3) Build Sites for Visitors Rather than Search Engines
The methodologies may have changed over the years, but the same principles have always applied to "good" or “white hat” SEO. Build sites for humans, not search engines. Make the site as user friendly as possible, avoid the bells and whistles and include high quality, relevant content.
Wherever possible, include text-based content and navigation menus with simple, descriptive, well-written copy designed to convert your visitors into customers. Include keywords and phrases your audience would logically type in to search engines to find sites like yours. Only link to sites that are relevant to your target audience and spend some time on usability, making sure all your forms and shopping carts work.
Remember that what pleases a visitor is almost always what pleases a search engine too.

Web Address: Make 2007 The Year For You
This year around a quarter of small businesses will go bust. Most of the rest will lumber on, much as they did in 2006, coming nowhere near their true profit potential.Then there'll be the few who will do exceptionally well. Their achievement won't be an accident. The owners of these businesses will be approaching life with a totally different mindset and strategy to the rest.How to ensure you achieve good results in 2007?1. It seems obvious, but don’t try to sell what your customers do not want. If something is not right it needs fixing. If you are having to struggle realise that it is a message. Business should not be a struggle. If you are struggling, look at your business and make some significant decisions to ch
Does your web site make search engines happy? Despite all the negative hype lately, it’s pretty easy to design a web site that search engines will accept with open arms. All it takes is 3 easy steps:
1) Follow the Search Engine Guidelines
Nearly all search engines publish their own guidelines regarding the submission of sites, the type of sites they will accept and recommendations for optimized content. Google recently updated their Webmaster Guidelines - http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html - which cover the most common forms of deceptive or manipulative search engine behavior that they consider to be “spam”. They also published SEO Guidelines http://www.google.com/webmasters/seo.html – advice for webmasters to heed when choosing an SEO. Google was the first search engine to publicly acknowledge search engine optimizers in this fashion.
It’s not just Google publishing anti-spam guidelines. You’ll find them at the following search engine sites as well:
- MSN Search webmaster guidelines http://search.msn.com/docs/siteowner.aspx?t=SEARCH_WEBMASTER_REF_GuidelinesforOptimizingSite.htm
- AltaVista terms of use (AltaVista is a Yahoo-owned company) http://www.altavista.com/about/termsofuse
- Yahoo terms of service http://docs.yahoo.com/info/terms/
- Yahoo guidelines on search engine spam (covering AltaVista and AllTheWeb as well) http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/deletions/deletions-05.html
- Yahoo definitions of search engine spam (covering AltaVista and AllTheWeb as well) http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/deletions/deletions-04.html
- Yahoo content guidelines http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/ysearch/deletions/index.html
- AskJeeves / Teoma terms of service and spam policy http://about.ask.com/en/docs/about/terms_of_service.shtml
- AskJeeves / Teoma editorial guidelines http://about.ask.com/en/docs/about/editorial_guidelines.shtml
2) Avoid Spamming the Search Engines
Often, webmasters will use search engine spam techniques without even being aware that they are doing so. Or worse, web designers can – advertently or inadvertently - integrate techniques that could cause a site to be penalized in the site’s rankings in one or more engines, without the site owner’s knowledge of such penalties. The key to avoiding spamming the engines is research.
Keep track of the various search engine guidelines via the links above. Watch for any changes they make to these guidelines and tweak your site accordingly. Trawl the various webmaster and search engine forums regularly to ensure your site doesn’t use any of the latest methods that appear to be penalized. If you suspect your site has been penalized, remove the offending content, contact the engine concerned and ask to be reinstated.
Google actually encourage you to file a re-inclusion request via their Help Center - http://www.google.com/support/bin/request.py - and this post http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/reinclusion-request-howto/ by Google staffer Matt Cutts outlines what should be included.
Alternatively, here is a sample email template you can use instead:

“I didn’t know that!”If you hear those words from an existing customer who likes and trusts you but who just bought something from one of your competitors, you have no one but yourself to blame. It was you who blew the opportunity and left the door wide open to the competition.Was your response something like, "Gee, we started offering that service six months ago?" Then why didn't you tell that to this customer? Here's why: You made the common mistake of assuming that once you have sold a client on your company, the client will stay sold unless something goes seriously wrong.“Are we a good match?” is every customer’s most important question about your company.

Web Address: How To Get Free Web Site Traffic
There are many ways to get free web site traffic to your website or business promotion. One of the best ways is the use of free traffic exchanges. These exchanges allow you to submit your website into the rotation with hundreds, or thousands of other websites for the membership of that particular traffic exchange. Some traffic exchanges are better than others, so you need to make sure the ones you choose, are best for you and your business.Needless to say, you want to pick a free traffic exchange that has lots of members so there’s much more exposure to your websites, sales pages or affiliate programs. You also want to make sure the audience would be more likely to purchase your product or service you’re trying to sell. For examplere search-engine-friendly by [your source for using spammy method].
