How To Increase Website Traffic After The Google Update: 5 Blogger-Tested Tips via @sejournal, @getStay22

This post was sponsored by Stay22. The opinions expressed in this article are the sponsor’s own.

The latest Google update hit our partners – travel bloggers – hard. Despite the challenges presented by this update, we are amazed by their resilience.

Although we cannot influence Google, we can definitely take charge of the things within our reach.

Here are five travel blogger-tested ways to increase website traffic after the latest Google update.

Get the most out of each visitor. Check out our guide, Ten Tips for Maximizing Revenue for Travel Bloggers.

1. Use Pinterest As An Additional Search Engine

Many people think of Pinterest as a social media platform, but it functions much more as a search engine.

Pinterest’s tools make it a fantastic way to get visitors to your website.

How To Get Started With Pinterest

  1. Create a new business account or link/convert a personal account to gain access to business tools like Pinterest Business Hub and Pinterest Analytics, which allow you to monitor searches and keywords.
  2. Write a catchy bio for your profile. If you have niche keywords you use on your website, include them here.
  3. Claim your website, allowing you to track whenever someone shares your website content on Pinterest. Additionally, it will automatically include your Pinterest profile and a follow button so you can attract more visitors.

How To Use Pinterest Like A Pro

Pinterest is built around pictures, so having great visuals is critical. You want to make yours stand out on the page.

  1. When you travel, snap many pictures and pick the best ones later.
  2. Use design tools like Canva to add text, create interesting layouts, and add branding elements.
  3. Create boards to organize your content into categories, such as by destination or blog post type.
  4. Just like any other search engine, keyword research is necessary on Pinterest. Use business tools like Pinterest Trends, which lets you see keyword search volume and which pins are most popular for them.
  5. Use your selected keywords everywhere possible, including pin titles, pin descriptions, and board descriptions.

Before you start pinning, optimize your blog posts to maximize revenue to ensure every visitor counts. See how to do that in our guide Ten Tips for Maximizing Revenue for Travel Bloggers.

2. Keep Visitors Engaged With Email Marketing

Email marketing is important because you own it. Instagram could ban your account, Google can derank you, but your email list is always yours.

Use this strategy to build less volatile, consistent traffic instead of new traffic.

How To Get Started With Email Marketing

  1. Select an email marketing provider. Travel bloggers love MailerLite and MailChimp because they are low-cost and simple.
  2. Start collecting email addresses. Create a mailing list signup form with your website host and insert it at the end of posts to collect your readers’ information.

How To Use Email Marketing Like A Pro

  1. Create a lead magnet that entices readers to share their information in exchange for it. Popular lead magnets in the travel blogging community are travel guides, ebooks, and itineraries.
  2. The goal of email is to get your reader onto your site. Keep your emails short and include impressive pictures and a clear link to your website. Leave them wanting more so that they click through.
  3. Before sending an email directing traffic to one of your pages, ensure the page is set up to maximize revenue. See how in our guide, Ten Tips for Maximizing Revenue for Travel Bloggers.

“While SEO is often touted as the king of traffic, good email marketing is the absolute queen. We regularly see spikes in our web analytics when we email our audience, but those spikes aren’t just temporary. They help our users build habits. We simply wouldn’t have nearly the business we have today without activating our email list.”

Beth Stanos, Wanderful CEO & Founder

    3. Add Your Content To Flipboard To Grab More Website Visits

    Flipboard is an article curation website that lets users flip through articles from different publications, like magazines.

    How To Get Started With Flipboard

    1. Download the Flipboard app on mobile and create an account and profile.
    2. Create Flipboard magazines. These are topic categories that group your content (much like Pinterest boards).
    3. Add your blog posts to them from the magazine page on Flipboard or the Flipit Chrome bookmark.
    Screenshot taken from Flipboard, June 2024

    How To Use Flipboard Like A Pro

    1. Add your fresh blog posts to Flipboard right after publishing.
    2. Add relevant content to your magazines that isn’t your own. Engaging with other bloggers’ content and maintaining new content in your magazines helps your reach.
    3. Include your target keywords in your magazine descriptions, post captions, and profile.

    “Flipboard has become a major traffic source for all 3 of my websites. They have fantastic tools for creators, like storyboards, scheduling, and RSS feeds for magazines, making creating and sharing compelling content easy.”

    Amanda O’Brien, theboutiqueadventurer.com Founder

    4. Get Discovered With Short-Form Videos On Social Media

    Did you know 77% of travelers use social media when planning their trips? Get their eyes on your content with short-form videos on platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube shorts.

    These platforms have algorithms to serve your content to people who don’t follow you, making them ideal for readers to discover you.

