5 SEO Tips

Here are our 5 SEO Tips from Matt Cutts

If you don’t know Matt Cutts you can pull this from the first few lines over at Wikipedia
“Matt Cutts works for the Search Quality group in Google, specializing in search engine optimization issues.”

So he’s the seo guy for Google basically, im sure 95% of you know this, but there is a little note for the 5% that did not.

Well he’s given some useful tips, and we figured we would pick the top 5 or so that we think will help you in the near future. Since he’s very cryptic in the way he talks about certain subjects we’ve had to translate and compose this small list.

  1. When creating a url that mandates a space in the url try and use a – over the _ . Pretty simple really.
  2. He recommends using the <title> and description meta tag. Yet makes no mention of the keywords tag? (maybe keyword tags have no relevancy)
  3. Write, Post, Blog, or Creat Pages often to get more links
    Google likes link Diggs for the most part
  4. Reciprocal link exchanges are ok, but it is better to have one way links
  5. Don’t try to play the system and Google will not bother you

This may be somewhat controversial I believe there is a bit of truth in this idea. I’ve had countless sites that ranked for near nothing until I’ve purchased adwords ads.

The rankings are not gifts from Google for buying ads through them, but rather results of manually inspected site relevancy

If you you purchase ads for “blue widgets” then your ad will be “pending review” after the ad. Or keyword is manually reviewed a quality score is given. It is in my opinion that this score is then somehow used in the search algorithm.
Google would be dumb not to use this data, after they have spent time reviewing a website why not use it. A manually reviewed site must be a more accurate measure of a sites “keyword relevancy” than using backlinks and keyword density right?
