Upon some suggestions I received from my SEO Community on Face Book, I have decided to publish a post in which I would unveil the difference between opting automatic SEO VS manual SEO strategies.

Being an SEO, I have always preferred manual SEO strategies implementation as I had a faith that doing SEO by hands and brain is much effective and efficient than installing SEO software for doing the SEO work automatically. I was WRONG actually. Doing SEO by hands does take much time to implement various combinations of strategies but by having a SEO software, which is doing all the stuff for you, is much fast runner in this case.

Well, I am not suggesting you to implement SEO software here totally, but using the combination of both of the techniques makes it semi auto SEO strategy which is more effective and quick result providing than you could have get from individual strategies. Semi Auto SEO is a blend of automatic SEO and manual SEO techniques and following accurate and white hat techniques can result in better results and ranks in the major search engines.

Applying an automatic SEO strategy will ensure speed and quick backlinks but it doesn’t guarantees organic SEO or accurate submissions. You might be confused by this statement because you may not have noticed it but this is a fact about implementing all SEO strategies on software. Furthermore, the SEO tasks that require research, creativity and social networking are much difficult to be handled by the SEO software. Here you must need a manual SEO application.

In implementing SEO techniques manually, it is effective when the SEO personnel has a creative mind and is a strategist. Manual SEO requires fine judgment regarding keyword selection, the theme decision, web content uniqueness, analyzing target audience, analyzing competitors and much more which can’t be done with SEO software at least. Writing content is also done manually, as SEO software cannot generate content.  Maintaining business terms with the clients and customers also requires human to monitor and respond accordingly.

SEO Techniques to Automate

Build a Search Engine Friendly Website

SEO personnel can easily create a strategy by using software which crawls the website and analyzes the factors that are needed to create an onsite SEO analysis report and strategy. To identify the broken links within your website software can help you a lot. Software can provide you with a report about the content quality, duplication and the keyword density being used in it which helps a lot in doing onsite SEO and making a strong web page.

Analyzing Competitors

Poking nose in the strategies of your competitors is what I also would like to do.  Evaluating the market you are entering and analyzing the existing competitors on a particular targeted keyword is a tough job for SEO but SEO software does it in seconds for you. Keeping track of the competitors rank and your website rankings in the major search engine, monitoring the traffic of visitors and their mediums is what SEO software can do it much easier and frequently.

SEO Techniques NOT to Automate

Content Generation

As we all know, the furious Google Panda 3 is hunting for duplicate contents in even different languages, so it is a must to write a unique content which of good quality and represents your website theme. Accurate keyword density and persuading content can only be written by a content writer, cannot be generated from SEO software.

Creating Quality Backlinks

Creating quality backlinks contributes like putting more coal in the steam engine to make it stronger. Same is the case with the website back link building. These back links should be organically built and should be of high page rank or quality which will pass good link juice to the website and your website will get good SERPs. Judging the quality of the backlinks and the placement where your backlink is positioned on the back link page is only judged and evaluated by a SEO personnel not SEO software. Spreading brand awareness in people which are interested in buying or to know about the product or services offered by your website is only done by SEO personnel manually by interacting and responding timely. This social interaction a Software can’t do.

So, it is wise to use software to automate some of the SEO techniques but the techniques which are of high priority and are of much dear to Google, Yahoo and Bing, those SEO techniques should be done manually which will ensure quality and success for sure.

WordPress has become a household name for seasoned as well as casual bloggers all over the world. It is synonymous to Harley Davidson in the biking industry. However, from time to time, the plug-ins keep on changing with the search algorithms revised. The idea of writing this post is to let you have a glimpse of the necessary plug-ins that you need to have a fully SEO optimized WordPress blog without having the need to depend on the so-called SEO experts. Let us have a look at them.

Google XML Sitemap

Sitemaps are files that are generated by software to arrange all the URLs on your site into a map. This is also known as site mapping. If your site does not have a proper sitemap, search engine won’t be able to find all the content on your site comfortably, which would mean that your site might not get displayed for important searches on content that your site has but it isn’t traceable by a search engine bot. This plug-in will not only generate a sitemap but also help you conveniently keep track of all things happening on your site through Google Webmaster tool.

All in one SEO

This is a very important plug-in, in which all the SEO tips and strategies related to onsite SEO, are implemented. All in one SEO is a valuable plug-in which helps you customize the look of the snippets of every blog post that you are writing, in the search engine. By controlling the visibility of your blog post, you can increase the likelihood of more people clicking on your site.

