Five principles for a good article

We set Google's helpful-content guidance and Ahrefs' research beside this part of the blog.

1

Written for people

Google wants content made for people, not for search engines.

With us Practical web notes, from design and SEO to speed and security, drawn from real project work.

2

Who, how and why

Google wants it clear who wrote it, how it was created and why.

With us The author is the Seemerce team and each article shows its date and reading time.

3

A unique title and description

Google wants a descriptive, concise title and a page-specific description; there is no fixed length limit.

With us Each article has its own title and summary; this category covers the cost, checklist and meaning of website SEO.

4
