SEO Tips & Tricks: They Don’t Want You to Know About

Websites

Inclusively covers the art and science of creating and developing websites, whether it be about SEO, Publishing a Webpage, WordPress, or whatever.



Take Control by Managing Your Content

Never assume that any of Google’s computer algorithms will automatically make the correct decisions for you. Never assume that if you make all the correct decisions, that Google and your installed version of WordPress will actually do what you want done, all of the time.





Target Your Page’s Main Keyword for Success

Google favors keyword density over keyword repetition. So, there is never a need to write really big pages where a keyword is repeated hundreds of different times.





Technorati has become Google Junior

Technorati has their own version of Google’s Supplemental Index, otherwise known as their blog index where no one will ever see your posts. Before Technorati will list your posts in their General Tag Index, making them visible in Google, a lot of linking building is required.





Technorati Milestone Achieved

John H. Gohde has observed that a few of his SEO blog posts have received a boost from a Technorati temporary feed link. Within a month or two, John thus has good reason to believe that his new posts should be receiving a more permanent boost in the SERPS from Technorati’s main Tag directory links.





Text is King – Eye Candy Doesn’t Impress Google

Fantastic! You are now running a modern eye candy site with all of the latest bells and whistles to entertain visitors to your website. But, is your site invisible to Google? Google is about as blind as any human can get. Maybe even more so, and can not see any of your javascript, flash, video, and / or animation features.





The Buying and Selling of Links

Search engine optimization is about optimizing what one has control over. Webmasters in most cases have no control over who links to them. In fact, obtaining links from other websites is about website promotion rather than SEO. Wasting time on trying to get external links by engaging in superstitious behavior is counter productive to good search engine optimization.





The Honest Truth is that Validation is Pure Bunk

SEOs that make a W3C Validation claim are just trolls trying to scam you into spending your time making worthless busywork changes to your website. Or, worst yet trying to scam you into purchasing their expensive SEO services.





The Importance of PageRank is Overrated

The supreme importance of PageRank simply is not so. Only when all other things are equal does the importance of pagerank ever come into play.





The Lowdown on Comment Spam

The naked truth is that your fellow SEMs are using advanced Black Hat techniques to make your blogging experience as miserable as possible. Why? Because they view comment spam as being part of their SEM job description.