    How To Get Started Making Videos

    1. Create your accounts on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok.
    2. Download Capcut, a free mobile app for video editing. It’s better than the in-app editing functionality, with pre-installed templates and effects.
    3. Create a Linktree account or an alternative. All three platforms make it difficult for users to leave and visit your site, so a place where users can go for all your links is necessary.
    “PLACES ON EARTH WITH THE BLUEST WATER” by @thetravelshack, June 2024

    How To Make Short Video Content Like A Pro

    1. While traveling, keep video creation in the back of your mind. When you see eye-catching scenery or an interesting environment, be ready to capture it in video. Your video’s “wow” factor differentiates between a mediocre and a fantastic video.
    2. On Instagram, write detailed captions. On YouTube and TikTok, keep captions as brief as possible.
    3. Voice-over, on-screen text, and music are crucial to your engagement rate. You can add these with Capcut or in-app.
    4. Pick your video thumbnails carefully. Make sure they stand out in a grid of other videos.
    5. Finally, keep your short video short. The ideal length for a Reel is seven to eleven seconds, a TikTok 21 to 34 seconds, and a YouTube Short 25 to 35 seconds.

    “TikTok helped us to get our second blog on Mediavine. We shared detailed videos about “how to do something” and always included a call to action, directing viewers to our blog for more information. In recent years, we’ve had videos go viral while encouraging followers to visit the link in our bio. This has resulted in thousands of clicks to our websites.”

    Natasha Alden, theworldpursuit.com Co-Founder

    5. Expose Yourself To New Audiences With Guest Posting

    Having your writing published on another website gives you access to a whole new audience, making it an excellent strategy for attracting new readers.

    How To Start Guest Posting

    1. Find places that accept guest posts. Many publications have open submissions that you can submit to.
    2. If you see a site that has guest posts but no open submissions, find their contact information and send an inquiry email.
    3. Create a pitch by explaining your travel expertise and provide writing samples.

    How To Guest Post Like A Pro

    1. When creating your pitch, understand the site’s needs. What content gaps do they have? Focus your pitch there.
    2. Organic guest posting opportunities arise if you take the time to network. Meeting and developing friendships with travel bloggers is a great way to share audiences. You can network on social media, as well as in-person events like TBEX, TravelCon, and Traverse.
    3. Create a clear link back to your blog and include a catchy description so readers will be enticed to read more of your content.
    4. Strategize by monitoring the traffic of potential sites with tools like SEMRush and pick the best option.
    Screenshot from japan.travel, June 2024

    “Creating content for another publication to share as a standalone article allows you to share new expertise about a certain area. Whether through the article itself or subsequent social shares, a new audience gets exposure to you as a writer.”

    How To Find Competitors’ Keywords: Tips & Tools

    This post was sponsored by SE Ranking. The opinions expressed in this article are the sponsor’s own.

    Wondering why your competitors rank higher than you?

    The secret to your competitors’ SEO success might be as simple as targeting the appropriate keywords.

    Since these keywords are successful for your competitors, there’s a good chance they could be valuable for you as well.

    In this article, we’ll explore the most effective yet simple ways to find competitors’ keywords so that you can guide your own SEO strategy and potentially outperform your competitors in SERPs.

    Benefits Of Competitor Keyword Analysis

    Competitor keywords are the search terms your competitors target within their content to rank high in SERPs, either organically or through paid ads.

    Collecting search terms that your competitors rely on can help you:

    1. Identify & Close Keyword Gaps.

    The list of high-ranking keywords driving traffic to your competitors may include valuable search terms you’re currently missing out on.

    To close these keyword gaps, you can either optimize your existing content with these keywords or use them as inspiration for creating new content with high traffic potential.

    2. Adapt To Market Trends & Customer Needs.

    You may notice a shift in the keywords your competitors optimize content for. This could be a sign that market trends or customer expectations are changing.

    Keep track of these keywords to jump on emerging trends and align your content strategy accordingly.

    3. Enhance Visibility & Rankings.

    Analyzing your competitors’ high-ranking keywords and pages can help you identify their winning patterns (e.g., content format, user intent focus, update frequency, etc).

    Study what works for your rivals (and why) to learn how to adapt these tactics to your website and achieve higher SERP positions.

    How To Identify Your Competitors’ Keywords

    There are many ways to find keywords used by competitors within their content. Let’s weigh the pros and cons of the most popular options.

    Use SE Ranking

    SE Ranking is a complete toolkit that delivers unique data insights. These insights help SEO pros build and maintain successful SEO campaigns.

