5 Basic and Strong Steps in SEO, Learn Basics of SEO

Learn Basic of SEO1.    The very first step in SEO is Research the keywords. Decide what search queries you want to show up for. Do some deep research on how many people are actually searching for your site. There are several tools available from Google, Overture, Word Tracker and third party software developers that can make the keyword research process easier.
2.    Try to think outside of the box. Don’t just focus on your primary or main keywords. For example, if you are a builder in a particular area then don’t just optimize your web site for “real estate.” Try to optimize your website for Flat, House etc. You would be amazed to see that (use Google Analytics or any other third party software) how many unique visitors will come through to your site when “outside of the box” thinking occurs.
3.    Content is the King. Search Engines and End Users loves to get fresh content. Think about what your target market needs to accomplish their goals, and then put it on your site so that they can find it. If you want to be relevant for specific keywords, than you need superior or at least highly competitive content. Write about 250-300 words of copy for each keyword and plant it on your site each day. On average, one can target between 3-5 like keyword phrases per page. Make it as natural as possible and the Search Engines will reward you with a first-page ranking.
4.    Now it’s time for Title and Meta Description. Make sure that all the pages of the site have unique  titles and descriptions. If your site is using the same tags for all the pages, you are not helping search engines figure out the subject or relevance of your individual pages.
5.    Keep the structure, navigation and URL structure of your site simple enough for search engines to follow. Remember that search engines cannot read your navigation / link  if it’s developed/written in Flash or Java Script. So always try to use text for hyperlink/navigation.

Top 4 Link Building Mistakes which Must be Avoid

Here are 4 most important mistakes on Link Building which must be avoidI am working on a website called The Journeys Project from last 6 months. This domain is just 10 month old and got 4 Page Rank. So how this website got 4 Page Rank within 10 month with the help of Link Exchange.  I will reveal this secret in my next post but there are other factors which should be avoid while doing link building.  If you’ve done any research into search engine optimization (SEO) techniques, you know that one of the most important keys to getting good placement in search engines is to get other websites to link to your site.

The simple fact is that backlinks will give you a high page rank and a high page rank will rank you higher in the SERP’s.

Linking From Non-Indexed Sites
Most people who spend hours building those free backlinks make the mistake of building links on non-indexed sites. For your back links to count, the page on which you have your link has to be indexed. Having links on non-indexed pages means nothing. It’s a waste of time.

Not Using Anchor Text
At first this probably won’t sound too scary, but if you build 2,000 links without relevant anchor text your site can easily pass for a spam site that just gets random links. By using anchor text that is related to your site, it gives your links linkjuice – meaning it makes your links relevant and increases the perceived value of each link.

NoFollow Tags
Many website forums and blogs use nofollow tags to tell the search engine bots not to “follow” the links listed on that page. When the spiders don’t follow the link, the link does you no good. The SEO plug-in for Mozilla Firefox enables you to see whether a link is nofollow or not instantly.

Check your Back Link once in a Month
Once you’ve completed your link exchange and done the checks to ensure you’re not being cheated you must then check your links at regular intervals. Once you have more than about 50 links you will soon find link checking becomes a time consuming process. It’s far better to build your link directory using some form of link manager software that will automatically check your links at intervals you specify.
