When building links, just make sure all links are quality.
Make sure there built in a white hat way.
We got our company to sell many more Bristol summer houses, because the links we built were quality do-follow links.
It does depend, on how often that business gets crawled and indexed by Googlebot,
because if the website gets crawled and indexed, a lot, it means your backlink will get indexed faster.
So, in regards to our company, we notice if we build new links, it takes about week, to get indexed. Yet that's for a company which builds garden offices in Bath, England.
How long it takes your links to get indexed, does differ depending on each business,
yet we would say, it now takes just over a week for most new links to get indexed-
Hope this helps, we have some more advice about link building here:
We added Schema mark-up to our company's NAP information.
It definitely improved our local SEO.
We run a Bristol summer house company.
When we used Yoast SEO, and schema, our SEO improved.
So, we would on a huge e-commerce website, thousands of products, always changing. Its massively time consuming, but every bit of text, must be written in a white hat way. unique, high quality, meets the guidance set out in Google E-EAT. Plus, so too must the meta titles, meta descriptions, its only way to enhance the SEO for each page. Duplicated text, or "content thin" text, and this will dilulte the power of the organic SEO across the whole website. does this help? We have more help on our Cardiff SEO website.
So, a business will wanta a mixture of do-follow and no-follow quality backlinks.
Most importantly, these links need to be relevant to your business, high quality, and built-in a white hat way.
What we mean by relevant is if you run lets, say, a business in the automotive sector and you manufacture, let's say, car turbos,
then will you need links from other automotive-related websites.
For example, we manufacture wooden summerhouses, so we want links from other construction websites that will help to improve our organic SEO.
We had this problem with a summerhouse company website which we own,
we had a lot of FAQs within what is called an accordion.
The text within the accordion couldn't get indexed, that's because the text, was written in an FAQ in drop-down boxes or accordions on a WordPress website where the information couldn't get indexed;
so we had to fix this, to improve our seo.
Whether it's a WordPress website or a different type of CMS that your business has?
your business should have superfast hosting, don't go for cheap hosting.
that's because fast hosting can help improve your business's organic seo.
We bought really good hosting from a company called A2, they host our Bristol garden room website, and its helped improve our seo.
What often happens is the homepage of most businesses; this is the page that gets link to the most,
because it has the most backlinks leading to it, that's why that page is often displayed most of the results.
For example, we run a business that sells garden rooms in South West England, and there are many variations of the same building that we build, so for example there called "Garden Bars" "Summerhouses" "Garden Gyms" and we have different pages for every single product we sell.
Still, its the home page which most often appears most on Google, simply because we have so many do-follow quality links leading to that page, so the organic SEO, is improved for that page, so it gets more organic visitors,
So sometimes, let's say the website is brand-new, sometimes it can take a while to get indexed,.
A lot of Cardiff SEO business we talk to also believe, a new website goes to something called the sandbox period, so sometimes it can take a while for a new website actually to appear in Google if it is a brand-new company website that's just been built.
So, sometimes, people think adding a sitemap to their company website, is something thats very difficult to do.
for example, they may think they need a web designer to do this for them, yet often you can do it yourself, its very simple.
so if your business has a WordPress website, then it can be a piece of cake to add a site map.
If you use Yoast, its a free plugin, , you can add a site map very easily to your website, which you can then send to your site map to Google Search Console for indexing .
We did this for a large garden room company within the city of Bristol, and what happens is that it makes sure every single page and blog post is indexed.
We recommend not having any duplicate content marketing on your website.
We had this problem with a summerhouse Bristol company, where some of the pages were duplicated, and what can happen is that this can sometimes negatively and adversely affect the organic Seo for that business, because it has duplicated text So, instead, take the time to write high-quality, unique content marketing for every page and blog post.
Sometimes, a website is brand-new, so it might just have been finished by the web designers, and it can take a while for it to be indexed and to appear in your SEO tools, in terms of where the business ranks for different keywords and also to show how many links you have.
Also it can take a while for Google Search Console to index a brand new website and show the SEO information.
It can take a while for the data to come into those accounts, simply because the website might be brand-new?
We have two garden room companies, one in Bath, England, One in Bristol, it took i think quite a while for the Google Search Console, to show us for example, what links we hand built for our summerhouse business.
We use this Bit.ly to shorten the URL for our SEO blog posts which we write.
