🥇 How to get to the top of Google by Tim Cameron-Kitchen
🥇 “Any attempt to increase the ranking of a website needs to begin with the website itself. The best links in the world can’t help an awful website, whereas a ruthlessly optimised site can take you a long way towards the ranking domination you might be aiming for.” How to get to the top of Google by Tim Cameron-Kitchen page 59
🥈 Favourite Chapter 3 - How to find and rank for the most profitable keywords
This chapter was very useful at breaking down the steps of how we could adapt our already up and running website to optimise our keywords. The website host/domain ‘godaddy’ had tools which we was able to incorporate strategies from this book.
🥉Keepsake and Conclusion
The challenge this book has is with the constant changes that happen in search engine optimisation and that the algorithms created by the big companies is so well hidden. Our keepsake was to create an action plan that over the year 2024 all the improvements will be made to our website and SEO approach.