Remember that when your site gets displayed in search engine results, it is competing with many other sites. It is silently competing with other websites through the words, to get a click on it. It won’t be clicked if the snippet describing the post is not interesting enough. Without this plug-in, the post will generate its own snippet, which may not be that attractive and unable to gain more clicks.

SEO Ranker Report

This is a cool SEO plug-in that once installed will keep a track of certain keywords on your blog. This keyword tool will even notify you when certain keywords are changing their positions in search engine rankings. This can be a gold mine of information for SEOs who are looking to revise content and don’t know which content to write in order to boost their rankings. This will also reduce the workload as you won’t have to actively pursue position of all the keywords that you are targeting.

SEO Content Control

When we as bloggers are putting content on our blogs in bulk in order to gain top rankings, we often times forget that we might have put some weak content which may negatively be affecting our rankings. Install SEO content control today in the WordPress and you can have a complete Content Audit of your site done without any Content Writing Expert involved within no time. This extra tweaking of your content will obviously help you kick your site up and bring back the rankings you have been longing for.

SEO Friendly Image

Images have often been neglected in SEO since long and it’s time to get the concept in the race of the internet marketing world. We often think that the images don’t need to be SEO optimized, but with specialized searches for images only, we can no longer neglect this part of SEO. We might think that we are putting in just the right keywords for alt tags and title attributes, but what if these keywords change (which they do) the ranks of your business website in search monsters. According to various SEO tips, this plug-in will automatically detect any such changes and update the titles and alt tags of the images by itself to make the images more optimized.

Importance of SEO for WordPress

There is no doubt about the fact that WordPress is SEO optimized CMS for blogging but still, with the stringent requirements of the search engines, you need to stay ahead of the competition. With additional SEO plug-ins installed, you cannot only manage your SEO workload more efficiently but also ensure that all the blog posts that you are about to publish or have published in the past, have the maximum impact in terms of SEO and search engine visibility.

Have you ever seen comments in love and talking to each other? Freaky! but its really true now with Comment Luv Plugin in WordPress.

The concept behind this idea is that to combine the posts together wherever the Comment Luv plugin is installed and will allow commentators  to see the last posts where they left comments. Sounds cool!

This plugin allows users to see the last posts where they have been leaving comments and allowing them to jump on those posts to comment again. This plugin actually interacts blog posts with each other which looks like they are in love and suggesting each others to comment on. This feature encourages users to then leave their valuable comments to other blog posts which enhances traffic of all the blogs visitors jump on for commenting.

This plugin can be installed very easily in WordPress, Blogspot and blogger blogs. With the use of Comment Luv plugin, you will find many related blogs, tweets and diggs from other blogs and within your blog.

As an SEO professional, one of my SEO Tips is always demonstrating the significance of enhancing social interaction with the fellow commentators which you will also find in my next upcoming post about the “New SEO Responsibilities Defined for 2011″. The use of this plugin is said to have a positive effect on the website traffic which is not yet proved but according to the SEO guides available online about Comment Luv plugin do show a spark in this great plugin.

It is seen as yet, many companies having SEOs on the job of promoting their websites; look for relevant websites to get back links from. It’s a conventional way or SEO Tips of getting links and it may be due to the company requirements or due to lack of SEO guides or skills that personnel has. One must always look for cut throat SEO ideas and SEO techniques to get more qualitative links from credible websites or may be from connecting people. Amazed? Well, yes it is now seen that building public and business relations is now a part of SEO Tips of 2011 in order to get good links.

Searching for relevant websites, extracting emails that may or may not work, doing a trade linking within the 2 parties is a long tiring procedure to follow and at the end you are left with bargaining for positioning of your link on that website. Well in my SEO guide, being a professional SEO isn’t to be a beggar, asking for links or bargaining but websites and businesses should link back automatically due to your work.

Why not put yourself on a slog mode. Hit sixes as much as you can by increasing the ROI of the company and getting quality back links with fewer efforts in connecting people. Let me guide you the way to search for the people for connecting that may help you in doing SEO slog for the website:

Step1: Search People

Instead of searching for relevant websites, search for relevant journalists, blog contributors, relevant community members, social networking or people with many connections in their social networks.

