Hello, My name is Shannon and I have been making money online for the last several years. I am dedicated to showing everyone I can how to replicate my blogging success. I work very hard and I have been featured on some of the biggest blogs on the net, you can 
I haven’t done a SEO related post in a while so today I wanted to take some time and list of the top 5 seo tips you can apply to any website or blog you may have.
1. I suggest you re-work your title to contain you most important keywords. My main keyword (where all my traffic comes from is “making money online”). Do some basic keyword research to ensure your titles are aimed for good keywords that you actually have a chance to rank for!
2. Make sure you install the “All In One SEO Pack” plugin if your using wordpress as your blogging platform.
3. Use images to your advantage, you probaly won’t get better rankings fro “Alt Tags” on your images but you can get traffic from them so use them anyhow to ensure your listed in the image results!
4. Ask friends with similar blogs / sites to link to you. It never hurts to ask!
5. Be willing to wait, wait and wait again! When it comes to SEO don’t ever rush things, if you do things right you should slowly move up the rankings and google will not penalize you if you move up slow because its organic!
I hope you have enjoyed these tips, comment below with anything you want to add!

You ever look up Platinum SEO? It does more stuff that All in one SEO: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/platinum-seo-pack/
December 9th, 2008 at 12:11 am
You forgot commenting on other blogs
December 9th, 2008 at 2:43 am
Point number 5 was absolutely right. SEO won’t give you much traffic in the beginning but if you keep doing it for some time, you’ll surely find that a major chunk of your traffic comes from search engines. Nice post.
December 9th, 2008 at 4:23 am
Good post.
Though most of the points are already well known, still it refreshes.
If you could elaborate on keyword research in your next post(s), it would be awesome.

Actually commenting on other blogs does not do a whole lot seo wise, the blogroll links are way better (trust me) I know!
As to keyword research I can make a small post / video on how to do that, its not that hard and its well worth the few minutes to do so!
December 9th, 2008 at 11:07 pm
All good reminders … commenting on blogs is good for your “off-site” SEO if it’s do-follow and you use good anchor text. *SmiLes* Suzanne
December 10th, 2008 at 12:35 am
Shannon dude – Get your facts right.. You just can’t get a link into the blog roll until you don’t know the owner of the blog. and second.. You cannot sell the blogroll links since it isn’t allow by Google(Remember John Chow? From PR7 to PR3 and from Page 1 to Page 6). But if its the top commentators widget.. Its fine
Though going throw the recent Google TOS would be BETTER than just adding the Top Commentors Widget and making your blog do follow. 
December 10th, 2008 at 4:50 am
I do love the “All in One SEO Pack” for WordPress. Although waiting isn’t fun, it is necessary to see results. Thanks for the great post!
December 10th, 2008 at 5:00 am
Good article plus link to good sites plus catchy title or heading of your site will drive traffic to your site.
December 10th, 2008 at 10:05 am
@Alex Fraiser
I have never heard of Platinum SEO before but anyway, thanks for sharing.
December 10th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
Monty – I never said anything about buying or selling links? That is obviously a HUGE no no to Google and I would never do that. The Top Commentors widget is simply to help out my readers, as long as you all continue to comment I don’t really care about my pagerank at all.
December 10th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Let me give you some tips on how to manage SEO on your website.
1. Do the best keyword analysis and select the keywords which has good search volume and should be relevant to your website content.
2. Create content which has good keyword density in it and please make a note that content should be fresh, as google likes fresh content.
3. After creating website, please do focus on Meta tags of your website, which helps you get quick ranking for your targetted keywords.
December 11th, 2008 at 4:45 pm
Gotta say I love All In One SEO pack too … just makes thing so much easier!
As regards meta tags … isn’t the jury out on that one?
December 12th, 2008 at 11:16 am
Let me give one tip.
For seo we should reduce using , and &npsp tags.
December 15th, 2008 at 10:52 am
I have never heard of Platinum SEO before but anyway, thanks for sharing.
December 15th, 2008 at 10:52 pm
Good reminders Shannon. I have been using “All In One SEO Pack” for sometime now and I must say it is one of the best one out there.
December 16th, 2008 at 9:31 pm
I’m also a big fan of All in One SEO .. That’s the first plugin I install on every blog I build. Any blogger not using it should definitely check it out.
December 17th, 2008 at 10:54 am
Nice work man..keep it up.
December 29th, 2008 at 7:36 pm

