Weekly SEO top 5

This SEO list for bloggers and small business will show you five things you should do at least once
a week in order to ensure that your blog or website is driving as much Web traffic as possible.
In many cases, the SEO or search optimization related tasks mentioned in this list should be
performed more than once a week.

1. Create content
Add content to your site at least once a week. If you rely on revenue from the Internet then it is
definitely worthwhile creating content on a more regular basis, as a high authority, highly ranked
niche website can bring great ROI (Return on Investment) online.
New content must be original and relevant to your blog or business niche. In addition, you might
consider doing some SEO keyword research to further enhance the rankings of your content in
search.

2. Monitor analytics
Analytical data, provided by a service like Google analytics, can tell you a great deal about how a
blog or website performs. In particular, it is important to pay close attention to the following
aspects:
• Overall traffic volumes: This metric can provide strong evidence for how well or poorly
various marketing and SEO efforts are paying off.
• Traffic originating from organic search: This provides insight into how well your blog or
website ranks in the SERPs( Search Engine Results Pages).
• Top content: This can tell you which posts bring the most traffic and allows you to tailor
advertising or marketing on these pages, or work to help other pages move up in the
rankings.
• Conversions: If you have set goals, analytics can provide data about how well your blog or
site is converting traffic to meet predefined objectives, such as newsletter signups or product
purchases.
• Bounce Rate: A high bounce rate may indicate poor or confusing web design, or poor
quality content. A low bounce rate is a good indication that your blog or site is engaging
readers well.
