In fact, the size of the worldwide wellness industry <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/2017\/02\/23\/how-wellness-trends-may-shape-health-industry-in-2017.html\">increased 10%<\/a> between 2013 and 2015.<\/p>\n<p>But the rapid growth of the industry has lead to high levels of competition. As a result, it&#8217;s getting harder and harder to compete for top spots on SERPs.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a quick look at 5 SEO tips you can use to attract more high-quality leads to your wellness site!<\/p>\n<h2>1. Improve Your Loading Speed<\/h2>\n<p>With the growth of mobile users, page loading speed is more important than ever. More than <a href=\"http:\/\/searchengineland.com\/seo-2017-mobile-optimisation-competitive-advantage-265760\">50% of mobile users<\/a> exit a site if it loads longer than 3 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, there are a few steps you can take to speed up your wellness site.<\/p>\n<p>First, you need to optimize every image on your website. You can accomplish this in three ways:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Crop out unnecessary parts<\/li>\n<li>Reduce the resolution<\/li>\n<li>Compress the image<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Next, check your hosting. If you&#8217;re on a shared hosting plan, consider upgrading to a cloud VPS plan.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, curtail the external scripts on your site. Also, if you use WordPress, only include necessary plugins.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Conduct Keyword Research<\/h2>\n<p>Producing content without keyword research is short-sighted.<\/p>\n<p>Use keyword research tools such as Google AdWords to find low-competition keywords related to your business. These are easier to rank for, which means they attract more users to your site.<\/p>\n<p>Next, make a long list of keywords that are low competition but also have a high number of searches per month. Once you have your list, use it to come up with blog topics.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Use Your Keywords\u00a0Properly<\/h2>\n<p>Having the right keywords is not enough. You also need to know how to utilize them properly.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to rank for the long-tail keyword <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubaimassage1st.com\/classes\">massage girls Dubai<\/a>, for example, you can&#8217;t litter your content with it. This will actually hurt your search engine ranking.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, start off by including your keyword in the title. Next, place it in one of your sub headers as well.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you still need to sprinkle it into your writing. However, don&#8217;t go overboard, and make sure it blends in seamlessly. Don&#8217;t forget to change your image names to include the keyword, too.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Make Use of Internal Links<\/h2>\n<p>One of the easiest ways to improve SEO is to sprinkle internal links into your content.<\/p>\n<p>Internal links help lower your bounce rate by directing visitors to other pages of your wellness site. A high bounce rate signals a low-quality site\u00a0since visitors leave after only looking at one page.<\/p>\n<p>However, be careful with your anchor text. High-quality anchor texts are both succinct and relevant to the pages they link to.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Optimize Your Meta Descriptions<\/h2>\n<p>A meta description is a short paragraph found under page titles on SERPs. It serves as a brief description for the web page.<\/p>\n<p>You want to keep your meta descriptions between 150 and 160 characters. Otherwise, you may end up cutting them off mid-sentence.<\/p>\n<p>However, provide a detailed value proposition in the meta description. Also, include a CTA if possible.<\/p>\n<p>Always avoid using the same meta description for multiple pages. Google isn&#8217;t very fond of duplicate content.<\/p>\n<h2>Get the Most Out of Your Wellness Site<\/h2>\n<p>The strategies outlined above will help improve your ranking on Google.<\/p>\n<p>Remember to put your keywords in the right places. Also, cut out unnecessary webpage components to <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.siteuptime.com\/2017\/07\/12\/how-to-quickly-improve-your-sites-page-load-time\/\">improve page load time<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, none of these changes pay off unless potential customers can reach your site. <a href=\"https:\/\/siteuptime.com\/contact.php\">Contact us<\/a> to find out how we can help prevent you from losing leads and customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SEO is a great way to increase traffic to your site as well as bring in new customers.
