SEO For Beginners: 3 Powerful SEO Tips to Rank #1 on Google in 2019
Are you new to SEO and want to rank #1 on google this upcoming year? Here are 3 SEO strategies that will boost your rankings!
#1: Focus on content
Google has this update called Hummingbird, and with Hummingbird, websites who just have content on everything won’t do as well as sites which focus on one single niche and are super thorough.
You want to be VERY thorough with your SEO content. Poke holes in your content and fill them all up, so then that way people are like, “This is the end all site “that you should end up reading “if you’re interested in dating online.”
#2: Optimize your title tag and your meta description
Have you ever done a Google search, and noticed that every time you do it, there is this link at the top, and then there’s this one sentence with a link at the top is called the title tag.
And the description below is called the meta description.
Now think of it this way, if you search for the phrase online dating, and you don’t see the word online dating in neither the title or the description, are you going to click on the result?
Well if you are, there’s something wrong, because why would you click on a result that isn’t related to what you’re looking for?
In addition to that, have you ever searched for a term like online dating? And have you ever noticed that the word isn’t in the title or description?
That’s because Google tracks who’s clicking on what listing, and they’ve learned that when a keyword is in the listing, that same keyword that you’re searching for, they know you’re way more likely to click through.
So in your title tag and your meta description, make sure you include the keyword. But you can’t just add the keyword, “online dating,” right?
The easiest way and what I would do and I wish it was this simple; I will just put “online dating, online dating, online dating, online dating.”
If I could put it 20 times so people would know that the article is on online dating, I wish I would get more clicks.
But it’s not that simple.
Yes you have to include the keyword in your title and your description, but it has to be appealing. If it doesn’t flow in a sentence, it’s not easy to read, and it’s not appealing or evoking curiosity, no one is gonna click through.
#3: Use Google Search Console
Did you know that Google gives you a tool that teaches you how to rank number one on Google?
Yes I know that sounds ridiculous but it is true, and it’s called Google Search Console.
If you’re not already a user of it, sign up.
It doesn’t cost a dollar. You’re missing out if you’re not using it.
I can’t emphasize that enough. So now that you’re using Google Search Console…give it a few days because it takes some time to populate data. You’ll see a screen that shows Search Analytics and this shows you all the pages on your website that are getting you traffic. But the cool thing about Google Search Console is they also show you which articles are getting impressions.
Take all the keywords you’re getting impressions for and start adding them to your copy.
Now we have an article on Instagram, and it teaches you how to get over 300 targeted Instagram followers per day.
The article is around 10,000 words. When I first wrote that article, it wasn’t 10,000 words, it was roughly 2,500.
I went to Google Search Console, I saw all the people that are searching for terms related to the article, I added them within that article. I made it more thorough and you know what?
My SEO traffic more than tripled to that article. Yes it is that simple. And when I made that change, it didn’t happen right away, but I noticed the results within 50 days. That’s not a long time.
Now that you’ve learned these three tips, I challenge you in which I want you to take these tactics and implement them, and then after you implement them, in the next 45 days I want you to leave a comment with your results. Because if you’re not doing well, that means I’m not happy.

Brandon Turner from Bigger Pockets video: Calculating Numbers on a Rental Property [Using The Four Square Method!]
This is probably THE MOST important step anytime you’re looking for an investment…this one single calculation tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about the property….it’s going to tell you how much money you’re going to make, it’ll tell you how much a property is worth, and it’ll tell you how much you should offer on the property to get your ideal ROI.
Anytime you’re evaluating a property, you’re going to have to calculate the GROSS INCOME. This is the TOTAL amount of income the property will be generating, BEFORE expenses.
In addition to rents, it’s important to calculate any other income that property generates.
For example, I’ve seen some properties that have laundry unit income
I’ve seen some that charge separately for storage.
Some that charge separately for parking.
Now we need to go to the next step: EXPENSES.
Anytime you own a property, you’re going to have FIXED EXPENSES NO MATTER WHAT – this means that even if you bought the property outright IN CASH, NO MORTGAGE, you’re still going to have these expenses…they’re fixed, and there’s no way around it.