Step2: Following & Contributing

Following their contributions and discussions is the key to get them engaged with you and communicate. Follow wherever they may contribute to like in blogs, forums, communities, discussion boards etc. this would make a virtual connection of that person with the SEO professional.

Step3:  Building Public Relation

If the SEO gets successful in communicating with the person and connected to him/her then it is easy to identify the needs and wants of that person. Building something eye catching and informative for that person who will build strong bond between both the parties then it means the target of an SEO is set and ready to be on slog mode.

Step3:  Deliver the Idea

Sharing that information or page created especially for them is to be delivered; so that they visit the page offered and browses it for their concerns. Everything on the information shared should have meaning and should make sense for the person.  The content being shared is to have appropriate links, keywords, and quality content.

Benefits of SEO Slog via Public Relations

• Progressive Link Building by sharing content to the connected people and requesting it to share with the social network. As many places the content will be shared, the back links will increase.
• Likes by people for the content will automatically raise ranks in search engines due to the endorsement being done by many people.
• Authentication and genuine content or information sharing is the key to success as it would gain attention by many people; brand awareness will be shared, and will be shared in the social circle.
• If the content shared is valuable for users and interesting then an SEO has just to relax and see the slogging being done i.e people would share your content automatically in social media and other network sites.
• Adding more valuable content to connected people attached links in the content will increase ranks, credibility and ROI of the main business website.

A couple of days back I received an email from Justin Koshlov from Russia asking about Local SEO, what is local SEO? I have written a post for everyone to understand the basics of Local SEO. Ok here I start!

During the last few years, we have now shifted even farther faraway from utilizing hard copies of publications and so are much more willing to look for those things we want from the World Wide Web. Long gone were the times in which we experienced to carry thick hefty textbooks and pore through alphabetical entries of organizations and businesses in yellow pages; these days, things are as obtainable as a simply click of your mouse.

Considering the variety of choices to select from and so many outcomes that will appear each time we would likely search for a specific thing on an online search engine, the idea of local search engine optimization was presented. Local internet search engine optimization or SEO is designed to get your potential customer foundation by means of through an online existence in Google Maps along with business entries. There are numerous other internet search engine sites, for example, Yahoo, Bing as well as others, and the objective of local search engine optimization is to be capable of motivating the shoppers within your neighbourhood to take advantage of your items and services.

As you began moving on local SEO, you should keep in mind the requirements initially before you decide to make an effort to perform more difficult and superior specialized work on the internet. When designing listings for your own small business on the internet, make certain that all contact detail facts are correct – current email address, location, telephone number and fax numbers are really essential.

A significant part of local search engine optimization is being in a position to select the correct local keywords and phrases that will guarantee that individuals within your town/neighbourhood have the ability to effortlessly locate you, whenever they need the services you provide. An excellent example of local keywords and phrases is “Locksmith Chicago”, or “Los Angeles locksmith”, each time focusing on local keywords and phrases it’s not at all a prerequisite that you simply point out a particular geographic location. However, this truly can help you obtain benefits, additionally, remaining as certain as you possibly can in your key phrases is effective too.

Local SEO is generally employed by small business internet marketers. They have the ability to increase website positioning to ensure that those who work in their location along with the ones in the neighbourhood towns might be able to benefit from the services and products that they offer. Online marketing has acquired much more recognition these days than it has ever been within the last several years, and taking advantage of local SEO strategies would certainly be a proven way for you to be capable of getting increased traffic directly into your site, and therefore, a lot more income towards your business.

One of the primary aspects in the targeted traffic you receive from search engines like Google is the incoming link page to your website. Whenever you come up with a considerable switch to your website, a single issue that the major search engines need to think about is whether or not those back links are still applicable.

Would the one who linked to your website continue to hyperlink to it if they looked over it all over again now? In case the reply is no, the search engine does not want to add up that back link.

Obviously, the search engine cannot figure out the solution to that query. However, they can select to slow up the powerful worth of those one way links for some time, until they decide if people begin getting rid of back links to your website when you make a big alter.

This selection procedure helps safeguard them from spammers who look forward to purchasing domain names with many different website link powers, and then modify them into completely diverse websites (e.g., purchasing a domain that was previously for an academic institution and making it an automobile insurance website). People who connected to the educational organization undoubtedly didn’t mean to recommend an automobile insurance website.

Let’s consider several cases when the search engine might think about a change big enough to re-evaluate the way they deal with your website.

