Defining your SEO goals

By setting goals and putting numbers to those goals, you'll be able to figure out whether your SEO efforts are actually paying off. Many businesses will simply say, "We want to rank #1 for this keyword," but that isn't quite enough.

 

Keeping this in mind, what are the goals for your website?

  • Do you want to increase organic traffic?
  • Do you want to increase the number of leads from your website?
  • Do you want to design a mobile-friendly website?
  • Or is your goal something completely different?

Share your primary SEO goal in the comments below!

Hello, we've divided our SEO gaols into LinkedIn and website ones. For LinkedIn, we want to increase our followers by 20% monthly, and keep our engagement rate between 5 and 7%.

Regarding our website, we want to have 50 email subscriptions and increase our organic traffic by 25 %.

I had a website before, but I wasn't drawing any traffic. I've been writing freelance for a year now and use keywords for clients, but have no actual clue about how SEO works.  I plan on launching my own content writing business, but need to understand SEO and digital marketing before investing in another website. My goals are to increase organic traffic, establish backlinks, maximize keyword usage, and create leads, not only for my own website, but for my clients as well.

I want to increase organic traffic to our website and ensure the website is easily navigated to turn that traffic into conversions on the website. Being mobile friendly as well would really help.

I don't own a website. I am actually a student in marketing and one of my goals of 2022 is to learn a new skill. I decided to focus on SEO at the moment. Therefore, my SEO goal is to learn SEO, and digital marketing, for the upcoming 12 months!
