1 – Leave the water behind

Water is essential for all life, but just one gallon weighs 8 pounds. If we plan to go out in nature, we don’t have to bring store-bought bottled water with us. Where do you think clean, fresh bottled water comes from? It comes from wild springs and clean mountain streams. If we are in an area with abundant fresh water, we can ditch bottled water and save several pounds. You may not be sure if the water is drinkable in the area you are walking, but you know there is water in the area. Bring a water pump or water purifier that you can easily pick up at your local outdoor store, and it weighs much less than a gallon of water. Using snow as water is another easy technique. You can collect snow in your kitchen and melt it to make drinking water. If you are going to use this technique, you need to make sure you have enough water to cover the bottom of the stove or you will burn the snow and the stove.

2 – Leave food behind

Another essential element for life is food! Once again, a good understanding of the area you are in will make all the difference. Every time I go out, I make a few meals and plan on catching or harvesting some along the way. Packing Mountain House meals can also add up very quickly. A mountain house can weigh nearly 6 ounces. If you eat three meals a day during a weekend camping trip, that can add up to almost 3 pounds of food! Catching fish, catching wildlife, or harvesting berries/nuts can be very useful. Study your map for good fishing spots. A simple $30 rod and reel can catch more than enough fish to keep your appetite going. Study the local plants in the area and determine which ones are edible and which ones are in season. Eating what mother nature offers makes us feel amazing and one with nature.

3 – Leave the shelter behind

The last of the BIG 3 essentials to sustain life is a shelter. Depending on the quality and material of the tent you own, it could weigh up to 5 pounds! I have personally seen people walk around in 8, 6 and 4 person tents and only sleep 1 or 2 people in the tent. All that extra store is just pounds for you to carry. Maybe you have a state-of-the-art, $600 tent for a two-pound person, right? Start thinking of some options to get rid of that expensive tent. An item like a Bivy Sack, is a good alternative to tents and still provides shelter, but with almost no weight. If you’re really getting adventurous, bring a tarp or hammock to hang from tree to tree. If we want to bring out our inner Mick Dodge, and the area allows it, we can make our own forest shelter. This can be a lot of fun if you have kids, they will really get into making a fort/shelter for the night. But remember to break it afterwards, so as not to leave a trace.

4 – Leave the kitchen stove behind

A kitchen stove is an item that I love to carry around, but it can be completely obsolete if it is allowed to have a fire. You need to check the area we are camping in first. We may need a stove to cook our fish or boil water, if campfires are not allowed. Some people don’t mind a hot meal before bed, and living off a trail mix and beef jerky for a weekend should be an easy alternative. For most of us, the camping stove is an important part of making the outdoors comfortable. If you’re like me and need that hot meal before the lights go out, start practicing cooking over an open flame. Making a fire suitable for cooking and placing a simple pan can make a difference. The pan you bring may not weigh much more than a camp stove, but it may be lighter than several cans of fuel. Put your items on a scale and see what works best for you. Since I don’t mind carrying a little extra weight, my camp stove always comes. Most of the time I cook my main meal (fish, meat) over the fire and cook a side dish (rice, vegetables) on my stove at the same time. Decide and practice what works best for you.

5 – Leave the sleeping bag behind

Unless it’s consistently hot day and night where you’re camping, you probably won’t leave your sleeping bag at home. Sleeping bags can weigh between 3 and 5 pounds, depending on the design of the bag. You can buy a very light sleeping bag suitable for the area where you are going to camp. If you’re out in the desert, where it’s 90 degrees during the day and 40 at night, a good ground pad, goose down pants, and a jacket may be good enough to act as a sleeping bag. Carrying a thin sheet could also be enough to keep you warm and very easy to fold and pack. I highly recommend religiously studying night temperatures before leaving your sleeping bag at home.

6 – Leave the ground platform behind

The ground pad keeps us warm, clean and comfortable on those long nights camping, but it’s not necessary either. Picking up leaves, moss, or finding soft ground can be more comfortable than the most expensive ground pad on the market. Every time I put up my tent or ground platform, I add a bit of cushion under the ground platform.

7 – Leave the trekking poles behind

I don’t recommend leaving your trekking poles behind if the hike is long, you gain a lot of elevation, or you’re not a very skilled hiker. Trekking poles can prevent injuries and allow a hiker to maintain endurance in the test. If it’s a short weekend hike or you feel strong enough, leave the poles behind.

