Keyword optimization is the process of researching, evaluating and choosing the right and sharp keywords to develop web traffic from search engines to your website.

3. Develop rich content/media visually
Rich Content is not just a word. Let me tell you why?
A massive amount of content has been developed every single moment. It can be developed by humans, machines and other technical resources. But a simple content could not create a valuable space for your webpage. All the content must be organized, patterned, interpretable and then analyzed to get more valuable space. Also to make great engagement with the audience, try to develop rich content visually such as

· Interactive contents
· Videos

• High-quality images develops the professional status of your webpage
• Interactive contents act as a bridge between you and the audience. Also, it helps to develop the community and page visit in a great manner.
• Videos create better reach of your brand/product in the audience’s mind.
• Data visualization creates a better understanding of your business operations and activities.
4. Internal Linking
Internal linking is one of the best optimization techniques of your existing content. Internal linking creates the relationship between the content of different pages on your website. For example, when searching for how to draw a peacock, in that related page you can also add the link for animals, drawing & illustration which are all related to your search page. In the following screenshot, you can see clearly.
Interlinking used to build a strong and elegant internal structure of your website. It will help Google Bot to find deeper page identification even though it is not always visited.
For example, a company sells different types of corner shelves. Its page can be interlinked with the related web page under the search term of wooden corner shelves. Interlinking of “wooden corner shelves” and “corner shelves” page could help Google recognize it and should return that page for the given search terms.
Interlinking manipulates better crawling and indexing benefits for Google search. It creates a better website rank on search result pages.
5. Create valuable content to encourage backlinks
The most frustrating part of the optimization is creating backlinks to your landing page. Backlinks also are known as external backlinks. It is the process of linking your website with another website somewhere in their content. That could be on a single page, on blog writing or any other service page.
How can you create genuine backlinks to your website?
Write more guest posts:
Most websites and blogs post a writer biography at each post and allowing freedom to create backlinks for writer’s website. By writing guest posts on other websites it will show your industry expertise through them.
Collaborate on creative and interesting projects
Collaborating with creative happenings is a wonderful way to create backlinks to your website. Through this you can reach more number of audiences at the same time itself.
Agree with others to credit their work for you
All the creators are always looking to create and manage portfolios of their talent. These portfolios have some kind of backlinks to your website for viewers to review about their releases.
6. Keep clear in website navigation
Website navigation is nothing but linking between the pages on your website and how the audience can navigate from one page to another page. Website navigation is an essential thing for giving the best experience for your audience.
If any new audience reaches your website for the particular search terms, and if your navigation choices are not clear, then a new audience may select to back button at their first visit itself. So when a new audience visits your website make all the amenities for them to stay with your website. Based on your content apply main navigation (ie) above the fold or left side column or else secondary navigation (ie) below the fold or right side column.
7. Never forget to write useful Meta description
If new audience searches for your content, they may try to read your Meta description first without visiting your website. Meta description is the short snippet that Google adds under each search terms result. So include something brief to the audience to enter into your website.
Example: If you are searching for redbus in Google, you can see the following screenshot. See what kind of Meta description has been given by them to attract their audience.
