The Best SEO Firms Practice What They Preach
|
| One of our employees was at a recent SEO roundtable discussion where an inquiring mind asked "how do you find the best SEO company?" Another member of the discussion replied by saying "look at the company's SEO. It's like hiring a personal trainer; you would want to look for someone who was in good shape." The truth is the best SEO firms are ones that take the same advice they give to their clients and apply them to their own business. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE |

How to Keep Your Anchor Text Linking Natural
|
| The Google Penguin update has been around for a little while now. We've all come to terms with what has changed and understand that certain link building practices simply are no longer acceptable. Using keywords in anchor text throughout published content has always been recommended SEO practice. Instead of linking to meaningless words like "click here", it actually told the search engine spider what that page was about. However, as time went on Google found that this practice was being abused and over-used, which is why Penguin is also considered to be a penalty for "over optimization". What's important to understand is that anchor text linking shouldn't be eliminated from your SEO strategy entirely. Anchor text links are still OK as long as they are "natural". Of course the absolute most natural way to do things would be to not have a plan at all. But as SEOs, we're planners right? CLICK HERE TO READ MORE |
