3. On Page SEO1. Semantic structure

1. One H1 on every page2. Appropriate use of headings

2. Unique title on every page1. Title contains key-phrase, to the left if possible.

3. H1 and title should complement, not match, for more variety / long tail.4. Keywords should appear in the on-page content

1. Use the SEObook toolbar to highlight a phrase2. Print off a page and use a highlighter to judge how hard you are pushing

optimisation. Too much highlighter, too much optimisation!5. Unique Description

1. Description is used to “sell the click” in the SERPs.6. Internal links use good anchor text.7. Site tag line is quick explanation of site

1. Could be useful as an anchor2. Takes 2 seconds for a new user to know what you're about

8. Aim for a maximum of two clicks to content on most sites.1. Three on big sites2. Study how demand media / Amazon / ebay handle MASSIVE sites

9. Pyramidal hierarchy or flat-file?1. Breadcrumbs (to give appearance of hierarchy and/or help pass further “juice” about

to important sections.2. Categories or tags – rarely both3. Previous / Next on articles4. Related posts on articles5. Important pages are linked to from the home page

10. Images have alternative text1. Text is not images!2. Image filenames contain appropriate keywords

11. Internal links are to the FQDN (in case of scrapping)1. Less than 200 links per page

1. Too much choice is paralysing 2. Unless very authoritative domain you risk spreading “the love” too thinly

2. Use text based navigation12. Comment spam is ruthlessly culled

1. Research their back-links2. Put their domain into the competitive research process

13. Code1. Remove in page formatting and use included style-sheets2. No frames!3. Does site validate? – but don't sweat the small stuff4. No script errors displayed to users5. Is JavaScript required?

1. If so, is it really necessary? 2. What do search engines see?

14. Nofollow untrusted external sites (comments)15. Use meta robots to keep internal pages out of the index with

noindex, follow

1. Approach with a standard personalised email3. Create your own resources section.

1. Eventually remove from the main navigation so you don't pour too much juice into it

15. Four way link exchanges1. I prefer these as intent is harder to infer, but obviously still discoverable from the

same problems as three way links.2. Owner of the network may not wish to play (competitive) or admit to network.

22. Spam link building1. Proviso

1. I feel spam can work for a while and then count against the site unless strong links are also being built

2. Spam is the monster that constantly needs feeding1. The links stop counting2. Competitors keep adding more

3. Eventually you can annoy a competitor enough that they 1. Hack your site.2. Build even more spammy links to you to trip filters.3. Rubbish you on review websites

4. With spam link building make sure it's undertaken by a “third party”1. Allows for plausible deniability if things go wrong2. Keep an audit trail of emails3. Be aware of IP footprints when submitting spam

2. Look for outliers in sites ranking in a particular SERP1. they may have no strong directory links2. have many more unique linking domains than average or appropriate for their

site3. have many more total links than average4. Clean profiles can also be found for their extra-strong-links, by looking at those

that rank with less links. These links should also be especially targeted5. When a network is discovered that is helping a poor site rank well

1. Consider buying links / submitting comments on it2. Consider buying links on it along with some of your competitors to kill the

network3. Consider using hundreds of thousands of links against it to kill it (either

pointing loads of links at it to trip filters or spam the site relentlessly)3. Investigate the outlier sites' back-links

1. If comments & forum posts add also other the sites dropping links there to your investigation1. Research all back-links using

1. Bing linkfromdomain:site and then 2. research those sites incoming links with yahoo linkdomain:site:3. If you're patient try the sites in Advanced Link Manager

5. Social Media1. More than just link building, social media may provide other benefits and problems

1. http://twitter.com/Spotify does CS and announcements5. Link building

1. Profile2. Stories that go hot3. Use your “votes” to supporting other sites / articles with links to you4. Regrettably many popular stories remain within social media and don't

expand into “real” links.6. Traffic7. Interbreeding

1. A popular or upcoming story on one network is often found then on others2. Sites

1. YouTube1. If you publish videos they will end up here. Republish them yourself to your

own channel and link back to the relevant page on your site.2. Videos here often get a spot in the SERPs

2. StumbleUpon1. Can provide lasting traffic over many months2. Don't “stumble” your own sites, develop a network to enter your pages.3. Top Stumblers are people who discover more new pages that go popular.

3. LinkedIn1. Professional networking.

4. Digg1. Small number of top diggers control most of the front page (FP)2. If they submit and promote a decent page it will usually go hot.

1. Promotion is the key, a network of diggers has to vote for the story3. Voting is very reciprocal4. Traffic large, but transitory

1. Getting a FP can gain interesting links5.

5. Twitter1. Profile is essential for Reputation Management2. Automate much of the grind with API + RSS feeds (Yahoo PIPES)3. Links tend to stay in Twitter and rarely gain “real” links

6. Social Bookmarking1. del.icio.us

1. Great for supporting pages with links to your own site.3. Techniques

1. Try to get the same username everywhere2. Have the same avatar on various sites even if the username has to differ3. Connect with people on the site that like the sort of stories and topics you want to

promote
