For many years now, it\u2019s been widely understood that Google prioritizes website content over superficial technical tweaks or external link-building. Many of you may already be aware of this.<\/p>\n

What Google values in a website\u2019s content isn\u2019t copied information from elsewhere or AI-generated filler; but original, high-quality content that provides real informational value. That\u2019s what gets prioritized in search rankings.<\/p>\n

In recent years, usability, that is, how convenient or helpful a site is for users, has also become a major factor in evaluation.<\/p>\n

For example, if users visit your site but immediately leave, the site is considered low-value. The higher the bounce rate, the lower your rankings are likely to be. On the other hand, if users stay on a page for a long time or browse multiple pages within the same site, it signals that the site is useful and easy to navigate, earning higher rankings.<\/p>\n

So it’s no longer just about having good content. Improving user flow and enhancing usability across the site has become a crucial part of SEO strategy today. By refining the user journey, you not only increase convenience but also improve your search rankings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