    Here’s the list of pros that the platform offers for agency and in-house SEO professionals:

    1. Huge databases. SE Ranking has one of the web’s largest keyword databases. It features over 5 billion keywords across 188 regions. Also, the number of keywords in their database is constantly growing, with a 30% increase in 2024 compared to the previous year.
    2. Reliable data. SE Ranking collects keyword data, analyzes it, and computes core SEO metrics directly from its proprietary algorithm. The platform also relies on AI-powered traffic estimations that have up to a 100% match with GSC data.

    Thanks to SE Ranking’s recent major data quality update, the platform boasts even fresher and more accurate information on backlinks and referring domains (both new and lost).

    As a result, by considering the website’s backlink profile, authority, and SERP competitiveness, SE Ranking now makes highly accurate calculations of keyword difficulty. This makes it easy to see how likely your own website or page is to rank at the top of the SERPs for a particular query.

    1. Broad feature set. Beyond conducting competitive (& keyword) research, you can also use this tool to track keyword rankings, perform website audits, handle all aspects of on-page optimization, manage local SEO campaigns, optimize your content for search, and much more.
    2. Great value for money. The tool offers premium features with generous data limits at a fair price. This eliminates the need to choose between functionality and affordability.

    Let’s now review how to use SE Ranking to discover the keywords your competitors are targeting for both organic search and paid advertising.

    First, open the Competitive Research Tool and input your competitor’s domain name into the search bar. Select a region and click Analyze to initiate analysis of this website.

    Image created by SE Ranking, May 2024

    Depending on your goal, go either to the Organic Traffic Research or Paid Traffic Research tab on the left-hand navigation menu.

    Here, you’ll be able to see data on estimated organic clicks, total number of keywords, traffic cost, and backlinks.

    Image created by SE Ranking, May 2024

    Upon scrolling this page down, you’ll see a table with all the keywords the website ranks for, along with data on search volume, keyword difficulty, user intent, SERP features triggered by keywords, ranking position, URLs ranking for the analyzed keyword, and more.

    Image created by SE Ranking, May 2024

    What’s more, the tool allows you to find keywords your competitors rank for but you don’t.

    To do this, head to the Competitor Comparison tab and add up to two websites for comparison.

    Image created by SE Ranking, May 2024

    Within the Missing tab, you’ll be able to see existing keyword gaps.

    Image created by SE Ranking, May 2024

    While the platform offers many benefits, there are also some downsides to be aware of, such as:

    1. Higher-priced plans are required for some features. For instance, historical data on keywords is only available to Pro and Business plan users.
    2. Data is limited to Google only. SE Ranking’s Competitor Research Tool only provides data for Google.

    Use Google Keyword Planner

    Google Keyword Planner is a free Google service, which you can use to find competitors’ paid keywords.

    Here’s the list of benefits this tool offers in terms of competitive keyword analysis:

    1. Free access. Keyword Planner is completely free to use, which makes it a great option for SEO newbies and businesses with limited budgets.
    2. Core keyword data. The tool shows core SEO metrics like search volume, competition, and suggested bid prices for each identified keyword.
    3. Keyword categorization. Keyword Planner allows you to organize keywords into different groups, which may be helpful for creating targeted ad campaigns.
    4. Historical data. The tool has four years of historical data available.

    Once you log into your  Google Ads account, navigate to the Tools section and select Keyword Planner.

    Screenshot from Google Ads, May 2024

    Now, click on the Discover new keywords option.

    Screenshot from Google Ads, May 2024

    Choose Start with a website option, enter your competitor’s website domain, region, and language, then choose to analyze the whole site (recommended for deeper insights) or a specific URL.

    Screenshot from Google Ads, May 2024

    And there you have it — a table with all keywords that your analyzed website uses in its Google Ads campaigns.

    Screenshot from Google Ads, May 2024

    Although Keyword Planner can be helpful, it’s not the most effective and data-rich tool for finding competitors’ keywords. Its main drawbacks are the following:

    1. No organic data. The tool offers data on paid keywords, which is mainly suitable for advertising campaigns.
    2. Broad search volume data. Since it’s displayed in ranges rather than exact numbers, it might be difficult to precisely assess the demand for identified keywords.
    3. No keyword gap feature. Using this tool, you cannot compare your and your competitors’ keywords side-by-side and, therefore, find missing keyword options.

    So, if you want to access more reliable and in-depth data on competitors’ keywords, you’ll most likely need to consider other dedicated SEO tools.

    Use SpyFu

    SpyFu is a comprehensive SEO and PPC analysis tool created with the idea of “spying” on competitors.

    Its main pros in terms of competitor keyword analysis are the following:

    1. Database with 10+ years of historical data. Although available only in a Professional plan, SpyFu offers long-term insights to monitor industry trends and adapt accordingly.
    2. Keyword gap analysis. Using this tool, you can easily compare your keywords to those of your competitors using metrics like search volume, keyword difficulty, organic clicks, etc.
    3. Affordability. It’s suitable for businesses on a tight budget.