8 – Leave the bear’s boat behind:

Some areas may require you to have a bear boat, and in that case we’re out of luck if we want to leave it behind. Other areas may allow you to set up a counterweight. In most cases, simply carrying a bear boat is easier than trying to set up a counterweight 15 feet high and 10 feet from the tree. This item is not at the top of my list of items to leave behind.

9 – Leave the batteries behind

We may not have to leave all of our batteries behind, but you can leave most of them behind. Too many times I’ve seen someone pull a brand new, unopened pack of ten batteries out of their bag. It’s just useless and unnecessary weight. Why not take 2-4 extra batteries along for the ride? If it is a long trip, using a solar panel will also help us get rid of the weight of the battery.

10 – Leave the clothes behind

I’m not saying go nudist and hike in nature, but I’m trying to get you thinking about the unnecessary clothes and boots you might pack at camp. Most places in the summer months do not require jackets or heavy pants. Study weather conditions and elevation to determine what you need to bring. Ditch those heavy old hiking boots and try walking in lighter, more agile trail running shoes. Your legs and back will thank you later.

conclusion

Now some of you may disagree with my list of essentials, but that’s good. Remember this is just a guide to help us all get out more often and with a lighter pack. If our backpack is lighter and the hike is more enjoyable, we are more likely to return. Take this guide and make one of your own. No one but yourself can tell you what you can and cannot comfortably wear. We can bring it all if it makes us happy!

Perhaps an employer is interested in how you think. How you highlight and express your skills and talents. A crafted cover letter acts as a bridge between what an employer is looking for and her skill set.

In a cover letter, you should address the keywords in the job description. It’s impossible to have a single cover letter to apply for all jobs these days. Instead, you should tailor a cover letter to show the skills that are applicable to the job you’re applying for just like you do when you customize your resume to fit a different job.

You need to be selective and target an audience by including keywords and phrases that match what an employer is looking for. Say, for example, you were applying for jobs in auditing, accounting, sales, and marketing, the keywords you would focus on on your resume would have to do with financial skills and marketing experience. He wouldn’t highlight his skills as a sniper even if he worked part-time as an instructor in a field he’s not applying for.

Your cover letter should focus on specific skills. It is not up to the employer to define who you are based on your many talents to determine if you are “fit” for a position. Instead, you should select and highlight the skills that demonstrate your ability to do the job and present your qualifications in a well-defined and organized cover letter.

There was a time when college graduates literally put all of their skills on a resume and hoped the employer would create a job for them. The trends are different today. You’re expected to do the hard work of deciding what kind of job you want and present your skills in a finely honed cover letter and resume that speaks to what you want to do. The qualifications an employer is looking for are usually written in the job description of the ad. While the cover letter doesn’t regurgitate all of the information on your resume, it does summarize your most relevant experiences, skills, and characteristics of the job and highlights examples from your background that support these experiences. While it is true that sometimes when you are hired for a particular job, you may find that the job is something different than the job description. However, an employer expects a resume that fits the job.

Here are some techniques for creating a variety of powerful cover letters that are tailored to unique situations. For example:

• Develop social media job search skills that will pay off for years to come. If you play your cards right! When you learn how to create animated networking letters and thank you notes to build and maintain a positive list of contacts, you’ll be able to take advantage of this information when searching for job opportunities. This is accomplished by joining online social networks, engaging people in networking events, and building a brilliant contact list of family members, associations, colleagues, discussion groups, supervisors, and leaders in your field.

• Discover Sales and Marketing secrets to speed up the time it takes to land interviews by polishing a targeted resume and follow-up letter. A LinkedIn profile, for example, is a combination of a sales letter and a bio that also features your image.

• Tailor special situation letters to handle job gaps, name removal, and application letters, as well as recommendation, personal statements, and job proposal letters.

• Tell your story in a carefully crafted, animated profile that can be modified to add excitement to a Google, LinkedIn, or Twitter bio, as well as many other social networking sites. The bio showcases and markets your skills, knowledge, and abilities to get jobs or promote your products.

• On LinkedIn, for example, it’s nice to have recommendations from others who have provided glowing recommendations that showcase your work as a professional. Commenting on others’ blogs, joining and participating in groups that discuss topics related to your work is a great way to develop contacts and improve your credibility.

• As a bonus, you can start your own group to increase your reputation as an expert in your field. Create a profile that highlights your accomplishments, provide talking points and opinions, and ask others to contribute. Answer questions and provide your own opinions on different topics. Type the words Meet Up as well as the area where you live into the address bar of a search engine like Google to generate a list of groups you can join to build or share skills.

