Increase Online Traffic: Google Quality Standards

By Stephen On December 22, 2008 Under Increase On-line Traffic, Internet Marketing

Let’s cut to the chase ;-)


To download this video just click here.

The cheapest traffic available comes free from search engines, and it’s conservatively estimated that over 60% of searches are made through Google. Google likes to ‘own’ the web because it says: “Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”

You want to align yourself with the Google mission if you aim to have a high page rank on Google. Fortunately Google provides webmasters with heaps of resources to help you create successful websites, which will pull in a ton of traffic.

Does this mean that you should ignore other search engines, such as Yahoo, Ask, MSN, Altavista, Alltheweb, and those hundred or so others competing to deliver relevant traffic to surfers? No of course not, but if you follow the Google guidelines most likely you’ll improve your ratings in the other search engines too ~ certainly following Google guidelines does no harm

So what does Google have to say about how your website should be structured? How should you place the content and the links so that your site is accessible, and if you are providing quality information, is more accessible than other websites?

Simple, read the Google guidelines every week at least once and make sure that you structure your website as they advise.

So in order to create a quality standard for your website you really don’t need to do that much work because some very clever people at Google have already done the work for you. Nevertheless a simple checklist that highlights those Google requirements would be helpful to most webmasters so I’ve created one for you to download from here.

Google is cautious, if not off-putting, with respect to employing Search Engine Oprimization (SEO) specialists because some use ‘black hat’ methods to attempt to fool the Google algorithms and undermine the standards for quality and information sharing it upholds. Moreover, many SEO specialists charge for their time, rather than Google Real Time Traffic, that is the traffic gained as measured by Google Analytics.

Hi Stephen

Great recommendations about the search engine and the free method of improving traffic to site. I will certainly take a look at them and I’m glad that you talked about black hat marketing as some guys in the group are applying it e.g. blog roll links to profit pulling platform rather that blog site.

Anyway, keep up the great work

Nigel,

Don’t worry about those cheats who never prosper-long-term. Just work on your own site and stay with the good guys. I’m sure you’ll make progress.

Get ready from a visit from me to your domain.

Warm regards,

Stephen

Hello my friend!
I`m taking a round trip to everyones blog to say hello.

I just got my site up and running after some trouble with my hosting company. All I had on the site got deleted, so I had to build it all over from scratch… but thats life. We`re all set now :)

It will be a long and interesting brainstorming session today!

By the way, have you added me to your blogroll?

Hello Stephen,

I like your accent. And you are right. Build quality content above all, and they will come.

How’s your view on gray hat marketing then? :)

All the best!

Hi Erwin,

Anyone wearing ANYTHING but a white hat on my blog over at Gary-Land will get a visit from me via email pointing out the “offense” as I see it. Repeated attempts at skull-duggery and cheating will see me give them the Gazza-Slap. When they wake up they can have one more chance and then that is it. Black-hat or grey-hat me again and I will BLACK BAN them.

That’s my stance and I think it is generous.

As the late Yul Brynner said (on smoking): “Don’t do it! Just DON’T do it!” LOL!
