Ranking Factors
Source: LateNightBirds
Here is the complete list of Google Ranking Factors (200+):
Domain Related Ranking Factors
1. Domain Age:
Actually, Google considers domain age as a ranking factor but it’s not
so important. Matt Cutts states in a Google Webmasters Video that:
“The difference between a domains that’s six months old versus one-
year-old is really not that big at all."
2. Domain registration length:
A lengthy registration time is important to get the trustworthiness
from Google. Because, spammers just buy the 99 cents domains for 1
year and spam the heck out of the internet world. Google's spam team
knows it. eSo, you should consider the time while registration. It is
suggested to register a domain atleast for 2 years.
3. Domain History:
Google may "reset" site history with negative marks if your website
volatile ownership or several drops. You can check domain history by
using [Link] and check whether the domain has several drops
or not and importantly, the contents and types of how it was based
on.
4. Exact Match Domain (EMD):
Exact match domain factor is one of the most significant matter
about ranking in Google. If you have EMD then it means that you
have a low quality website. The new Google update is aimed to target
exact match Websites,

Some EMD Examples you should keep in mind not to go with -
a). Keyword in Subdomain Name:
Using keyword as the subdomain is really important to boost your
ranking. For example: [Link].
b). Keyword in Top Level Domain:
Your keyword should come in your main domain and it will work as a
relevancy signal or help you to boost your website.
c). Keyword as first word in Domain:
You should use your targeted keyword as the first word in your main
domain to boost your site. It helps crawler to understand what the
website is about.
5. Public vs. Private WhoIs:
Private Whois information means "something is hidden". So, you
should always keep the Whois information opened for public.
6. Penalized WhoIs Owner:
If Google found a particular site as a spammer then the person's
other site will be scrutinized.
7. Country TLD extension:
If you are using a top level domain with the country code it may help
you to rank your site. But if you choose globally then it will be hard
for you to rank. Some Country TLD examples: .in, .cn, .us, .cl and
more.
Page Related Factors
8. Keywords in Title Tag:
Keyword in the title is the second most import factor of your content.
And send a strong On page SEO signal.
9. Title Tag Starts with a Keyword:
The focus keyword should be at the first of your title tag and it works
better than adding keyword at the end.
10. Keyword in Description Tag:
Another relevancy signals for your page. But not the most important
matter now, but still makes a difference.
11. Keyword Appears in H1 Tag:
The H1 tag is the most important heading because it sends another
relevancy signal to Google.

Another relevancy signal to Google. You need to use your targeted
keyword on your content. But it should not be used too many times in
your article. 1% Keyword ratio is highly recommended in 2017.
13. Content-Length:
I think you know the quotes, "Content is King". Google are very strict
on Mediocre content. Whatever the content you write, it should be
broader, informative and talk about any specific problem.
14. Keyword Density:
This factor is not much important for Google now. But you need to
keep in mind that you are not using keywords too many times on
your content. Keyword density should be 1% to 1.2%. Fortunetely, if
you know the right keyword research formula, you will not need to
have too many spots on your contents to stuff your keywords in this
2017. Just pick one right keyword and build a quality content around
it.
15. Latent Semantic Indexing Keywords in Content:
LSI Keywords are called Latent Semantic Indexing. In a easy sense it
is based on word phrases contains of synonyms. It helps search
engines to understand the meaning of words with more than one
meaning. For example, Apple means either a fruit or a Computer
Company. It helps crawler to understand the content quality.
16. LSI Keywords in Title and Description Tags:
LSI keywords in page meta tags help search engine to understand the
synonyms. And it also works as a relevancy signal.

understand your page speed using a page’s code and file size. Use
Google Page Speed Tool or Pingdom to measure your Page's
performance.

Identical or duplicate content on two sites can badly effect your
ranking position and may have a negative impact on that site. Even
slightly identical content can also face duplicate content issues.

subheading, H2 or H3 format may be calculated as a strong relevancy
signal.

exact match keyword in a page’s content will usually rank better than

phrase “Content writing Techniques” will rank better than a page
optimized for “Techniques for Content writing”.