Strategies for Writing Exceptional Cover Letters

• Use transferable skills that can be transferred from one setting to another, such as leadership, coaching, communication, and conflict resolution skills.

• Match your stationery to your resume if you are mailing it. You can create a format that is the same as the format of your resume.

• Write the name, address and zip code of the person you are addressing the letter to. Try to find the name of a contact’s hiring manager who works at the organization you’d like to work for. Do not use Dear Sir or Madam.

• Write the cover letter in 10 to 12 point font and keep it to four or five paragraphs.

• Do not lie or exaggerate because what you say may be disputed in your interview.

• Avoid negative and controversial information

• Don’t use too many “I’s” in your cover letter.

• Discuss your job-related skills, such as working with people, data, ideas, and things.

Countless media outlets highlight what is bad, amoral and ugly about Nigeria, leaving the good behind. As a Nigerian now living in the west, I know how to take everything I see on the news about my country with a grain of salt. I turn on the news, and almost every headline I read about Nigeria goes along the lines of “Nigeria in crisis”, “Hundreds dead in Nigeria”, “Terror in Nigeria”, and the long list of ugly and depressing headlines goes on. However, the media does not celebrate people who strive to change the country; people who believe in their home and are willing to glorify it at all costs.

Nigeria as a country is far from its negative illustrations, and before reading this, you must believe that too. Although I can’t deny that, to some extent, Nigeria really isn’t among the safest places to live. In fact, why would I leave home and move west if it was so safe, beautiful, and generally positive? The truth is, just like any other country (but mostly developing countries), the people are tired of their corrupt leaders and have decided to take matters of survival into their own hands. People have chosen to step outside the ethical norms of life in society and have started doing anything to survive, including crime… corruption, disregard for human rights, child labor and much more. Therefore, I cannot sit here and deny the fact that Nigeria is indeed a land that spawns a lot of crimes and inhumane actions. But it is home; home for me; home for so many other people who are born into that survival system; home for people who have no choice but to live a broken lifestyle; home for people who have no choice but to survive.

So even if I sit in my plush chairs and type freely and safely on my laptop in public, without any immediate fear for my general safety while sipping a pretentious but delicious drink from Starbucks out west, I can’t help but long for my home. in the East. I miss my family and hope that one day Nigeria will truly become a safe haven for all the people who have left. It is in my moments of caring for my country that I came across the amazing work of Devesh Uba (also known as Snap It Oga). In the last year, his name has spread on all social networks. From Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr, he is everywhere and more importantly, he is everywhere due to the nature of the photographs of him.

In 2013, Uba, a street photographer from India, ignored the many negative labels often placed on Nigeria by the propaganda media, especially in its commercial capital, Lagos. This city is widely known as the second fastest growing city in Africa and is undoubtedly rich in diversity, culture, vibrancy, tourism as well as extreme population. Uba ventured from his hometown in India to the vibrant city life of Lagos, armed with no fear of all the negative information he had heard about the country, he traveled to the city on his own to work and live for a year.

“Before moving here, I spent a lot of time researching Lagos and Nigeria, only to be discouraged when I couldn’t find any positive stories or images. However, when I finally arrived and started spending more time in the city, I realized that there were several positive things about culture that most of the media conveniently ignores. There is art almost everywhere…in Danfos, on the streets, on shop signs, on school walls, etc. The people of Lagos “rushes” and does it with enthusiasm. he smiles. The colors of the markets are so vibrant and the ‘never say die’ spirit of the people here is so inspiring. The Nigerian love for food, football and music is just contagious,” Uba opens up about his immediate perception of the city. he lives in Lagos in a special interview for Spirited Pursuit (SP), a blog and social media hub for traveling photographers.

With this general surprise of how different Nigerians looked in person, Uba launched his well-known brand called Snap It Oga. However, he also states in his interview with SP that this name was not his creation, but “the first people I photographed in Lagos would say ‘Grab it, Oga!’ when I was looking at them through my camera viewfinder, the name just stuck, so I just kept going,” he explains. And for many Nigerians reading this, we can all agree that Snap It Oga is truly amazingly Nigerian and an invitation to the way its people are, as ‘Snap’ is a slang term listen)) to ‘take the picture’ and ‘Oga’ is usually a name given to a foreigner, or anyone considered superior in Nigeria.

