What do you do? Do you get the phone book in action?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course not!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whatever you need, you Google it. You\u2019ll use a keyword (in this case, you\u2019ll focus on a particular location), and you\u2019ll check the results. First of all, you\u2019ll see several websites being listed in the results. Will you dig deep and go through several pages? No; you\u2019ll probably focus on the first page. In fact, people rarely go beyond the first three results on the list. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smartinsights.com\/search-engine-optimisation-seo\/seo-analytics\/comparison-of-google-clickthrough-rates-by-position\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">comparison of Google click-through rates by position<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> shows that the first position gets over 30% of clicks. The rate rapidly falls to 10% for the result in the third position. In the lower positions (9 and 10), however, the clickthrough rate is only 2%. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So when you approach Google from the position of a customer, you want to get the best and you assume that Google gives you the best. We all trust Google, simply because the search engine is great at delivering the information we need. If any results from Yelp or Amazon show up, we\u2019ll check those, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>It\u2019s All about Keywords<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It all comes down to a simple conclusion: the ranking is extremely important. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you approach Google from the position of a business, you care about those rankings. You want more people on your website. And you\u2019ll achieve that through a search engine optimization strategy. You\u2019ll choose specific keywords and you\u2019ll make great efforts to rank high when people search for those keywords.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-267669.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-10662\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-267669.jpeg?resize=640%2C325&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-267669.jpeg?w=710&amp;ssl=1 710w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-267669.jpeg?resize=300%2C152&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might even consider hiring <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conversion-uplift.co.uk\/seo-the-biggest-scam-on-the-internet\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SEO services<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but in most cases, marketing experts and business owners are fully engaged in the process. Being engaged means you\u2019re constantly getting updated on the trends. Keyword rankings are not a definite category. They change under the influence of the campaigns of other brands, but also due to Google algorithm changes. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>So What\u2019s New about Keyword Rankings?<\/h2>\n<h3>1. It\u2019s the Age of Semantic Search<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the beginning of online searches, people were focused on keywords. If they were looking for a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cheap essay writing service in the UK<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">professional essay writers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/australianwritings.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/australianwritings.net\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1547862941098000&amp;usg=AFQjCNE9uEHhSypcv7r2t0ulnKZTUtmsjQ\">paper writing service in Australia<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.a-writer.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hire a writer<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for example, that\u2019s exactly what they would type in Google: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cheap essay writing service in UK <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">or<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> professional essay writers, hire a writer, <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">or<\/span> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">custom essay papers<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, etc<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. They would come across keyword-rich content that not always delivered the solutions they need. But Google made fast progress. The search engine focused on delivering high-quality content, and that\u2019s exactly why the phrase \u201ccontent is king\u201d became the fundamental principle of SEO.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the Hummingbird algorithm update from 2013, we saw the rise of semantic search. It wasn\u2019t a temporary trend; it was the direction in which Google intended to grow. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What did this mean for content developers?<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They couldn\u2019t just stuff content with keywords and hope to rank. They had to deliver meaningful content. Google would no longer rank the writing service that contained the highest number of keywords at its website; it would rank the best website in terms of content quality.<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This doesn\u2019t mean that keywords became obsolete. They are still important. Since Hummingbird, however, they must fit into the meaning. Not content, but context is king!<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Since Hummingbird, Google started taking not just the keywords, but the entire query into account. It considers factors such as the user\u2019s search history, patterns, and more. In addition, it pays attention to location, time, and device type.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>2.\u00a0Technical SEO Still Matters<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though, you cannot guess someone\u2019s search history and usage patterns so that you could affect the results. You can only keep doing what you\u2019ve been doing: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">use keywords<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but you have to give them a lot of meaning.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-908284.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-10663\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-908284.jpeg?resize=640%2C325&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-908284.jpeg?w=710&amp;ssl=1 710w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-908284.jpeg?resize=300%2C152&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technical SEO, however, is still very important. <\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The structure of your website is a huge factor. It should be neatly organized in sections, so the crawler will quickly find content and will figure out how the content at your website is connected. The most effective way to achieve such a result is to put schema markup on your website. \u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The meta title and descriptions are among the first things the search engine crawls on your pages. So if you write clear and focused meta tags that contain keywords, you help Google to identify the context of your pages. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>3. User Intent Is a Huge Thing<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we said, Google is not only focused on the keywords typed in the search bar when delivering results. It wants to identify the intention of the user. Are they looking for solutions, information, or services\/products? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you develop your content, you should be optimizing for user intent. Writing services, for example, will optimize for the user\u2019s intent to buy papers or get writing tips. Google will recognize such intent and will deliver pages that meet it. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Checking Keyword Rankings &#8211; Should You Even Do That?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Needless to say, you\u2019re not ranking for the sake of ranking. You\u2019re trying to rank for the sake of getting visitors, leads, and conversions. So why should you even bother about the way your content ranks? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shouldn\u2019t you just focus on measuring leads and conversions?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well\u2026 no. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although focusing on leads and conversions would be the logical thing to do, marketing experts still <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conversion-uplift.co.uk\/how-to-do-keyword-research-tools\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">conduct keyword research<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and develop SEO strategies. Do you know why? &#8211; Because it matters. How are you going to get those leads and conversions if you don\u2019t rank well on Google? Now that\u2019s what true logic is about. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s just a reminder: the first result still gets over 30% of the clicks. The ones at the bottom of the first page get only 2% of the traffic. The remaining pages? Who cares about them, anyway? People don\u2019t have time to click through dozens of pages just to get the information they need. They want it right away, and Google is very effective at delivering it from the very first attempt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-270637.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-10664\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-270637.jpeg?resize=640%2C325&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-270637.jpeg?w=710&amp;ssl=1 710w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.rankwatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/pexels-photo-270637.jpeg?resize=300%2C152&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how do you check these rankings after being really focused on SEO?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s simple: you just use a tool for that. There are paid and free tools you could use. However, keep in mind that if you want the tool to show you real results and detail about your ranking, you\u2019ll probably end up with paid software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want some suggestions from me? I&#8217;d suggest you this one: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rankwatch.com\/\"><b>RankWatch <\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RankWatch is a cloud-based Internet Marketing Platform, which has Artificial Intelligence of its own.

The importance of keywords, however, remains valid. Yes; we\u2019re changing the way we use them. Keywords have to be included in high-quality content. Most of all, you\u2019re focused on meaning because that\u2019s what the search engines are after. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The important thing to keep in mind is that keywords are still important.
