Website loading speed is one of the biggest ranking factors according to Google. If your website takes more time to load then it will send a bad signal to Google, then Google will eventually down the website. According to a survey if your website loading speed will increase by 1 second then you will lose 10% of your income. If your website loads first then everyone will love to stay on your website but if the loading speed is bad then most will bounce back from your website. Which will increase your bounce rate?

You have to check which files are taking more time to load like your images, CSS files, and then you should optimize accordingly. 

GTmetrix:-

As you may know, if you have structured data implemented on your website then there is the chance of coming in the rich snippet of the SERP page.

To check if structured data is implemented or not you can use the Structured Data Testing Tool for free, and you can make the required changes there only.

Mobile-Friendly Test:- 

After the Mobile-First update of Google, it is giving more and more priority to the mobile-friendliness of any website. As more and more people are using mobile phones to surf the internet and search for anything. It’s better if your website is mobile-friendly. Before the update, Google used to check the design only on desktop and then it used to rank your content. But now Google first checks the design in mobile and if it is all ok for mobile then Google ranks the content on top. 

So, for this reason, it is better if you use a mobile-friendly theme and use AMP for the mobile version. To check if your website is mobile-friendly or not you can use Google’s free Mobile-Friendly Test tool. It will tell you about all the things about your mobile design. 

Small SEO Tool:-

According to me, the Small SEO Tool is one of the best free tools available there in the market for beginners. Using this free tool you can do many things like keyword research, BackLink check, website SEO checkup, website tracking, domain related things, meta tag tool, plagiarism checker, and much more. 

While writing any content you can use the tool to research keywords, you can also check plagiarism here, you can also count the number of words you have written here. It is very helpful in content rewriting also.

Google My Business:-

For any local business, it is the #1 must-have a tool. You have to verify and claim your business here. When you add your business here it will send a code to your given address and by entering that code you have to verify your website/business. Here you can add your business pics, opening time, special offers and also you can respond to your reviews.

Ubersuggest:-

Ubersuggest is one of the widely used SEO tools among beginners. This tool is by Neil Patel. This tool is very helpful for keyword ideas, content ideas, site audits, backlink checks. Using this tool you can also do proper competitor analysis. 

The only issue now this tool is not completely free. After 15th February 2020, it became paid.