We try to write an organic SEO blog post once a week, then we post the link to our SEO blog posts on Facebook.
We think Bit.ly is a brilliant tool, its a handy tool that is free to use we think?
so we recommend using it. We use it for our company, which offers Cardiff SEO Services and we would recommend using Bit.ly
Now, often, you do need a lot of quality backlinks in order to get a business onto page one of Google.
You might need so much more than 10 links, you might need over a hundred quality backlinks or even more sometimes.
The most important thing to remember is that the links must be white hat and high quality.
We build a lot of links for a company that specialises in building garden bars. This business is now on the first page for summerhouses, garden offices, garden rooms.
The best way to do this is to improve your local SEO, is to start with on-page SEO,
invest your time into writing high-quality content marketing, and build high-quality backlinks- this takes a lot of time, but when you get on page one of Google, its worth it.
we done this for a Bristol garden room company, and it has produced absolutely amazing results for this business, its now selling garden rooms, all over South West England
In regards to an "XML site map"- it's essential to have a site-map on your company website, that's because it makes it much easier for a Google Bot, to find the pages/ blog posts to crawl and index these if you have a XML site map.
We added a Yoast SEO site map to our Bristol Garden Room company website, in Bristol to ensure that all the blog posts / main pages were getting indexed.
You can use Google Analytics, which can show you how many organic visitors have been visiting a page, such as the homepage on your website.
For example, you can look at how many organic visitors visit the main pages. We do this our garden room business, as we want to know how many organic visitors we are getting every month.
We integrated social media icons into our website within the header of the website and the footer.
This allowed us to obtain many more social media followers.
Since doing this to our garden room in Bristol has a lot more followers on our Facebook and on our business YouTube account.
This could be because some really good-quality links might have been deleted?
For example, if you had links from the BBC, they could massively improve your organic SEO, yet the website will move down the serps if deleted.
We had good quality backlinks deleted for our Bristol garden office company, so we had to start building more good quality links, to improve the company's organic SEO.
We regularly use internal links from the blog to our main pages, which can help reduce the business's bounce rate.
For example, rather than the shopper leaving the site, shoppers start to read about another product or service you sell. We don’t do this for a Cardiff demolition company, and it helped reduce the company's bounce rate.
This could be because good quality, do-follow links were deleted?
alternatively, it could be a manual penalty, or it could just be a Google algorithm update that is rolling out,
you may notice less of a change in terms of where your business ranks in a few weeks.
We own a business selling Bristol garden offices.
It moved to page 2 and then back to page one of Google during a major Google update, yet during that time, we made no changes to the organic SEO.
We have improved our company's organic SEO by writing “ever-green content marketing” and building quality links. We did this for a Cardiff fencing business; it's how we got it onto the first page, and that business has been on the first page for a long time. So, we would recommend writing white hat, blog posts, which your businesses customers will find useful to read.
All content marketing, whether it’s the main pages or blog posts, needs to all be written in a white hat way.
Do read about Google E-EAT. The pages need to be very high quality, or they won't appear in the Google SERPs.
We got a Bristol garden office company onto page one of Google, we have mainly done this by writing ever-green content marketing.
If the serps are volatile, it's often because of a significant Google algorithm update.
Also, check if your business has incurred a Google manual penalty or not. An SEO agency can check this for you.
If there are excessive ranking fluctuations, often this is because of a Googe core algorithm update.
We recommend waiting a few weeks to see where your website ranks after the update has finished rolling out.
It happened for the Bristol Summerhouse business which we own; it moved to page 2 and then back to page 1 without us needing to improve the company's organic SEO.
Hi there, so we would highly recommend, writing very high-quality evergreen content marketing.
Before writing this, we would recommend you read about Google E-EAT.
Our writers wrote work for our Bristol garden building company, and that's how we now rank on the first page.
This is mostly due to the ever-green content marketing that we wrote.
The domain authority could be low on your website because it is brand-new, so you need to improve the organic SEO.
It could also be because you haven't got enough good-quality backlinks. Our summerhouse business did drop off slightly off the first page because some backlinks were deleted.
It can take an awful long time for backlinks to get indexed, so for example, you might get a good quality backlink. It might sometimes take over two weeks for that to be reflected in your Google Search Console account.
We are seeing that at the moment for a garden room business, it's taken over two weeks for links to be shown in our account.
