How are these SEO Tips?

I would call these marketing tips not SEO tips since they don't really have much to do with optimizing your site. But nice read nonetheless.

So, I'll just give my opinion of getting ranked in the SE's.

The key to SEO is doing proper keyword research. This is the foundation. And if you skimp on this part and you try to optimize your blog, articles, etc... for shabby keywords, you would have wasted a whole lot of time.

1. Know what your target audience is typing into the search engines. What are they looking for? What is their most pressing concerns on their minds?

2. After you got a list of potential keywords, check your competition in the search engines (se's). I start and end at Google since it's the biggest.

3. If you're doing a blog, you want to optimize it for your keywords. In the title, categories etc... Don't make it spammy but use words that are Interchangeable. For example don't always say MLM, use network marketing. Understand latent semantic indexing. Seo Book has good SEO training...get the free tutorials if they still offer them.

4. If you're doing web 2.0 content, like Squidoos and Hubpages, etc... Make sure you use your keywords in the title. Always tag your content on this sites with 5-6 keywords. Each tag represents a backlink to your content. And some tag pages for some of these web 2.0 sites rank well in the SE's.

5. The last step is to get backlinks that link to your blog and other web 2.0 properties with the anchor text(s) you want to rank for. You can also get backlinks the categories on your blog. Getting backlinks, quality backlinks is the way your content is going to move up in the search engines.

I absolutely agree with you.
You can save so much time if you optimized your site with the right keywords.
As an example, having the right 3 search phrases could net you additional search term results- giving you up to 10 or more positions combination of keywords rather than just the original 3.

This first tip about Target marketing is a good one for SEO as well.

If I get ranked for dancing squirrels and I'm trying to promote an opportunity, you'll get lower conversions vs getting a targeted keyword ranked.

About SEO tips...

1) Do keyword research well - the more time you spend on this the less time you'll waste
2) Create content related to that keyword
3) See how it ranks in Google
4) Decide if it's worth your time to get it ranked
5) If it is, start your backlink campaign ...if not, find another keyword to rank

Titles, descriptions, and content can be used to rank a page...but I could out rank a page with all of that without any of that - if that makes any sense.

that is nice discussion of top ten tips of search engine strategic ! !
Describe product, business service, information is user readable.

Deside area (Location as local service) add local search engine.

Web Design by categorize your site architecture and navigation based on your keyword anchor tag.

Link added (link exchange ) relevant web site & content

If you can optimize for local search (ie. Google Places), then it's a good idea to use non-PO boxes. This is one of the easiest ways to rank if your focus is on selling your products/services.

I don't agree with link exchanges...used to do that in the early-mid 2000's and I no longer do them. About site structure/architecture, internal linking is important, but external ranking factors can push you up faster than just tinkering with stuff on your site.

[Rosetta Grieco Company: YourNetBiz Contribution Level: 1]

Thanks Corisa,
Lots of valuable information there. I would just like to add when building backlinks to make sure it's not from "No-follow" sites as from my experience these don't seem to count.