Apart from Lagos state, Uba has traveled almost everywhere in Nigeria, from east to west, and his reactions to the disparity between the people he knows and the people he hears about in the media seem to grow with each passing day in the streets capturing photographs. It is because of this difference in illustrations of the types of people who live in the country that inspired Uba to launch Snap It Oga, a blog space where he catalogs all the photographs he captures and shares them on his various social media accounts and his friends. followers, without any media filter.

In my opinion, Uba has the correct formula. Experiencing Nigeria and its people should be subjective, real and free from judgement. I am not saying that there is nothing true in Nigeria that you see in the media, all I am saying is that, like all countries, Nigeria is made up of people, and it is these people who define the country. It is unfortunate that we have let our perceptions of Nigeria be shaped by a select few bad people, while ignoring the majority of great and genuinely kind Nigerians. Uba also resonates with this, as he states in his SP article: “One of my worst memories as a photographer in Lagos was in the streets of Ajegunle when I was there to capture street art. The roads were pretty bad so our car pulled over. stuck in a pothole. Out of nowhere the ‘area guys’ surrounded us and started banging on the car glass hysterically. Somehow my driver was able to calm them down by telling them his brother lives down the street and has a salon at the local market. We were finally able to get some help from some nice people who stopped by after all the chaos was over. I can’t lie though, that was the most awkward 20-25 minutes of my life. Despite this negative experience I have had many great and positive experiences here in Lagos that outweigh the bad ones.”

So even if danger is all that comes to mind when you hear or think of Nigeria, don’t let that deter you from the opportunity to visit one of Africa’s most culturally diverse and successful nations. Nigeria is made up of a deep-rooted tradition and culturally rich elements that will surprise and excite all enthusiastic and non-judgmental explorers who have the opportunity to visit its land. From the beautiful clear blue waters, incomparable ranches, incredible game reserves, hot springs, magnificent waterfalls, rich African history museums and much more, Nigeria has it all. So do yourself a favor, turn off the TV, plan that trip to Nigeria against all odds like Uba, and explore like never before.

Search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing allow us to easily analyze trends across geographic regions. Almost anything can be measured by how much you search online. You can find how much any term is searched for anywhere, at the country level, at the state level, and even by city.

For example, to determine in which US states there is high concern about Internet use problems, porn addiction, and general concern about exposure to questionable Internet content, we looked at where the most Internet use takes place. searches for terms like web filter and porn filter. The results are surprising

Where is the porn filter searched the most?

1.Utah

2. Louisiana

3.Kansas

4. Tennessee

5.Oklahoma

6.Kentucky

7.Alabama

8. Oregon

9.Washington

10.Colorado

Utah, while certainly not the most populous state, leads the charts with twice as many searches, followed by Louisiana. We can’t begin to reasonably infer why these particular states lead in the number of porn filter searches; it could be that there is a problem with porn addiction, it could be a heightened level of awareness about the internet porn problem, or myriad other reasons.

Unfortunately, we can see another interesting phenomenon in the United States. While the trend of looking for porn filters seems to be on the wane, there is a steady increase over the years for porn searches. Make your own conclusions. But we should all be aware and concerned.

The Marathon Gas Card, credit cards and gift cards make shopping and fueling easy. If you have a gas card, you can use it directly at the pumps to avoid waiting in line at the register.

Establishing an effective digital marketing strategy is essential before you even think about the money you need to spend.

Benefits of designing an effective digital marketing strategy
Today, digital growth demands multi-channel marketing campaigns. Having a clear marketing strategy helps you get a sense of how your multiple marketing channels relate to each other. Using the right strategy will ensure that everything runs smoothly, whether it’s paid digital ads or content marketing.

A good marketing strategy is crucial when it comes to determining how much you should spend on your marketing campaigns. It allows you to determine how to allocate budgets and costs by milestones.

An effective digital marketing strategy will help you identify where your potential customers are and how you can reach them. Different audiences require a certain strategy to engage them. For example, you might consider using a social media campaign for a certain audience, while others are more likely to engage with a compelling PPC campaign.

I understand that different digital marketing strategists and agencies use their own proven marketing strategy. Below, I’ve outlined 5 tactics that will help you design an outstanding marketing strategy process.

I have used these tactics to understand the needs of my clients and identify effective tactics that I often use to create successful marketing campaigns for their business.

