It’s easy to understand why. The convenience of ordering an item or scheduling a service via an app is something customers appreciate.

<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Excellent content or blog adding to your website is a popular and
authentic way to gain organic traffic to your site: Here’s why:<br />
<br />
<b>1. New & Fresh Content</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">Google gives preference to sites that repeatedly update content. A
blog is a eccentric way to keep your site fresh. The modernized content is
excessive for search engines’ robots to identify, and it’s a regular way to
keep consumers coming back to your site.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">If you haven’t predicted by now, or received it before, content
rules the time in SEO. We’ve get know ledged that the best
seo companies <a href="https://oneworldrental.com/">One World Rental</a> policies
start with content. Great content assistance user and gets collective, which is
accurately what Google is observing for.<br />
<br />
<b>2. Improved Interior Linking</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">This advantage relates to #6. Because you have switch over your
content, you can preferred  when to link your article to your website, and
with what anchor text.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">When complete properly, interior connecting helps search engines
appreciate what’s on your website. When you link a key phrase in your blog post
to a page on your website related to that expression, search engines take note.<br />
<br />
<b>3. Additional Indexed Post<br />
<br />
</b>When you <a href="https://www.writersdigest.com/whats-new/write-a-how-to-article-in-6-easy-steps">write
article</a>, every blog is indexed in search engines as a single blog page.
Having more pages doesn’t essentially associate with a well ranking, but it
does keep Google’s robots on your website lengthier and, as deliberated in #5
below, deliver more diversity in content.<br />
<br />

<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">The main reasons search engines contemplate in ranking sites is
back-linking. If a site has NO back links, Google consider the website is
unusable. However, if the domain has lots of back links, Google can see that
the site and content are valuable.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">One caution, though: link class matters. Thousands of links from
unconnected or low-quality websites it won’t helps you. In fact, they can be
prove negative for you. You want links from <a href="https://www.reliablesoft.net/what-is-a-high-quality-web-site-in-the-eyes-of-google/">high-quality
websites</a>, or social networks that are related to your field.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>

yet additional link to share. It similarly allows you to mark your own back
links by sharing each post on your social media.<br />
<br />
<b>5. Control</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: black; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">When you host your own blog and progress your private content,

keywords. You regulator the links. Blogs give you the power to switch your
online occurrence.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Although there has been notable progress in technology in education, there are still many loopholes that must be covered before one can see a significant impact of technology in education. With the cumbersome process of actually incorporating technology in schools and the weaker networks and low budget available in some institutes, having a full technology run educational system seems to be a good few years away.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">But since the students, and especially the youngest generation that will just be enrolled in schools in the coming years, is already being exposed to technology at a very tender age, schools should be preparing to take up the challenge.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Hence there is a pressing need for EdTech to catch up with the technology that students are already exposed to; especially so that they do not lose interest in the conventional methods of education. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Here are some ways in which technology is needed in classrooms to profoundly reshape the student-peer and student-teacher interaction as well as helping them inculcate a different sense of appreciation and learning.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">1. Encouraging Collaboration </span></b><br />
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /><o:p></o:p></span></b><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Seemingly most devices may hint towards students going into isolation or cutting off from the real world behind their screens. But using technology in education is quite the opposite; it helps to encourage collaboration in classrooms. Here teachers and students join each other, driven by their inquisitiveness and the need to explore the tech boundaries by discovering how new devices can function. The tech world so extensive that one is bound to make new discoveries even when using older devices - imagine a classroom where all these traits come to life. Children will not only feed their curiosity and learn with profound keenness but they will be more willing to learn from each other and collaborate on building newer projects together. It is a definite way of bringing students together without any cutthroat competitiveness. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">2. Teaching Students Digital Ethics<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">With the growth of technology, the incidences of cyberbullying have also increased. People find it more convenient to say things online than they would in person. Hence, the bullying has become increasingly harmful and vile. While there have been sites that help prevent cyberbullying; there is still a pressing need for proper education. Children should be taught to weigh the gravity of their words properly before posting them online. They should be taught that uploading their friends' photos or sending them to third parties should not be done without proper consent. With all these new dynamics involved and with the quick sending features of most apps it is easier to blur lines. Hence, proper education of how to conduct oneself online and how to really tackle these online trolls is direly needed.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">3. Easier Assessment<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Unlike conventional manners of accessing students by conducting several tests and checking them over an extended period; the latest technology helps analyze the qualities of students in a more time-consuming manner. Apps and interactive software can access a student's ability with great precision and within a limited amount of time. Moreover, especially now with something as simple as anti-plagiarism tools, it has only made teachers' lives easier to help detect whether a student has taken <a href="https://bestassignmentwriter.co.uk/" target="_blank">UK ASSIGNMENT HELP</a> or not.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Quite obviously, if the technology is providing better visualization and explanation of concepts, students will end up learning better. Moreover, they will not only depend on a single manner of retaining things the way one does while they are learning through reading. Instead, students will own be able to build mental pictures of what they have learned, recall audios of the parts they liked and with the added reading of books they can also help consolidate the ideas in their memory better. Hence technology has not only made learning better but has also made it more effective.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">5. Easy Accessibility of a Plethora of Courses<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">This is a great time for an avid learner who would like to improve their skills in almost every spectrum of life. Especially students who have the time to invest in enhancing their learning. With quick, multiple courses available online you can unlock a world of vast information and absorb it all up like a sponge. If there is anything you are interested in you can instantly go online and learn it.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">6. Quick Access to the Latest Information<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Gone are the days when you had to wait for the newest edition of a book to come for you to get updated information. With the speedy researches being conducted all over the world. It is no surprise that our textbooks should also remain updated to it. But since that can be a rather tedious task, it is better to actually find updated information through the readily available blogs and articles online. There are entire teams devoted to updating new information in their respective niches of blogs.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">7. Greater Room for Inculcating Independence and Curiosity<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">When students use gadgets on their own, it is no surprise that they will work on their inquisitiveness and would want to explore it more. Only now, one can see how children are better adapted to using and understanding technology than their older generation. This inculcates in them a sense of independence and curiosity which is a great start to having a more dynamic and technologically advanced future. If students are exposed to technology at such a young age, they will begin to think of ways to troubleshoot problems and come up with practical solutions as well.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Times are changing and technology is advancing quite speedily hence one must keep up with its pace if we really want to take the maximum advantage out of it. This can only come through more exposure and greater knowledge of how things work. That is not only specific for students but also adults if we are to provide the younger generations with the right kind of exposure.<br /></span></div>