Domain Name

Several website marketers decide to alter their domain. For example, possibly they began using a “.net” domain and they could find the “.com” version of the identical domain name. Or maybe they are just rebranding their own business.

No matter what the main reason, a website alternation in possibly noticed as a large modify by search engines like Google, especially if you perform a website redesign, alter the Link structure, customize the written content considerably, and alter the WhoIs at the same time.

Even though all you perform is an easy domain modify, search engines like Google have a good enough reason to think about the chance that individuals which linked to the aged domain might no longer decide to link to you. Having a basic domain modify and appropriate execution of 301 redirects, your chance of a substantial drawback is comparatively reduced. However, the threat remains.

URL Structure

It is not unusual for websites to undergo a full redesigns, or applies a brand new website cms (CMS) without creating substantial modifications to the written content simultaneously. On the other hand, it will take time for Google to recognize the new website framework to find out what exactly is on the new edition of the website.

Each of the complex associations involving the web pages of the website are already updated, and this also usually takes weeks and even a few months for the search engine to comprehend. Meanwhile, they might sense a need to decrease the value of your website relatively. Applying 301 redirects from the previous web pages to the brand new pages can help with this particular issue. However, it does not avoid it completely.

Content

Major modifications in written content may also give search engines a good reason to think about the way it treats your web site. Whether or not the basic theme matter is unaffected, normally it takes a little while for search engines like Google to make that dedication.

Who Is Changes

When you make major changes in the domain ownership, there is a possibility that you lose the back links. Most of the time the significant change in the domain records can alter the rankings. However, it is often considered as buying the PR domains for back links.

Theme

If you add new section in your website, it will take some time to take authority and recognition. You need to create good inbound links in order to gain the rankings.

Conclusion

By learning basic SEO information about website modifications and adding 301 redirects might save your rankings in search engines.

Allow me to begin by stating that I’m not the globe’s major SEO specialist. Not even close to it when I started. But since I launched my personal very first blog in 2009 I have figured out a few things regarding Search engine optimization. And also my blog has leading ten placements in a large number of keywords and phrases. That being said, the very best SEO tips I can provide you with is: Try it for yourself! 99% of the folks that label themselves as ‘SEO experts’ are usually inexperienced, liars or both. I realized that the painfully costly way after i began out after spending a lot of cash to SEO businesses. In case you are a website owner, then perform your own Search engine optimization. And if you use or handle your business’ website, create and nurture an inside SEO procedure and stay cautious whenever your webmaster asks to say yes to costs to outside SEO firms.

There are several advantages for maintaining your own SEO in-house:

• Each of the search engines like google distribute a great deal of information about how to market and SEO your site; no one offers any private data that you yourself simply cannot obtain.
• Every single industry/market needs a diverse SEO technique along with a different know-how. External Web optimization businesses might not create a serious energy to understand the details of your own field.

Here are a few issues that I have carried out that we advise:

Fresh Written Content is Always King. Everyone understands that but like a baseball trainer, you need to keep training the basic principles. Build very good written content, as much pages as possible. Observe if you’re able to create a web tool, a web-based application or perhaps a excellent program code snippet. Add a link returning to your site into the tool if it is possible.

Generate powerful internal back links. After you have some higher ranking website pages, create back links to them along with other web pages on your website.

Purchase one-way back links via top web directories and sources in your own niche. Discover the place that the top rank businesses are obtaining back links (perform a Yahoo and Google ‘link:www.example.com) to get brand new tips on where you can buy back links.

Get started with writing a blog. In case your organization doesn’t have one, start a blog. If the organization currently has a blog, then start a replacement. Utilize the blogs to distribute brand new written content regarding your organization as often as feasible.

Improve your website written content regularly. Search engines like Google like web pages that receive new and will spider your site more frequently whenever you post to your written content.

The two main things you must know around SEO right away:

• The algorithms that Google and other search engine uses will always be changing.
• You will need SEO to reach your goals on the internet.

Until you want to place all the money in that is required to create a go of it, you have to be certain you have employed the best individual to assist you out including a skilled content writer and generally the right freelance web designer as well. Those individuals will be able to assist you to come up with an excellent Search Engine Optimization strategy that is created only for your web business to suit your requirements and there are some secrets of the pros they will be able to assist you to put into action the tactics.

