  • Tim Capper: Write it, structure it - publish it.

  • CH Duaa Fatima: Tim Capper Thanks

  • Zeeshan Amin: Use Google`s Autocomplete feature to find topics no one has covered before, or the ones for which you see irrelevant posts ranked on the Google`s first page.

    That`s how you can quickly land on the Google`s first page, for sure!

  • Muhammad Hasan: Long tail keywords - onsite content structure

  • Amru Shaban: How is without backlinks “naturally”? Truth is, for best results you need backlinks.

    The sooner you accept this reality, the better for your business.

    Can you also rank without backlinks? Sure, if you find an easy keyword. Are you at a risk of being outranked at any point by someone who puts in the effort to get backlinks? Sure.

  • Ben Bar: Use other articles that already rank and link them to the new one (if they are topically relevant and similar). The juice from old ones will push the new ones. 2/3 weeks after pushing your article, you can also go to the search console and see which keyword your article is ranking and add keywords that don`t exist on your text yet.

  • Chase Leftwich: Create an audience.

  • Josh Levenson: Google Ads

  • Jaroslaw Pidburskyj: If you really really know what to do, onpage SEO is where the success lies

  • Paola Nosthas: optimize the article! Do key word research to find a popular yet easy topic to rank for. Use an optimisation tool to for SEO on your keyword (i use frase) and if you use Wordpress instal an SEO plug in (i use yoast) to make sure that your content structure and grammar is also optimised. Use in bound and out bound links. Optimise url and tags. Good luck!

  • Kristine Schachinger: If you don`t get backlinks you won`t sustain any rankings unless it`s a super niche low competition term

  • Ammon Johns: Just write the article and it will rank naturally, i.e. it will rank where it deserves to out of the thousands of results for the keywords, many of whom are at least as well written and will have backlinks.

    SEO is not about ranking naturally. It is all about ranking unnaturally well.

    If you write something that nobody wants to talk about, share, point out to others, then you haven`t written something unnaturally well, and it won`t rank unnaturally well either. Why should it?

  • Faraz Ahmed: Ammon Johns I didn`t understand your last paragraph. Please explain.

    You said "then you haven`t written something unnaturally well"... what does that mean?

    If we`ve covered a topic that no one else wrote, we can rank easily... isn`t it?

  • Ammon Johns: Faraz Ahmed if you are covering a topic that nobody else has written about, it has to be pretty obscure. If it is so obscure that nobody else has written about it, then there is probably noone searching for it either. If there is nobody searching for it then ranking in searches that never happen is moot.

    But that`s kind of a ridiculous situation.

    Imagine you somehow invent an incredible new product, radically different to anything before in some way. Maybe it is a new and safer form of battery that compares in performance to Lithium type batteries, but is made of cheaper and safer chemicals.

    Thing is, most people are still searching for what they know exists - the other types of batteries, or "what are the best batteries for X". So *those* are the searches you need to be ranking in, for which there are literally millions of rival pages.

    Now of course, if the product is that awesome, science journals will want to talk about it. News sites will naturally want to cover it. A new cheaper and safer battery technology is a big, big deal in today`s world.

    This means that even for the ultra-specifics like the name of your new manufacturing process, or the unique chemical formula you are using, or how this new technology works, and even the name of the inventor and the brand, are all being mentioned on some of the biggest, most powerful websites out there. They are competing on all your content, and they are some of the most authoritative, high-PageRank sites in the entire Internet.

    Their links will help ensure that your site will rank for many of the terms, but you see how the content of your page could not possibly compete against those sites, against all those other pages using the same terms, and it is the success of the links doing all of the work?

    If you know SEO, then over time you`ll add specific content near the top level of the site, that explains the technology, and competes for those terms again. The collective power of all of those many high authority, high reputation sites linking to you, even if only to the homepage, can be directed towards specific content, but you are using their links to power the ranking, and then your internal links structure to help push all that power or `juice` to the page that is the best experience for the specific terms.

    Are you keeping up with me so far?

  • Basit Abbas: All people suggestion were amazingBut I think that an article can`t rank without backlink

  • Mont Se: Create a reputable brand online, like CocaCola. Without backlinks, ranking won`t be sustainable imo. An article that is well written will probably attract links at some point anyway