<h3>

<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lots of SEO specialists, especially new ones, feel uncertain about what metrics they should use to track their results. This is the way you can estimate your work and get a better understanding on what has been done - you can see what direction you should move on and whether this work was actually worth of your time.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The easiest way is to check your keywords ranking, but did you know that using single metric is not enough to describe the real facts?  Multiple metrics (also known as key performance indicators) are the real numbers which you get from your website and can work on. You get it from the analytics tool you use (Google or KISSmetrics) and helps you calculate, evaluate and improve your SEO efforts.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In this article we will show you 9 different ways how to use multiple metrics and get benefits. Ready to improve your SEO?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yx-VnVFuHd0/W6mRuPvjD2I/AAAAAAAADNc/il4XwUoxOlkcORug83UtUCC392ZT-UwTwCLcBGAs/s1600/seo1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="The 9 Most Significant SEO Metrics You Need To Study" border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yx-VnVFuHd0/W6mRuPvjD2I/AAAAAAAADNc/il4XwUoxOlkcORug83UtUCC392ZT-UwTwCLcBGAs/s640/seo1.jpg" title="" width="640" /></a></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">1.Number of clicks</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the first metrics you may consider is the number of clicks. You can get a report from Search Console (go to search traffic - search analytics) and see how many organic clicks were received from the website and how exactly they were generated. Comparing this data with statistics of other months you can figure out what search queries attracted these clicks and use this info for the future.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">2.Bounce rate</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If a person visits just one page on your website and then leaves, it is considered a 100% bounce rate by Google Analytics. A high bounce rate can be both negative and positive: it shows you that the information placed on your website is not relevant or interesting to users so they leave the website not clicking to other pages. It can also happen that on this page user got the info they were looking for at once, so they just read it and left. You can check your bounce rate going to Behavior – Site content – Landing Pages.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">3.Exit pages</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Following the previous metrics, once again we point that understanding which pages cause users to eave is important. You can do it with the help of info provided by these exit pages to test various configurations and try to achieve the effect you want. Think what is wrong with highest ranked exit pages here going to Behavior – Site content – Exit pages. One of the ways to make user stay longer on your pages is good content that can be achieved by good quality interesting texts. This is like <a href="https://essayspirit.com/" target="_blank">essay writing service</a> – check for copywriters who can improve it.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">4.Organic traffic </span></b></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Everything that matters is your traffic – tracking it is efficient for your SEO performance. The indicator of users increase via search engines gives you confidence that your rankings are going higher for the keywords you target at and for those you don’t. This is actually the purest metrics you can use which gives you a proof that your efforts give good results and bring you more visitors.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">5.Go mobile</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Google statistics says that those websites which are not optimized for good work on smart phones or tablets will be ranked lower. In 21st century going mobile is rather a must, then a decision. So check where users have troubles using mobile devices and adjust appropriately. You can do it via Search traffic – Mobile usability. You can also use accelerated mobile pages to improve user experience.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">6.Remove duplication's</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Did you know that multiple pages with the same headings indicate that they are all about the same topic and lower your rankings in Google? Open Google Search Console and check the number of duplicate titles, descriptions, H1 or H2 in your content. Once again, take care of your content and make sure it is unique and not just copy pasted from other similar websites.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">7.Crawl errors</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you cannot count on Google in crawling your website successfully, honestly your chances are really small. Understand what pages of your website do not let Google bots crawl it and you can fix them to avoid these problems before it can seriously impact your rankings. You can do it via Crawl – crawl error report on the Search Console.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">8.Quality of inbound links</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">SEO has always been greatly impacted with back linking and its quality is now more important that the quantity. Evaluating the quality of your back links lets you come up with more relevant and appropriate links and to build campaigns for increasing your traffic. You can do it via Traffic sources – Referral.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">9.Returning users</span></b></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The number of users that return to your website is priceless – it lets you know that the content is relevant and useful for them and you are doing everything right. Plagiarism and boring content will not bring users back and you cannot email them and ask to return. That is why it is necessary to track the number of new and coming back users, its percentage to see what is going on and what you need to change. Record these numbers at least once a month – this is the most valuable traffic you may ever have.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In 2018 SEO metrics like page views or key words ranking do not work anymore. You should be ready to use the metrics provided above and keep trying to <b>improve your SEO strategy </b>– only that will lead you to future success.</span></div>
