There is no way I could begin to capture all the information here. Lot of it are pretty basic but that is because simple works. I used to run a 15 person internet advertising company up to about 8 years ago. I was there when all you had to do to get number 1 SEO placement for "Alaska" at WebCrawler was to put the word Alaska on the page about 500 times.

In the 15 years I did SEO things changed bunches but since I left to pursue real estate and other goals about 7 years ago not so much seems to have changed.

Writing a blog post, here are RainCamp's hot tips for getting Google Juice.

 

[Title]

  1. Must be geographically specific
  2. must be short and consise
  3. named after the phrase that you want to rank in the search engines

[Body]

  1. Keyword density 2% to 4%
  2. 300 - 500 words (if more break it up into a series)
  3. Start and end with the phrase you want to rank in the search engine
  4. 2 - 4 outgoing links
  5. Insert pictures for user experience (get traffic from Google - right name/keywords)

[Tags]

  1. This is your table of contents for your blog
  2. Helps organize your content
  3. Writemultiple articles about the same phrase (more than three articles in each tag)

 

Here are some examples of phrases:

  • place, state homes for sale
  • place vacant land
  • homebuilders in place
  • place waterfront homes

Okay you get the idea. Let's see if we can build the ultimate list of keywords and phrases which any of us could use in our individual areas.
