One of Google’s policies is that if a website is newly launched, it will display web pages in search results. This is the policy of the honeymoon algorithm that we discuss in this article.

How does the honeymoon algorithm work?

The honeymoon algorithm dates back to 2004. If you’ve just launched your website, you may have noticed that you are amazingly on the first page of results (SERP). This is a phenomenon that is part of Google’s policies. When a user searches for a keyword on Google, Google offers the best results based on the same keyword, using indexed information from websites.

This policy of Google has reasons that have not been officially announced, but in this article, we will examine these reasons based on the experience of administrators and users of the results page.

Why you will be in the first results of Google with the help of honeymoon algorithm

1. Link to the keyword searched

One of the reasons you are at the beginning of the results is that Google wants to check your relationship with the same searched keyword. Then if you have used the same keyword in your pages, the user will see the site.

You may visit your site. Google seeks to show the closest and most relevant results to its users, if you are on your website

Use quality and appropriate content. Google will give you a better score.

Note : The exact time for your website to be included in the honeymoon algorithm is not known, but between 2 to 8 weeks, it has even been said that the website may remain in this algorithm.

2- Exposure to the user

The second reason you are at the beginning of the results may be that Google wants to expose your newly launched site to users. In addition to being misleading and surprising, Google Honeymoon can help your site grow in a short period of time.

3- No competition in the keyword used

The third possible reason is that you may have used a keyword in which there is no competition, or you may have written about something that is trending, and soon stubborn competitors will come to you and take your place. Take. This will slowly lower your ranking.

Finally, after you are stored in the honeymoon algorithm, you are placed in another algorithm called the sandbox algorithm. In the next article, we will talk about the sandbox algorithm in an understandable and useful way.

Ranking criteria in Google

Click rate

The formula for calculating the click-through rate : The number of clicks of users on a website divided by the number of page views in Google is called CTR or the same click-through rate.

User retention on the site

Just when a user enters your site to count out of your site, your time on site is counting. The longer this time stays or time on site, the more the user-visited page is liked, and that means attracting Google and user satisfaction.

Tip : When you are on Google’s honeymoon, users come to your site more than they really are. Because, as already mentioned, you are at the beginning of the results in Google Honeymoon, and it is you who must satisfy the users to stay on your site from the very beginning of the results page, and by publishing attractive content and Useful to keep them satisfied.

Jump rate

The jump rate may even be more important than the above two criteria. Bounce rate means that the user visits and exits only one page of your website and does not enter another page of your website. The lower the jump rate, the better.
