Understanding Search Intent & Content Silos

Search intent simply refers to a human’s intentions when performing a search. When a user searches in Google for “hot dog” did he mean a dog that is hot from the sun or did he really want results that pertained to the food? Understanding what the user expected to receive for a given search phrase is search intent.

A content silo (or SEO silo) is a method of grouping related content together to establish the website’s keyword-based topical areas or themes.

It is important to understand both search intent and content silos when performing keyword site mapping for SEO.

In this webinar, we’ll explore both topics and explain how they can help in your search engine optimization efforts.

On-Page SEO Techniques

On-page content optimization is an important part of website promotion and SEO. You have to go beyond content creation to truly garnish solid and long-term search traffic.

In this webinar, we’ll explore the key areas of focus for properly optimizing a website page, post or product for search engines.

Our presentation will cover keyword selection, titles, URLs, headings, content, images, meta-definition and hyperlinks.

Off–Site SEO Factors

Good SEO isn’t just about the website, it also spans outside of the website. It includes a variety of factors that cover areas that help search engines understand the quality, authority and trust of your website or blog.

Search engines have been trying for decades to find a way to return the best results for a given search phrase. To do that, they take into account the on-site SEO and off-page SEO factors. There are well over 200 in all, and while we won’t go into all 200, we want to make sure you understand the most important ones.

Off-page SEO factors are important because these data points give search engines a better indication of how the world perceives your website or blog. A website that is useful is more likely to have a number of external data points that are created by users outside of the website owner.

In this webinar, we’ll discuss the various types of off-page SEO factors and want you can do to improve your search ranking.

Mastering Local SEO

Local SEO refers to search engine activity related to a small geographical area like a state, county or city (here in the US). This is different than a national search that would take place at a country or international level.

While there are many areas of local SEO that mimic that of national SEO efforts, there are some nuances that need to be mastered to perform well for local search terms.

This webinar will review what website owners should and should not do when optimizing their website for local search. We’ll discuss the key factors for success and provide tools for optimizing your website presence at the local level.
