My credibility is at stake somewhat so I thought I would tell everyone how I get my information when it comes to the SEO stuff that I post here.
First of all....I don't believe there is anything that I've ever posted here that will HURT anyones business or website.
Second....The information that I list here is generally common sense stuff like building a "healthy" website with no broken links or orphan pages etc. and NOT subscribing to link farms or black hat practices etc.
I...like most, will either read Googles info or go on my own experiences OR listen to someone who's been there and gets paid big money to do what they do.
Yes....the Algorithms change constantly so what works today may not work tomorrow...I get that
That's why I don't list any "tricks" that Google will eventually find out about and spank your listing.
Anyway, like I just said it's important to just do the basics....have a good amount of useful info on your site for the person you are trying to sell to. You need to attempt to be an authority on whatever you are selling.
You need to be linked to by at least one website...and it's good to be linked to from other quality sites.
So where do I get my info?
I don't bring it up much here because I know it's worthless to say "I know a guy" unless I provide an introduction or proof or whatever.
But, it happens that I have a very good friend who builds computer programs for some multi million dollar companies. He has contracts with the Government and knows what he is talking about more than anyone I know on this subject...I can't even speak his language....which he knows 12 or some crazy thing (computer languages)
The guy is brilliant...everything he has told me works and he backs it up with his own testing of his sites and applies them to his clients.
He doesn't build pretty. He builds programs and SEO. He has so much education on this stuff that is blows me away.
Anyway, like I said...none of that means anything because I won't be giving up who the guy is...and you can bash me for that if you want...I'm just throwing it out there.
At the end of the day, it's just common sense what you do to get your website on Google.
The biggest secret is....there are no secrets.
