SEO
Search engine optimization is key for getting a website off the ground and flying towards your goals. You’ll want to title tags, use internal links, and write a blog using keywords that attract new users to your site. One should not overdo it and just spam their material throughout their blog or hyperlink everything to their site but sprinkle in the keywords gently lure in prospects.
Remember, once users are on your site, they typically have just an 8-second attention span, so be sure to use an attractive easy-to-use layout that’s minimal to keep prospects interested and clicking around.
Analytics
Website analytics, which is included with building your website on MyDev.com will tell you how well your site is performing. One may think that Google Analytics is the best at showing this, but MyDev’s analytics shows a good amount of information as well. Be sure to see who’s visiting the site, from which region of the world, and what age group and gender they belong to. If you’re looking for third party analytics besides Google and MyDev, consider Heap, Simple Analytics, or SEMrush.
Keep it Clean & Minimal
