What is Yandex Search Engine?
Yandex is a search engine that is the national pride of Russian citizens. Before Google, it turns out that Yandex was founded by Ilya Segalovich and Arkady Volozh. Not only functioning as a search engine, Yandex, which is one of the largest media companies in Russia, also has many services such as image search, video, free email services, maps, translate, browsers, and many more.
Why Should You Submit Your Blog to Yandex?
Increase organic visits.
Organic Visits are visits that come from search engines without the use of paid advertising. Even though you have optimized the use of Google Webmaster tools or which has now changed its name to Google Search Console (GSC). Registering or submitting your blog to many search engines is not in vain. Because your blog's ranking on Google is not always at the top, sometimes the ranking can go up and down and it can even drop drastically so that we don't get any visits at all. As an alternative, Yandex can be a solution to increase organic traffic coming from the Yandex search engine.
