Google's Best SEO Tips

From time to time something comes up that reminds me of the good old days when I was still in school, all I had on my mind was the next party and getting good enough grades to stay there and not be drafted.  I wasn't afraid of those little fellas in SE Asia, I just had other plans. (I ended up going there as a young marine anyhow!)

But I was always a good student of History, English and American Literature, subjects that came rather easily, and these were the studies of the kind where I was able to make up the ground I lost in math, and foreign languages.  So now, when I see informative articles such as Google's Best SEO Tips Ever a little bell goes off in my head – this is the kind of stuff that gets pasted on the mirror in my bathroom – reference material, timeless stuff that you know you will be tested on – time and time again!

I recall that when the teacher announced an upcoming test in one of those subjects I wasn't particularly good at, I would slump over like I had been punched in the gut, only to perk up again when that announcement was followed up with – it's an OPEN book test! Yessss, a chance to boost that marginal grade of mine into a respectable one. Open Book, My favorite kind of exam!

And that's what my friend DiTesco at the iblogZone has generously provided us aspiring-to-be-bloggers with, an "open book" test on how your blog can pass the biggest exam ever given to someone who wants to make money online. Not only pass it but get an "A" grade on our Google U. report card,  Yeah, "A" as in algorithm!

I would advise any blogger, especially new ones to pay particular attention to this information as it contains the key to Google's Holy Grail and it can serve you well as a guide to navigating the complex world of search engine optimization. Simplified, SEO is the key to obtaining traffic and traffic is the measure of your success as a blogger.

But there is always a dark side to every challenge and in school not everyone was able to pass, even those easy open book tests, I don't understand it myself but there were those who had the answers right in front of them, yet still didn't make the grade.

Don't you be one of those people, seize this guide NOW, print it out, nail it on the wall by your PC and light candles to it for the shrine that it is.  Don't be one of those people who are provided with a "book" that has all the answers but don't take advantage of it.  Any questions?

Thanks again to Francisco at the iblogzone for this great post!

  • Hi Dick, I'm constantly finding things to "paste up on the mirror" over at DiTesco's blog. It's a great place to expand your knowledge. Thanks for the tip. I'll check out the post. BTW - It's looking great over here at your place too!
  • Thanks, I appreciate that very much! Yes, I too have a bulletin board with magnetic strips (link addresses) from his blog I use as reminders.
  • SEO really isn't as complicated as it sounds. It's more a matter of sorting out the real stuff from the fluff, IMO. And that's coming from someone who studied English Literature in university, not engineering ;)
  • Me too Anne! Maybe it's our training in literature that let's us sort out the real stuff quicker. Thanks for your comment!
  • Wow. Very well put Dick. Having a book that has all the answers and not taking advantage of it, is just like having the knowledge and not taking action. In both scenários this is nothing but "useless". I believe that there are those who stand out, simply because they have the will to learn and take action on it. Those who do will succeed and those who don't, well, what can I say:) Thanks for this special mention. I really appreciate it.
  • Well, the open book test analogy just struck me, and it is sad sometimes when people have everything they need to succeed yet don't seem to be able to take action.
