If you’ve managed to do everything said above, but still have problems with Google ranking, just ask Google itself what to do. Its support section is full with guides, so if you dream to see your website being ranked on the front page of Google search, it is a high time to use it. It describes every single difficult programming detail, which has to be done for your website to be one of the leaders.

If you don’t want to make mistakes and get your start-up to the bottom, you need to stay cold blooded and think about your further actions. Getting to the top and becoming the best demands being accurate, confident and chill.