January 13th, 2009 at 12:20 pm
Great tips especially the one about waiting. New sites now have to age a bit before they can expect decent rankings. It takes time but I agree the methods are important, never try to deceive the search engines…ever…be careful to do everything with the aim of offereing good content the engines will eventually reward you
January 22nd, 2009 at 3:23 pm
i prefer to use All in one seo pack than platinum seo plugin
January 27th, 2009 at 6:38 am
I have found that on site optimization really helps increase ranking place… your tip about title optimization is one of the most important areas of focus, also making sure your URL has your target keywords and nothing else does wonders for SEO… Very helpful article.. Thanks!
January 29th, 2009 at 2:32 am
Your tips are nice, keyword did a important roll in SEO, but you forget to say about dofollow commenting on another blogs, it ‘ll increase traffic to your web site.
January 30th, 2009 at 2:25 pm
I totally agree with All In One SEO Pack, this plugin has been helping me so much since I use WP for the first time in the early of 2007, and I never disappoint with it
February 11th, 2009 at 8:34 pm
The article was very informative and I hope that I will get such good article in future also. I often read your articles and will also read in future. But what do you think about automated seo?
February 14th, 2009 at 12:21 am
I still have to apply point #4 and #5 since I am kinda new to this SEO stuff. Glad I have land here
February 17th, 2009 at 4:02 pm
The way which u formed the post is amazing even layman can understand some thing from the above post. i would like to add one point to the above post.
“Never try to dump the duplicate pages in search engine if you find them try to remove it as early as possible other wise it may result in low ranking”.

March 21st, 2009 at 8:51 pm
Thanks for the list. I like number four, about asking friends to link you. I don’t know why I never thought about that before.
March 25th, 2009 at 11:33 am
how we can use &npsp tags in our blogs and is this useful for our blog or not.
March 31st, 2009 at 11:38 am
this great tips is a must for promoting your website. all in one seo pack do everything about title and description. but I think tho most important is the 5th tip.
April 3rd, 2009 at 12:11 pm
As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.
April 4th, 2009 at 1:46 pm
Thank you for the info ..
I really need to collect more information’s about the Blogger updates.

April 13th, 2009 at 11:09 am
I have to agree with your last point, in SEO patience is the key to a successful campaign.
April 14th, 2009 at 2:54 pm
My biggest problem is the slow part.
Patience is not my strong point.
April 14th, 2009 at 6:21 pm
I agree, SEO is a slow boring, but lso rewarding process.

i think onsite SEO helps build the foundation, but you won’t get any traffic without some serious link building.
May 9th, 2009 at 2:18 pm
Comment on other blogs, participate in forums, submit your content to social book marking sites and exchange quality links with others web masters.
In short get more and more quality inbound links pointing to your site and wait.
May 9th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
thanks for sharing
im stil learning about SEO
May 20th, 2009 at 9:12 pm
As far as tip #3 is concerned I would go as far as making sure that the image is also saved under the description. Example: alt=’cat’ and cat.jpg
I am not sure if it helps… but it doesn’t hurt to take the time to rename some images from 1234.jpg to the actual name of what it is.
Till then,
Jean

I really like your final tip as SEO is the process for improving your site very gradually if it comes specially about “organic”. You must wait for your output may be few days or few months.
June 5th, 2009 at 4:23 pm
Pretty good information for newbies, here I found another interesting article How does Search Engine Optimization Work?

The “alt images” suggestion is a great one as you can get some excellent traffic from Google Images. Just make sure you only use your keywords for the image and rotate the keywords a bit for multiply images on the same page.
August 19th, 2009 at 6:38 am
