Blogspot SEO: Google's 13 Best 2018 Ranking Signals

#1. Ensure your blog is MOBILE friendly. Google started penalising mobile unfriendly sites in 2015 and are likely to crack down even more. Use responsive design.

#2. Spell check posts and always use correct grammar. Well written contents is a ranking consideration. Especially after Googles new Panda update.

#3. Provide contents that is useful to its readers.Useful contents keeps visitors on your blog longer, which improves your Google ranking. Research before publishing.

#4. Create a new post at least twise per week. Regularly updated blogs rank higher than those updated randomly or less frequently. I tested that too, and it worked. 

#5. Properly label your post. Labels adds to keyword density. Widen it with related words.

#6. Format comment section. It should be no followed and moderated to avoid spam comments.It helps too.

#7. Focus on a particular niche. Many bloggers (like me) start with the idea of creating a multinihed blog. That can confuse Google entirely, and decide to ignore you.

#8. Use SEO friendly URLs. Shorter URLs rank better in Google and other engines too.

#9. Optimise the meta description. It gives searchers info they need to determine whether or not to click. Write them wisely. 

#10. Optimise your images. Search engines don’t just look for images, rather they look for alt text. Don’t forget that.

#11. Don’t use too many similar keywords. You may get penalised by Google for “keyword stuffing”.You know what that means. 

#12. Link internally when possible. They help show the validity and relivance of your content.

#13. List your blog on searh engines. I’ve seen many cases like this. So cross check your settings and webmaster tools.
