SEO Ranking Factors In 2019

Wow, 3 years have passed since I've wrote here. Been crazy business, a "good" thing. Every where I turn, I'm being asked how to recover my SEO rankings. Yeah, tricky. 2018 SEO updates were insane to say the least.

If your rankings have dropped, you're doing something wrong. Period. Change it up, only "you" know what you're doing.

Too many of you focus on the SEO versus focusing on your users, that's the big SEO secret. Let me give you an example.

If someone is searching for keyword A, what are they looking for? That's the key, understanding why someone is looking for that particular keyword. What type of content would suffice that search query?

Content and backlinks are always important, but user metrics matter. Look at CTR, it's a major SEO ranking factor now. User engagement metrics are important.

Is your content worthy of the first page?

2019 SEO scoring has changed, but the core principles are always there. Think about your user versus a particular keyword.

*Content - A "true" first page worthy piece of content
*User - Content that accomplishes the goal of the user
*CTR - An interesting, click worthy description
*On-Site - Technical SEO superstar, one keyword, one page
*Backlinks - Authentic backlinks earned for high quality content

Local SEO For 2016

Local SEO In 2016

Hello all. Richard with Hale Associations here.

Today, we're talking about local SEO in 2016.

We saw a lot of changes last year with local SEO.

We saw Google decrease featured local rankings down to 3. So it's a lot
harder in 2016 to reach that featured milestone.

But does it matter?

Are you better off being in the first position after the Google 3 pack? Perhaps so.

A lot of content here, really useful to anyone using local search engine optimization.

SEO And Marketing Training By Hale Web Development

Richard Hale here, I'm the founder and CEO of Hale Web Development. Thanks for taking the time to visit us and for your interest in our SEO and Marketing Training. We have never offered any type of SEO or Marketing training outside house. I'm proud to announce that in 2016, we will be offering this training. So I wanted to give you a heads up.

SEO is always changing, we all know that. Google likes to stay above the curb if you know what I mean. What worked at this time a year ago may not work as well today. It may not work good at all. SEO is always evolving and the importance of staying on top of Google's changes is crucial.

I've been asked a hundred times, "do you offer training to SEOs, Marketers, small business owners?" I had always replied no. But due to the interest and success of our company, I think it's a great time to start teaching others and you WILL be working directly with me.

Here's the problem and let me know if you agree, most SEO training is automated. You watch videos, you're told to do this and do that. However, you don't get the learning curve. There's no better training than hands-on training. That's why we're offering the Hale Web Development SEO and Marketing Training Course.

We're now accepting signups, all you have to do is email me directly at haleassociations@gmail.com

The SEO and Marketing training course is 30 days long, only $500. It doesn't matter what niche or market you're in, my SEO and Marketing training will work. Just like in SEO and Marketing, there's no one-and-done approach to it. Impossible. Every niche and market is going to be different. Every position you're in will be different than the next.

I promise you, you won't find another SEO and Marketing training course more effective, more unique and more affordable. By the end of the your 30 days, you'll know exactly what to do to get results. You'll be ready to make PROFITS.

Registration has begun and we only have 20 available positions. If you're serious about learning SEO and Marketing, do sign up. And I promise, I won't be teaching you what you read online every day. Most of what I teach you, you will have not heard about it because we're talking about strategies that work and strategy no one wants you to know. Period.

Best SEO Tools And Software

Today, I'm giving you access to our 10,000 word review on SEO Profiler. Why do we say that SEO Profiler is the best SEO tools and software on the market? Two main reasons, price point and features. For the price you pay for SEO Profiler, you can't beat this SEO software. I've tried them all, Moz, Raven's Tools, SEM Rush, Ahrefs. When it comes down to SEO analysis, keyword rankings and all the important SEO factors in between, I have yet to find anything else that compares.

Here you go : SEO Profiler Review

For all you SEOs out there, if you use Moz, you pay $99 for 3 domains? Maybe 5? With SEO Profiler, you can monitor 50 domains (with full features) for only $99 a month! Yes, no shit. No B.S.

Check out SEO Profiler now.

I'm a big fan. When you're first starting your SEO business, SEO services, it can be tough affording the right tools. Hale Web Development spends over $1,000 a month on SEO tools alone. SEO Profiler is just one that we use. Ahrefs is another we use for backlinks.

So having an affordable SEO software program is very important. In order to achieve the SEO results your clients expect, you need the right SEO tools. You can't go wrong with them, so be sure to check out our review and SEO Profiler for yourself.
