Actually the process of onsite optimization includes 3 main stages: 1) keyword research; 2) Onsite optimization of website; 3) link development. For more information about each of these stages I would recommend to visit entrepreneur training blog and read recently posted articles. There are a lot of SEO tips and interesting articles on internet marketing. But I would like to warn you that the process of search engine optimization is not as easy as it may seem to be. In fact, it requires a lot of skills, efforts and time to see results. Pay-Per-Click advertizing provides quick results, but you will have them until pay money.
1 week ago, I dont remember where, but I read that META tags actually don't really matter, is it true?
There is already a very good post on SEO in SEO section of the forum (forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=413544) by Dan Schulz Dan Schulz
That's a list of what the free 'seopressups' plugin does automatically. It's a freebie clone of seopressor, AFAIK.
1 . What do people search for? Think about what people are going to type to find your site. 2. Title tags matter. It's what the user first sees on Google results. 3. Don't worry that much about the keywords meta tag. 4. Use the meta description tag. It is often shown to web users when they search on Google. 5. Start a blog! Participate in the conversation. Doesn't have to be complex or fancy. Things that are interesting to you are probably interesting to your users/customers. Examples: What made you decide to start a small business? What were your weirdest customer experiences? 6. Find conversations using social media. Try digg and StumbleUpon. 7. You do not have to pay Google to get traffic from Google. Google crawls your website for free. Just make sure it can find your website. 8. Advertising on Google doesn't influence rankings. Buying advertising on Google does not influence search results.
