I decided to target a keyword about a week ago, that I wasn't ranking for at all. So I added the new keyword, and without any ON PAGE SEO work for that keyword, I was able to reach 1st page on the MSN search already. How much does on page SEO factor in for the other search engines in your opinion. If you target the keyword "Minute Maid" in the Co-op are you making adjustments to your pages to make sure "Minute Maid" is on page?
On page is important if you are trying SEO without coop. But you may lose your ranking if you remove the ads from coop. As far as i know, Google puts huge weight for onpage SEO. especially title/h1/url
I agree with - onpage seo - loosing rankings AND PR when COOP is removed I have lost several sites with the last update - it seems only because the COOP ads were on them for 8+ months jez
incoming links can be more powrefull than well organized page ... if you have erver seen "These terms only appear in links pointing to this page" - U know what I meen Content is king..but after him ...incoming links are your best friend
