The Importance Of Quality Content For SEO In 2014

By Hassan Khan


Quality content has always been an important part of SEO. In fact, in the year 2014, the content on your website is going to play an even bigger role in the ranking of your website. As you probably know, Google is constantly updating its Panda algorithm, which primary purpose is to weed out websites containing doorway pages or low quality content. In fact, the recent Panda 4.0 update has affected the search engine rankings of some of the biggest companies on the Internet.



Nowadays in 2014, you can try doing the same thing and you will realize that you are just wasting your own time and money. Even if you can get ranked with blackhat techniques, the ranking is not going to last. That is why it is so important to focus on quality content in 2014. Of course, there is a very important question that is worth asking. What exactly do you mean by quality content?

Focus On Your Visitors

Personally, I have conducted a small experiment. I realized that it is now possible for an article to rank for hundreds or even thousands of long tail keywords without building too many backlinks. But for that to happen, you need to follow the guidelines mentioned above. Make sure the article is at least 800 words and written naturally without keyword stuffing.

The benefits of quality content is that it is now possible for a single page to rank for multiple long tail keywords. This is especially true after the introduction of the Hummingbird algorithm. Therefore, it makes sense for webmasters to spend more effort in deciding what to put on their website.

If you have been running an online business for at least a while, you have probably heard of a number of cliches such as money is in the list or content is king. In this article, we are going to focus on this content is king concept. As cliche as it sounds, we know that it is the truth. After all, without content, there will be no Internet in the first place. Nobody can argue with that. Most importantly, without quality content, especially in 2014, your website is not going to perform well in the search engine.
