class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Permalink irrelevant<\/li>\n<li>Not using footer space<\/li>\n<li>Local SEO hacks<\/li>\n<li>Your posting schedule is irregular<\/li>\n<li>You

class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Permalink_irrelevant\"><\/span>Permalink irrelevant<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Permalink is an important aspect of WordPress. WordPress allows you to create your own permalinks. Every post and page on your website has a permanent link called a permalink. This helps Google identify your website&#8217;s pages individually.<\/p>\n<p>The permalink WordPress creates automatically is sometimes misleading and Google cannot classify it. Set up relevant permalinks to improve your search engine rankings.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Not_using_footer_space\"><\/span>Not using footer space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Most creators ignore the footer space. Every big and successful website has tons of links and information in the footer. The footer is the bottom of a page.<\/p>\n<p>Your website&#8217;s internal links must be in the footer. That is, of the About, Privacy, Owner and Contact pages. It improves your website&#8217;s overall experience and helps you rank.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Local_SEO_hacks\"><\/span>Local SEO hacks<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Local SEO is one of the most important SEO tricks in 2021. Also optimize for local searches. Your main goal should be to sell products or have a website for your physical store. This is because local SEO targets local audiences, which are more likely to be your customers. It will also increase conversion rates as local customers will see it.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Your_posting_schedule_is_irregular\"><\/span>Your posting schedule is irregular<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Even Google dislikes haphazard websites. If you want to be part of the internet world, you must be consistent. If you miss a few days, your website&#8217;s ranking will suffer. Focus on content quality and quantity, especially if you are a beginner.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t update your site, Google will. Your audience will shrink as well. So, post regularly.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_are_using_excess_paid_ads_to_grow\"><\/span>You are using excess paid ads to grow<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Sure, paid advertising can help you achieve your goals quickly, but relying on it solely isn&#8217;t Many digital marketers believe that paying for excessive ads will suffice. But long-term success requires an organic approach. It also depends on the number of ads, so if another digital marketer pays more than you, his ad will appear before yours. Beginners have low income, so don&#8217;t overspend on paid ads. Organic content has the potential to always rank higher.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_voice_search_optimization\"><\/span>No voice search optimization<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>As you may be aware, a 5-year-old uses Google to search for toys or any other question. The child can&#8217;t properly type the keyword. So, optimize your site for voice search. Your content&#8217;s keywords should be easily accessible. Voice search is now Google&#8217;s new algorithm, making it easier for users to find answers.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Excess_use_of_Plugins\"><\/span>Excess use of Plugins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We&#8217;ve seen many creators drawn to WordPress by the Plugins. Plugins help you grow, but relying on them solely is risky. Minimize plugins on your website.<\/p>\n<p>Plugins are the organic growth shortcuts. Plugins improve the visitor experience but degrade the ranking. You need to balance organic growth with fewer plugins.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Use_of_complicated_URLs\"><\/span>Use of complicated URLs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Google does not promote (www.top25-wordpress-seo-mistskes.abcd.xyz). Your website&#8217;s URL should be easy to read and remember. For example: www.seotips.com<\/p>\n<p>So make your URL understandable to both search engines and humans.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ignoring_mobile_users\"><\/span>Ignoring mobile users<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Most bloggers use PCs and only optimize their sites for desktop. Currently, most users carry their phones with them everywhere. It can&#8217;t fit on a mobile device. Separate mobile website optimization is required.<\/p>\n<p>Your images must be mobile-friendly in both resolution and size. The navigation buttons should be visible and links should work. Your website&#8217;s interface should be compatible with Android and iOS. When optimizing, you can see both mobile and desktop previews. So, make your site mobile and desktop friendly separately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Table of Contents Permalink irrelevant Not using footer space Local SEO hacks Your posting schedule is irregular You are using excess paid ads to grow&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1713","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-seo-search-engine-optimization","category-tech-how-to"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>9 WordPress SEO mistakes to fix for better rankings - Lite14 Tools &amp;
