Goals: To improve website's rankings and traffic using effective SEO

[Link] Research and SEO Audit
Perform Keywords Research for every website using tools like Google Keywords
Planner, SEMRUSH, etc. Keywords research helps find which keywords are best
to use in your business that provides valuable insight to the queries that your
target audience is searching on Google.

volumes or popularity, and the difficulty of the keywords to increase its rankings
due to competitors are factors that need to be considered in doing Keywords

Performs SEO Audit - This will be done through checking the business website
through SEMRUSH tool, and Moz Free SEO Tools. Getting the important things
to base and measure for SEO rankings, such as the Domain Authority Score.
Domain Authority Score is the proprietary metric measuring the domain’s
reputability. It accounts for the number and quality of its backlinks, organic
search traffic, and overall authenticity of its profile. It is important to record this
and check every 2 weeks or months to see if the rankings and traffic have
improved.
Also, checking and fixing the errors, warnings and notices from SEMRUSH tools
is also important before starting the Link Building Campaign because it helps
your website to be visible in the search engines and improve its authority score.
Usually, I am doing the Keywords Research and SEO Audit before starting any
Link Building Campaigns and Social Media Campaigns.
