-> Publishing editorial content off your website? Articles, guest posts, forums, press releases, etc. are incredible methods to increase exposure for you and your website. The key is to create meaningful and valuable content that provides a good user experience. Avoid plugging irrelevant, obnoxious keywords in your content (including your titles, anchor text, and Resource Boxes). Provide seamless grammatical structure and flow by publishing quality, original content that best represents your brand.
-> Be consistent with your brand. From your social media pages, to your articles, and to your guest content, create strong brand signals. The stronger the signal, the better your ability to be searched by users.
-> Hiring an SEO Company and/or ghostwriting service? Shop smart! Seek out live examples of their work or services by asking for article portfolios, websites, and more to ensure they're the right fit for you and your brand. It doesn't stop there! Once hired, ensure they don't puke your links across the Internet! Discuss the strategy, review their work, provide feedback, and dismiss them if they don't deliver.
-> Posting social media, forum, and blog comments? Don't spam and don't automate comments. Create hearty relationships with those you follow, your followers, and of course anywhere you post comments and links. Connect with the author or users by providing relevant and specific feedback.
-> Clean up your backlink profile. Routinely sample links by conducting a backlink analysis and review where your traffic is coming from. Are the links coming from high-quality websites? Do they relate to your website? How's the user experience on these links? Anything lackluster? Remove or request removal of those links. (Register with Google Webmaster Tools to better understand your website's health and to be alerted if something is amiss.)
-> Don't buy links, participate in link schemes, and force your links. If you've hired an SEO firm or a backlink service, then make sure they're not purchasing links on your behalf or participating in link schemes. Avoid forcing links by ensuring wherever you post your links, it's relevant and you've provided quality context.
-> Provide a great user experience. Above all, the user should be front and center in all of your efforts. Don't disappointment them with fruitless, experience-spoiling tactics. A better quality experience will lead to more conversions and more exposure.

DB Developer/Tech, Affiliate IM@Patty, you must Register with Google Webmaster Tools, due to NO posting of links, just search it you'll find it. Then you may inter the website in question. Their are tons of features including removing unwanted back links that appear to be detrimental. When a page is updated or removed, it will automatically fall out of their search results. You don’t need to do anything to make this happen. I'm surprised more folks are not aware of this fantastic tool? Enjoy. If you have more questions please DM me, however I'm the perfect NON-guru on such matters. Cheers. Mar 13th 2013 19:18 |
This is excellent advice William. Thank you so much for sharing. I do have one question for you though... How do I find my back link profile? That is the only area in your post that I am not familiar with. Thanks again for sharing!
