namaste

Hello again Michelle, I am Mario, I thank you for this announcement.
Now, if it is not too much to ask! , Can you give me some page where they say this type of logos in movement?
Best regards, have a great time on this day.
Sincerely:
Mario
You're welcome, Mario. I would love answer, however, I am not sure what you mean. Could you please rephrase?
Thnx

Awesome observation, JB. Either way, they stay on your site as long as the content 'holds their attention' AFTER they have read the title.
Did you know that 80% of readers don't get beyond the title? You have to GRAB them there and hope your content will do the rest.
And you thought this was an easy job :)
It's a good thing we all love to write or even aspire to make a difference.

Thank you :) you're too kind... Too true, if the video doesn't GRAB them, then it's not worth the work to put it up. The title plays a huge part in getting people to click on it to see what it's about. However, using a 'Clickbait' title, just to get people to click it, will only backfire as your audience will feel cheated.
This line of work is never easy :) It's certainly very interesting, and I have to say it's also quite challenging at times, but never easy...
The love of the written word certainly makes a difference, Michelle...

Focusing on engaging content that my audience can use to build their business. Very hard to keep up with Google.
Yes, it can be a challenge, however, it behooves us to 'keep up with the times' or it will most certainly pass us by.

Was told BING is more User friendly than Google. TRUE, NOT TRUE?
Really dunno, P. In the long run, they may be watching each other and who knows, secretly working behind the scenes.
