Hi,
Have you tried any and everything to get the search engines to give your site a higher ranking? Why aren't you getting the outcomes you want, then? There exist brand new owners of websites whose attempts at getting increased in the search engine rankings don't work because they don't do what they're required to. The search engine rules are always being altered, and so are the optimization techniques to get your site ranked. If you are aiming to beat your competitors and maintain the first listing for Google, it's best not to make the mistakes you're about to read about. Avoiding these mistakes will increase your chances for success, even if you don' t have money to invest.

Number one mistake: terrible on-site SEO, it not only helps you rank well but helps your visitors navigate your site better. This is one of the only elements of SEO that you have complete control over. On-page SEO is basically how everything on your site is organized. On-site navigation is actually the easy part of SEO, you want to pay attention to your navigation, ALT tags, header tags, and file names. You need to be sure to add your keywords to the page titles, in the navigation, and in the ALT tags. Don't skip over this part of SEO. Although on-site SEO is very simple, it has to be done; don't worry though because we are about correct a problem that most websites are making.

Internal linking is the ext big problem. It's difficult to control how other sites link to you, but you have total control when it comes to linking your internal pages. Linking strategy is a gem that is not even employed by most and you can reap the rewards of having higher page rankings. Most people focus on creating links that send their visitors someplace else. This is an under applied SEO method that is proven to produce results. And what makes it so great is that these are permanent results, not temporary. Look at Wikipedia; even though it has a lot of external links, it has smartly inter-linked all the articles, which obviously gives the site the link juice it needs.

Ignoring or overlooking the guidelines offered by the search engines is a big mistake.
That's why it's essential that you learn what those guidelines are so that you never make mistakes that penalize you with search engines. The search engines are always changing their guidelines so make sure you check out the updates as often as you can so you can stay in their good graces. One example you can look at is Google, which changes the algorithm is uses all the time, and that's why you must look at these changes whenever they occur so your site doesn't lose its rank. In conclusion, there are many different elements which go into making your SEO successful. Don't fall for the promises made by 'blackhat' SEO tactics that say you'll see instant search engine results, especially since none of those techniques will benefit you in the long term. So you should always concentrate on whitehat SEO that not only offers a long term solution but also brings in traffic that you can count on, without getting your site banned.
