STOP Paying for SEO!!!

    Why pay somebody to do SEO on your website when you can do it yourself?

    W3Optimizer, a new SEO tool, takes your META Keywords, and using those, analyzes your content, header tags, images, links, bold text, and meta description and gives your web page a grade.

    It's easier to get 100% on static websites, not so much on dynamic like forums and blogs.

    My site Monetize My Web has 80.6%, while my proxy http://www.schoolhelper.info has 100% :cool:

    Read More about the W3Optimizer

    What about you guys? What is your grade?

    Sorry, my boss has something better to do... Running a business for example (and I personally don't care about grades, I care about conversions)

    There are thousands of such tools available in market, but i would never rely on any rather i would work on my site myself. such tools may be helpful for noobs ;) but its better to study your site, niche and other high ranking sites and do the necessary changes.
    .............For me SEO is R&D ;)

    I think that this thread is a wasting of time, don't you think that there are lots of businessman who a ready to pay some for a SEO expert instead spend his on things what could be done for something else? Do you think that the boss of any company have nothing else to do just learning about SEO? So why should he pay for web developers? He could learn how to develop it himself too...

    mmm not a bit little designed tool to be fair. However, the stop paying for SEO is a rather sweeping statement. The tool doesn't exactly replace anything.. handy though.

    I would suggest stop paying for SEO, but I would say that you should consider learning a little bit about and lighten the need to pay people for SEO work.

    Zexy is 100% right!

    Are you an SEO specialist? A programmer? A hostmaster? A web designer?

    Or...

    Are you an entrepreneur and business man?

    Obviously everyone is different, but if you are trying to make money on the internet as an entrepreneur then why would you bother learning seo, programming, an how to host websites if you can put your creative time to better use?

    Thanks for that, very useful and gives me some areas to work on.

    I think I'll keep paying for SEO until I understand it fully though, LOL.

    Well, this would help a little. Though SEO professionals can do far more than just use tools. There's a lot of manual labor involved.

    I don't really like this tool. It's not entirely accurate.
    For example, a page should have 4 meta keywords?...are you crazy?

    Why pay someone to change your oil when you can do it yourself?
    Why pay someone to clean your house when you can do it yourself?
    Why?

    Obviously this person does not understand the time value of money.

    You pay for services that will bring you a profit and you focus on your core competency. The do-it-yourself mentality is exactly why so many people never make any real money.

    Focus on what you are good at, and outsource the rest.
