Since we started supporting webmasters in the Portuguese<br \/>\n  language market in 2006, we saw a growing speculation about how Google indexes and ranks websites.<br \/>\n  The Portuguese language market is one of the biggest web content generators and it&#8217;s still in<br \/>\n  development regarding SEO, so we decided to shed some light into the main debated questions.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  We have noticed that it is very popular among Portuguese webmasters to engage in massive link<br \/>\n  exchange schemes and to build partner pages exclusively for the sake of cross-linking,<br \/>\n  disregarding the quality of the links, the sources, and the long-term impact it will have on<br \/>\n  their sites; other popular issues involve an over-concern with PageRank and how often Google<br \/>\n  crawls their websites.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Generally, our advice is to consider what you have to offer, before you create your own website or<br \/>\n  blog. The recipe for a good and successful site is unique and original content where users find<br \/>\n  valuable and updated information corresponding to their needs.\n<\/p>\n<p>To address some of these concerns, we have compiled some hints for Portuguese webmasters:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n    <strong>Be an authority on the subject.<\/strong> Being experienced in the subject you are<br \/>\n    writing about will naturally drive users to your site who search for that specific subject.<br \/>\n    Don&#8217;t be too concerned about back-links and PageRank, both will grow naturally as your site<br \/>\n    becomes a reference. If users find your site useful and of good quality, they will most likely<br \/>\n    link to your site, return to it and\/or recommend your site to other users. This has also an<br \/>\n    influence on how relevant your site will be to Google&mdash;if it&#8217;s relevant for the users, than<br \/>\n    it&#8217;s likely that it is relevant to Google as well.\n  <\/li>\n<li>\n    <strong>Submit your content to Google and update it on a frequent basis.<\/strong> This is<br \/>\n    another key factor for the frequency with which your site will be crawled. If your content is<br \/>\n    not frequently updated or if your site is not relevant to the subject, most likely you will not<br \/>\n    be crawled as often as you would like to be. If you wonder why Google doesn&#8217;t crawl your sites<br \/>\n    on a frequent or constant basis, then maybe this is a hint and you should look into updating<br \/>\n    your site more often. Apart from that in the <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/search\">Webmasters Central<\/a> we offer<br \/>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/search.google.com\/search-console\" class=\"external-link\">Webmaster tools<\/a><br \/>\n    to help you get your site crawled.\n  <\/li>\n<li>\n    <strong>Don&#8217;t engage in link exchange schemes.<\/strong> Be aware that link exchange programs or<br \/>\n    deals that promise to boost your site visibility with a minimum effort might entail some<br \/>\n    corrective action from Google. Our Google Webmasters Guidelines clearly address this issue under<br \/>\n    &#8220;Quality Guidelines \u2013 basic principles&#8221;. Avoid engaging in these kind of schemes and don&#8217;t<br \/>\n    build pages specifically for exchanging links. Bear in mind that it is not the number of links<br \/>\n    you have pointing to your site that matters, but the quality and relevance of those links.\n  <\/li>\n<li>\n    <strong>Avoid pure affiliations.<\/strong> In the Latin America market there is a massive number<br \/>\n    of sites created just for pure affiliation purposes such as pure mercadolivre catalogs. There is<br \/>\n    no problem in being an affiliate as long as you create some added value for your users and<br \/>\n    produce valuable content that a user can&#8217;t find anywhere else like product reviews and ratings.\n  <\/li>\n<li>\n    <strong>Use AdSense wisely.<\/strong> Monetizing original and valuable content will generate you<br \/>\n    more revenue from AdSense compared to directories with no added value. Be aware that sites<br \/>\n    without added value will turn away users from your site before they will ever click on an<br \/>\n    AdSense ad.\n  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n  You should bear in mind that the process of indexing and how Google crawls your site includes<br \/>\n  many variables and in many cases your site won&#8217;t come up as quickly in the SERPs as you expected.<br \/>\n  If you are not sure about some particular issue, consider visiting the Google<br \/>\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/search-essentials-overview\/\">Webmasters Guidelines<\/a><br \/>\n  or seek guidance in your community. In most cases you will get good advice and positive feedback<br \/>\n  from more experienced users.
