Here’s the SEO Advice I Gave to Dave:
The short version.
SEO is determined by:
- Inbound links…
- With the right anchor text…
- From the right web sites…
- To the right pages.
Having the right domain name helps. You want your primary keyword phrase in the domain name, but is not required.
You want your internal linking structure to reinforce inbound links from other sites. (So use the right keyword phrase when linking to a page within your site.)
Generally speaking, older domains rank better than newer domains.
Last but not least, have solid content on your site. When you’re trying to rank a page for a particular keyword phrase, it helps if that phrase is in the page title and an h1 tag. It also helps if the keyword appears a few times on the page.
But all these things bow to inbound links.
I’m no SEO expert… it’s not what I do for a living… but I’ve managed to get 1st page Google rankings for a number of competitive keyword phrases. So I know this formula works.
This Really Is the Short Version of SEO
I recently wrote an in-depth report on SEO and it rang in at 34 pages. I named this report “Free Traffic: The Layman’s Guide to SEO.”
I may be selling this report in the near future. But first, I’m going to give it away FREE if you sign up for SEO Link Vine through my affiliate link.
This is a brand new service. I just signed up for SEO Link Vine myself, and it will probably end up being a resource that I recommend in my SEO report.
So I figured: instead of selling this report to you for a price, why not give it away free when you sign up for one of the tools I believe is going to help you get better rankings?
Here’s what to do right now: Purchase SEO Link Vine through this link. Then email me your receipt at rhealy@gmail.com. I will immediately forward you a copy of my brand new SEO report.

P.S. If you want better rankings, I truly believe this new service combined with my report will help you immensely. Purchase through this link and you’ll get my SEO report for free: http://www.LinkVine.net

SEO is really a very complicated issue among newbie in IM.Everyone want to get a good search engine ranking.SEO can be categorised in 2 part : On Page SEO & Off Page SEO.
1) For One Page SEO, first of all you need to do a keyword research. After that, put the keywords in the Headings ( H1 & H2 tag ), Metatag ( Title tag, Description & Keywords ).
2) Use the keywords inside your blog post. Don't overdo it. Keyword density should be 1-3%.
3) Bold the keywords
4) Internal links. Use the keywords to link to other pages on the site.
For Off Page SEO, you need to build links to your site.
1) Exchange links with popular site & those who are relevant to your niche/product.
2) Build one way link thru blog/forum commenting.
3) Article Marketing. Put your link at the author box.
