Top 5 dont's ... hmmm

  • Don't keyword stuff. Stemming is a wonderful thing and can be used to great advantage.

  • Do diversify your pages and describe your products in several different ways (semantics) just as a searcher might try to find them.

  • Don't write for the search engines. (Well not as much as before anyway!) :)

  • Do write for the potential customer. (As best you can)

  • Don't use all in anchor as if every word in the sentence, containing several keywords were meaningful.

  • Do be accurate with anchor text and match the most important keywords to the page being linked to.

  • Don't bother with reciprocal linking programmes.

  • Do concentrate on adding as much informational content as you can. Content is still king in my opinion.

    If you have the content, natural incoming links will begin to flow your way.

    Brett recommends adding a page per day. I find that to be somewhat difficult as it usually takes me about three days to add just one really good page. Photos, maps, line drawings research, writing, layout or whatever is required for the topic takes me longer to accomplish than a seasoned pro I guess.

    I figure if I add a page per week I will be doing exceptionally well!
