What Are The Best Techniques For Keeping Visitors On Your Website in 2020
IN PLAIN TEXT:
LOAD TIME
Having pages that load quickly will help to improve SEO. To speed up load time, you can make sure your images aren’t too big. Try to keep images below 700kb. You can create small file sizes by saving images at 72PPI, which is the standard resolution for computer screens. You can also make sure the image is scaled to the right size before you upload it.
SOCIAL PROOF
Pick the social media sites that work best for your brand, then include their share buttons on your website.
Encourage clients, colleagues and friends to share your content on their social media platforms.
Make sure your site works well on a variety of devices, such as smart phones, iPads and laptops. Choose a responsive theme for your site.
SEO AND INTERNAL LINKS
Every page should be linked to at least one other page within your website. This is great for both Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and website navigation. It also helps search engines to develop relevance between those keywords and the pages they refer to.
Create a balance between clickable links, e.g. use generic anchor text, i.e. ‘click here’, your brand as the anchor text, i.e. ‘mywebsite.com’ and your targeted long-tail phrase keywords.
