Website SEO Basics – How to Rank on Google Without the Tech Overwhelm

March 24, 2025 by Dixie

How to Get Found Online (Without Losing Your Mind)

Let’s be real—SEO (search engine optimization) sounds way more complicated than it actually is. 🤯 If you’ve ever Googled “how to rank on Google” and immediately regretted it, you’re not alone.

The good news? You don’t need to be a tech genius to make your website easier to find. In fact, just focusing on consistency can take you further than trying to “hack the algorithm.” 🚀


📌 1. Your Titles & Descriptions Matter More Than You Think

➡ Make them clear, readable, and natural. No weird keyword stuffing like:
🛑 “Best Website SEO WordPress Marketing Business Growth Services 2025.” (Google sees through that. 🙅‍♀️)

➡ Think like a human. What would you click on? Something that feels natural and actually tells you what’s on the page.


🔎 2. Answer Real Questions

Google loves websites that give people the answers they’re looking for. So instead of guessing, think about what your ideal clients ask you all the time.

💡 Now, go write a blog post that actually answers one of those questions. Boom. SEO magic.


🔗 3. Internal Links = Free SEO Boost

Want Google to understand your website better? Link between your own pages.

If you’re talking about domain names, link to your hosting services. If you mention branding, link to a blog post about choosing a color palette. This helps search engines (and visitors) navigate your site easily.


📌 4. Consistency Beats Perfection

SEO isn’t about getting one blog post to go viral overnight. It’s about showing up consistently so Google sees your site as a reliable source of info. 🔥

✅ Post weekly, not randomly! – Posting once a week 📆 is way better than posting five times in one month and then disappearing for six. 🚀
✅ Refresh old content! – Updating older blog posts 📝 keeps things fresh and helps rankings. Google loves updated info! 🔄
✅ Make small but mighty improvements! – Even tiny tweaks—like improving site speed ⚡—can make a BIG difference over time.


📱 5. Mobile-Friendliness & Speed Matter More Than You Think

Most people will visit your site on their phone 📲—so if it’s slow or weirdly formatted, they’re clicking away.

✅ Use a clean, responsive design (WordPress makes this easy).
✅ Optimize images so they don’t slow down load time.
✅ Choose good hosting (ahem, I’ve got you covered) to keep your site running fast.


🔑 Bottom Line?

SEO rewards the ones who show up! Keep it simple, keep it steady, and you’ll start seeing results. 📈✨ Need help making your site more Google-friendly? Book a free 30-minute SEO review with me, and I’ll help you get on track!
