What is The Need For powerful SEO?
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) helps a website rank higher in SERP(Search Engine Results Pages).
As reports and data have adequately confirmed, most users perform an internet search related to their intended action. So whether it is research, purchase or a vacation booking, a user’s actions can be influenced by the results they see.
Merely showing up in the search results is not enough – there can be millions of those. It is important to be at the top of the search results. Being on the first page of Google results can get you attention. Even there, it is the top three results that take most of the clicks.
A result-oriented strategy for SEO aims to bring the top results. Of course, that is easier said than done, which is why a comprehensive SEO strategy is necessary.
SEO is an excellent way to drive organic traffic to your website. It is reliable and has increasing returns. A good SEO Company will come with strategies to drive more traffic than comparable PPC marketing.

Here’s a peek at our approach to get your website to the top of SERPs
Website Audit
A website audit is the natural place to start. A Top SEO Company will audit the website to check for technical robustness and code, its SEO strengths, and its weaknesses. It is most relevant for websites that have been online for a while now and have a reputation with a search engine. For new websites, an audit shows their readiness or compatibility with SEO. Some common considerations for audit are:
- Ensuring that search engines can crawl the website. This includes checking if the robots.txt file is correctly set up.
- Checking if the website is employing technologies that cannot be crawled by search engines e.g. Flash, Java Applets.
- See if there is an over-reliance on audio, video, or images that cannot be properly indexed or crawled by the search engines.
- Organic traffic of the website.
- Current ranking keywords (if any).
- Site structure and content.
- Others, as necessary.
An audit is something of an academic process. Its purpose is to generate information useful for optimization. It creates a blueprint for a comprehensive SEO strategy. It is rare for any changes to be made during an audit. A Competitive SEO Company with study the findings and make recommendations accordingly for better results.
Technical SEO
This part takes care of the server and technical issues related to optimization. As noted, the ideal goal is to have a feature-rich website with plenty of content. Outstanding UI and UX are necessary and all of that must be achieved without sacrificing page speed.
- Ensuring the website server has a fast response time.
- Checking website code to ensure it is compliant with best practices and is not bloated.
- Optimizing website architecture/structure and generating a sitemap. There should be a good flow of link juice between the pages of the website, thus taking greater advantage of domain authority and page authority.
- Compressing and optimizing any images used on the website/page.
- Where necessary, loading of scripts, images or other media may be deferred.
- Get HTTPS. A secure website builds trust with the user. It is also a ranking factor for SEO.
- If necessary, setting up a CDN for faster content delivery can be considered.
- Use caching and compression as necessary for faster website loading.
A Mobile-Friendly Website
Strictly speaking, this is a part of technical SEO and any top SEO Company will never overlook this aspect. However, optimizing for mobile devices is important enough to deserve special mention. Mobile phones and tablets are everywhere. They already make a big part of search devices, and their number continues to rise.
Ranking well on a mobile device is as important (perhaps more important nowadays) than ranking high on computers. It is best to design a website and serve it keeping in mind the screen size of mobile devices.
A responsive design that adjusts to the screen in use and is sufficient for most websites. However, a mobile-specific website can be used in some cases.
In-Depth-Keyword Research

Keywords are perhaps the most recognized aspect of SEO. The recognition is well deserved. Keywords form the lynchpin of any SEO strategy. Keywords often represent user intent or user interest. Another point of interest is the keyword search volume, which represents the number of searches conducted for the specific keyword daily or monthly in a particular Geography.

Schema Markup
Everyone gets those run-of-the-mill, bland search results on the search pages. However, the ones with schema markup stand out from their competition.
