    Description

    When you’re at work or at home, there’s a high chance that you’re going to use Google. You may be using Google to find a plumber for your leaky bathroom sink or see where the best sushi is in town. When you’re on Google, you’re looking for the top results which means you’re not scrolling past page one, unless, you’re desperate. So, getting your company on the first page of Google is extremely important and impactful for success. But, how do you get your business there? Well, here’s how.

    Know the Basics

    Before you do anything, you need to know the basics of how online marketing and Google search functions. By knowing the basics, you won’t waste time performing outdated tasks or being overcharged by an SEO Agency http://www.whitehatagency.com.au/seo-agency or marketing companies that recognize your lack of knowledge. Education is the key to success.

    Use SEO

    Search Engine Optimization is the method of attracting online attention and visibility through organic means. In essence, the unpaid search results - the paid search results typically have “sponsored” or “paid advertisement” written below them. But you can naturally drive traffic towards your site just by using the right keywords. Certain keywords will push your content, allowing it to be shown in the top results.

    Meet the Google Standards

    Google has standards which your website must fulfil prior to appearing as a #1 website in the search results. Google will flag any errors they deem needed fixed and you’re going to want to fix them, for example, broken links. If you don’t meet the standards, they’ll penalize all your pages until you fix them. So, take some time out of your day and make sure your website is fully functioning.

    Content is everything

    You may invest some top dollars in the look and appeal of your site but at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter what your site looks like. What truly matters is the content as that will drive viewers to your site. The Google search results are designed to provide users with the most relevant material on the web. If your content isn’t providing value to the viewers, your material won’t make it to #1.

    Focus on links

    Links play an important role when it comes to Google’s ranking system. The way Google works is that it pays attention to the hyperlinks in content to figure out what keywords are tied to the link being used. Though this doesn’t mean your entire article should be made of links, if you use too many they’ll deem it as suspicious activity and your website can be taken from Google.

    Google loves mobile-friendly

    If you want to come up with a #1 site then you need to show Google that you’re updated and relevant to the current technology. In other words, you need to make your site mobile-friendly. Many users read material while on their way to work, on the bus or on their couch. So, if you’re not catering to smartphones, well, Google isn’t going to favor you.

    Description

    Context

    Alexa Internet was founded in April 1996 by Brewster Kahle and Bruce Gilliat. The company's name was chosen in homage to the Library of Alexandria of Ptolemaic Egypt, drawing a parallel between the largest repository of knowledge in the ancient world and the potential of the Internet to become a similar store of knowledge. (from Wikipedia)

    The categories list was going out by September, 17h, 2020. So I would like to save it. https://support.alexa.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051913314

    This dataset was elaborated by this python script (V2.0): https://github.com/natanael127/dump-alexa-ranking

    Content

    The sites are grouped in 17 macro categories and this tree ends having more than 360.000 nodes. Subjects are very organized and each of them has its own rank of most accessed domains. So, even the keys of a sub-dictionary may be a good small dataset to use.

    Acknowledgements

    Thank you my friend André (https://github.com/andrerclaudio) by helping me with tips of Google Colaboratory and computational power to get the data until our deadline.

    Inspiration

    Alexa ranking was inspired by Library of Alexandria. In the modern world, it may be a good start for AI know more about many, many subjects of the world.

    Description

    This research investigated whether a university ranking system called Eduroute could provide useful information regarding the usability of universities' websites. A comparison was conducted between the results obtained by Eduroute regarding the ranking of the top three universities in Jordan, and the results obtained by the heuristic evaluation method regarding the usability of the top three universities' websites. Before employing the heuristic evaluation method, two steps were taken: Investigating the most frequently visited pages on a university's website from the viewpoint of 237 students, and developing a set of comprehensive heuristics specific to educational websites. Then, five heuristic evaluators were selected and asked to visit all the pages determined by the 237 students using the developed heuristics while evaluating each website. The results proved that the ranking of the three universities at Eduroute was an indicator regarding the overall usability of the sites; the first ranked university at Eduroute had the lowest number of usability problems identified by the evaluators, while the least ranked university had the largest number of usability problems. The heuristic evaluators also identified fourteen common usability problems on the three tested websites related to navigation, design, content, and ease of use and communication.

    Description

    Designed and produced by the World Wide Web Foundation, the Web Index is the world’s first measure of the World Wide Web’s contribution to social, economic and political progress in countries across the world. http://thewebindex.org/about/ Scores are given in the areas of universal access; freedom and openness; relevant content; and empowerment. First released in 2012, the 2014-15 Index has been expanded and refined to include a total of 86 countries and features an enhanced data set, particularly in the areas of gender, Open Data, privacy rights and censorship. The Index combines existing secondary data with new primary data derived from an evidence-based expert assessment survey. The Web Index provides an objective and robust evidence base to inform public dialogue on the steps needed for societies to leverage greater value from the Web. It is published annually and resources permitting, it will continue to be expanded to cover more countries in the coming years. It will eventually allow for comparisons of trends over time and the benchmarking of performance across countries, continuously improving our understanding of the Web’s value for humanity.

Description

When you’re at work or at home, there’s a high chance that you’re going to use Google. You may be using Google to find a plumber for your leaky bathroom sink or see where the best sushi is in town. When you’re on Google, you’re looking for the top results which means you’re not scrolling past page one, unless, you’re desperate. So, getting your company on the first page of Google is extremely important and impactful for success. But, how do you get your business there? Well, here’s how.

Know the Basics

Before you do anything, you need to know the basics of how online marketing and Google search functions. By knowing the basics, you won’t waste time performing outdated tasks or being overcharged by an SEO Agency http://www.whitehatagency.com.au/seo-agency or marketing companies that recognize your lack of knowledge. Education is the key to success.

Use SEO

Search Engine Optimization is the method of attracting online attention and visibility through organic means. In essence, the unpaid search results - the paid search results typically have “sponsored” or “paid advertisement” written below them. But you can naturally drive traffic towards your site just by using the right keywords. Certain keywords will push your content, allowing it to be shown in the top results.

Meet the Google Standards

Google has standards which your website must fulfil prior to appearing as a #1 website in the search results. Google will flag any errors they deem needed fixed and you’re going to want to fix them, for example, broken links. If you don’t meet the standards, they’ll penalize all your pages until you fix them. So, take some time out of your day and make sure your website is fully functioning.

Content is everything

You may invest some top dollars in the look and appeal of your site but at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter what your site looks like. What truly matters is the content as that will drive viewers to your site. The Google search results are designed to provide users with the most relevant material on the web. If your content isn’t providing value to the viewers, your material won’t make it to #1.

Focus on links

Links play an important role when it comes to Google’s ranking system. The way Google works is that it pays attention to the hyperlinks in content to figure out what keywords are tied to the link being used. Though this doesn’t mean your entire article should be made of links, if you use too many they’ll deem it as suspicious activity and your website can be taken from Google.

Google loves mobile-friendly

If you want to come up with a #1 site then you need to show Google that you’re updated and relevant to the current technology. In other words, you need to make your site mobile-friendly. Many users read material while on their way to work, on the bus or on their couch. So, if you’re not catering to smartphones, well, Google isn’t going to favor you.
