SEO Hype Log
There’s so much hype inside the Search engine optimization industry probably because it is a techno field plus is very competitive so everyone is endeavouring to eyebrow everyone else and get the upper edge.
Being in my antiquated 40′s – hippy 1965 baby to be exact – I have been around the IT industry well before most of the current players were out of diapers. I was there in our computer room when they unveiled the latest hard drive – it looked like a modern day top-loader washer and was the same size! All up it held a ‘breath-taking’ 40 Meg of data. Yes that is right 40 Meg! When we saw the new micro PC’s come out we felt they would never take off (we must have had IBM blood in us!) and the IT journey went on from there.
Today my ‘long teeth’ dip in my beer and my eyeballs roll back in their sockets when I hear some of the hype plastered around the SEO playing field.
Yes Search engine optimisation can be specialized but only usually when you got it drastically wrong at the beginning – your internet site that is. If you did not engage an SEO advisor to give you the rundown BEFORE you started building then you probably wound up with a site pierced with a trillion Search engine optimization holes. These websites can take some fixing without a doubt. Many web designers don’t know anything about SEO and what they do know they infrequently put into practice because they are certainly not requested to by you! Not selecting a great SEO advisor is like building a 3 storey house without using an architect and engineer and expecting the builder to get it right – no way.
I encounter a good Search engine optimization site once in every 100 sites. This is a terrible track record for web-developers. Every other single website is a ship filled with holes sinking in the lower regions of page 196 of Google!
So apart from adding some colorful pros to this piece I suppose I should add some substance. Well here it is – short and simple (well maybe not that short!)
Content is King
Google uses back-links a lot right now to judge a web sites popularity. However, it is currently a piece of cake to produce back links of good quality in large amounts to unbalance the ranking game. Google knows it’s got to find the right way to balance this out. When it does, most people’s position will certainly come crashing towards the ground overnight.
On the other hand, Google always wants Good quality content material – the best it can display. Should you have this, then because content is the only reason why we have search engines like google in the first place, your site will usually do well no matter what twists and turns Google puts its search engine algorithms through.
Never ever overlook that content is king within the Search engine optimisation jungle. Ignore at your peril.
We battled to get content on clients web sites for so long until we built it into our Search engine optimisation ranking packages. We now offer a content and back-linking service (SEO.SIMPLE.) that solves this inherent problem. Now our clients get fresh unique content on their websites weekly and gain ranking results from it seeing it is Search engine optimization optimised as well.
Your content delivery engines needs to be well tuned
Don’t think that you can merely add content to a website and miss out on the platform you’re adding it to. Google wants to ensure that the content is not only the best for the key phrase requested, but it also gives the very best user experience. So be sure to cross your T’s and dot your SEO eyes when it comes to making certain your internet site delivers the very best experience such as performing these :
Make certain your server is quick – Google not too long ago added this one – upgrade right now if it takes too long to load your pages
Make sure ALL images have ALT tags WITH purposeful content material
Make sure every page has a UNIQUE page title relevant to the content of the page
Fix Canonical problems (were http://www.yoursite.com and http://yoursite.com and http://www.yoursite.com/index.php etc all resolve to the same page but have different addresses. Instead they should all redirect to a single page and that page should be used throughout the site in all links. If you are on a UNIX based server this can be fixed quickly usually through the htaccess file)
Make sure there are at least 300 words of meaningful textual content on any web page – the more the better for Google
Make certain that if you are utilizing a Content management system that the URL’s are fixed so only phrases appear (and preferably keywords) and not funny programming expressions and numbers
Whenever you create a link use a keyword(s) and not the notorious ‘click here’ as the anchor text
If you cannot add content to your site (maybe you have a flash site), then at least add a weblog attached to your website – this helps a great deal
When you next renew your current domain, renew for at least three years – after all longevity exhibits maturity and improves trust
Inbound links and more backlinks
And of course don’t stop back-linking. Right now it is the powerhouse for Search engine optimization but don’t rely on this for the long term.
So I hope this has helped ‘de-hype’ a few of the SEO materials out there and assisted you along the Search engine optimisation road a little bit further.
