Stealth SEO; New SEO Techniques For 2013

Posted on Jan 24 2013 - 3:45pm by maddy acca

There are a few SEO techniques that every Search Engine Optimizer uses like keyword density, link exchange etc. These were undoubtedly effective but the scenario has changed. These will no longer work in the future.

Google is bent on providing its users the best quality and most relevant content. Not only that, the search engine wishes to get the rest of 30% traffic from other search engines like Yahoo, Bing etc. as well.

This demands Google to pick out the content that has high quality without being manipulated in any way by the SEOs and webmasters. Google has found a way to achieve it in the form of ‘search engine signals’.

Resultantly, many bloggers and SEO professionals are facing a hard time in using the same traditional tactics to get their pages rank high in the search results.

New SEO Techniques For 2013

Previously i have discussed top 10 SEO tips for 2013 in detail and now the best way is to keep it focused and simple. Create good quality content and leave the rest on your readers. They will naturally share links, vote and recommend your post if it is interesting enough.

This technique is particularly referred to as “Stealth SEO” where high quality content is provided to make users like it without following any age old methods.

Thus, you would not be SEO optimizing your page rather you will utilize an indirect method to get a higher rank on Search Engine Results Pages.

Stealth SEO Techniques

For 2013, the new SEO techniques come down to just a few points to keep in mind:

1. High quality and to the point content

2. The status of the content author on Google

3. Getting links is still in the list of areas to cover however, they must be strictly earned.

4. More the time you spend, the better your blog gets.

5. Utilize social media sites for sharing such as tweets or stumbles.

6. Website authority.

“Bounce Rate” does not directly affect the rank of the webpage.

That is, if a reader visits your page through a search, stays for around 20 minutes and hits the back button then your individual page rank would not be affected. Your general site authority might face some consequential affects.

1. Stealth SEO offers a democratic way of deciding which webpage deserves to stay on a higher rank on results’ page since the users are the ones to make the page more likable bringing in more traffic.

2. It aids to avoid the content that has used traditional rules for Search Engine Optimizationextensively to an abusive limit.

It’s never too late, not with Google at least

Google has still yet to incorporate ranking signals fully to its algorithms so there is still time to start working on Stealth SEO.

It’s high time to shift to Stealth SEO from the traditional SEO techniques to save your page from any further changes that might occur in the coming time.
