SEO / Search Engine Optimization
The following are primarily brief summaries in outline form, intended
to give you a quick, easy look at some of the factors that may be
taken under consideration for scoring. Please don't take it to mean
that all have to be used. Moderation is always the safer, more sensible
way.
Beginners Quick-Start Guide to SEO
Note: Detailed information and "articles" will
be added throughout the Fall months to flesh out the content in
this section and make those pointers clearer. But since search algos
change all the time, it's not possible at any given time to say
exactly what's working or isn't. What works today may not work next
week or after the next update.
The best way to keep up with what the search engines are currently
using for rankings is to examine the top 10-20 search results with
those pointers in mind, to see first hand what seems to have more
or less importance at the moment. Being able to dissect and analyze
are really the most important skills to acquire, and are a reliable,
valuable personal skillset that's long lasting over time.
