Start with the Moz beginners guide - linked earlier ... and then develop a decent content strategy within a well structured website.
Whenever you generate content, ask yourself these questions:
- would I share this? Would I link to this piece of content, would I post it on my facebook page, would I tweet about it ... if it's not useful, then you probably wouldn't. So evaluate each piece of content you write with that: W.I.S.T - Would I Share This?
- what is the purpose of this piece of content? What am I hoping to achieve with this content - who is it targeting, does it address the needs of those targeted, does it make it easy for those people to find what they're looking for?
All of that is answering the wants of your audience - and that will gain you traction in search engines,

Hi to all! Very good inputs about SEO. I think all important aspects have been covered. Well it's a part of digital marketing. After your page is shown on the first page among top lists, just follow the basics of marketing. Creating awareness, envolve, make them feel or have the experience of it so that they can talk about it. create your page on this guideline and make this site of yours favourite to client. Your aim is achieved.

If I post you some of the best methods and techniques, would you perform your own heart surgery?
Well, unless your business is a lot smaller than one human life, you really shouldn't risk all of that on a few tips either.
If you have a very small business, with very little competition, then just a little bit of SEO basics might make a difference. But all the big companies have not just a professional and experienced full-time SEO, many have agencies or teams of SEOs working on their case. Would you honestly expect to beat their work with some part-time effort based on tips worthless enough to give away for free?
Just something to consider.

That's a terrible comparison:| No ones likely to die if you do your own SEO and heart surgery is a little bit more complicated then SEO (hence the need for a Doctor with a degree for heart surgery)??
Looking at the way alot of supposed SEO agencies operate, yes, I would

Well, from the point of view of all of the employees of a company, if the boss dies in botched surgery, someone takes over and they still have a job.
If the company dies in botched marketing, all the employees are out of jobs. From their point of view you are right: there is no comparison, kill the boss.

Sorry, your analogy is incorrect, the 'heart surgery' quote is just a scaremongering thing.......
The employees are possibly out of jobs, whilst this isn't a particularly good thing no one actually dies because the company closes?
Personally, if I had £10k and needed either SEO or heart surgery, the heart surgery would win every time!

That 'having a go' at something that needs a skilled professional is a very risky thing to put a business on the line over? No, I'm really not.
Even professional SEOs, that have been in business for years, with hundreds of clients, have had to backtrack over the techniques of the past a little. Now certainly, a lot of those companies were the 'SEO on a budget' type ones that had to use a few more 'shortcuts' to get results on what time the clients were paying for.
Penalties for doing the wrong thing in SEO are very, very real. JC Penny, BMW, and Interflora have all been penalized at times, along with Which magazine online and a great many others. In each case, for doing just ONE thing wrong - or rather, for using just one technique that was wrong among all the good things they did right.
I'm all for people learning SEO. But learn on a throwaway site where making a mistake is not of great consequence. If you need SEO for your business, get the best you can afford, not the cheapest, and certainly not complete amateur DIY.
SEO may not be rocket science, but as a rocket scientist once said, neither is rocket science once you know your stuff. Its just a job. You either have the skills to do it, or you don't. While you don't, don't learn on something valuable.

So when 'SEO went bad' at JC Penny, BMW and Interflora how many people died?
Also.................
Heart surgery is a cure used to try and fix a problem or fault with the heart.
Surely a good SEO does the job right from the start, so there's no need for supposed 'heart surgery' unless the whole SEO concept is flawed?
Is that a conundrum wrapped in an enigma, or is it just load of old bo**ox?

Off-page SEO may also include work on boosting the traffic stats generally to send better usage data signals to google. Developing the Chrome browser was far more successful than the Google Toolbar ever was in getting people to instal software that lets Google know which sites they visit, engage with, browse deeply ... and which sites have high bounce rates.
Just a question for jamesfrank101 - what the heck are 'unique keywords' and why would you want keywords noone had ever used before or elsewhere (like, in a search engine)?
I keep seeing this phrase, admittedly mostly from cheap offshore SEO companies, and it always makes me wonder if its a language thing - something that didn't translate well literally.
The point, in fact the entire point, of keywords is to use ones that people will use to find a product or service like yours... or like your competition, if you want to take business from them. Unique, in this context, just makes no sense.
It just sounds like chinese whispers of the advice from years ago to "use unique Titles, descriptions, and keyword tags for each page" passed down through people until the phrase, and meaning, have been lost completely. Not to mention the fact that you are better off having no keywords meta tag at all, (except only where you use it to throw off competitors and make them chase keywords that did not convert). Search engines have ignored the keywords meta tag for more than 7 years.

You should always first add unique content to your website as content really matters in rankings. Also do proper On-Page SEO so that Google will give value to it and in the last do proper Off-Page SEO Link Building which include Forum posting, Blog commenting, Social Bookmarking and Web 2.0 properties.

We didn't mean Negative SEO, but if we had, yes, those would be some of the best ways to kill a site in search rankings.
If you ever get a proposal for SEO that mentions submissions, it is 90% certain that it is spam of the worst kind, from a company that has no clue at all about SEO. They are using techniques scraped off of a blog or forum post from 10 years ago.
Even with directory submissions, genuine, reputable SEO companies avoid the word submissions, because hitting the submit button is the one part that could be done by trained monkeys. The bit that takes an SEO is knowing which directories are more than just link farms, and knowing which category will do the most good to be listed in, and how to craft a description that a reputable directory would publish. And its considered an automatic, almost throwaway part of the work for everything but local SEO.
If you ever see a proposal for SEO that includes forum posting or article submissions, the chance of it being terrible spam that will actually harm your rankings approaches 100%. Bin it at once.
Forum signature links are one of the specifics that SEOs are linking to Penguin 2 penalties, right up there with third-party footer links. Article directories are almost all link-farms, and those that are not directly such, have so much duplicate content issues with other article sites that are, that you can be sure they are a 'bad neighbourhood'.
