High-quality sites which meet the following requirements will be ranked higher on search engine results pages :
- Local and area business entities ranking
- “action,” users take on individual pages (signing up with contact info, doing research, maintaining account preferences, and more)
- Authentic usage of keywords without overinclusiveness of irrelevant topics or features such as auto-play video that may distract inadvertent visitors who have chosen the site due to marketing efforts and google PPC advertisements or an attractive photo or header graphic but then promptly bounce off.