    To explore competitor data, simply visit their website and enter your competitor’s domain in the search bar.

    You’ll be presented with valuable insights into their SEO performance, from estimated traffic to the list of their top-performing pages and keywords. Navigate to the Top Keywords section and click the View All Organic Keywords button to see the search terms they rank for.

    Screenshot of SpyFu, May 2024

    Yet, this free version provides an overview of just the top 5 keywords for a domain along with metrics like search volume, rank change, SEO clicks, and so on. To perform a more comprehensive analysis, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid plan.

    When it comes to the tool’s cons, it would be worth mentioning:

    1. Keyword data may be outdated. On average, SpyFu updates data on keyword rankings once a month.
    2. Limited number of target regions. Keyword data is available for just 14 countries.

    Wrapping Up

    There’s no doubt that finding competitors’ keywords is a great way to optimize your own content strategy and outperform your rivals in SERPs.

    By following the step-by-step instructions described in this article, we’re sure you’ll be able to find high-value keywords you haven’t considered before.

    Ready to start optimizing your website? Sign up for SE Ranking and get the data you need to deliver great user experiences.

    Google Universal Analytics 360 Sunsetting Soon: Migration Tips & Top Alternative Inside via @sejournal, @PiwikPro

    This post was sponsored by Piwik PRO. The opinions expressed in this article are the sponsor’s own.

    This year, Google will finally phase out Universal Analytics 360, requiring paid users to switch to Google Analytics 360.

    This is not something you can skip or postpone, and the clock is ticking.

    The new analytics differ significantly from the previous version, and you can’t migrate data between them, so the transition can be challenging for organizations.

    Since you’ll be starting from scratch, now is a good time to explore other options and determine if there are better solutions for your needs.

    The three main areas to consider when deciding if you want to stay with Google or move to another platform are: the migration process, privacy and compliance, and ease of use.

    When Is Google Universal Analytics 360 Sunsetting?

    July 1, 2024 is when Google will phase out Universal Analytics 360.

    What Should I Do Next?

    Google encourages you to migrate to Google Analytics 360 as quickly as possible.

    If you don’t, you could:

    • Lose critical advertising capabilities.
    • Lose the ability to export historical data.
    • Face delays in setting up Google Analytics 360.

      How To Migrate To Your Next Analytics Platform

      Moving to a new platform is much more than just implementation; it is vital to plan your migration properly. Below are five steps to help you through the entire process.

      Step 1. Evaluate Your Stack & Resources

      Before you switch analytics tools, take the time to evaluate your entire stack, not just the tool you’re changing. Ensure that your stack is up-to-date and meets your current business needs. Migrating to a new analytics vendor almost always requires more people and more time than originally estimated. It’s a good occasion to remove redundant tools from your stack; it might also allow you to integrate with new ones that can help you run your analytics and collect data more comprehensively.

      Step 2. Tidy Your Data

      Over time, data collection may get messy, and you find yourself tracking data that isn’t relevant to your business. A migration gives you a chance to clean up your data taxonomy. Ensure that your new tool allows you to use the same categories of data as the previous one. Pay close attention to any data that needs to be collected automatically, like location data (country, region, city), and device details (device type, browser). Finally, make sure the SDKs you need are supported by your new tool.

      Step 3. Implement A New Platform

      This step involves setting up the tracking code that collects data about visitors to your website or app and making any necessary modifications. Remember to set up tags to gather more detailed data through events or connect third-party tools.

      Speed Up The Transition: If you switch to Piwik PRO, you can use a migration tool to easily transfer your settings from Universal Analytics (GA3) and Google Tag Manager.

      Step 4. Evaluate Tour New Data

      Once you’re done implementing your new platform, you should run it parallel to your existing tool for a few months before finalizing the migration. During this time, you can audit your new data and correct any errors. In this manner, you can retain your historical data while simultaneously generating new data segments on the new platform.

      Step 5. Provide Training For Your Team

      All end users need training to comprehend the platform’s operations, retrieve necessary data, and generate reports. This step is frequently missed as it falls at the end of the project.

      Upon finishing this step, you will be set to switch to your new platform fully. If you find the migration process challenging, consider getting help from outside sources. Some analytics vendors offer hands-on onboarding and user training, which accelerates product adoption.

      Is Switching To Google Analytics 360 Worth The Hassle?

      You might be thinking, “Migrating to the successor of UA 360 won’t be a walk in the park,” especially if you work for a large organization.

