What makes for a great Google friendly website?

[charbel]

Would like to know the best things one could do to rank just off on page SEO, (of course alongside high quality links) for example rank higher than site X because you use this great plugin on Wordpress:

Please list all plugins and amount of content for each page, and appropriate page loading speed, it would be great if everyone knew the best recommended website layout when doing SEO.

I'd like to get as much information i can for my new website i would like to rank.

Thanks in advanced.

There's no magic generic formula as far as I know. Having the less possible errors will definitely help to not stay out of ranks. This is SEO-friendly articles checked with YoastSEO or similar, not copying content from others, having a proper mobile version, and making sure all runs fine in Google webmaster and Page Analyzer.

Google will definitely like it if you will write 1 million good quality and informative articles and do try to create backlinks to your site.

Definitely do not plan on doing that, attempted and failed.

You waited a grand total of 5 minutes before you decided to bump your thread. You do realise that all the information you need is literally two clicks away, and you couldn't even do that.

I hate to say this, but based on your level of patience, and inability to find information for yourself, I don't think IM is for you, and you should especially stay away from SEO.

Others are missing this out: make your site Adsense Compliant as much as possible. It will create a good impression on google's algo. Aside from that, follow guidelines set on webmaster tools.

Please note, you do not need to sign your site to webmaster tools.

Never forget responsive themes. People use smart phone to check the sites.

There's no such thing as "google friendly". I don't think it's also possible to rank without doing any SEO. Best bet would be to learn SEO/onsite/inter linking.

How anyone can improve Search Ranking without Search Engine Optimization?

I gree with arjona

Make your website responsive, since most people nowadays are browsing the web in their smartphones, tablets or other portable devices. You can start from there I guess.

Oh? You mean Google-friendly? I thought you said "mobile-friendly". Ugh... could you really be mates with Google....

First thing you need to have is plugin called Yoast SEO - I prefer this plugin. I was using the all in one, but not for me.
Try to keep every single circle in green color!
Do not use nulled themes... keep these rules in mind, and your seo will be better, than now is.
Regards.

Getting a high rank on google is really an arduous job, but certainly not impossible. Google loves websites with substantial and dandy content along with a good number of back links. SEO is a consistent process, so keep monitoring your efforts.
Yoast SEO is one of the popular plugin that helps in creating good content thereby increasing your traffic.
Some others include google XML sitemaps that help google to index your site in a better way.
Woocommerce plugin in case you want to build an online store. And there is a lengthy list to it about which you can get an easy and clear information on google As far as the length is considered it should start from minimum of 1500 words to 2000 and if you have more to add to it you can do that liberally, but make sure it makes sense. Loading speed should not exceed more than 2-3 seconds. Always keep in mind people lack time and patience. Following points should be kept in mind while designing the layout
* the headings should be in the form of H1 H2 format
* the content should have all the keywords appropriately used and and should have 2-3 % density
* use bullets wherever necessary
* use images wherever relevant as they lay a better impact but do not forget to attach alt tags for google optimization
* user friendly internal linking
* convenient navigation with static menu bars
* URL's should not be complicated and include keyword. Remember hyphens attach words. In case you want to separate them use slash or underscore.
* responsive design
* do integrate social media icons in the footer along with address
* do not commit the mistake of designing with Java script as google has to struggle a lot in indexing the site.
HOPE THIS WORKS FOR YOU.

Something like smush it for your images and something to speed up the pages is useful. Other than that I just try to focus on the content and not have too many plugins so that I can keep my load time low.

Site architecture, you can rank nicely just by pointing the pages the right way.

Also, not sure about the plugins, but a good WP host will help as well.

1. Give visitors the information they're looking for. Provide high-quality content on your pages, especially your homepage.
2. Make sure that other sites link to yours. Links help our crawlers find your site and can give your site greater visibility in our search results.
3. Make your site easily accessible.
4. Page Speed Is the atmost important