1. Start of the project
As a professional digital marketer, I understand that identifying goals and objectives is the first step to a successful marketing campaign. Knowing a few facts about my clients helps me create a consistent project schedule as well as a project brief.

The startup phase is critical, whether you’re a new brand looking for the best place to start or an existing business looking for effective ways to maintain and improve your customer base.

Note that its start will help you to have a clear understanding of the overall project.

2. Research and market analysis
Conducting research and analysis is essential to determine the cultural and market trends that are linked to the brand and customers. At this stage, you should typically audit the industry and assess its characteristics and landscape.

By doing this, you will easily determine your target audience and have a clear understanding of what they want. In addition, it helps you devise a strategic process that reveals what your customers really need from your company or brand.

3. Engagement phase
The third stage is the participation process. In this period, you need to determine how you can best interact, engage, connect and communicate with the right audience at the right time, using the best tactics.

I often take advantage of key performance indicators that show me if the company will get more customers when it implements certain tactics. Yes, I can easily do that because, at this point, I have gained a deep understanding of the industry and goals.

I write compelling content that is dedicated and tailored to address the specific needs of the audience during the engagement phase.

4. Effective Concept Development
Now, we move on to the stage of actual concept development, after laying the proper groundwork in the early stages. Go ahead and develop campaign creatives for your digital marketing project.

The individual needs of your clients, the ultimate goals of your brand, as well as each and every creative piece, come first. This way you can easily execute effective tactics that serve the purpose and needs of your customers.

5. Execution Plan
It is recommended that you create an effective action plan to execute your ideas during this stage. Update an effective strategy when it comes to new and existing brands.

You must present a schedule for the execution of all initiatives, develop effective media plans and make recommendations for budget allocation.

Implementing effective marketing tactics for your business
Your business needs an effective marketing strategy to thrive online. Otherwise, you will face unbridled competition from your competitors. There is a good chance that your business will be successful and dominate your online industry if you have put in place a well thought out marketing strategy to meet your business goals and objectives.

I have been overwhelmed by the number of SEO tools available online, and several are offered absolutely free! To generate the best options, here is a detailed list of the best free SEO tools. These types of SEO tools are intended for a number of purposes, but are nonetheless necessary throughout the optimization process.

1.Google Analytics/Google Webmaster Console

One of the most popular free search engine optimization tools, Google Analytics provides comprehensive information and detailed reports about your site. These reports include your site traffic behavior, funnel data, and content hits, among others.

Analytics can also be considered one more such website promotion tool. It allows you to see which elements of your site are generating clicks and leads, along with the parts to operate to improve website promotion. Tools like the Google Webmaster Console offer similar information, including crawl speed, crawl rate, and how Google “sees” your backlinks and the like.

2.AddMe.com

AddMe, a search engine syndication program, is among the many free tools that submit your URL to search engines to ensure that online users can find you online.

It’s perfectly fine to get listed in the major search engines, including Google, Yahoo, and Bing. However, if you prefer a broader online audience, use this internet search engine submission tool.

One advantage of AddMe is the fact that it submits websites to twenty different search engines. With such free tools, you don’t need to go to every end of every search engine to improve your web presence.

After the search engine submission tool submits your site’s keywords, description, and URL, you’ll start receiving website traffic. Just remember that it can take time for all those search engines to include your website in their listings.

3. Firefox using the web developer extension

Firefox is an extremely flexible Internet browser. It has useful and insightful extensions, including free SEO tools. The Internet Developer extension allows you to easily remove JavaScript components and cascading styles from a site. In addition, it allows you to take a look at the external links of a web page. Probably the biggest benefit of the extension is that you can add your own website promotion tools and other SEO apps to the menu.

4. Keyword Discovery

Another one of the many free SEO tools that makes keyword and market research simple, Keyword Discovery can generate keywords from top players that can help improve your site’s ranking. Simply enter an initial keyword into the tool’s search phrase suggestion tool, and you’ll also get comprehensive keyword data collected from over 180 search engines.

5. SEO for Firefox

Other free tools on the market cannot match the amount of information this Firefox tool provides. This system collects data about a particular page, along with information about a search engine.

Unlike most tools, SEO for Firefox allows you to export information directly from SERPs to CSV. In addition, the tool provides relevant information, including Google page rank, domain age, cache data, incoming links on Yahoo, number of cached pages, and number of .edu links, among others. .

