No. 3 Title Tags
The title tag is the main element used by search engines to determine the purpose of your page.
Ensure that it has the exact focus keyword as Google calls it a tiny ranking factor.
Heading Tags have a hierarchy the Lower the number the more important that Title is. H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6. Switch on website designer also make H1 larger font than H2, H2 larger font than H3, H3 larger font than H4… you get the idea…
For Rule of Thumb for how many Header Tags to use on a page…
- H1 ONLY have one per page
- H2, maximum two, as long as you have 2 subheading that relate to the H1
- H3 three or more
- H4, H5, H6 the higher the H Tag number the more you can have
NOTE: Do NOT over use Heading Tags they are there for a specific purpose to let Google Bots know which Heading and words are the most important… The more you have the LESS Effective they will be.
No. 4 Image Alt Text
Optimizing visual elements on your website is more important than you think. Each image must have an Alternative Text.
Alt Text is the dedicated description written for each media. They appear only when the media doesn’t load for a user, so they know what the media was intended for.
Plus that is what Google Bots read, as Google and the bots can NOT see images they rely on the Title and Alt Text. Your image Alt Text also helps with “Voice Search’ and visually impaired people rely on image Alt Text to understand what the image is.
Alt-text is useful to rank your website media in the images section of Google and thus, extremely vital for SEO.
