I’ve been focused on helping web sites rank in the number one position for nearly a decade. As a result I’ve read and seen a lot of information published on SEO that is either totally inaccurate or validated with actual research. The good news is that I’ve sorted through a lot of this information to help you identify the best SEO strategies.
Having worked directly with hundreds of web sites I have discovered techniques for optimizing web sites that actually work. I often get question about SEO such as, “what is the one technique that works better than all others?” A difficult question to answer because I have found a number of techniques that are truly effective.
The first search engine ranking factor has to do with the anchor text of all inbound links to your website. Google and other search engines use the anchor text from other sites linking in to determine what your site is about and what it should rank well for. If websites link in only using a URL, and not your keywords in the anchor text, email them and ask them to update your link. The link should always appear with your most important keywords.

When you begin and SEO campaign, start by focusing on your on-page optimization. The practice of on-page optimization is all about what you do on your web page to help search engines understand your content and what your site is focused on. Even though off-page optimization is an important factor in the rankings equation, on page optimization builds a strong foundation for all SEO efforts.
Here are a few SEO tips you can use starting immediately to make your site more search engine friendly and begin enhancing overall rankings on all types of search engines.
Optimize Your Website Name. If you have not yet picked a URL for your website then consider purchasing one that includes your keyword but is broad enough to represent your business. Additionally, try to find a website name that is memorable. This helps with word of mouth and repeat visitors. Include your main broad keyword into your URL.

I recently read an article who compared Google to a woman! Although quite surprising at first, I realized that the author was right on the button. I personally believe Google is or at least act as a princess, but it’s a matter of degree in opinion.
So why is that, and what does it have to do with ranking on Page 1 of Google? Everything! Ever heard the expression “If she ain’t happy, nobody ain’t happy”? That is precisely what I am talking about.
Google has do’s and don’ts. Do what Google expects you to and you will be rewarded, Do something Google frowns upon, and be prepared to suffer “Google wrath” …

Search engine optimisation is a really powerful technique that helps websites get listed higher in search engine results and therefore improves your online success. SEO is a very large topic and has a vast range of different aspects to it. If you want to see success then you’ll need to consider some very important factors.
SEO is such a large topic that it is usually broken down into two separate aspects. The first is on page optimisation and the second is off page optimisation. Meta tags and unique website content are a few of the SEO skills needed in order to perform on page optimisation. This is where you concentrate on your website itself.
Off page optimisation is where you concentrate on aspects that are outside your website and web design. This is the larger side of seo. There are many different forms of off page optimisation so we’re going to discuss the options you have to improve your website rankings.

Reciprocal Links and SEO — Is it a Strategy or Hype
by Brent Sweet
I have researched SEO for years. I have just tried over and over to build one site that I was proud of where I am in Google’s index. I studied SEO from the time the internet started. The gurus were saying at that time it is all about your Meta Tags. I looked at my competition, did good keyword density, and made my meta tags better. I figured I would easily outrank the competition. After months of waiting I saw no results. The best part was some of these sites who were reputable corporations had keywords like XXX and Nudity. They did this to try to capture people searching for those terms, though they were unrelated and probably didn’t convert well, they were free people viewing your website. Even after nearly duplicating sites, I never improved my rankings.
The next thing I noticed is that all sites in a great position had thousands of pages in the Google index. The problem with this is many of my sites are simple sales pages, and I can’t create that much content. I then stumbled across Traffic Booster Pro. This program seemed fantastic. I would generate unique content pages for a site and show them to a search engine, but then redirect the users to my website. I used this and it worked very well until Google crawled my site so much it crashed my data center. My rankings instantly disappeared, and even after the site was back up, and I scaled back the amount Google crawled. My rankings never reappeared. I had be penalized by Google for all the generated content. This was a short lived method to get some traffic and I spent 100 bucks on it.