      In addition to subscription and data migration costs, you may also need to train your staff or increase fees for external marketing agencies that will face new challenges.

      While Analytics 360 has incredible use cases, there may be other tools that better suit your needs.

      Switching to alternative solutions may be a good option for you.

      How To Pick A Replacement For Universal Analytics 360

      To decide whether to choose a new platform or stick with Google, consider a few important factors:

      1. Because GA 360 is a different software, your marketing and analytics departments will need to allocate extra resources to learn the new platform. You will also need the support of analysts, developers, and data architects to help you reconstruct reports based on the data architecture of the chosen platform. Choosing a solution with similar features and user experience to UA 360 can be a good option, because it saves resources, making onboarding faster and easier.
      2. You will also need to redesign your entire customer journey, because the data model in GA360 has changed from sessions to events. This process can be more challenging and costly than choosing a session-based platform or one that offers you freedom of choice.
      3. Another important consideration is the level of support offered by the vendor. This can greatly affect the quality of the migration and onboarding to a new platform. Although Google Analytics is currently the most popular tool for analyzing web traffic, the level of support it provides is limited. Other companies like Piwik PRO can offer more in this area, including personalized onboarding, product implementation, training, and dedicated customer support at every step.

      Consideration 1: Think About Privacy & Compliance

      Organizations around the world are increasingly concerned with data privacy and compliance. A 2023 Thomson survey found that 80% of business professionals acknowledge the importance of compliance as a crucial advisory function for their organizations. Gartner, on the other hand, predicts that, by 2025, 60% of large enterprises will use at least one privacy-enhancing computing (PEC) technique in analytics, business intelligence, and/or cloud computing.

      This is due to a growing number of new regulations that place greater control over personal data at the forefront. The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) are two of the most prominent examples. The landscape has been further complicated by events such as the Schrems II case, Brexit, and China’s Personal Data Protection Law. Data protection is also increasingly important in some sectors, such as healthcare, where regulations like HIPAA are mandatory.

      If your company operates globally or has ambitions to do so, the first thing to consider is who has full ownership of the data, where the servers hosting the data are located, and who owns them. Google Analytics 360 only offers cloud deployment in an unknown location, which means that data might be transferred between data centers in the Americas, Europe, and Asia. This makes it difficult to know exactly where the data is stored and ownership is unclear. For now, the issue of data transfers between the US and the EU has been resolved by the EU-US Privacy Shield framework agreement, but the future stays unclear. Last year, NOYB, led by Max Schrems, announced that it would soon appeal this decision to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).

      To meet privacy and compliance requirements in different countries and industries, choose a platform that allows you to customize your hosting plan and set specific parameters for data collection and analysis. Platforms like Piwik PRO Analytics Suite enable you to store your data on servers in Europe, the US, and Asia, based on your preferences. This translates into flexibility and security of your data.

      Consideration 2: Ease Of Use & Integration

      This may sound counterintuitive, but the new GA 360 might be too complex for many. While it offers numerous advanced functions for data analysts, it lacks features specifically designed for marketers. As a result, marketers may need help in configuring the system to efficiently use the data.

      On the other hand, in GA 360, the data model shifts from session-based to event-based. This is especially important if your teams depend on UA 360 behavioral reporting, benchmarking, and e-commerce flow reports, as these features are unavailable in the new release. You also need to revise all the reports for all the stakeholders.

      Conversely, Piwik PRO strongly emphasizes simplicity and enables marketers to quickly access the necessary data. Additionally, the data model combines both session-based and event-based structures. This approach ensures that you can start working with the data faster and deliver the reports that stakeholders are used to. Another big advantage of Piwik PRO is its model for working with raw data, which is a valuable source of knowledge about users and provides richer reporting in more contexts. Google Analytics does not provide raw data exports, so you have to use various services and tools to accomplish this. To be fair, however, exporting large raw data packets with Piwik PRO software may take longer than with Google solutions.

      The new GA 360 is most effective when used mainly with products from the Google ecosystem. When considering data activation, Google Ads is the most suitable option. When it comes to Piwik PRO, you still have this option, but integrating with other solutions is much easier. The platform offers four modules: Analytics, Tag Manager, Consent Manager and Customer Data Platform (CDP). The CDP module, available in the paid plan, lets you create detailed customer profiles and categorize your data into various audience segments. You can activate them to provide a personalized experience and run effective campaigns across multiple channels.

      The landscape of modern analytics is constantly changing. On the one hand, there are ongoing discussions about privacy and compliance regulations, while on the other, companies are trying out various methods to collect and analyze data. In the end, your choice of analytics platform will impact the performance of your marketing and sales efforts. So take the time to explore, and you may find other solutions that better suit your organization’s needs.

