This is an infographic about current SEO thinking with tips and tools to help sites rank better on search engines.
Most people have a general idea of how to optimize their content for search engines. That search engine algorithms are proprietary and evolving inevitably causes different opinions on SEO. Of course there’s another school of thought that minimal keyword research and a green-light from a SEO plugin are enough to publish a piece.
This infographic challenges writers and some of the preconceived notions about SEO. It has a mixture of tips and tools to help you rank better in search... Via Lauren Moss, John Boitnott
Martin (Marty) Smith's insight:
Marty's 5 SEO Writing Tips I've written about how to write for humans and spiders extensively at http://scenttrail.blogspot.com/2009/03/seo-writing-2.html , but here are 5 "quick SEO Writing tips" to add to this excellent infographic: * Short Sentences - helps eliminate connections (and, but, thus, so). * Short paragraphs - helps humans read online. * Use subheads (H2s) - Only ONE H1, but you can have multiple H2s.
You may not know about "stop words". I was taught to gauge quality score by putting total words on the top and stop words on the bottom. If you have 10 words with 5 stop words you would have a "quality" score of 2.

Great comment MizWalidah. I wold modify one point. Instead of "continually optimizing your meta keywords and tags" I would find ways to ping in fresh content such as User Generated Content from reviews or comments. Once a website I've SEOed is inside of Google's algorithm changing meta values that matter (mostly the page's title) can HURT SEO. I change titles VERY VERY carefully since the first rule of SEO is DO NO DAMAGE. The QDF (Quality Deserves Freshness) movement post Panda and Penguin LOVES it when a page pings, so I love the 1% of visitors who are willing to comment, review or otherwise contribute User Generated Content.
I DON'T play with meta nearly as much as you imply since to do so can look SPAMMY and cause real harm. The most important idea is creating content other people want to share. This is why I love GAMES and CONTESTS especially for bands. High engagement content such as Contests and Games can help with SEO and they can help create a distinct brand all bands need. Appreciate your enthusiasm, but be careful about meta (especially title) changes. Marty

Advanced SEO I too studied SEO Siloing with Bruce Clay, but social was just beginning when I studied SEO with Clay. These Russell Wright videos are a not so subtle pitch, but, for a change, there is real intelligence and genius inside the pitch.

I've often said that the best use of Twitter is as a broadcast medium. You should be creating a ton of interesting content and sharing it with your followers.

I need to get a LOT better at writing titles that draw people in! It's an important element - but at the same time, the smart, funny titles that are more like headlines, don't do as well for SEO organic results imho |
