 How To Rank High On Search Engines In 2022

If you've ever had an online store or content that needs to reach a large mass of people or at the very least your target audience. You know the importance of ranking high on Search engines.

A search engine is a program that searches for and identifies items in a database that correspond to keywords or characters specified by the user. Specifically for finding sites on the world wide web.

 Examples of search engines are Google, Bing, YouTube, Yahoo, Baidu, AOL, Ask, duck duck go and so many more. Search engines exist to discover, understand and organize internet content in order to offer the most relevant answers for users.

In order to rank on search engines, your content must show up or be found on the internet. Search engines will find websites by:

• Ranking
• Crawling
• Indexing

Ranking

When someone performs a search, search engines look through their index for relevant content and provide the content hoping to solve a query. The more times content relates to a query the more likely it will be ordered as being most relevant to the query. You will notice that your website isn't ranking or is invisible when search engine crawlers are blocked from your website, so make sure your website is indexable and accessible to crawlers.

Crawling

Crawling and indexing is how search engines find up-to-date content on your site and index it for future queries. One way to know if search engines are finding your website is by going to the search engine website and typing site:enteryourdomainhere.com into the search bar. This search will return results that the search engine has in its index for the site specified. If anything, other than your website turns up in the results your website cannot be found, enable search engine crawlers to make sure you are visible on the internet.

Indexing

Search engines process and store information found in an index. This is a huge database of content discovered and determined to be good to serve searchers.