      Piwik PRO is a solid choice to explore for your next primary analytics solution. Book a personalized demo of the Enterprise version and see the benefits of introducing Piwik PRO Analytics Suite in your organization.

      Here’s What SEO Experts Have To Say About Leveraging SGE In 2024 via @sejournal, @fiverr

      Google Search Generative Experience (SGE) has come a long way since its experimental launch in May 2023.

      Starting out by simply generating paraphrased snippets for search engine queries, SGE now offers more comprehensive summaries and source links.

      Essentially, Google’s SGE is an interactive generative AI-powered feature that uses existing results to answer search queries.

      Think of it as a chatbot — but Google’s organic search results power it.

      Every indexed webpage that crosses a search engine results page (SERP) helps teach SGE what it knows.

      As exciting (and partly terrifying) as the feature is, you may be trying to understand its true potential to leverage it for your businesses.

      How Does Google SGE Work?

      SGE offers comprehensive answers to search queries, just like Open AI’s ChatGPT, but SGE cites sources.

      To see SGE in action:

      1. Navigate to Google to begin a search.
      2. Enter a search query or question into the search bar.
      3. Watch as multiple search results are written as a conversational response to your question.

      Context and more information are added to your result through SGE, especially when compared to the old featured snippets, which only displayed a snippet or sentence without its full context.

      Screenshot from Google for [conversational analytics] using normal search and SGE, February 2024

      As you can see, pre-SGE days allowed you to sift through multiple websites, giving each result traffic to their respective webpages.

      Now, SGE takes up the space where direct webpage results used to display, meaning that many websites may no longer get the traffic they used to get.

      How Will SGE Change How Google Search Works?

      As you can imagine, many SEO experts believe SGE will eat into organic traffic from top-of-funnel queries.

      There are three key reasons for a potential drop in organic traffic from SERPs:

      • Featured snippets only offer one clickable source, while SGE offers many. If you owned the top position, you may now be sharing clicks with multiple sources.
      • SGE takes up too much space on the SERPs, pushing the traditional SERP below the fold, resulting in fewer clicks.
      • You can ask follow-up questions right, which keeps searchers on the SERP instead of traveling to a site for more information.

      That said, there is still potential for pages to get traffic as long as the content answers the query.

      SGE Sites Pages That Are Not In The Top 10

      There have been many instances where SGE cites pages that don’t rank in the top 10 results — indicating that the data is pooled from a larger sample.

      However, you should adapt your strategy as SGE emerges from its experimental phase.

      A recent study found that 49% of consumers are interested in AI-powered searches, indicating that AI-generated SERPs are perceived positively.

      If Google wants to stay competitive, especially with Bing Search’s hard comeback last year, SGE will eventually be a permanent part of the SERPs.

      What SEO Experts Have To Say About SGE’s Impact On Digital Marketing

      Many businesses, like yours, rely on Google for their revenue. Whether that’s in the form of ads or organic results, SGE is set to disrupt both of these formats.

      How SGE Impacts Organic Traffic

      On the organic side, achieving the top 3 positions could lead to lackluster results.

      How SGE Impacts PPC

      On the advertising end, you might be safe, as Sponsored results appear above SGE.

      However, that only pushes organic results even further down.

      Screenshot from Google for [monday competitors], February 2024

      Some experts believe SGE to be like Featured Snippets but on steroids. Ihor Rudnyk, CEO of Collaborator, explains:

      We saw sites that gave simple and fast answers lost some of their traffic. That’s because users receive these answers directly in the SERPs. For example, weather prediction, currency rates, short facts, etc.

      Businesses focused on short, easy answers and fast information are in the worst position. I don’t see how you can change it without creating additional value for users. However, it’s easy to predict that the importance of brand awareness and direct traffic will continue to grow.

      Additionally, there will be a larger focus on creating pages with depth. It could be in the form of original data, a differentiated view or commentary on trends.

      SEO professionals will start to become more quality-focused, and quality will be defined as bringing something new, original or interesting to the debate in contrast to what it is defined as now — being ‘comprehensive’ (code for boringly covering the same stuff the next guy does).

      — Patrick Herbert, Director at Singularity Digital

      What Can You Do To Leverage SGE For Your Business?

      So, how can you prepare to stay relevant on the SERPs as SGE will soon dominate?

      Here are a few tips to get you started:

      1. Move From Informational To Transactional Content

      SGE is the biggest threat to informational content — especially concise content.

      Businesses that create thin content optimized for search will suffer. Creating more transactional pages could help you avoid this issue.

      Transactional content is more nuanced and requires extensive research, so users will be more likely to dig deeper into product/service websites.

