An SEO Checklist
Would you like a checklist of the important steps to take in optimizing a web site? Well, here it is: 1. Use a keyword research tool to find profitable phrases (i.e. those that are actually being searched for). 2. Build each page optimized for a single keyword phrase. Also sprinkle in some secondary keywords relevant to the main keyword. 3. Link your web site together so that all pages are only a couple of clicks away from the homepage. 4. Use text links instead of fancy graphics or buttons to link to your pages. 5. When you add a link to a page where the main keyword phrase for that page is "blue widgets", makesure the links to that page include the phrase "blue widgets". 6. Build a sitemap. 7. Add articles / Content to your web site and add links from these articles to your important pages. 8. Get quality link partners. Once you have completed these 8 steps, repeat steps 7 & 8 over and over again. I would say that 80% of your time on a new site should be steps 7 and 8. Add content & findlink partners. A great way of getting links into your site is writing and publishing articles on article submission sites. When webmasters take up your article and publish it on their site, you get an incoming link to yours. As your site climbs in the search engine rankings, you can decide when you are happy with your rankings and reduce the amount of time spent on 7 & 8. *********************************************************
