How To Catapult Your SEO Rank Fast With Robert Kanaat, Ep 184

Feb 11, 2021

Robert Kanaat built a multi-million dollar business with one paid traffic source. Business was booming--so much so that Robert got complacent, as he puts it, “went off the deep end.” His customers started to complain, and that led to ALL of his ads getting shut down.

 

With employees and commissions to pay, Robert scrambled to figure out what he could do to not only bring in customers, but do so without relying solely on paid traffic.

 

His search sent him down the SEO rabbit hole, where he discovered the best ways to catapult your SEO rank fast. Robert’s since gone on to become one of the top SEO masters in the world, earning praise from Ryan Deiss, Roland Frasier, and many others.

 

Whether you’re brand new to SEO or experienced and looking to further improve your SEO rank, tune in to hear Robert’s top three world-class strategies to catapult your SEO rank fast.

Beware The One-Legged Stool

Sooner or later, most entrepreneurs learn the hard way that relying on one traffic source, whether free or paid, is like sitting on a one-legged stool. Sooner or later you’re going down. When you’ve got one traffic source consistently pulling in qualified leads and sales, get to work on another. You don’t need every traffic source on the planet, but having only one puts your entire business in jeopardy. Tune into the episode to hear Robert’s tips for adding organic SEO to your rolodex of traffic sources. 

Reduce The Bounce

Most people don’t have the patience to wait on slow websites, which means the faster your pages load, the less visitors bounce, and the better your organic traffic. Tune in for Roberts tips on setting up organic SEO without bogging your site down in mountains of links, banner ads, and other elements that drain your website visitors’ patience.

Robert’s Top 3 Organic SEO Strategies

As far as search engines are concerned, putting a new website onto the Internet is a lot like being a brand new business owner who wants a business loan from the bank. This is especially true if they don’t know you or have a relationship with you. If you don’t have a history of growing successful businesses, they’re going to be a lot more leary of lending you money. It’s the same with Google and other search engines. When your site first goes up, they’re waiting to see if you stick around, follow their rules, and prove yourself with quality content, and for most new sites it takes two years to hit that status. But Robert’s top three organic SEO traffic strategies can help you speed that process up. If your site’s already established, Robert’s strategies will improve your organic SEO even more.

How To Use Videos For Organic SEO

According to Robert, well-crafted, valuable written content is superior for organic SEO. That means a video with a blurb under it is unlikely to perform as well as a 2,000-plus word blog post. It doesn’t mean videos are useless for organic SEO. You just need to include one extra step (that you can affordably outsource if you don’t want to do it yourself) to ensure your videos pull their own SEO weight. Tune in to hear exactly what to do.

Where Never To Put Your Blog

A lot of free software, like WordPress, gives you a free subdomain to host your blog. The problem is, website subdomain URLs like blog.thebeardedwonder.com don’t perform well in search results. If you’re just starting out, spend a little extra cash for a real domain, so you can put your blog at, for example, the beardedwonder.com/blog. Otherwise, when you get around to buying a real domain to host your blog, you’re starting from scratch with your SEO ranking for that page. Do it correctly straight out of the gate and save yourself that frustration.
