SEO Tips – Dos and Don’ts for Beginners

by Jon Moreno | 2nd January 2010

More people have now experienced the advantages of doing business online. Although some are already successful in just months' time, others are still struggling to make their online business a success. Why? It is because they did not use a good SEO (Search Engine Optimization) campaign.

If you are new to online selling, you must know that a good SEO strategy will help you achieve greater site visibility in different search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN. This, in turn, will result to more traffic coming in to your site. Anyway, here are some SEO tips - dos and don'ts - for beginners like you.

1. Do not get a new domain unless it's necessary. It is always better to stick to your old domain because search engines determine how long your site has been up. If you purchase a new one, chances are you'll wait for some time before your site gains traffic and gets indexed in different search engines.

2. Do not optimize your site mainly for search engines. Optimize it for audience. Why? Because search engines alter their algorithms and often give priorities to web pages that are user-friendly.

3. Research your primary keywords and keyword phrases extensively. This is of primary importance in every SEO campaign. Why? Because getting no.1 in for example, Google for unrelated keyword will not bring your site any profit. Make sure you use long tail keywords instead of general terms so that visitors can easily find your site. You can use Google Adwords and other keyword generating tools to find the right keywords for your niche.

4. Content is king. So, make sure you write only unique, original, and high quality content. If you can't do this, you can hire writers to do content writing for a fee, let's say $3 for a 500-word article.

5. Do work on making your site a link worthy one. To do this, you must include news, tips, and high quality content on your site. Plus, make sure to educate your online visitors through the use of videos and collect feedback from them.

So, these are just some easy-to-follow SEO tips that you can keep in mind when you start your business online. For more SEO tips, visit www.lazyjon.com.
