Top 5 SEO mistakes you could never make 2007-06-24 17:43:21 Search engine optimization is one of the best tools that most Web business owners can use in order to be able to make the most profit out of their business online. Unfortunately, not a lot of Web business owners know enough about SEO
and what SEO can do to help their business.
If they are able to use SEO properly, then they will be able to increase website traffic, and at the same time improve sales, giving website owners the advantage over their competition online. Since not all of these Web business owners possess the knowledge of what search engine optimization is all about, and its possible benefits to their online business, they sometimes commit a few mistakes in their attempts to utilize such a program for their advantage.
One of the mistakes that Web business owners often commit is that they spend too much time on the design of their website, and not enough time on the content. Keep in mind that the content of your website is more important than the design, which is why people w
Truth about Google’s Supplemental Index 2007-05-23 09:21:13 If you run an online website or business you have probably already heard about Google
’s Supplemental Index
. You may have even heard it being referred to as Google’s Gulag, Google’s Digital Dungeon, or the moniker that seems to have stuck: Google Hell.
Hate it or love it, webmasters are passionate about the big G. There’s no argument on that point for one good reason: Google simply delivers the most search engine traffíc on the web. For any webmaster with at least a few white SEO connected brain cells Google can supply 60% or more of their traffic.
Therefore, suddenly getting the majority of your pages thrown into Google’s Supplemental Index can result in a correlating drop in business. A few examples of this were reported in a recent Forbes article by Andy Greenberg entitled “Condemned To Google Hell“.
It recounts how two online jewelry businesses lost traffíc and salës by having their pages falling into Google’s Supplemental Index. Th Read more:Truth

Black hat SEO techniques 2006-12-05 13:38:54 The following black hat SEO
techniques should always be avoided. Why should you avoid these techniques? Well because they can get you banned from all the major search engines, and because they are also very very easy to detect ( increasing the chances of getting banned from the SERP’s) … (see them after the jump)
Keyword Stuffing - don’t put the same keyword again and again and again…and again. It is very easy for search engines to spot automatically, and even easier for an employee of theirs to spot. Try to use different forms of words, for example if your subject was search engine optimization, include SEO, Optimizing for Search Engines, etc…
Invisible text - Very easy to spot by search engines (how hard is it to see if the background is #FFFFFF and the text colour is also #FFFFFF (or even something like #FDFDFD…). Don’t do it.
Doorway or fake pages - sometimes these are harder to automatically detect, but you will still get caught.

Top Ten SEO Factors 2006-11-29 05:07:28 These are what I believe to be the top 10 most important things (not necessarily in order) that you need, in order to get your website found in the search engines, and get your site search engine friendly.
There are many other factors as well, but if you follow these guidelines, you’ll stand a much better chance, and you’ll be off to a good start for a good SEO
strategy.
1. Title Meta Tag
The title tag is what displays as the headline in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages). It’s also what displays in the top blue band of Internet Explorer when your site is displayed.
Your title tag of your website should be easy to read and designed to bring in traffic. By that, I mean that your main keyword phrase should be used toward the beginning of the tag. True, there are websites being found now that do not use the phrase in the title, but the vast majority still do as of this writing.
Don’t make the mistake of putting your company name first, unless you are already Read more:Top Ten
How to choose a Domain Name 2007-07-06 04:31:36 If you’re in the business of creating websites and registering domain names you will have encountered the most critical question: What to call it?
When starting a web business getting a name that could be registered as a domain is very important. That said, availability of a name shouldn’t compromise what you are actually trying to achieve with the name.
Some pitfalls of domain name branding and what you should be looking for when choosing one:
How original and unique is it?
How descriptive is it?
What image does it convey?
Would you remember it after seeing it once?
Could you spell it after hearing it once?
Conveniently, those points are pretty much in the correct order for brainstorming domain names.
First find one that’s available, then discuss whether it works or not. Does it say what you want? Are there negative images or ideas associated that don’t fit? Is it memorable and easy for new users to find after maybe hearing about it in conversation?

Search Engine Optimization. What’s this? 2007-07-16 04:46:46 Search engine optimization (SEO) is one of the best tools available for web developers, because the free advertising afforded by the search engines is partly determined by on-page optimization techniques. With thousands of new websites being created daily, the competition for a listing on the first search result page is increasingly saturated for the popular keywords. Statistics show better than 90% of people only look at the first search result page, and a similar percentage only click on the top search listing.
In order to compete effectively, a Web page must be designed around a keyword or more effectively, a keyword phrase. The keywords must be included in the page’s title, keyword META tag, page’s description, the first heading (using the H1 HTML tag), throughout the body of the page and within the last 25 words on the page.
These are just a few of the basic SEO on-page options that, although will not guarantee a first page listing, are definitely required as a startin Read more:Engine
