Eight free Google optimization tools that make you do more with less! (Recommended by digital marketing guru Neil Patel)

Google SEO tool 1. Siteline (siteliner.com)
In the era when content is king, users need high-quality content, and search engines attach great importance to high-quality content. Therefore, Google optimization marketers must pay special attention to content.

For a website, in order to satisfy the favor of users and search engines at the same time, the quality of the content that needs to be improved includes: the originality of the content (can be checked by copyscape.com), the readability of the content, the value of the content, the content on the site, repeatability.

Among them, the intra-site repetition of content, that is, the repetition of content between pages in the website, can be checked and found with Siteline, and the website structure can be optimized and content modified.

The above picture is a website I checked casually. The arrow on the left shows that the total repetition rate of this website is 2%. It can be said that it is quite good! Our general foreign trade website recommends that you control the repetition rate within 15%. Of course, the lower the better.

The arrow on the right refers to the degree of repetition between each page and other pages. Due to the influence of some sidebars, navigation bars and other website structures, repetition is unavoidable, but try to control a single page within 20%.

Click the specific Match Percentage of a page, and you can see the specific repeated content analysis given by this tool (as shown in the figure below), in which the words shaded in red are highly repeated content and need to be optimized and adjusted.

Google SEO tool 2, Yoast SEO (a powerful WordPress plugin)
Yoast SEO is also one of the most commonly used tools in the ring.

After installing the Yoast SEO plugin in the background and activating it (Plugins—>Add New—>Search for Yoast SEO—>Install Now—>Activate ), you can find the functional modules of Yoast SEO whether it is Page, category page, product page or blog page, etc. .

(In addition, you can also solve the problem of URL canonicalization here, just fill in the canonical URL corresponding to this page in the Canonical URL column.)

  1. Quick layout of XML Sitemap

Google officially pointed out that a website with a Google SiteMap file (which can be automatically updated when the website is deleted or newly published) will be more conducive to the crawling index of the Google web crawling robot, which can improve the indexing efficiency and accuracy of website content, and has Good for SEO.

ok, when it comes to code problems, some friends may start to stop, but don’t worry! Yoast SEO is helping us solve this big problem with code blindness!

As long as Yoast SEO is installed on your website, an XML Sitemap file has been automatically generated.

Viewing method: Add /sitemap_index.xml after the website domain name, and click Enter. As shown below:

With the XML Sitemap file in hand, we need to submit it to Google Webmaster Tools again:

Enter the Google Search Console of the bound website (this tool will be introduced in detail below), click Crawl—>Sitemaps—>Add the sitemap file address in Add/Test Sitemap, that is, just fill in the blue box indicated by the second arrow Enter sitemap_index.xml.

Google Optimization Tool 3. Google Search Console
Google Search Console, formerly Google Webmaster Tools, is a free service provided by Google to monitor and maintain a website’s appearance in Google search results and to understand how users search through Google came to the website. Can help us optimize website performance and SEO.

In order to help you better understand this tool, I have intercepted some of the official instructions of Search Console:

Here’s how to use it in detail:

  1. Registration: Go to https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/home

Enter your website in the first arrow and click “ADD A PROPERTY”.

Then, Google Search Console will let you verify that you are the site owner:

There are recommended methods and other alternatives, if you are already registered with GTM or GA, you can tick the corresponding checkbox and click VERIFY. If there is no GTM or GA or the verification fails, it can also be verified by adding a Title tag or uploading an HTML file.

  1. Four important parts of Google Search Console:

1) Search Appearence:

That is, search result display optimization, including structured data, Html optimization, mobile page (AMP) optimization, etc., you can set according to your needs.

2) Search Traffic

Namely search traffic, this part is important. Divided into 5 parts:

①search Analytics

The blue box is the data indicator, including: clicks, impressions, click-through rate, average position

The yellow box is to segment the data, including: query term, page, country, device, search type, search display, date.

By checking the yellow and blue boxes, you can get the following data reports:

· The keywords of the website or a specific webpage and its clicks, impressions, CTR or average position; (check the blue box to see the data. Select the queries in the yellow box, if you want to be specific to a page, you need to Set the settings for Pages, and so on, I won’t go into details later)
· The number of clicks, impressions, CTR or average position of all pages on the entire site;
· Country-specific clicks, impressions, CTR or average position;
· Clicks, impressions, CTR or average position from different devices (Mobile, Desktop, Tablet);
· Number of clicks, impressions, CTR or average position for search type (web, video, image);
· Clicks, impressions, CTR or average position for different search forms;
· Clicks, impressions, CTR or average position over time;
·We feel that this part of search analysis is of great significance to SEO, whether it is pages with high click-through rate, words with high click-through rate, keywords with ranking, or the main source countries, etc., can provide direction for our next SEO work.

For example, for keywords with a high number of impressions but a moderate click-through rate, we can increase the relevance and attractiveness by adding keywords to the Title Tag and Description of the corresponding page, thereby increasing the click-through rate.

②Links to your link

You can see which websites give you more links; which pages of your website get more links; what are the anchor texts of the links;

③Internal Links: You can see which pages are mainly used as internal links on the entire website, and you can also see which internal links on a specific page point to it.

Alternatively, you can also request Google’s indexing of the page here.

④robots.txt Tester

FAQ
关于人工咨询
人工付费咨询是一个非常公平的模式,原则上采取不成功不收费、没效果不收费!对于没有把握解决的问题/或很小的问题导致用户明显不会付费的因素,人工微信可能会采取静默(冷处理)的方式。 我们任何人去医院看医生,无论最后治疗不治疗/有没有治疗效果,都是需要付费挂号甚至是付费检查。有些甚至花钱治疗了都效果不明显,为了保证公平、公正的交易,这边没有把握的问题、事情,默认也可能不回复受理。 有些问题不能解决或规则锁死了,用户找我“付费咨询”的目的是帮助有效解决问题,因为受系统限制无法及时有效解决或无解,用户也肯定不会愿意付费给我,所以我也没有任何义务去解释这个问题/没有义务解释问题的原因所在及是否有解。我想等待用户撞了南墙死磕到底也会获得答案的。
关于文章付费阅读购买
