Session 3: SEO Signals by Sir Ammar

●​ Why SEO?
○​ SEO is essential for online visibility and success.
○​ Sir believes in the core concepts of SEO.
●​ Nice Research: "Why" should we do SEO?
○​ SEO requires valuable internet skills.

Two Main Areas in SEO:

1.​ Business (Blogging)


2.​ Job (Freelancing)​
We can pursue both simultaneously.​
Recommendation: Start 1-2 websites.

SEO as a Business

●​ SEO is a business that provides great ROI (Return on Investment).

Blogging Business and Niche Research:

●​ Blogging Business:
○​ Niche Research: It takes time but is important for long-term success.
○​ Site Development: Requires both investment of time and money.
○​ Off-page SEO: Creating backlinks.
○​ Ranking: Leads to profits.
○​ ROI: SEO provides one of the highest returns on investment.
●​ Important Note:
○​ Time Tracking: Keep track of how much time you spend daily.
○​ Financial Tracking: Note how much money you invest in creating and
maintaining the site.

SEO Example Using a Game Analogy:

1.​ Website Authority:


○​ Think of SEO as a game with two sides:
■​ One side is the website.
■​ The other side is the weight needed to rank the site.
○​ Ranking Signals add weight to the website’s authority.
○​ Ranking Signals include:
■​ Content: The better the content, the higher the weight.
■​ Speed: Page speed is a lighter signal but still matters.
■​ HTTPS: A necessary ranking signal.
■​ Backlinks: High-quality, powerful backlinks are heavy weight signals.
■​ Contextual Backlinks: Relevant backlinks.
○​ Example:
■​ If the content is great but the backlinks are not strong, you can still rank.
■​ If the content is weak but the backlinks are strong, you can still rank.
○​ Backlinks:
■​ A backlink is like a reference from another website.
■​ The stronger the backlinks, the better.

Business and Niche Research:

1.​ Difficulty:
○​ SEO difficulty consists of:
■​ EMDs (Exact Match Domain): Domains that exactly match the search
term.
■​ RDS (Referring Domain): Refers to the number of domains linking to
your site.
■​ Topical Authority: The more topics a website covers, the higher the
authority.
○​ Example:
■​ Facebook has high domain authority, but a niche website might rank
better by covering more specific topics.
○​ Referring Domains:
■​ A good SEO strategy requires one link from each referring domain.
■​ One domain providing multiple links still counts as just one referring
domain.
2.​ Profitability:
○​ Profitability depends on:
■​ Volume: Search volume and traffic potential.
■​ Country: Focus on foreign countries or English-speaking countries for
more opportunities.
○​ Focus: It’s important to focus on difficulty more than profitability in SEO.

Authority and Metrics:

●​ Authority:
○​ Google ranks pages based on authority.
○​ Ahrefs: Domain Rating (DR) measures referring domains.
○​ Moz: Domain Authority (DA).
●​ These metrics aren’t perfect, but they help estimate authority.

Final Advice:

●​ Focus on building authority through high-quality content, fast page speeds, relevant
backlinks, and covering the right topics.

Part 2.
Session 3: SEO Signals by Sir Ammar

●​ SEO, why and what for?


●​ Sir believes in SEO concepts.
●​ Nice research: "Why" do SEO?
●​ Skill: Internet skill.

Two things we can do with SEO:

1.​ Business (blogging)


2.​ Job (freelancing)
●​ We can do both.
●​ Everyone should start 1 or 2 websites.

SEO as a business:

●​ SEO is a business that gives a high ROI (Return on Investment).

Blogging Business:

1.​ Niche research takes time.


2.​ Site development requires investment + time.
3.​ Off-page SEO: Create links.
4.​ Rank your site to give profits.
●​ ROI = Return on investment (This is the highest here).
●​ Take your site as a business; daily time spent is important.

Time management:

●​ Note down the time spent and the money invested when creating a site.
Example of game:

1.​ Website on one side, ranking site weight on the other.


2.​ Ranking signals add weight to the site.
3.​ The heavier the content, the higher the rank.
4.​ Ranking signals:
○​ Content (better content = more weight).
○​ Quick Speed (a light signal).
○​ HTTPS.
○​ Backlinks (powerful, heavy weight).
○​ Contextual backlinks.

Backlink Example:

●​ A strong backlink means better ranking.


●​ For example, if you apply for a job, one person has a backlink from a famous source,
and another has one from a small source. The stronger the backlink, the better.

SEO & Business Research:

●​ Two things in niche research:


1.​ Difficulty
2.​ Profitability
●​ Google prefers dedicated links because they are specific to a domain.

Difficulty:

1.​ EMDS = Exact matching domain.


2.​ RDS = Referring domain (we check this).

For example:

●​ One domain with 1 link = 1 referring domain and 1 backlink.


●​ One domain with multiple links = 1 referring domain, multiple backlinks.
●​ Topical authority: The more pages on a topic, the better.
●​ Facebook has a high DA, but iSkill has a low DA. However, iSkill is on top because it
covers many topics.
●​ Every referring domain must give at least 1 link.
●​ A good referring domain = multiple small domains.
Ahrefs = Domain rating = Referring domain (other factors).

Profitability:

1.​ Volume: How much search, how much money?


2.​ Country: Foreign countries.
3.​ Language: Foreign languages (e.g., English).

Focus on Difficulty, not much on Profitability.

Authority in different Terms:

●​ Google: Page Rank


●​ Ahrefs: DR (Domain Rating)
●​ Moz: DA (Domain Authority)

Methods 1 to Find Nice

Through Marketplaces

1.​ Go to site buying/selling marketplaces like:


○​ Flippa
○​ Motion Invest
○​ Empire Flippa
2.​ Use filters in Flippa.
3.​ Pick a site URL and reverse engineer from SEMrush, Ahrefs, or Moz.

If it's a big site, we should reverse-engineer it as well because any one keyword can be found
that is used as a low-competition keyword.

Go to SEMrush

●​ Check volume.
●​ Apply filters.
●​ DA/DR should be below 20 (apply filters accordingly).

Keyword Search & Click Strategy


●​ Check keyword if there are pics in niche keyword not use it because it get your click
through rate and decrease your profitability

●​ When replicating a site, if its strength is low, KD more can also be used.

Website Finding & Replication:

●​ Rank our website that keyword that he rank
●​ This is called replication or aspiration

3.​ 10.Mozkd <25 samrush < 40
jitne kam kd utna better 1 is better
4.​ SERP analysis:
