One Day SEO
I know that a lot of you don't want to put a lot of time into marketing or SEO, but instead want to focus on running your online business. Hiring someone to come on board isn't for everyone, especially if you are just getting started and don't have a lot of cash to throw around. For those of you looking for a quick fix, Conversation Marketing posted 9 quick SEO upgrades that you can make today in order to help you make a jump up the rankings. Let's take a quick look:
1. Directories - If you can, get yourself listed in Yahoo or other major directories. The important thing is an editorial review so spam sites are not included.
2. Reduce Links - Every page of your site probably does not need to link to an about us page, contact us, privacy policy, terms of service, etc... This wastes valuable link juice that you could be sending to paging you actually want to rank well.
3. Set up Google Webmaster Tools - this will help you find any errors Google has seen on your site. From duplicate titles and meta tags to crawl errors. Plus you can add your sitemap to help get more of your pages indexed.
