| Member | Can anyone sum up SEO for me please!
Ok here's the plan! I am about to launch a site called GetQuotes.co.uk Its home page will have 16 buttons & descriptions for Loan quotes, mobile phones, mortgages, holidays, insurance, electrical goods, games & consoles etc etc etc you get the idea! Each of the 16 buttons will then link to a page with that subjects service providers adverts on We get paid affiliate money when the visitor clicks the link or completes a sale as a result of clicking through from GetQuotes to them... I am about to have the site built by a friend who does it for a living but he is very busy and said SEO isn't that hard its just time consuming Can anyone please give me a run-down on how it works and how to make my site 'right' from the begining ANY Good Advice Much appreciated!!! Thanks in advance Matt <a href="http://www.getquotes.co.uk" target="_blank">Loan quotes, credit cards, insurance quotes & more Get Quotes</a></div>

yes, SEO friendly URLS. This site has them, using a code modification. It allows the SE to have some idea what the individual pages are about, rather than just the homepage. Make your meta tags etc specific to the subject of each page too. Some web design packages allow you to set this for the home page and then apply the same thing to every page of the site. Example SEO freindly URL: http://www.acorndomains.co.uk/namedrive.html Now type "namedrive" into Google.....and look for this page.

Lots of original content. Fresh content. Content that is highly relevent to, and uses in key places such as titles and link text, currently popular relevant search phrases. Authoritative content. Content which makes your site the best (current and comprehensive) resource on the internet. Content which makes yours the most relevant and useful site that the user entering the search terms you are targeting could hope to be directed to by the search engines. SEO can be approached by either hard work, or (more difficult) technical means, or a combination of the two. | |

be realistic about your keywords! don't expect to get instant google serps for "insurance quotes" (comp 69.5 million) water them down for more niche phrases "young drivers insurance quote" (comp 6.8 million) etc... optimise for 1 or 2 phrases per page... getting found for 25 phrases on your homepage just isn't going to happen! consider buying a decent link on a high page ranked directory (yahoo, msn, etc.. ) stay away from cheap pr links on ebay! quality inbound links help a lot! don't expect overnight success... your up against some tough competition.. keep working at it.. (spend an hour a day marketing your site & building links) take a few risks... the common sense whitehat stuff (title tags, keyworded file names, keywords in links.. etc etc...) just isn't enough anymore... search a few blackhat forums... until your organic search results kick in... consider contextual advertising or buying a few traffic domains on here..... oh... if you decide to buy any seo services... beware of anyone guaranteeing page 1 google results! beware of any UK seo company....they usually only do the basics + submissions... at least the ones I've worked for anyway  |

Well the advice on here is outstanding but all a bit above my head!!! Any real SEO experts on here fancy joining forces? Help with the SEO in return for a %age of the revenue, could be more than one person we could have a team, combining thoughts and ideas, all with a monetary stake in making GetQuotes work...??? Anyone up for a challenge?!
