1. Give stuff away. Does your company offer free samples of its product? Do you have any handy applications or an ebook you can let site visitors download for free? There are few more effective ways to get people to link to your site than to offer something for nothing.

2. Share useful information. Links are commonly used to share information, so putting useful information on your site, such as articles or how-to guides will help draw links.

3. Connect with your community. This can be either your geographic community or a community based on your industry. Sponsoring an event at a local charity, interviewing an industry expert and posting the interview on your site or writing articles and blog entries for others to post can all bring inbound links.

4. Reach out to the blogosphere. Bloggers are always looking for new ideas, new websites to link to, and new products to write about, and they can be a great source of link love.

5. Use good old-fashioned PR. Getting mentioned in the press is good for your company in many different ways, and one of them is that online publications may include links to your site or your information if your company is mentioned in an article.

Here is the latest buzz in SEO underground: CAN WE SEO SITE TO APPEAR IN REALTIME SEARCH ENGINES ?

“Trying to get to real-time with your Google SEO efforts is an elusive goal to say the least. True, Google has advanced to the point that it can index and rank a new page in minutes, but this cannot (and should not) be relied upon, nor can the resulting rank be expected to be stable. Google often folds Google News and/or Google Blog Search results into its web search results via a “onebox”—providing yet another, “back door” way of getting into Google’s main web results fast. But for a vast number of queries, such oneboxes do not appear.”

Interesting ? ok our take on this is from Static to Social to RealTime 

Is same game : play by rules, keep it clean, if you have already good SEO site, and you are known among sites, that you provide news that matter ( because No One cares about your realtime cleaning your backyard postings ! )

You will be in the game of realtime…

Search engine optimization may become less important in the future as Internet users rely more on recommendations and social media to find information. Already, people are asking questions on Twitter and Facebook instead of Google. This means that high-quality content and usability will become ever more important, because users are more likely to recommend a website if they have found it easy to use and useful. Also, search engines themselves will be smarter, meaning they’ll be able to better discern a Web page’s usefulness to a particular user.

I ran today by this quote, it’s kinda true if you run scam business ! or you push scam sites by doing blackhat methods !
But let’s compare 2 companies offering business card , both real , both legitimate business,
How you will bring B on no.1 and A down of it ?
Some people don’t get the full case..and that quote with respect didn’t get real case of SEO !

• Some thinking have title ..voila we are done.

• Some think adding couple of lines or stuffing on each page ..voila so so seo.

Some don’t even think!

WHO ? WHAT ? HOW?

BUT ..
They’re listening to the wrong people. It’s easy to form a bad opinion of just about anything if you listen to the wrong people. Just as in social media, there are plenty of people in the SEO world who promulgate myths, misstate facts and make sweeping proclamations. These things aren’t always done intentionally but the harm is done regardless. Unfortunately, the people who are most apt to do these things are often the ones who have the time to hog the spotlight and are most visible to newbies.

They’re lazy. SEO is hard work. From learning the basics to staying abreast of the latest trends to actually applying your knowledge in practice, SEO, like most things worthwhile, requires hard work and an investment of time. Out of all the people who criticize SEO, how many do you really think have actually made a reasonable effort to see what SEO can do for them?

They’re full of nonsense. A lot of the people who criticize SEO don’t really believe what they say. Take Jason Calacanis, for instance. He’s said some pretty mean things about SEO yet his company, Mahalo, is basically an SEO play. And uses some pretty aggressive tactics at that.

If you can’t convince them, confuse them.

A search engine optimization company using “artificial SEO” will ask, “How can I get links pointing to this site without adding anything of value to it?” The latter approach usually leads to reciprocal linking schemes, link farms, the purchase of text links, and more—anything except making changes to the Web site that entice others to link to the site without the link being reciprocated, without paying the Web site owner, or without asking “pretty please.” There is a stark contrast between “Organic SEO” and “Artificial SEO.” Of course, any decent search engine optimization company will make certain that a site is listed in all the popular directories, such as the Yahoo Directory, the Open Directory Project, and Business.com. A good search engine optimization company will also continually seek any industry specific directories where your site should be listed. But truly using “organic SEO” means evolving your site into something that holds actual value to your prospects. In my opinion, this is much more beneficial in the long run than the artificial methodology of trying to garner incoming links that the site does not truly deserve.”

Here are 3 Mini SEO Tips

1. Include a keyword in that attribution link. Stop linking your company name only and at least include the “Website Designed” portion. Even better, use something like “Designed by: Company Name – A New York Web Design Company.”
2. Once you design a few sites with your keyword-rich attribution link, change the wording. It doesn’t need to be drastically different, but create some variation. Do this periodically.
3. Create a pre-sale page on their site that features a testimonial and links back to your site. Then, link to this pre-sale page site-wide from the footer of their design. This will help you avoid the negatives of the run of site links, while getting a link from a page with a lot of internal PageRank flowing to it.

nofollow is an HTML attribute value used to instruct some search engines that a hyperlink should not influence the link target’s ranking in the search engine’s index. It is intended to reduce the effectiveness of certain types of search engine spam, thereby improving the quality of search engine results and preventing spamdexing from occurring

We never used it , we will never use it. and if you can get over giving too many links ,then you are good.

You can’t just sign up for accounts on Twitter, Facebook, etc. and hope for it to pay off. You have to work hard at it and be consistent in the way you use it — you can’t just sign up and leave. Successful social media marketing involves signing up for social media accounts and actually being social — interacting with other users, regularly updating and participating.

Engage in social media, be consistent and see it literally pay off.

companies engaging in social media are more financially successful.

You’ll face the problem of not being first whenever you enter an existing niche. And on the internet, that’s “most of the time”

Look at the top sites in your chosen niche. If they got in early enough, chances are they enjoy the linking benefit that comes with being first. Typically, Google’s linking algorithm favors long established sites, as opposed to newcomers.  Those who are first to occupy a niche have a much easier job of getting links because they are remarkable, simply by virtue of being unique.

So what to do if you arrive late to a niche?

Invent a new niche, and be first in that.

Say you sell holiday rental accommodation in Palm Springs. Unfortunately, there are a lot of holiday rental accommodation services in Palm Springs. So to differentiate yourself, you might decide to focus on “the cheapest rental accommodation services in Palm Springs”. Or “the most upmarket rental accommodation services in Palm Springs”. Or “the best rental accommodation guide for solo travelers in Palm Springs”.

Focus on a new angle that your competitors aren’t targeting. This is called market segmentation.

 

• Social media is like teen sex. Everyone wants to do it. Nobody knows how. When it’s finally done there is surpirse it’s not better.
• The facilitation of word of mouth with technology.
• Trackable conversational content about brands, products or anything.
• Consumer generated content that influences perceptions.
• It’s a fancy way to describe the zillions of conversations people are having online.

 

WHY SOCIAL MEDIA ?

Because DEAR FRIEND SOCIAL MEDIA IS A F**KING FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH.

 

• SEO and Social Media are not one in the same. They absolutely do not equal each other.
• There is no secret sauce. There is no one trick. It’s a holistic process.
• Search is constant traffic. Spikes occur from Social Media. Search is where they find you, SM is where they hear about you.
• A big misconception is that you need to be ranked #1. You can still get a lot of traffic by ranking anywhere on the first page. Google is using a “freshness” rule to see who continually hits the keyword. Social Media is not a replacement for search. Search will always be #1 driver.