1. Distributing the right articles is generally a great benefit because the Google search crawlers are always crawling around syndication websites and that will help you with your web site position as well as the appropriate visitors to your website. Make no blunder, your articles have to be well written and informative; any type of certain ad duplicate for self-promotion will probably be captured quickly by the individuals which monitors the websites. It is all about getting high quality, informative and putting the best back links in the useful resource area at the bottom of the website.

2. The appropriate Keywords and phrases for Website. It is important to remember you will need keywords and phrases since they are the most important part of any search engine optimization strategy, but selecting generalized ones like ‘real estate’ and ‘internet marketing’ is not going to bring you the type of conversion rates you will want. It is important to find the right kind of individuals who understand how to research the specific keywords and keyword phrases that will do the most effective in your specialized niche. You might not get as much visits with the right keywords but you will get a greater conversion rate because the people looking for your particular products and professional services will be directed to your site.

3. Internal Links. Keep in mind that while your navigational framework should include a link having a keyword phrase, it’s also suggested that you utilize the same keyword phrases to link internally within your website. You will get a better ranking because the suitable anchor-text is being used. Many times people either overlook this task or really don’t think getting links inside your pages is advantageous.

4. Keep close track of the Analytics. Keep in mind that it is important to observe how well you are doing constantly. Make sure you find a company who knows how to use analytics to assess how well you are doing and then change at the appropriate interval.

It’s crucial to consider that Google is constantly blending up the ingredients you will need to get a good page rank so it’s always a smart idea to use an Internet website marketing company who has great content writing as a foundation of their business. It’s also crucial that you maintain a cautious eye out for those providers that commit to a website one ranking in a short period of time. An excellent Search engine optimization plan requires many weeks to exhibit outcomes.

I have helped many websites in the launch or redesigning the old website. These are from different niches, there are number of tasks that you need to do to make sure that your SEO starts off in the right direction. Most of all, these first tasks will no longer take 1 or 2 hour and is definitely worth it.

1. Setting up Webmaster Tools

Google Analytics is great, but you should verify your website with other webmaster tools as well. There are many services provided by these webmaster tools to diagnose problems in your website. Sitemaps option allows you to find error pages on your website and there are other tools link finding the incoming back links.

-Google Webmaster Tools

-Yahoo Webmaster Tools

-Bing Webmaster Tools

When your website is ready to go live, it is always useful to track your visitors. You can start successful campaigns. Google Analytics is a free useful tool that you can install on your website. You can sign-up for a free account or you can pay someone to install JavaScript code on your website. Furthermore, go the extra mile and track main activities on your websites. These will help you improve your conversion rates.

2. Fix Canonical URL Issues

This is easy to fix, but many websites ignore. If you are running a blog, All in One SEO plugin can auto fix this problem. Choose one URL either with www or without www; it solves the problem of having multiple URL for the same web page.

Moreover, make sure your main links to /index.html or any that you may have. You can add to PHP sites in htaccess file.

Options + FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine on RewriteCond% (HTTP_HOST) ^ domain.com Http://www.domain.com/ //www.domain.com/ RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $ 1 [L, R = 301] RewriteRule ^ index.html $ / [R = 301, L]

Make sure the code is correct even I have written it. It is always good to double check.

4. Adding Robots.txt File

There are other files that get indexed such as accounting files. If you want to restrict access, you need to replace “/ folder / with the folder (s) you want to restrict.

User-agent: *

Disallow: / folder /

This will help you keep everything getting indexed.

5. Submitting XML Sitemaps

You can submit your xml sitemap to search engines. There are several tools to make xml sitemap and plugins for blogs. Each search engine allows you to submit your sitemap from the webmaster tools. Many search engines will find your website through this way.

6. Setup Your Local Business Listings

In almost all the search engines there is an option of local business and in Yahoo, Google, and Bing you can submit your website to local search. There is a free tool that helps you manage your local business listings called GetListed. You can manually submit your website on each of the search engines. Simple way is to search on each search engine with “local business listing or add local listing in Google, yahoo, Bing”

After submitting to search engines local listings, submit to local directories like Yellowpages, Superpages. You can do it manually, but you can outsource the work for 30-40$.

7. Adding 301 Redirects

This is very important for your business. After redesigning, many websites change there domain name. You need to keep the old URL and 301 redirect reduces the risk of loosing search engine rankings. Adding the 301 redirect to all pages would be helpful. These SEO tips will surely help you gain from your business
