The SEO Factor Blog is a supplement designed to provide up to date information on Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Website Promotion. As a compliment to our promotion and optimization services, we also like to keep others informed so as to spawn a greater understanding of SEO and search engine placement. Read more about SEO Factor here.

Or goal with SEO Factor is to provide an affordable service with real results. We certainly don’t mean to speak in ill manner towards other companies specifically, but there are some that are charging a lot for submissions, or some other service that doesn’t require an exchange of funds. Our goal with the blog is to share information. SEO almost sells itself in complexity and importance. Anyone can do it. But to be effective you need experience, proven methods, and time to spend on it. Most business owners can not neglect their business to achieve these. With the blog, we have an avenue where we can fully disclose any news, methods, and ideas. There should be no secrets in SEO.

November 6th, 2006 So often I speak in first person. Not really known by the public, the SEO Factor team is actually more than just myself sitting in my underwear smashing away at the keyboard. So I wanted to shed some light on other members that make up this family, and give them a chance to let their voice be heard.

First up is Alysson Fergison. Some background. I have spoken time and time again…

November 2nd, 2006 To continue with my recent rants on alt tags, their importance, and proper use, I wanted to further my stance on this subject with Google backing me.

October 27th, 2006 If I have to talk about alt tags one more time this month….I will have to….talk about alt tags one more time this month. But I’m not happy about it. Maybe it’s my geographic location, maybe it’s poor training, maybe it’s a shift in the space / time continuum, but whatever it is, we can’t seem to settle on this subject. Well, maybe this will help out.

It is not only my…
