After making the sitemap, click on ‘Sitemap’ in the Google Search Console Dashboard and paste the last part of your sitemap’s URL (sitemap_index.xml) and then click on the submit button.
Don’t Create a Multi-Topic Blog.
Often new bloggers make this mistake. If you make a mistake in choosing your blog topic, you will not succeed in blogging.
Before starting blogging, find out which topic you like more, and you can write well on that topic.
I would recommend you create a single niche blog.
The reason is, single niche blogs rank well in Google search results, and they achieve success quickly.
Whereas Google does not understand the multi-topic blog what it is about. Another reason, the DA (Domain Authority) of a multi-topic blog does not grow fast.
Publish Quality Content
If you want to see your post in the first place in the Google search engine, you have first to pay attention to the quality of the content.
Always try to write unique and quality content. Apart from this, your content should be exciting and evergreen. here is a guide
And one thing that you need to pay attention to, your article should be at least 1000 words. Because more effective content performs better in search engines than smaller content.
But to increase the length of the article, do not write useless things in your essay. Explain any topic clearly and give complete information about it. If you note any incomplete issue, visitors will not like to visit your site.
Write Catchy Title
Tiles play an essential role in increasing CTR and user engagement on your blog.
No one will click on your article if you write a great article but don’t write a catchy title because 50% to 60% of the people click on the article after seeing the post’s title.
If you write a catchy title with great content, you will have the following advantages.
- More Readers.
- Incoming Links.
- New Subscribers
So, always write an attractive and unique title for your blog post.
Here are Quick Tips on How to Write a Good Title:
Keep post title short (less than 60 characters)
Try to put the primary keyword at the beginning of the title.
- Use numbers in your title.
- When, why and how to use.
- Write the title of the post.
- Use media in your articles.
- Media enhances the quality of your content and makes your content attractive and valuable.
Simply put, an image can explain 1000 words.
If you want to keep your blog visitors longer, do not forget to use media in your content.
Use SEO Friendly Permalinks Structure
If your blog is on WordPress, its default permalinks structure is not SEO-friendly. To make it SEO-friendly, you have to select the post name option in Permalinks Structure.
Quick Tips to Create SEO Friendly URL:
- Make your blog post URL short and easy.
- Add your target keyword.
- Do not add extra words to your URL.
Optimize Meta Description
Meta Description is a short description of your blog post that appears below the title in search results.
Meta descriptions help to increase CTR on your blog. It should be 156 characters with a focus keyword.
Always remember one thing, don’t do keyword stuffing in meta description because it comes under black hat SEO.
Optimize Your Images
Google cannot read the image. It uses the ALT tag to crawl the image, so use the proper ALT tag for your image.
Also, if you use any images on your blog, resize and compress them. It reduces your image size and improves loading speed. Here is a guide.
SEO Your Blog
The full name of SEO is “Search Engine Optimization”, which helps you get top rank in search results (Google, Bing, Yahoo, and other search engines) and increase your website traffic. Although SEO is not difficult, you can make a big difference in your blog or website’s ranking with the basic knowledge of SEO.

Off-Page SEO: In this SEO process, link building and promotion are involved.
Black Hat SEO
Black Hat SEO is used to get the top rank in the search results. This goes against the search engine guidelines and leads your site to a penalty. Black Hat SEO can give instant results, but over time, it also has the opposite effect, lowering your ranking and leaving your site completely blacklisted from search results.
