Great Source for SEO Info
By Joe Ferry on Feb 14, 2008 in Marketing Communications
I’m still learning when it comes to Search Engine Optimization. I’m smart enough to know it’s an important function for sales and marketing but not so smart that I know the difference between backlinks and cufflinks. Give me time.
Anyway, I’m searching the web the other day and I came across SEONoobs.com. I thought it said Boobs, which sounded perfect for me, so I clicked on it. No, I wasn’t searching for porn.
Ryan, the site’s founder, has built a tremendous following in just a month. He has more than 360 RSS subscribers and more than 40,000 unique visitors in his FIRST MONTH! The secret seems to be his ability to explain dense, complex topics in easy-to-understand concepts.
Take his piece on getting better rankings in Google: 5 Ways To Get a New Site Indexed In Google In 48 Hours Or Less. Four of his suggestions were pretty technical, so for now I’ll leave them for my SEO guru son to figure out. For me, the important idea was this: to get a higher ranking in Google searches, post good comments (emphasis on good) on popular blogs and include your website in the URL box. Concentrate on “DoFollow†blogs for maximum link popularity benefit.
Yeah, even a guy who thinks SERP is something you put on pancakes can do that!
