Nowadays google acts wired, crazy, nobody knows exactly what is going on with the google algo, except their friends big media sites.
Google punishes sites with too many FAQS too I wonder......google punishes sites who have too many internal backlinks ? (WTF)
What is going on today? The other side= Bing there you not see such crazy things.
OK, standard seo page here I mean high quality content sites. I search myself for high quality content examples to get an idea what that will looks like.
Seth Godin i shere the opposite, only uses short content and ranks well , I wonder does google not prefer long form content?
High quality content: example site byrdie , long form, with sections and at the bottom links to experts, or other niche authority sites
Printmag: they using the original images and videos from other sites (!) add their own content and add a quote from the origin source in their content. Stealing other people image and video 1:1 is allowed today ?
High quality; the article form Bloomberg:
bloomberg (com) /graphics/2015-whats-warming-the-world/, a short article behind a subscription wall, this article is short but got 8300 backlinks (?) How the hell they get 8300 backlinks for one short article ?
You see there are many ways of creating high quality content , often a lot of them are in the byrdie style, means long form with sections and linking out to other expert sites.
What I mean with this is, analyze big sites who are ranking well, their site structure, their url structure (goes deep) how they organize content and their writing style / format (like byrdie example).
My thoughts are; ok most of us can't hire expert to wrote for us like byrdie, but with a twist you can use their style in your site why go lower standard? Then when you write high quality content, at first people knowing what is it about, explain the solution, then like "read more"
write longer form and add out links to other expert sites. Site structure us a contenthub, use category pages, organize content, add your free webinar cta or newsletter sign up and you should be fine in google ranking.
Use schema markup for pages, for category pages , for single posts, or when you have news then use schema markup for news, learn about topics, (they are not only simple keywords)
When bigger sites stealing your content and they rank better, (ok they have more backlinks for seo rank) I bet, they have a better organized way to show content better as your site, thi sis why they outrank with your content.
Happy Monday ! Uffff, my body feels shattered today had bad sleep last night......