This could be for a number of different reasons, it could be because of an algorithm update.
It could be because of a penalty which might have been applied.
However, we seen this with a fencing company, and this often when really good quality backlinks get deleted, and then the algorithm adjusts where your business should ranked because some good links may have been deleted?
There and no real downsides to shortening the title of an article, as long as the title of page / blog post accurately explains what the page or blog post is about.
We done this for a fencing business because some of the titles were to long for the meta title and description, so we had to rewrite them to make them shorter.
We added schema markup on the NAP information on our website,
so we used it on our Cardiff fencing website; we also used the schema mark-up to mark-up the NAP information on the our Contact Us page, and also in the footer of our website.
The domain authority could be low on your website because it is a brand-new company website?
So you need to improve the organic SEO.
It could also be because you haven't got enough good-quality backlinks.
Our fencing business dropped slightly off the first page, simply because some backlinks were deleted, so could it be because you have backlinks deleted?
It can take a long time for new backlinks to get indexed, so, for example, you might get a good quality backlink that might sometimes take over two weeks to appear in your Google Search Console account.
We see that it's taken over two weeks now for new links to be shown in our account for a Cardiff fencing business.
This could be for several different reasons, that your business has noticed a drop in SEO performance, it could be because of an Google algorithm update.
It could be because of a penalty which might have been applied? So do need to hire an SEO company to check this.

Your business needs to have a Google My Business account,
This will help to improve a business's local SEO.
This helps improve your local SEO, by stating your company's name, the address, and phone number which can help improve the business's SEO .
It does depend on the quality of the content marketing. If it's say 3000 words, and its really well written, is white hat and has a low bounce rate, this can help improve your organic SEO.
Don't disavow any links before talking to an seo consultant about whether the links should be disavowed or not
Many businesses have tried to disavow links themselves, and sometimesthe links might not have needed disavowing. So do contact an expert seo consultant or an SEO Agency first for advice before you disavow any links.
Improving the Organic SEO for on an old company website, is the same SEO, as you would apply to a brand new company website; that is white hat seo.
you do need high-quality content marketing and good-quality backlinks. We own a summerhouse company, and this is how we got the business on the first page of Google.
If you have spam backlinks coming to your website, it can negatively affect the business's organic SEO.
In matter of fact, the business could receive a "Google penalty"
Our demolition website had this problem, it had a lot of spam links, and the organic SEO was damaged.
if your company website can't get crawled and indexed, it will not appear on Google,
so this does needs to be fixed.
We saw this with a company selling luxury summerhouses, and if say pages, blog posts cant get indexed, then can negatively affect the seo.
We see this quite often; sometimes, an exact match domain will rank much higher than websites that seem to have better organic SEO.
What our company did was we created separate pages for every product that we sell.
This way, we can have separate titles, meta titles, meta descriptions, alt-text and content marketing, and also internal links.
We done this for a company that sells garden offices, and it allowed to us improve the SEO for that business.
We had this problem before with the website, where the blog posts couldn't be crawled.
We would highly recommend, speak to an seo agency for advice, as this can negatively affect the organic SEO if the page can't be crawled and indexed.

Yes, this could affect the SEO, as, it might increase the "bounce rate" if the customer can't quickly get to the part of the page that they wanted to read.
We recommend that a web designer fix this to improve this.
We had a company selling garden offices, and this was happening on the blog section, of the website, and we fixed it, as the bounce rate was too high.
Hello, we have been link-building to the home page for some time now.
We believe that we have better on-page SEO than some of our direct competitors.
We want to rank for “SEO Agency Cardiff,” but despite building backlinks, building Nap, and writing content marketing, it will not get onto the first page of Google.
Despite hundreds of hours spent on it, and all SEO reports saying we are better than some of the companies on there, are there suggestions as to what our agency could be missing? We would be grateful for any SEO advice, as we cant get it onto the first page of Google, despite hundreds of hours, trying get on Google for this keyword "SEO agency Cardiff".
Our best advice is, don’t ever get links from a spam website, we had spam websites linking to our demolition business, it negatively impacted our seo.
we would recommend not using duplicated content marketing, as it can damage your businesses organic seo, instead write all of the work in a white hat way.
We sometimes notice this when Google is rolling out a massive algorthim update. Sometimes all of the seo information disappears from our Google Search Console.
