A curious SEO wild sow in search of optimization opportunities.

Why Wild SowSEO?

Wild SowSEO is a made-up keyword in the context of an SEO contest taking place. Such contests are regularly organized with the aim to rank #1 in Google for a certain keyword. Organizer of the contest in 2019 is SEO-DAY, a company from Cologne.The contest WildsauSEO also makes it clear how SEO professionals are with heart and soul in the matter and live for your job. Day and night new keywords are analyzed, navigations are improved, article structures are revised and new MarkUps are integrated. Like little truffle pigs, you are always on the lookout for the next optimization opportunity.There are many websites with the basics of SEO, however, only here are answered for the first time five basic WildsauSEO questions that will help you rise from a normal SEO to a WildsauSEO and push your websites to the Ultimo.

1. How do I find the right keyword?

Use the numerous options of keyword tools to define the optimal combination for your site. The tools show you the average search volume as well as the competition for the specific keyword. They also show you other keywords that are searched for in the context.

2. What is structured data?

With the help of structured data you enable Google to improve the analysis of the page content and its presentation. Keyword here is the Rich Snippet, which every SEO dreams of and every wild sowSEO has. A Structured Data Testing Tool helps to see if the schema.org MarkUps have been deposited correctly and are recognized by Google. The most different types of content can be marked up for example a FAQ page, an event or product.

3. How can I improve the loading speed of my page?

The smaller your images are and the simpler the technical framework of your website is designed, the faster your page will load in the end. Lazy loading, for example, is a way to speed up loading, because here your images always load when they arrive in the viewport of the reader, by scrolling or zooming in. This aspect is definitely of great importance, because with every second that your page takes longer to load, you can make up to seven percent conversion losses.

4. What are backlinks?

Every Wild SowSEO knows about the importance of relevant and high-quality links to your own website. These help Google to better classify your website in the context, to recognize whether relevant and qualitative content has been published and in the course with the link popularity conclusions can be drawn about the importance of the page.As a website owner, however, you should not only be on backlinks, but also be willing to link to other qualitative and relevant pages. It is a give and take.

5. What is the user intention?

Last but not least, it must be mentioned that the user intention should always be in the foreground, but what exactly is that anyway? Google users come to a website with the help of a search phrase, which means they have a certain expectation of what they hope to get from your article. As a wild SEO piggy you have to be able to put yourself in a users shoes and understand what he expects and then build the page on it.A good wild sowSEO is like a truffle piggy in the SEO forest, it spends a lot of energy to look for the intention of the readers, because only then the optimizations can also benefit and help all parties.
