SEO tips for beginners:

  1. Install Search Console
    Data is and will always be important. Even with an eye to the future of your function or company, it is smart to make substantiated choices. Especially when it comes to search engine optimization, it is important to drive your own data.
  2. Create redirects
    Within Google Search Console, you can see which pages get a status code 404. You can easily fix these by creating a 301 redirect. This not only redirects the user to the correct page, but also lets Google know what, after the old URL is gone, is the correct new URL page.
  3. See what you are found on
    In Google Search Console, you can see what you are being found on, indeed, you can see what page is being shown for this keyword. Use this to make your content even more relevant and show the right pages for the desired search term.
  4. Check your meta data
    "Home | yourwebsite.co.uk", of course we don't want to see this anymore. We want to see your important search terms reflected in the meta title and meta description, and we are not the only who want this... Google wants this too, this way it knows what the page is about and can therefore offer this page for relevant and related search terms. Google provides more relevant information, and you get more traffic to your website. That's a win-win situation.

Reviews of our training courses

Martijn Koetsier

Online marketeer a.i.

Martijn conducted a SEO training at Greenchoice for colleagues from different teams, with different levels of knowledge. Quite a challenge, but with relevant examples from our own website, he made sure that all the information fell perfectly into place. The exercises could also be applied immediately on the website, so the training proved its value straight away!

Esther Terpstra

Online Marketeer

We have now been working successfully with Onder for several years. To keep knowledge up-to-date within our team, we recently attended in-house training with Ineke. During an interactive session, Ineke brought our knowledge of SEO up to date. Theory was combined with interaction in a fun way. Even during the session, we immediately started working with practical examples from our own website. It was a useful tailor-made training that took our knowledge level into account.

Larissa Braam

Marketing- en communicatiespecialist

Martijn took the entire Marketing Crew team into the world of SEO. Really all onder topics were covered during the SEO training and we went into a lot of depth. This made it immediately clear to us that Martijn is extremely knowledgeable. We dealt with our own cases, so that we could immediately apply the knowledge we had gained to our own projects. It really was a very valuable training.

Rianne Jacobs-Schouten

Eigenaar

The SEO training that Martijn conducted for the dTLS. team was very informative. Martijn knows well how to outline all the issues that are important when it comes to achieving a good SEO position. Martijn not only goes into the content aspects of SEO, but above all he gives extensive attention to technical SEO. He conveys this in a calm and enjoyable way. If you also want to get serious about SEO, I definitely recommend training with Martijn!

" During the migration of our website, we enlisted the help of Onder, which proved to be a good choice. They advised and supported us throughout the process, and this resulted in us seeing our organic positions return quickly after the migration and not having to sacrifice much on our SEO traffic. Super! In addition, the whole team is a bit wiser through two interactive training sessions, one around SEO by Ineke and one around GA4 by Cynthia. Very valuable. In short, looking for a nice and good SEO party? Then Onder is the right place to be for you. "
