Over-Optimization vs Optimization • Yoast by Bob Stovall

Over-Optimization vs Optimization by Joost de Valk on 19 March, 2012 at 16:10 39 comments So Matt said something at SXSW last week about Google introducing a filter / penalty / change. As my inbox is already overflowing with emails from people asking whether they should stop optimizing their site and/or using my plugin, I thought I’d do a quick post. What Matt said was vague at best but he said one thing that leaves little room for speculation: All those people doing, for lack of a better word, over optimization or overly SEO – versus those making great content and great site. via Over-Optimization vs Optimization • Yoast.

Two ways to get #1 Google ranking by Bob Stovall

Have you ever imagined how much traffic you can get if your WordPress blog is ranked #1 in Google? Do you want to know a simple little trick that does this all automatically? If so, then this may be the most important blog post you’ve ever read. When we talk about optimizing a website, there are two different schools of thought. There are people who give more currency to on-page factors and then there are those who talk more about off-page factors. People who talk about on-page factors speak more about things like keyword optimization,using the right title tags, using less HTML, using the right fonts and images etc.,… Those who believe more in off-page factors won’t give much regard to all these points, but they will think more about generating more traffic through backlinking and other similar methods. Now, the big question is – which of these schools of thoughts is correct? Let us put it this way – if all your on-page factors are in order and if you just get one backlink for your website, then you have everything that might take you to #1 on Google.

Is your website losing you sales? Money? by Bob Stovall

A Website Review can increase your business and save you moneyIf your website has been around a while (or was recently created by an amateur web developer), you may be losing out on search engine ranking. You may also be losing money if the website is ineffective at bringing customers into your business. Why? Even a website created by a professional a few years ago may need updating of both visible and invisible elements as the algorithms of the search engines are constantly being tweaked to provide their searchers with better results and a better user experience. I am constantly amazed at the number of websites that have been around for several years and do not appear at all in search engine results for their most important keywords. This is like having beautiful signage for your business stored in a shed and none on your building. How do you think that would work for you? Here are just a few of the shortcomings that could be revealed in a Website Review: Poor content – often caused by unfocused text that tries to do too many things on one page. Remember the mantra “One page, purpose.” Page titles that don’t match [...]
