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.

Search engines use software programs knows as spiders to crawl the web to build the search engine databases. Web pages are retrieved by these programs and analyzed. To get your pages on the top of the search engines you need to first get them visited by these search engine spiders. Your job is to design your site so the spiders will find it and come back often, this will get your pages listed so they will be found when people search for them.
Search engines make their decisions based on programmed priorities. They don’t care how accurate or well-written the content on your site is, because they don’t know. Search engines rank the significance of your web page content by counting the number of other websites that link to your site and measuring the quality of the sites that link to your site. A high ranked website like ArticleCity referring to a blog post that you wrote will pull your blog higher up on Google’s search results.
Search engines do care that you have unique, fresh content. Unique, new content is like spider food, this is what they look for. Create good, original content, update it regularly and keep adding to it.
