4 SEO Tips to Start the New Year Off Right
One of the most vital things you can do to boost your SEO in 2019 is to plan ahead. When it comes time to deliver content, you don’t want to jump in when everyone else is getting clicks and mining popular keywords for rank.
The sooner you write targeted content, the more likely it is to rank when that topic becomes relevant. Have you ever noticed before new games and movies come out you’ll often see a ton of articles about the topic?
Let’s look at the latest blockbuster game – Red Dead Redemption 2. It launched for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on October 26, 2018, and grossed a stunning $750 million in 3 days — making it the second highest 3-day sales on an entertainment product ever, according to Fortune.
It was predicted that Red Dead 2 was going to do this well. Months before it released articles popped up along the lines of “10 Things We Want from Red Dead Redemption 2.” The goal? When this inevitable “boom” happened, these content creators wanted to be ahead of the game. They used the keywords “Red Dead Redemption 2” before anyone else so that they could rank high once the game released.
Plan ahead for all of your content. Write a few holiday articles months in advance, make sure you’re always a couple of months ahead of the trend if you want to rank going into 2019.
