SEO Tips for Sites

A great place to start for your blog is to make sure it is Search Engine Optimized already - use targeted meta keywords and meta descriptions to enable search engines to spider your site more effectively. Once this is done you do not have to look at it again. Whatever your blog is about make sure your title, keywords and description are all relevant to your area of interest. The meta title and description will also be shown in search engine results so make sure it is correct.

Once you have optimized your website correctly and written good, original content, the next step is to build links. The amount of inbound links your website has is how search engines determine how good your website is. If your website has more links than another one, search engines will rank your website higher. If you write content that is keyword driven then this happens naturally but it can take a while. However, if you want to see faster results you might want to try some of the techniques below.

Firstly, submit articles to article directories. Sometimes you may find it challenging for the articles to be accepted as they must be reviewed by human reviewers. But, for every article you get accepted, you will also get a couple of links back to your website. Search engines really like this. You may see SEO as a game - always trying to get quality links from quality websites.

You are also able to build links to your website by commenting on blogs and forums. Some forum admins and blog owners will allow dofollow links to your site. Dofollow is the colloquial name for links that search engines will take notice of, in contrast to nofollow links. Nofollow was created because SEO marketers used to spam/pay for links which meant you would increase traffic dishonestly. Search engines ignore nofollow links which means you will not get any SEO benefit. Try to find some blogs that allow you to link to your site. This is good because it gives your site SEO benefits but also increases the awareness and lets you to network in the blogosphere. Your comments should be genuine and relevant to the content. In most cases, writing something self-promotional (such as: "why not visit my homepage?") will not get approved and you will have wasted time and effort. Always try to be productive.

Furthermore, you may also decide to use social book marking tools to bookmark to your content. You should not spam your blog though, admins are good at spotting this. Similar to directories, you will get a good inbound link from a high quality website. Well established websites are given greater weight by search engines. Effectively, you will get more search engine optimization benefits from an established website than a new one. In other words, having a dofollow link from a popular social book marking website is worth much more than a link from a small, unheard of website.

A final tip is to add your site to directories. They can be annoying to setup but you will get a good inbound link to your website if you manage it. A lot of the directories have high page rankings. Although note that there are normally various options for submission. There tends to be different payment options. Generally they are: paid, free with reciprocal links and free. If you can pay for links (although they can be quite costly) then you will see your website fast tracked into the directory. A free link may take months to be approved (as there is often a long waiting list for websites to be accepted). Unfortunately, reciprocal links negate the SEO benefit of the link because they are not one-way. These may be beneficial for referring traffic but for SEO purposes these are not as useful. http://www.dallasxpertseo.com