These expenses include:
Property taxes – that’s unavoidable
Insurance – you better have insurance
If there’s an HOA – I don’t like HOA’s
If you pay utilities for the tenants – make sure they save water
Normal upkeep – like a gardener, pest control, etc.
Repairs that need to be done
If there’s any management fee
And vacancy when inevitably a tenant will move out and you’ll be missing out on that rental income
After that – we’ll need to calculate our NET RENTAL INCOME. Subtract EXPENSES by GROSS INCOME and this is your net income. From this, your can calculate your CAP RATE:
Divide the NET rental income by the purchase price, then multiply that by 100, and what you have left over is your percentage return.
Next, we need to calculate the Mortgage Payment. Use http://www.MortgageCalculator.org to calculate your mortgage payment.
From there, subtract your mortgage payment from the NET RENTAL INCOME and that is your return!
But then we also have the RETURN ON EQUITY. Remember, every month you pay down your mortgage, part of that payment is interest on your loan balance, the other part is EQUITY towards paying down the loan…because remember, after 30 years, you’ll have no more mortgage and you’re owning this out right. So every month that goes by gets you closer to that goal.
In order to calculate how much equity you’re paying down, lets go back to MortgageCalculator.org, look under “calculate” where it says “show amortization schedule.” Then click “show annual amortization.” Then hit calculate.
So now, we add this back into our income, and that becomes your TOTAL ROI.
And that’s exactly how I calculate the cashflow of a property. With this entire formula, you can pretty much just plug in your own numbers and spit out the expected return!n!

First expectation: Real estate investing is passive.
The reality is that creating the type of rental property to the point where it’s passive income takes a LOT of work. But the work is, at times, still ongoing. Eventually you’ll have a vacancy. Eventually you’ll need to fix things up again. Nothing will last forever. Sure, you can get a property manager who’ll handle much of this for you – but you will need to do SOME work yourself, even if it’s as small as choosing between finishes or approving bids on work. It won’t be an insane amount of work, but it will be something. So yes, real estate CAN be fairly passive…but it’s not passive if you don’t put in the work UPFRONT.
Second Expectation: In order to invest in real estate, you need to do the repairs yourself or be a good handyman.
The reality is that I can’t do anything besides change a lightbulb. While I do know some landlords who do the work themselves to save the money, this is absolutely not a requirement – and depending on how much your time is worth, it’s often cheaper just to pay someone else to do it the right way. It’s also worth noting that since all these repairs are a write off, you can write off the costs against your income…but, if you do the work YOURSELF, you cannot deduct the cost of YOUR OWN LABOR.
Third Expectation: It takes a lot of money to start.
The reality is that it often takes 10%-25% down to begin investing in real estate. This COULD be a lot depending on your definition of “ a lot,” and also on your area. Buying a property in Los Angeles would be significantly more expensive than in Kentucky, for instance. Where one person might be able to buy a property for ,000 down, someone else might need 0,000.
Fourth Expectation is that it’s often like the TV shows.
The Reality is that it’s NOTHING like what they portray on TV. Oftentimes those TV shows will be loosely scripted around creating drama and creating a show that’s actually interesting enough to watch all the way through. Every episode needs a goal, a problem that arises, a solution to that problem, and then a resolution at the end. The real life problems that come up just aren’t that exciting or interesting. It’s often boring and mundane.
The fifth expectation is that you’ll make a lot of money investing in real estate.
The reality is that oftentimes one property won’t make you rich. Most mom and pop landlords won’t make a lot early on, but as they scale up, they can earn a significant amount of money from a lot of smaller sources. This is how many landlords start making money, enough to quit their jobs and invest in real estate full time. It’s growing your portfolio over one or two DECADES and accumulating those properties that might make you only 0 a month….but buy one of those every 18 months, and in 15 years you’re making 00 per MONTH. That’s how most landlords make their money, and make a LOT of it. But the beginning will be slow and frustrating until you begin adding more and more to your portfolio.
