Hi Ruth,

Things do stay on internet it's a fact, but that being said I don't feel that people need to be overly concerned either.

Just like in the real world, there will always be people who like you and people who don't.

While what you said is true, especially due to the Facebook policy, but nonetheless, removing the content there will be a great start...

Hi Sheila,

One of the most important thing when it comes to SEO is truly staying up to date with the latest information and happening.

What helped your site a few years ago may actually harm it today...

Blogs are favored by search engines and thus are the most crawled type of site you can create, this is why it is always strongly recommended to include one in your site if it's not a blog type already.

No, this kind of links as very low value and is of very little help.

Although not specified in this article as it's not the main subject, it is of course intended and expected for each inbound link to have a proper anchor text if possible.

Freshness of queries and information is becoming increasingly popular recently, so we all should leverage on this as far as possible.

I don't know if that's the best free traffic you can get, but it sure is a good source of traffic indeed.

The biggest problems people have to face when doing SEO is time. SEO is just so time consuming, but when you consider that all you need to do here is write an article and submit it and everything else with happen by itself.. I just can't say no to that. ^_^

Hi Petra,

Maybe this is because you are trying too hard to write something or you are in a niche that is not so interesting for you.

Just write as it goes without thinking too much, I found that people tend to like the natural style better as long as you have valuable and useful information to share with them.

Absolutely, and the best part is truly the leverage you get, I mean you write one article submit it and it will spread more and more over time... all while you are doing something else!

Hi Samantha,

You're most welcome. I think it's important to write in ways that everybody can understand rather than just a few in the know...

Well at least if not for the link quality, you can get a decent amount of traffic from article marketing is those are well written.

Hi Jefferson,

Thank you for taking the time to comment. Google itself says it, "write for your readers not for the search engines" that said it all for me.

It depends of the directories, but generally speaking yes it's free to submit articles. In fact you even can find a lot of free article submitters tools too.

Quality content applies to all types of sites, but when it comes to blogging it's more important than ever!

A blog is about readership, if people read your blog it's successful, if they don't it's a failure.

If your content quality doesn't compel your readers to come back or refer others to it, then you are doing something wrong.

Hi Ravi,

This is so true indeed and what I teach to my readers. SEO doesn't end with a search ranking only.

What's the point of having traffic to your site that bounced off immediately?

I have to be honest, I'm not a big fan of building links, I find this boring.

Now backlinks are very important don't get me wrong, but indeed just by providing quality content you can generate sufficient buzz around to bring your site to a very good level.

My content was enough to have SEO people with sites PR6 ask me for advice while mine was only PR1. In fact I have many posts with higher PR than my homepage, and people with PR4 ask me to trade links with them and not the opposite.

Through natural linking, my site has thousands of backlinks for which I did nothing more that writing content with my readers in mind.

Just like I said in this post, I write for readers more than search engines, here on Peter's blog most of my guest posts are in the most commented section...

So even if the SEO is not that great on the posts themselves, I'm sure as a business value it counts for something...

And considering that Google relies more and more on trying to find what people really like rather than what an algorithm determine, this won't get by unnoticed.
