I lean heavily on Jay's "21 Minute Ranking Method" when creating posts. Most of the steps on this tutorial are included in there, as it's an excellent summary of what you need to do. Here are the remaining steps:
Internal Links
Once your post is completely written, make sure you include at least one internal link to content already on your website that is relevant to your new post.
This link will encourage your readers to investigate your site further, and may keep them from leaving so soon.
External Links
For external links, I list the URLs for the posts I've used in my research at the end of the post. I don't know if anyone else does external links in this way or not, but it makes sense to me.
If your reader wants to investigate your research sources more thoroughly, these links give him a chance to do so.
Add A Video
If you can find a YouTube video about your subject, you can add it, and it will give your post rating a slight boost. It's not required, but I think readers probably enjoy the chance to watch instead of just reading.
Change In Google Search Console
Be aware that there's a slight deviation here from Jay's post instructions, as the Google Search Console has changed. Instead of "fetch as Google," click on URL Inspection and enter the URL for your new post.
Then you will see a box that says "request indexing." Click on it. Now you have completed the Search Console entries.

One thing I do at the very last is share new post to social media.
Thanks for taking time to put it all down in a straight forward way.
I’m still learning new things. Jay trainings has not been possible for me to attend when I joined January 2019. I am totally Deaf. Without closed captioning, I missed out on a lot of Jay’s weekly trainings. I had to depend on lip reading him and try to catch the visual aspects of the topics. It wore me out. I stopped attending then my health problems rendered me unable to focus on building my niche website.
It was only about last Spring, someone in live chat or in one of Jay’s training live chat mentioned to me that Google Chrome desktop now has closed captioning subtitled option and the guy explained how to get it to work.
I tried it. OMG, my 👀 opened so wide in amazement how wonderful it worked compared to my speech to text app. Thanks to Google Chrome desktop I can attend and watch Jay’s training. This enabled me to start getting my site going after it’s been abandoned due to my health.
This is a game changer for me. I can read everything Jay says verbally. Even watch the replays with the captioning features. Its awesome. Too bad it’s not available for iOS as an app yet.
Looking forward to see more of your future trainings.
