Does SEO take a lot of time to do on your own to have a successful business website?
I work at very small company (2 employees) and we are thinking of building and optimizing a website to sell our fitness equipment products. We don’t want to pay anyone or hire on anyone to do this, but want to handle the set-up and SEO ourselves. We no little about this but are quick learners. We are thinking this will be easy and only take a couple hours a day. Is this insane?
SEO is actually a very simple concept, despite the fact that so many try and complicate it, and try to sell their over-priced services which are rarely, if ever, effective. i.e. NO one can guarantee you a top 10 position on Google, despite so many claims to that effect. All you really need is a good meta-tag section. It will look something like this:
<head>
<title>A short title of your website goes here</title>
<meta name="Description" content="Here you describe your website in 15 words or less">
<meta name="Keywords" content="Here you place keywords relevant to your site’s products and services. Again, you should keep it to 15 words or less">
<meta name="Author" content="Your name perhaps">
<meta name="Copyright" content="Your company name">
<meta name="Generator" content="The software you used to create the webpage (usually the software will insert this section automatically">
<meta name="ProgId" content="The software you used to create the webpage (again usually the software will insert this section automatically">
<meta name="Distribution" content="Global">
<meta name="Rating" content="General">
<meta name="Robots" content="All">
<meta name="Revisit" content="15 days">
</head>
That’s it. Submit it to the search engines.
If you Google "meta tags", you will likely find many variations of the above, as well as perhaps a better explanation of each "tag" than I have provided. But this should at least get you started.
Good luck!

Any great freelance SEO specialists out there?
I have an e-commerce site which has flopped like a dead goldfish. It has great products, a great look, the organization of the items I’m selling could use work, but I really feel that there just isn’t enough traffic coming its way. The company that runs the site sucks as far as promotion (found that out the hard way…whole other story…) Anyway, I met a person on here that was a freelancer who used to work for a SEO company but I lost his email addy. (DOH!)
I think everyone who enlists services of any kind want the best bang for the buck. I only have a small budget I just would like to have tons of targeted Traffic to my site. Don’t need to be number one on Google if there are other ways to get traffic. Anyway I think I got my ideas lined out. Sorry for such a long post but I really want my site to take off. (Here is the url in case you wanna look http://nathensdobashop.com )
the best way for SEo is to employ a freelancer via sites like: getacoder, getafreelancer…. (try google search for "freelance sites") you’ll find good freelancers there with user feedback.
What will changing our URL do to our SEO score?
We are changing our domain name to be more friendly with the products we sell. Will this damage our SEO or Google indexing/ranking? If so, what can we do to fix it?
I agree that you should be fine in the long run. You may see a slight dip in the beginning, but this should balance out and rankings will return. Make sure you apply the 301 re-direct from old site to new. That is the most crucial step. Without that, you really will be starting from scratch.
You can find Google’s webmaster guidelines on 301’s here: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=93633
good luck with the new site. I hope it goes well.

(SEO) Can I just copy pictures from amazon.com and use them on my website?
Hello, I have a website and write about products from amazon. Can I just use their pictures and upload them to my web space as long as I mention "source: amazon.com"?
Is there any copyright issue? If so, would it be enough to link the pics to amazon’s affiliate program? Can I use them then?
And how about, if I partake in the affiliate program and link the pics?
It’s called copyright infringement.
You are not supposed to copy other sites not matter if that’s Amazon or some random site.
If you have joined Amazon’s affiliate program then you read their affiliate policies they have clearly mentioned what to use what not to use.
hope this helps

Duplicate Content Affiliate Sites And Affects On SEO?
Hi,
Can someone tell me if an affiliate which has several domains but the same content, will affect any SEO rankings? I have found some products for example Wooden Garden Furniture on affiliate sites, and some of the domain names are not keywords I would search for my product on, i would expect to find other stuff such as quilts and labels. I’m pretty new to this affiliate stuff, and currently using an agency but I don’t know if this is standard practice. Any practical advice would be much appreciated
Sure, substantially duplicate content may affect some websites’ ability to rank highly for certain keywords. Speaking only in terms of Google, and speaking hypothetically, here’s an example.
Let’s say that you are promoting an affiliate product, and you have a standard description that is supplied by the vendor / affiliate network. You may use this description (which usually ends up being the web page’s content or text), but there’ll likely be hundreds or thousands of other people using the exact same content as you are. While the duplicate content does work against you in a way because it’s not unique, that’s hardly the only ‘problem’ you’ll encounter if you’re trying to obtain favorable search engine rankings for your affiliate page.
Google uses hundreds of ’signals’ (ranking factors) to determine the ranking of a web page for a specific keyword query. If the affiliate product description is a good match for a specific query, Google will show the affiliate page of the website they determine to be the most relevant for the query based on all of their ranking factors at the top of their results. In other words, Google doesn’t rely on a page’s content alone (affiliate product description) to determine where a web-page ranks.
While adding unique content to your affiliate product description may help, the bigger picture is that if you have an established (older), trusted (has Google Page Rank) domain, you have a better chance of receiving higher placement for queries that match the affiliate product description. On the flip side, if you have a brand-new website that has no trust with Google (Page Rank), you’re not going to get very far using only significantly duplicate content.
Bottom line: if you have a brand-new website, and especially if you’re using a cookie-cutter affiliate website that is replicated all over the internet, or just basing your website on affiliate product descriptions, you’re facing an almost insurmountable challenge to get good search engine rankings and ultimately traffic. The best way to make money and get traffic and better rankings, as I’ve found anyway, is to limit the use of ready-made websites and generic product descriptions and instead add affiliate links into unique, but relevant content on your own website. Personally, I use Wordpress blogs for my niche marketing websites, and they work wonderfully. I have duplicate content for some Amazon products, but I add a lot of unique content that allows me to grab search engine traffic and then I can direct interested visitors to my affiliate link.
If you have a high page-rank website that is well trusted and loved by Google, you probably can get away with slapping up a bunch of duplicate content and maybe do ok (however, Google recently changed how they rank pages for long-tail keywords… so who knows at this point — search for ‘Google may day update’ for more info on that), but you’re not likely in that scenario. If you want the best chance at success, though, you’re going to need unique content on your site, and a lot of it.
– Disclaimer –
Some of what I said above is over-simplified and may not be well explained. It should, however, give you some insight into how duplicate content can affect you, and the all-around problems arising out of relying only on duplicate content to compete in search engines.

Optimize your website for desired keywords (title, meta description, text).
