Your way to the first page of Google

So you want to get started and bring your website to the top? SEO, or search engine optimization, is your key to success! It's about optimizing your site so that search engines like Google can find it better.

How does SEO work?

In short: By choosing the right keywords, improving the technical aspects of your site and building a strong online presence.

 

That's why SEO is important for your company or organization

SEO is crucial to increase your website's visibility, generate more traffic, and ultimately generate more revenue. By ranking well in search results, you reach more potential customers and build trust and credibility at the same time.

 

How SEO works in detail

SEO is a complex process that includes various measures:

 

Keyword research:

Keyword research is the first and most important step in an SEO strategy. Here, we identify the most important keywords that your target group uses to search for your products or services. This is done through tools such as Google Keyword Planner, Ahrefs, and Sistrix. These keywords are then integrated into your content to ensure that your site is visible to relevant searches.

On-page optimization:

On-page optimization focuses on improving the content and technical aspects of your website. This includes:

  1. Meta tags: Optimizing meta titles and descriptions to increase click-through rate in search results.
  2. header tags: Use H1, H2, and H3 tags to improve the structure and readability of your content
  3. Image SEO: Optimize images using alt texts and file names to make them easier to find in image searches.
  4. Internal linking: Development of a meaningful internal linking structure to make navigation and crawling by search engines easier.

Off-page optimization

Off-page optimization refers to any action taken outside of your website to improve its authority and ranking. The most important aspect of this is building backlinks. Backlinks are links from other websites that point to your site. They signal to search engines that your website is trustworthy and relevant. Strategies for this include:

  1. Guest contributions: Writing articles for other websites to get backlinks.
  2. Influencer marketing: Work with influencers to share your content and generate backlinks.
  3. Social media: Promote your content on social media platforms to support visibility and backlink building.

 

Technical SEO

Technical SEO involves optimizing the technical aspects of your website to improve its visibility and user experience. This includes:

  1. Page load time: Improve your site's load speed to reduce crashes and improve rankings.
  2. Mobile optimization: Make sure that your site works optimally on all devices, especially mobile devices.
  3. SSL certificate: Implement HTTPS to keep your site secure.
  4. Structured data: Use schema markup to give search engines more information about your content and enable rich snippets.

 

content creation

The regular production of high-quality content is crucial for SEO success. Content should not only be informative and appealing, but also optimized for search engines. This includes:

  1. blog posts: Regular publication of blog articles on relevant topics.
  2. infographics: Create visual content that presents complex information in a simple way.
  3. videos: Use video content to increase time spent on your site
  4. White papers and e-books: In-depth content that serves as lead magnets.

Yes, you can do SEO yourself, especially if you have basic knowledge of search engine optimization and the workload in daily business allows it. There are numerous online resources, tutorials, and tools that can help you implement SEO measures yourself. However, SEO can be complex and time-consuming — and if you do it with the wrong strategy from the start, all of your time invested won't be relevant. On the part of Yoline, we recommend that we at least develop the keyword analysis and individual SEO strategy. This saves you tool costs and ensures monitoring using professional tools.

SEO in itself is an unpaid way to improve your site's visibility in search engine results. Many SEO measures, such as keyword research, on-page optimization, and content creation, can be carried out without direct costs. However, tools and software can incur costs. In addition, we recommend that at least the individual SEO strategy be developed through an SEO agency such as Yoline. These expenses result in one-off investment costs. Experience has shown that we recommend working with an SEO agency on a monthly basis in order to achieve the best possible visibility on Google and Co. However, investing in SEO can pay off in the long run as it helps to increase organic traffic and reduce reliance on paid advertising.

There are lots of excellent SEO tools out there, each with different strengths. The most well-known and frequently used tools include:

  1. Google Search Console: A free tool from Google that provides detailed insights into how your site is performing. As an SEO-specific agency, we recommend that Yoline does not put a mobile app or website online without being connected to Google Search Console and Google Analytics.
  2. Sistrix: We mainly work with Sistrix. A German tool that is known above all for continuous training provided by in-house technicians and software engineers. We are a certified SEO agency from Sistrix.
  3. SEMrush: A comprehensive tool for keyword research, backlink analysis, and competitive analysis.
  4. Ahrefs: Known for its powerful backlink analysis and comprehensive SEO database.
  5. Moz Pro: Offers plenty of SEO tools, including keyword explorer, rank tracking, and site audit.
  6. Yoast SEO: A popular plugin for WordPress that helps both on-page optimization.

It should be noted that the optimal tool in the United States or in Germany is not necessarily the best tool in Switzerland. It is necessary to assess the databases that are set up in the tools for each language and country. Here at Sistrix, we have enormous volumes of data for Switzerland, Germany and Austria.

The journey from Yoline to an SEO agency in Switzerland

As a holistic marketing agency, it is not entirely common for an agency to be very operationally specialized in SEO, especially in the area of SEO. But there are reasons for that. After 10 (+) years in digital marketing and offering SEO services in Switzerland and neighboring countries, we have noticed over time that a great deal of personal work is required to really build up SEO for companies.

The majority of the agencies' services were opaque and were based on 0815 catalogues of measures. The SEO strategies are anything but individual. Logically, after all, marketing interns suddenly developed SEO strategies for renowned customers from our portfolio. It was clear that the level needed to be raised here with our networked entrepreneurial thinking.

Just as we tested and changed agencies, we also tested and changed tools. Since 2022, we have been developing comprehensive and professional SEO strategies for companies from a wide range of industries. Since the end of 2023, we have continued to professionalize these services with weekly +3h podcasts, news and inputs on SEO and ongoing certifications and workshops with other SEOs from across Europe.

Well, Yoline was restructured in mid-2024 and it was just getting started. On the one hand, you read that Google SEO is said to be dead, on the other hand, you hear about fully autonomous AI offers in the area of SEO and the competition can be found throughout the DACH region. Why is Yoline now focusing on SEO in addition to typical strategies, PR project management and consulting? It is the combination of the continuous relevance of organic Google search results, the associated high UX of websites, the entrepreneurial thinking of Yoline and its network, and the potential after analyzing the competition.
