SEO for Beginners: Rank #1 In Google in 2023

40 Comments / By / 03/24/2023

Are you an SEO beginner?

No worries!

In this video, I'm going to walk you through the core pillars of every successful SEO campaign.

But the first question is:

What is SEO?

It's an acronym for "Search Engine Optimization."

And it's the process of ranking web pages on the first page of Google's organic search results.

This process of SEO has four core pillars of success:

1. KEYWORDS

Keywords are the foundation of every successful SEO campaign. In fact, understanding how to pick the right keywords will make or break your campaign.

I'll show you how to pick the right keywords for your business and your unique situation in the video.

Once you've found keywords, you need to optimize your site's technical performance.

In-depth keyword research training ➡️

2. TECHNICAL

Please don't fear the word "technical" because it's pretty easy once you understand what to look for. The goal of optimizing technical performance is twofold:

First, we want Google to be able to crawl and index our pages in an efficient manner.

Second, we want our site to have a tremendous User Experience (UX).

I'll show you what to look for and how to optimize both elements in the video.

Once you've found keywords and optimized for UX, it's time for the most important part:

3. CONTENT

Think of content as the lead domino for SEO success. You should invest most of your time in optimizing and creating new SEO-driven content.

Here's the key:

You should always optimize BEFORE you create.

I'll explain why in the video.

And last, but not least:

4. BACKLINKS

You can nail all previous pillars like a pro, but without backlinks, you'll struggle. What are backlinks? They are links from other websites and Google considers them as "votes."

In theory, the more high-quality votes your page has, the more Google will trust it.

What does a high-quality backlink look like? Watch the video to find out 🙂

  17. Radzy

    I’m a complete beginner and this video was by far the most valuable, and well explained out of all. Thank you for sharing these tips

  20. Laura F.E

    Thanks for this video! A while back I started a website, but completely neglected SEO as I spent all my energy on Pinterest! Big mistake. I’m now having to go back through all blog posts and optimise them for SEO. I used to try and target keyw that I realistically had no chance of ranking for (my DA is currently 14). SEO is everything, especially as social media platforms are forever bringing out new algorithms.

  21. Grow with Will - SEO, Sales & Entrepreneurship

    Love the tip on prioritizing the “low hanging fruit” keywords! These are worth focusing on and they will really do help boost your organic search traffic!

  22. Ryan Mason

    Brilliant content!! I run a cleaning business that covers a large area. Am I better having a individual website with a specific domain and a good domain authority for each area or individual pages covering the areas on one website? (then that page might rank when area is searched) Hope that makes sense !

  23. sam k

    Hey Nathan, Thanks for sharing the information. I am completely new to this so all this stuff sounds scary but adventurous too on a same time.
    Just one question at 10:43 in a video you mentioned to achieve optimal technical SEO Performance for website we should optimize site architecture and pages shouldn’t be more than 3 clicks deep in the architecture. what do you actually mean by pages shouldn’t be more than 3 clicks deep in the architecture, is it some kind of techinical language or internal linking shouldnt be at the bottom etc. Please explain. Cheers.

    3 clicks deep mean a page is accessible after three links, like having Services in the website’s main menu, then comes Digital Marketing, then Google Ads, and then Display Ads or maybe Search Ads. Now, these Display Ads or Search Ads are more than three levels deep; crawlers usually only crawl pages with three depth levels.
