You Don’t Need An SEO Training Class To Zoom To The Top Of Search Results Part 2

Assuming that you have never been to an SEO training class and you have just created some marvelous content on your site and you want others to see it, what would you do? You would find ways of informing others would you not?

Now there is a very important rule on the web that was there long before the Google search engine came along. It is simply this. People hate to be advertised to on the web. That is why folks get violent when they see spam. And that is why banner ads with all their colour and beauty hardly ever get clicked on.

So how do you advertise your site when people hate advertising? You do it the way it is done on the web. People are looking for information and so you simply provide them with information that is related to your web content. All you have to do is to find places where folks looking for the information you are offering usually go to look for it. That includes relevant article directories, blogs and discussion forums.

Post brief parts of your content as articles in article directories and link back to your site. Any SEO training class will tell that this is extremely valuable in terms of getting your site to rank highly in search results. This will create even more valuable back links pointing to your site because if your article is really good others will re-post it at their sites with the links pointing to your site still intact.

Leave comments in relevant forums and blogs but a word of caution. DO NOT link back to your site. Most blogs and forums will treat this as link spam and they will be pretty upset and it is actually completely unnecessary and will do you more harm than good even if it were allowed. People will view this as advertising. Remember what I said earlier about advertising?

Just give snippets of your valuable information and add value to blog posts and discussion forums. Don’t worry, people will take note and they will look for your site. They will use your name on a search engine. They may even ask you about your site. I am of course aware that some blog software allows you to list your website as you leave comments, which is okay.
