Blogs on your own website
Most users will use a blog post on their website. Not only is it fun to create a blog but it is also good for your Google Ranking, so you will rank higher in Google here.
This is especially useful if you have your own webshop where you sell products.In this blog post we are going to go through what a blog can do for you on your hosting.
Google Ranking
Perhaps the most important reason that people write blogs for their website has to do with the Google ranking.You will rank higher in Google which of course can attract more visitors to your website.
More visitors means more customers for your webshop.Perhaps you are now wondering how exactly you can get higher in Google by writing blog posts.
One way to do this is to always put links in your blog posts that point to your own website.For example, if you provide hosting services then you can place a link for this.
There are of course other things you can do to improve the findability of your website.Speed plays a big role in this, if it takes too long to load, visitors will click away.
How do I make my website fast?
Of course you want to have a fast website but maybe you are wondering how to do this.One of the best ways to do this is to use SSD hosting.
SSD drives are in fact generally 40 to 60 percent faster than normal HDD drives.If you combine this with GZIP, for example, you will notice that your website will be a lot faster immediately.
Besides that it is also important to take into account the images on your website.If these are very large images then they will also load a lot slower.
Before you put an image on your website, check how big it is and what size it is.If it is a PNG file it is recommended to convert it to a JPG file, this is a smaller format that loads faster.
It is also important to add alt tags to your images, this has to do with the fact that Google often does not recognize images.Therefore you should always use an alt tag, so Google can still recognize the image.
