8 SEO Techniques to boost Traffic + Rankings

SEO techniques

If you want to improve your SEO efforts and rank better in 2023, follow these 8 SEO techniques. ✅

1. Keyword targeting

Keywords are phrases that are commonly searched for on Google, Firefox, etc. and they are a crucial part of determining your website’s rankings. Use the right amount of keywords in the right places and in time you’ll see your pages climb up the leaderboards.

2. Metadata

You can think of metadata almost as your shop window. Your meta title and meta description are the first things a user sees in the SERP which influences whether or not they click.

Also, Google uses what are known as ‘crawlers’ (imagine tiny robot spiders), to scan through websites and collect information that matches search queries. By including keywords in your meta data (including image tags and heading tags) Google can more quickly understand the relevance of your page.

3. Backlinks

As we move into the more technical side of things, another crucial factor in SEO performance is acquiring backlinks. This is when another website links to yours in an article or blog post. Not only does this help you gain what is known as domain authority, but it also directly improves the chances of people clicking through to your website if it appears on other reliable domains.

Also, Google uses what are known as ‘crawlers’ (imagine tiny robot spiders), to scan through websites and collect information that matches search queries. By including keywords in your meta data (including image tags and heading tags) Google can more quickly understand the relevance of your page.

4. Technical SEO

Carrying on from that, there are various other technical issues in the back end of your site that once addressed, can make a huge difference in your overall SEO results. At the end of the day, if your website’s UX isn’t smooth and accessible, it’s going to be hard for any visitor to do anything significant on your website. For context, over 50% of all online traffic is mobile, so when it comes to things like UX, the technical stuff matters.

Courses created on Storyline 360 are compatible with devices of various screen sizes, browsers, and operating systems. 

Top 11 Features of Storyline 360 

  • Content Library (Asset Library) 

The content library in Storyline 360 has been enhanced with a selection of characters and templates. When you use Storyline 360’s new and improved content library, you inevitably expedite the design and development process of your eLearning courses.

With the “Orient Shape to Motion Path” feature you can ensure that an object moves in the direction you want it to on a non-linear motion path. 

  • Interaction with Sliders 

You can employ interactive sliders to allow learners to control the data and interact with these and other elements in the course. 

  • Dial Interaction 

The dial, just like the slider, displays layers or changes the state of objects by changing the number on the dial. It’s a fun tool for learners who wish to research information and investigate cause-and-effect connections. 

  • 360 Degree Image 

By using 360-degree pictures, course designers and developers can create engaging sessions. Storyline 360’s markers and hotspots create interactive components enabling learners to connect from every possible angle. 

  • Swipe Navigation 

You can now scroll through a course on your mobile device’s screen by using your finger to slide up and down. Similarly, you can also navigate your way through the course with the ‘Next’ and ‘Previous’ buttons on your slide. This is another enhancement that affords Articulate Storyline 360’s users’ better access of eLearning courses on their mobile devices. 

  • Team slides 

You can access and create a library of integrated slides with Storyline 360 to make collaborating with your team a much easier task. This library of slides can be repurposed and included in every course that is designed for your team. 

  • Import Slides 

You can import slides from Microsoft PowerPoint, Articulate Quiz Maker, Articulate Engage, as well as reuse other projects on Storyline. You can also import Excel spreadsheets and text files into your eLearning courses. 

  • Media Library 

The media library on Storyline allows you to manage all your projects’ assets in one location. You can design your course by importing and saving photos, audios, and videos on there. You can also add, remove, change, and export them as and when required. Similarly, you can modify objects using Storyline’s third-party tools and save your changes. 

  • Tracking Multiple Result Pages 

You can consolidate multiple slides that showcase your learners’ results into a single slide. You must decide how you want to grade combined quizzes using Storyline’s scoring options. 

  • LRS 

If you intend to report your learners’ results using an LRS (Learning Record Store), you need to select the LRS tab on the left side of the window. You then must click on the box titled “Report to an external LRS” which can be found in the LRS Configuration section.

New Relic baby steps

New Relic Logo

New in New Relic  😊?

We have recently moved to New Relic as a monitoring and alerting solution for the services we run and support. Our services run on Bare Metal, Virtual Machines, Managed Servers etc. The transition from our previous monitoring and alerting tool was quite easy and straight forward. New Relic really makes it so easy to get on board for a tech person with basic understanding on how systems work.

We also found really usefull the simplicity of New Relic monitoring opinioned Host and Application views that work out of the box. And really helpfull custom dashboards.

What to avoid 🧨

Lots of things i suppose could be better setup or managed. But IMHO, when new in New Relic the following should get your attention:

PHP_FPM Tracing

When debugging an application, Tracing can be your swiss knife. In normal execution though it can drain all your available monthly data plan. I would suggest to disable it for your application when in non debugging state. To disable tracing for PHP_FPM set the tracing parameter to false in the followng PHP_FPM configuration file and restart the engine.

/etc/php/7.4/fpm/conf.d/20-newrelic.ini

newrelic.distributed_tracing_enabled = false

 

What to adjust 😉

Display Name

New Relic uses the hostname as defined in a server (virtual or not) . This solution kickstarts the agent deployment and easily joins a server in your New Relic monitoring infrastructure. Sometimes thought you would like to have an alias or a better name for a server when displayed in your New Relic Host Dashboards. To achieve this alter the display_name parameter in 

/etc/newrelic-infra.yml

display_name: "My Desired Host Name"