      Not only that, but it also allows you to appear in SGE for high-intent search terms, which is the goal for businesses.

      Screenshot from Google for [best accounting software], February 2024

      2. Monitor Changes In Search Intent Over A Period

      Many marketers will soon shift their reliance on traditional keyword metrics like keyword density (KD) and search volume to search intent.

      Even with high KD and search volume, ranking for these keywords can be difficult. So, with SGE, it doesn’t make sense to go after such queries unless you’re prepared to write ultimate in-depth guides.

      This is why you need to look at search intent first.

      Ask yourself:

      • Does the topic make sense?
      • Can I realistically rank for this topic or at least get credited by SGE?

      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical Expertise via @sejournal, @Brian_W_Gareth

      Step 1: Demonstrate Each Element Of E-E-A-T

      First things first: how do you assert yourself as an authority on your chosen topic?

      If you are familiar with the concept of E-E-A-T, you won’t be surprised that it’s closely tied to topical authority. Working on one is the same as working on the other. And E-E-A-T makes it very easy to understand what exactly you need to do.

      What does E-E-A-T mean, and how do you demonstrate it?

      1. Experience: what you have personally dealt with as a person and a professional, and what you can share with your audience. Example: a detailed product review where you describe how you have used it.
      1. Expertise: a high level of skill and knowledge in your field. Example: a Knowledge Panel with an expert’s name, photo, credentials and contact information.
      1. Authoritativeness: earning the title of an expert by creating content and gaining rankings and backlinks over a long time. Example: being referred to as a credible source of information by another website.
      1. Trustworthiness: having a good reputation in the eyes of your target audience. Example: positive user reviews.

      Each of these elements signals to Google that your website is run by a real pro who knows what the users want. This is your end goal in very simple terms; now it’s time for details.

      Step 2: Stick To A Single Niche

      Can you dedicate your site to multiple niches?

      Sure. But as the saying goes, the person who chases two rabbits catches neither.

      If your chosen niches are not closely related, then Google will not view you as a specialist. But if they are closely related, then it’s very much possible.

      For example, TripAdvisor is a very well-known authority on all things related to travel: destinations, HoReCa, popular activities, and more.

      If you want to be acknowledged as an expert, the best bet is to pick a single niche – and commit to it fully. But if you are feeling ambitious, then pick several related topics and start pumping out content like the Internet will shut down tomorrow.

      Step 3: Start Gaining Experience & Never Stop

      How do you get good at something? By doing it countless times, of course!

      The more experience and knowledge you have, the more you can put into your content and show to your audience – and to Google. And the more you have to show, the more credible you appear in everyone’s eyes.

      And don’t be afraid to make mistakes. A bad experience is also a valuable experience.

      Step 4: Create Original, In-Depth Content – Lots Of It

      Obviously, no expert steals other people’s work. Real stars create their own content and make it as good as they can.

      Be original, be amazing, be productive – that’s pretty clear.

      What else should you do to get the most out of your content?

      • Update your outdated content. It’s easier and faster than writing a more up-to-date article from scratch. It’s also more correct from an SEO standpoint, as older pages have more authority than freshly made ones.
      • Include links to other sources. The more authoritative they are, the better. It makes your own content look more credible too, since you clearly know the best sources.
      • Fill your content with relevant keywords and phrases. Only your own experience can identify the best phrases to use, but WebCEO’s Keyword Suggestions tool is a great place to start looking.
      • Promote your content. Social media and email outreach are your best options.

      Also, quantity matters as much as quality. If you want to become a real authority, one or two articles won’t be enough no matter how great they are – you will need to make many more to cover your niche in full.

      Step 5: Create Different Types Of Content

      You may be sticking to one niche, but every niche can be presented in multiple formats.

      Therefore, you should rely on more than just blog posts. What else is there?

      • Podcasts.
      • Graphs and diagrams.
      • Case studies and research reports.
      • Images (photos, infographics).
      • Videos (including shorts, streams, webinars).

      The more you can make, the better. However, it’s okay to focus on only a few types of content as long as you can make them excellent.

      Step 6: Use An Efficient Internal Linking Structure

      When one page links to another, it shares some of its own authority with it.

      Interlink your site’s pages in an efficient way, and you will achieve two important goals:

      1. Your visitors will easily find any content they want.
      2. Your important pages will receive as much authority as possible.

      Note that page authority is not the same as topical authority. But the two are still connected, and increasing one increases the other.

      How Do I Create An Efficient Internal Link Structure?

      As was mentioned before, you need to create lots of content to explore a niche in full.

      Some of the pages you make will be closely related by covering different aspects of the same topic. Those pages can be grouped into a topic cluster.

      What Is A Topic Cluster?

