My website has lots of content, and it is a highly competitive niche. But, how do I build my site’s authority without doing SEO in every article?
It is sad to say but, seo is vital in order to build authority and search engine rankings. Of course there are many other methods that are also very important, such as off page seo such as link building. You can use article marketing, blog commenting and like adhyatma3010 suggested, social bookmarking sites.
I think your contents are doing well and has full of information which google need. When your articles are in top of google why are you bothering for SEO. You can use some low search anchor text for targeting of your niche. Make use of your keywords and create some internal backlinks within your site. That will help you.
Focus on creating evergreen content, this is content that provides value to users that it is shared over and over in various social media sites. You need to make sure to actively promote your site within your niche and link to other sites and invite them to link back to your site. Hope that helps. Have a good day!
You need to use Social Media sites like facebook, twitter, linkedin, stumbleupon to make authority website.
Social Media is definitely the way to do this. Please do not follow as one post says above about blog commenting/article submissions. Google now disregard these techniques and if you have a long term plan they will not help your website but harm it.
