| SEO - There's more to it than 'set it and forget it'! |
| 2010.08.17 15:19:21 | |
Common misunderstandings about search engine optimizationIt's still surprising how many new website owners still believe that all that is needed is to register a domain name, host space, setup a site either themselves or use an outside agency, add their preferred keywords to the meta keywords tag, submit it to Google and then sit back and wait on visitors and leads to pour in. There might have been a time when that just may have worked but not today with the volume of new sites launched and literally millions of new pages, if not more, published everyday. The competition for first page ranking in Google is fierce and unrelenting. But not impossible!