      A topic cluster has (usually) one page with the main topic and several others with related topics. For example:

      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical ExpertiseScreenshot from Conductor.com, April 2018

      The hub page has the most authority in the cluster and shares it with the rest, making them more visible in search, too.

      So how do you maximize your page authority – and topical authority with it? For that, you need to know exactly how much authority your pages hold. Find out with WebCEO’s Internal Links tool.

      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical ExpertiseScreenshot from WebCEO, February 2024

      Then build topic clusters around your most authoritative pages.

      Step 7: Get Backlinks From Authoritative Sites

      Remember about authoritativeness? That’s the A in E-E-A-T, and it’s one of the most time-consuming parts because it requires building links to your content – the toughest part of SEO.

      But before anything else, you must find trusted sites whose backlinks will boost your authoritativeness. And the best way to do it is to see where your competitors are getting their backlinks.

      Open WebCEO’s Competitor Backlink Spy.

      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical ExpertiseScreenshot from WebCEO, February 2024

      Add your competitors’ sites in the Settings and press Save. The tool will generate a table with all of your competitors’ backlinks, with anchor texts and domain authority.

      Ideally, you will want to build your own backlinks from the most authoritative sites. And yes, your competitors are fair game, too! Here are a few effective link building methods:

      • Create content that’s likely to get backlinks. The best examples include case studies, research papers, and statistics – users love interesting data.
      • Find unlinked mentions of your brand and turn them into backlinks.
      • Find articles with outdated information on other sites. If they have links to outdated sources, offer to replace them with a link to your own, up-to-date source.
      • Find broken links on other sites and offer a replacement from your own site.
      • Collaborate with other specialists in your niche (e.g. via podcasts).

      Step 8: Grow Your Online Reputation

      Gaining clout requires transparency.

      People and companies cannot become authorities by staying hidden in the shadows like the infamous hacker Anonymous. At the very least, you will need to attach a name and a face to your content – for example, in an author bio.

      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical ExpertiseScreenshot from Inc.com

      The more professional it looks, the better.

      What else can you do?

      • Get positive reviews from your users. Often, they leave a review if you simply ask. Don’t be discouraged by bad reviews – having a few of them makes you look more natural than having none at all.
      • Create an About Us page. Describe your company and your experts, and feel more than free to brag about your successes.
      • Create pages on social media. Ideally, you want a page for your company and a page for each of your experts on every social network where your presence makes sense. Of course, if you work solo, then all you need is a single page just for you. Don’t forget to link to your social media pages from your site.
      • Engage with your followers on social media. Like their posts, follow them back when appropriate and, most importantly, reply to them as soon as possible. Setting up a chatbot can help you tremendously with the latter.
      • Engage with your competitors in social media. Be active on their pages, and you just might end up stealing from them a client or two (or more).

      Step 9: Create A Wikipedia Page

      Wikipedia is a very well-known and trusted resource. Having a page there is a huge boost to any person or brand’s image – especially if the article is filled with detailed information.

      Of course, you can only create a Wikipedia page about yourself as a person if you are already famous. Otherwise, your best bet is a page about your company.

      Either way, you are going to need an auto-confirmed Wikipedia account – one that is at least 4 days old and has made at least 10 edits. After that, you can start making your page. Feel free to use other, similar pages as a basis.

      And remember to include citations and sources from sites other than your own.

      Step 10: Provide Excellent User Experience

      And of course, a true expert’s website is expected to run flawlessly. Professionals have standards – and so do users who consult experts.

      What can you do to make your site a welcoming place?

      • Increase your loading speed. Find your slow-loading pages with WebCEO’s Speed Optimization tool and follow its recommendations for improving them.
      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical ExpertiseScreenshot from WebCEO, February 2024
      • Ensure mobile-friendliness. Your site must be responsive and work well on all devices. In the same Speed Optimization tool, click the Mobile tab and see where your site is falling short.
      • Fix technical errors. Find all errors on your site with the Technical Audit tool and fix them promptly.
      10 Steps To Grow Your SEO Authority & Topical ExpertiseScreenshot from WebCEO, February 2024
      • Translate your content into multiple languages. If you are after a multilingual audience, this is a must.
      • Ensure user accessibility. Make sure all kinds of visitors can use your site, not just healthy ones. Use a tool like ARIA by EquallyAI to see what sort of additions your site needs.

      Wrapping Up

      If you set the goal to become an expert in your field, then gaining topical authority will be a natural part of the process. It will take years of hard, prolific work; it’s your choice whether to commit or not. But the reward for this choice is acknowledgment in your community and in search engines.

      Take the first step on this long road. Arm yourself with SEO tools that will help your content reach the top rankings faster.
