SEO Techniques to Boost Your B2B Brand’s Ranking


Do you want your online B2B marketplace to get flooded with traffic and ranked higher on Google? If yes, then you have to focus on initiating the perfect SEO marketing campaign.

Search engine optimization (SEO) is a technique used to make your content Google friendly as well as recognizable online. Today, I’ll share a few SEO techniques every B2B marketer should use to increase their keyword ranking.

1.     High DA Backlinks

If you start getting backlinks for websites that are low on authority or high on spam score, you’ll only end up getting your rank decreased. In addition, with Moz’s new update every website has experienced a drop or rise in their DA. So if you have already gotten backlinks in the past, it’s better to go through them and try to remove those that either has a low DA or has a higher spam score now.

2.     Increase Your Site’s Speed

There are many online tools available for free that can test your site’s speed. If the score is low, it is about time that you do something about it. Google dislikes sites that show a low-speed score on both desktop and mobile. To boost your speed, you can optimize your images, use cache and improve your JavaScript and CSS.

Not only do your keywords start falling, but your site also gets penalized and de-indexed from Google. That means you’ll be out of the picture in no time.

4.     Use Conversational and Long-Tail Keywords

We all know that more and more people are using voice search to find things online. Well, it’s much more comfortable than typing. However, voice search queries are conversational and longer. That means if you want your webpage to appear on a specific question, answer or merely a more extended voice search query, you’ll have to use long-tail and conversational keywords. If you go a few years back, more people were typing around 2-3 words to look for something. However, now users even type in full questions. Therefore, add all those long-tail keywords so that your site can have higher traffic and ranking.

Wrap Up

SEO is no walk in the park. It requires patient and research. So begin looking for the best short-tail and long-tail keywords relevant to the content on your site. After that, make your site mobile friendly and optimize it to enhance its speed. Once that happens, you’ll eventually experience a rise in both your ranking and t
