Why is Having a Website Important?
When compared to English-language information on the internet, Bengali content is still comparatively lacking. This implies that even with less competition, you can rank on the first page of search results if you effectively optimize your Bengali website. For the Bengali language, Google follows a slightly different workflow. Therefore, you must understand the fundamentals of SEO in addition to how Bangla content works.
Chapter 1: SEO Preparation
Step 1: Researching Keywords
The appropriate keyword is the cornerstone of your content. Useful resources for Bangla:
- Ubersuggest: Supported in Bangla.
- Google Translate + Ahrefs: Conduct a search by converting terms into English.
- Google Trends: Locate trending English phrases and convert them.
- Answer the Public: Respond to the audience using question-based keywords.
Example Keywords for “online income”:
- Methods for earning money online
- How to become a freelancer
- Include a cell phone
Step 2: Competition Analysis
Examine the following Google keywords:
- Who’s in the lead?
- What kind of titles, subheadings, and images are they using?
