    Hi,

    The basics of SEO are easy, but time and time again many people (like me) make the same mistakes, mistakes that will restrict your blog’s ability to rank highly on search engines. The good news is that many of these mistakes are fairly easily sorted out.

    1. Not having a unique title tag on every page
    2. Not using H1 - H6 tags correctly
    3. Using “click here” or “read more” for anchor text
    4. Not providing Google with a site map
    5. Not targeting the right keywords
    6. Not putting alt text and image titles on images
    7. Writing the Meta description for search engines and not humans
    8. Using too many keywords in the meta-keywords
    9. Not building enough links
    10. Having multiple URLs for the same page
