    The most important part, beyond anything else in SEO, is knowing where you are. You can’t go anywhere without knowing where you are. You can’t optimize something if you don’t know what you are optimizing. You can’t set goals if you don’t know where the starting line is. So where are you?

    Don’t Trick The Search Engines

    10 July 2007

    I think I’ve touched on this subject before, but the cycle seems to be coming to it’s beginning end. By that I mean, there seem to be chunks of time throughout the year when I see the a lot of new websites attempting the hidden text or becoming part of some link building scam in […]

    Well…everyone else is jumping on this so I thought I would; and try to give some detail. I’ll show you what additions have been made, and how this helps us all understand what Google does and does not want to see from a site.

    CSS and Google

    17 May 2007

    While we are discussing Google’s changes, I guess we should jump on the bandwagon and mention that they are now using CSS to clean up their homepage. We have talked before about CSS and it’s advantages for crawlability. So now, when you go to Google, and type in “Google,” Google will rank higher because of […]

    17 May 2007

    Google announced yesterday that they are taking the first steps in the new architecture that will allow for ‘universal search.’ Basically speaking, Google wants to provide a more robust results system, providing more than the traditional information provided by current searching.
    As released on the Google Blog, this new universal search will produce results that “blend […]

    Link Love To Clasione For a Great Post

    16 May 2007

    Ever since I moved the blog (and site) I have been playing a bit of makeup. What I mean is, I didn’t want to just drag all of the previous posts over, as some were outdated, and after reading them over, did not really get my seal of approval. So, I have been going through […]

    Sigh…I really didn’t want to blog about this at all. However, there is a huge uproar right now in the SEO world on the validity of directories in regard to links. Rand at SEOMoz made a few posts that prompted a few bloggers to bite. One post in particular (I’m going to fore go the […]

    Manicures and Martinis – Don’t Neglect Keyword Research

    26 July 2007

    I’ve been spending the last few days with a team of developers creating a keyword research tool. We are pulling the information from a great number of areas, and will be providing results in a somewhat manual process (you usually find that the more automated the keyword research process, the less integrity you get as […]

    What is SEO, and how important is it to my business?

This term is most commonly defined as “the method of modifying a site, it’s code, and it’s content, to achieve higher rankings in the search engines.” This definition is a bit vague, but put simply it is just that.

    Site Design, SEO, And A Real World Case

    9 July 2007

    The best part of my consulting, full time job, is the large amount of case study. So many times a week I’m shown a site that has an “odd” problem. And the neatest part is that I get to educate and discuss SEO with other up-and-coming SEO’s.
    Just last week, I was emailed a strange happening […]

    Header Tags and SEO

    2 July 2007

    I recently got to have discussions with a few other SEO’s, and there was a topic dear to my heart that became the highlight in discussion. That was the importance of H tags. It so happens that some SEO’s do not hold the header tags as important at all, even discounting their use all together. […]
