Common mistakes when SEO website promotion

SEO mistakes are quite common. Let's look at a few of the most common ones, which, in my opinion, deserve special attention:

  • Obsession with exact occurrences of keywords. Using key phrases such as “plastic windows Moscow installation” without changes is an outdated practice that is more likely to harm promotion than help.
  • Ignoring LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Additional keywords that are related to the main query by context can significantly improve page ranking and provide a more complete coverage of the topic.
  • Use one keyword per page. Often there is an error of page overloading with keywords, which can also harm rankings. A variety of key phrases and their natural distribution are important for successful promotion.
  • Ignoring search intent (user intent). For example, on a page about selling smartphones, you should not use keywords related to the repair of these devices. Also, using phrases with the tail “reviews” on pages where there are no reviews violates user expectations and reduces trust in the resource.
  • Using keywords suggested by the client. Sometimes customers insist on promotion for certain keywords, without taking into account the results of the analysis. The professional must convince the client that promotion should be based on careful analysis and not on the client's suggestions.
  • Promotion only using high-frequency keywords. High-frequency queries are the most competitive queries and often have low conversion rates because they often do not match the true intent of the users. Mid- and low-frequency queries should also be a focus, as they can lead to target audiences with more precise needs.
  • Poorly developed site structure. An irrational structure makes navigation difficult for both the user and search engines. Even high-quality content can lose its effectiveness due to inconvenient site architecture.
