1. Get a memorable domain name.


The domain name is very important for your news site to have an attractive and high-quality look. When buying a domain name, pay attention to the content of your news site to make it relevant. Remember that your domain name will be one of the most important things that will create your brand value.

Get a reliable hosting (web site) service from Azerbaijan

Once you get your domain name for the news site, you need to get a hosting that will host your site. When buying a hosting service, we recommend that you use a company that provides quality and service in Azerbaijan in terms of speed and SEO. Having a field to buy from Azerbaijan will increase the SEO performance of your site and thus you will be able to rank higher in search engines. The duration of the site development process may vary depending on the use of the site.

Reduce your target audience

You've got a domain name for your news site, you've set up your content management system on your hosting, and now you need to produce content! So why prepare content? This is an important question. Do not open a social news site. Try to create a website that revolves around a specific topic and covers a specific topic.

Choose a design that can better present your content

Choose the design that best presents your content. If you have more category sections on your site, choose a design that you can present all the categories on the home page. No, if you have a very small category, you can also choose a design that is not too complicated. If you want to add photos to the content of the news site, you can focus on designs that make the image more visible. If you are going to use video, make a design that will also house the video section. Another important factor is that the design you choose is modular. When choosing a design, make sure it is customizable and customizable.

Add periodic content

Consider adding periodic content to your site. So let your reader predict how much news will be coming to the site tomorrow or next week. In this regard, pay attention to periodicity. Don't broadcast 100 news a week and 10 news next week. In short, make sure your content sharing is periodic. It can be 1 per day or 100 per day.

Check out photo galleries and videos

Video and photo galleries can also be important on the site. Don't just fill the space provided by the Internet with articles. Add videos and photos to your site. This will not only increase your readers' stay on your site, but also increase their understanding of quality.

Identify your competitors and their strategies

Don't make the mistake of just analyzing your own news site section and not seeing other competitors. Identify your competitors and keep an eye on them. Who does what? How do they get feedback from their readers? Make a note of them and try to add these benefits to your site.

Actively use social media

If you have a news site, you must also have social media accounts. You must be active on Facebook, Twitter and Youtube, which are the most used in Azerbaijan. Sharing news, photos and videos on your site in the accounts you open on these channels will not only increase the number of your readers, but also strengthen the loyalty of your readers. Readers who see you on social media will love the brand and will be able to re-enter the site when they see your posts.

Get support from professionals

Dealing with every aspect of a news site can be quite difficult. At this point, do not hesitate to seek professional support. In this regard, we recommend that you join the forums created for web developers. In these forums, you can contact people who provide professional support at very reasonable prices.

Clear and understandable design

The most important point you need to pay attention to in order to establish the right relationship between website design and SEO is the clear and understandable design of the site. The texts and information on the main page should be relevant to the main purpose of the site and sent in detail to the sub-pages. And don't forget that creating multiple subpages can be detrimental to your SEO. In addition, it is important for search engines that the URL structure of the website is short and does not contain special characters.
