Most Overlooked Simple SEO Techniques to Solve On-Site Issues - Part 2

published by Dan in SEO Basics with 4 Comments

Realising that the impacting of addressing on-site issues with the use of simple techniques I have decided to come up with a second part. Here are more SEO techniques you should make sure you never overlook.

• Using the alt tag to label important images. You should always lable images that are really relevant to your content so that the engines will know what the image is about.
• Using generic analytics tools. I personally endorse Google Analytics although any other general analytics tool like Indextools will do. Just make sure you have something to help you track the actual results of your SEO efforts.
• Performing a simple IP location test. The results will show you where your main market is located so that you can make sure that you are hosted near it.
• Pinging major content aggregators like Google Blog Search and My Yahoo. Sure the website will probably be crawled some time or another but pinging never does any harm and speeds up the proccess.
• Taking advantage of social media especially the major platforms like Digg, Technorati, del.ico.us and more. It might not optimise your page in technical terms but it really does help generate traffic.
• Using Feedburner. Feedburner is very useful not only in automatically generating universal RSS feeds for the website but also provides you with useful stats.

Now that we’re done just make sure you implement what you’ve read because the biggest mistake an SEO consultant or web designer can make is not overlooking these techniques but ignoring them altogether.
