What is search engine optimization was the topic for today. Covered the goals and plan for the small business website, keyword research, SEO copywriting, importance of title tags, H1 and H2 tags and image alternate text. Using the google keyword tool in finding what the popular searches for Bellingham, Wa are and how to find what keywords to use on the website. Link building is important in SEO and how to get started with this by blog and forum commenting. Looked at the search engine results pages for flowers bellingham wa and which local biz sites were doing well and ways to improve those who weren't yet showing on the first page of google for these keywords in a Bellingham search.
Also recommended using pingomatic.com after updating your websites title and H1 tags so the crawlers will index these changes quicker. Please comment on and rate this show, thanks for listening.
