SEO Tips and Tricks

Monday, 22 August 2011

I though i’d share something I read regarding SEO tips and tricks.  Was just a list of things from thiswebguy which I thought was better then laying out something much longer that no one else will read.

• Remember backlinks are not everything
• Make sure your on page SEO is perfect before building links
• Have a clean URL structure
• Think outside of the box when building backlinks
• Be careful when using robots.txt
• Having good social media presence can now increase your rankings
• Do not keyword stuff your articles
• If your rankings drop don’t panic this happens sometimes wait a few weeks if they have not returned.. Panic
• No one can guarantee you a number one spot in Google
• Google does love content
• Google doesn’t currently love content more then links
• Pagerank is still important when looking for potential backlinks

• Getting organic traffic is not as easy as people make it sound
• Building good link bait can and will bring you in some good backlinks
• Keyword research is one of the most important steps in a good SEO campaign
• No matter how much competition there is it is still possible to achieve rankings
• Setup analytics and keep track of what keywords people are using to find your site
• Setup Webmaster tools to see what keywords you could rank for with little effort. (e.g ones you are showing on the 67th page for with no links)
• Try to Produce fresh content at least two times per week
• Don’t just concentrate on Google, Bing is starting to get some market share and they have a good set of webmaster tools too!
• Only use black hat techniques for sites you don’t want to have long term success with
• Black hat methods do work
• Remember to redirect the non www. version to the www. version or vice versa
• If using WordPress install the all in one SEO plugin
• Use good anchor text for internal links
• Don’t just build links to your homepage build deep links too
• Make sure you add alt tags to images
• If targeting a keyword also use broad phrases of that keyword in the content
• Try to use keywords in the title tags
• Try not to use too many tables
• Use breadcrumbs
• Give each page a unique meta description
