So here's the SEO tip:

Make a document that relates to housing prices in your area.  Or maybe it's about the contrast between mortgage rates and local land values.. whatever it is, use your keywords, have it be on subject.

You can do this with your word files, pdf's or other document formats and then put them on scribd.com

scribd.com is a new document sharing platform, you can also use it to embed documents on your website. 

See here where I've embeded my bait site report inside the page

http://yourfarmer.com/bait-sites

It means even if you can't publish to the web, you can upload a word file or pdf (tip 2 - get openoffice free, (yes it reads microsuck files) and you can save a word file out as a pdf ... again for free www.openoffice.org

The cool thing is that scribd is climbing quickly as a social network and PDF's are completely readable now.. so your documents will help your SEO and you can use traditional word and pdf files and display them on your site without a user having to download them.

Neat :)

Scribd is a very cool platform with some great functionality. You just need to know what to do with it. I don't think it is much of a social network though and I don't think they are going in that direction.
