🚀 This Week’s Growth Hack:

The True Secret To Effective SEO

As many of you know, I’ve been investing more and more of my time and money into SEO for my projects (GrowthDaily.com & AgencyReviews.io) over the last few months. And after speaking to a few experts & teams about taking over SEO for some my projects, I realized that pretty much all of the SEO content online is about keyword research and how to write blog articles that rank. After speaking to The HOTH, I learned that none of that truly matters without solid ‘Technical SEO’ which sounded intimidating to me at first… But it’s actually quite simple! 

The good news is that you don’t need to be a technical wizard to get started. With the right tools, you can easily identify and fix issues that may be holding your site back. These tools can help with tasks like:

+ identifying and fixing indexing errors

+speeding up page load times

+locating broken links

+ and much more!

Imagine investing an hour to do keyword research and then another hour to write a really effective blog article, but no one can find it because there’s no internal links pointing to it—this is known as an orphan page. Without a technical SEO audit, such issues go unnoticed, leaving valuable content hidden from both users and search engines.

The HOTH sent me a super-helpful guide to Technical SEO that walked me through a handful of Technical SEO tools I needed. They said they would handle all of this before me but some of these tools 

The 9 'Technical SEO’ Tools You Need

1. Google Search Console (GSC)

GSC is indispensable for monitoring keyword rankings, backlinks, and indexing errors. It gives you insight into how Google views your site and alerts you to any indexing issues, such as pages excluded by noindex tags.

2. Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

GA4 complements GSC by focusing on user behavior and engagement metrics. It offers real-time insights, helping you address issues like high bounce rates or low dwell times promptly.

3. HOTH SEO Audit Tool

This free tool provides a comprehensive audit, highlighting issues like canonical tags, duplicate H1 tags, and schema markup errors. The audit includes a task list to streamline your SEO improvements. Get your HOTH SEO Audit here

4. Google PageSpeed Insights (PSI)

PSI assesses your website's load speed and suggests fixes to enhance user experience. Although it uses approximations, it's an excellent starting point for resolving speed issues.

5. GTmetrix Page Speed Report

GTmetrix combines Google Lighthouse data with real-world testing from various locations, providing a detailed analysis of your site's loading times and user experience.

6. Screaming Frog

A website crawler that identifies duplicate content, URL structure issues, and response code errors. It's a must-have for spotting and fixing technical SEO problems.

7. W3C Validator

Validates your site's code against W3C standards, ensuring easier crawling by search engines and a better user experience.

8. MozBar

A Chrome extension providing real-time SEO insights, such as domain authority, page authority, and backlink analysis.

9. Barracuda Panguin

Tracks the impact of Google algorithm updates on your site, helping you understand and respond to ranking changes.

Wrapping Up

These tools make ‘Technical SEO’ straightforward and easier. From detecting duplicate content to fixing indexing errors, they ensure that your site's technical aspects are in top shape. Every company, regardless of size, should block out time regularly to dig into these tools and conduct thorough technical SEO audits. Doing so not only enhances your site's performance and user experience but also ensures that your valuable content gets the visibility it deserves. 

Prioritize technical SEO today and watch your search rankings improve!