6. Google Page Rank Checker

Google’s Page Rank Checker is among the free search engine optimization tools that can be useful to anyone who has a website. Rank a website according to how popular Google thinks it might be. The highest score is 10 and the lowest is one. Also, the ranking depends on the additional value of your links that contribute to your site. The higher the value of a link, the more effective the page rank of your site will be.

A combination of these free SEO and website promotion tools is a great idea, especially if you’re seriously interested in your small business and search engine optimization efforts. These power tools are free, so feel free to try them out.

There are two types of title insurance, lender’s coverage and owner’s coverage. Lender’s coverage protects the lender in the event his or her interest in the property is threatened by an unpaid lien or encumbrance or by a contested title to the owner. Lender coverage is required on most mortgage loans.

Owner’s title insurance is optional. Owner’s coverage is the cheapest insurance a buyer will ever buy. Protects the buyer’s interest in the property for as long as he owns it. If someone contests the buyer’s title or if there are liens that should have been discharged before closing, the title insurance company will defend the buyer’s title at no cost to the buyer.

Sometimes at closing, buyers will be tempted to opt out of buying the owner’s portion of the title to save a few hundred dollars. Many times, the loan officer or real estate agent will even encourage the buyer to forgo purchasing this vital lump sum insurance.

We’ve all heard the saying “penny wise and pound foolish.” It means that some people will do anything to save a few dollars today only to end up paying much more later. Any buyer who chooses not to purchase owner’s coverage is being both sensible and foolish. Owner’s coverage, unlike most other insurance, involves a single premium. The amount of the premium is based on the value of the property and may vary slightly between title companies. As mentioned above, the coverage is valid as long as the buyer owns the property.

Most title insurance companies have a simultaneous issue option. If a buyer chooses to purchase the insurance at closing, they will receive a discount on the lender’s policy. Therefore, buyers should be sure to ask the closing company or attorney what the simultaneous issuance rate is for the title insurance company through which they write their policies. Keep in mind that if a buyer decides not to purchase owner’s coverage, he or she will be required to pay the lender’s full policy premium.

Title insurance companies also offer reissue rates for refinances. Reissue rates allow the borrower to pay for coverage on the difference between the value of the lender’s original policy and the current loan amount.

Depending on the internal procedures of the title company or closing attorney, the buyer will receive their owner’s policy at the closing table or by US mail a few weeks after closing. The owner’s policy should be kept in a safe place along with the property deed, as it is the only original. In most states, attorneys and title companies are only required to keep records for seven to ten years. So if a problem arises years later, the attorney or title company may not have a copy of the title insurance policy because they may have already disposed of the closing file.

If a claim needs to be filed, the title insurance company contains the information needed to begin that process. Be prepared to provide the title company with a detailed explanation of the claim and any supporting documentation.

SEO affects every website online, and if you own an online business, you need SEO for your website.

SEO is short for “search engine optimization.” The SEO of a website helps determine how well it will rank in Google and other search engines. In a nutshell, how high up on the results page the link to your website will be displayed for a specific search term.

Does SEO really matter for your website?

The reason why SEO is important for your website is that good SEO leads to more traffic, which can turn into more sales, more email list subscribers, more ads clicked, etc.

SEO is more important for smaller websites as they probably don’t have as much of a budget to pay for advertising. Search engine traffic is completely free.

Two types of SEO

There are two main subdivisions or areas of SEO. These are On Page SEO and Off Page SEO. Both help you rank better in search engines. But other than that, they are quite different. You will need a combination of on-page and off-page SEO for your website to rank well.

What is on-page SEO?

On-page SEO relates to the steps you take on your website to optimize it for SEO. This includes:

• Delighted: All the content material you post on your website that includes the keywords that people will use to search for that content will strengthen your on-page SEO. Keywords tell search engines what your content is about, which will then boost your rankings.
• URL: When you include a keyword in your URL, you optimize the on-page SEO of your website.
• Photos: The images on your website have things called alt text, which is not visible to your website visitors. You can include keywords in the alt text that will be picked up by search engines.
• Website optimization: Your website hosting and design make a difference to your SEO. Make sure your website is mobile friendly and has a fast loading speed.

SEO off page

This involves a series of steps that can improve your website’s ranking without changing anything on the site itself. It is often called link building and is a method of creating links from other websites to your website.

Backlinks are a sign of the value of your website content. The key aspect is to retrieve quantity website links. Also, sharing links to your website from social media will increase your site’s ranking in search engines because search engines see social media links as backlinks.
