Yes, I agree with the Chris that Google is no longer giving any value to the results which are easy to manipulate. Instead you should focus on natural link building if you have done a good on page then in the offpage you should concentrate on the Quality of links which brings traffic to your website. Links which are make only to spoof the search result are not giving any value until a cisitor visit that link unless it will be counted as a dead link after some time.

Except it doesn't make any sense. You should properly research your keywords and build them into your content to create a holistic whole. Google is looking for relevance to searches not keywords.
So it should be:
4. Use a range of relevant Keywords to create an authoritative whole. Treat your site as single entity not a collection of pages.

I think SEO is one of the most creative branding paths which change the promotions continue to target the right people to generate unique visitors per month. The strategies here for today weren’t even around 5 years ago. So, this is the thing that I want to mention we need to always think re-optimizing existing content for better conversion.

Today I started my SEO and link building strategy on the advice of a shop building course I got some time ago that includes what works from Andrew Minalto. All white hat strategies and now there is only time to show if it works for me. Apply to Googles rules and you will win. That is the best strategy anytime.
As it is Google index is near the 1500 plus pages and I can get on with the work. That is the ranking of the pages and competition is not there in my niche.

Indeed it does and the course is done well so all I have to do is to apply it and see what happens which I am currently on a mission to do. Still everything Andrew has done is absolutely what works and if it gets out dated then he would not or update it like he has with his Ebay course.
The feed files from my supplier are as is and to rank in Google that SEO on pages needs to be done for the best result and that is part of the daily work Monday to Friday.

None of the above you mentioned are good from SEO point of view. Actually all the techniques you have mentioned are outdated and search engines are no longer giving any value to these things. If you want a proof then search any term or query on google how many results you get from the directories, Blog comments, Bookmarkings, forums. well its nothing because search spiders are not considering their links authentic so they don't give them any value. the other things which you need to focus is the content, on-Page, Website health, traffic, Mobile usability, UI/UX, and a good source of back links.

This.
Some of the previous posts saying link building is outdated need to get their heads checked. If done well, if done legitimately, it works wonders.
Trouble is 'link building' is still viewed as a grubby practice with little credibility, largely because the SEO industry doesn't understand PR and now, digital PR.

I presumed this had come 'back in' as everyone is talking about this or asking me about it recently. I couldn't find anything to back it up but was surprised that 'back links' were a hot topic again.

Put it this way
Google know your search history, the time you spend on sites, the time of day you are most active, the sites you regulery visit, it knows in many cases what you have brought in fact it has a massive amount of data on you that it has gained itself and knows its 100% accurate
If you use analytics as a business owner you are also aware of the incredible amount of data it has on your site again 100% reliable
It also knows how often someone uses your links either way , from or to your site , how long they stayed on either end and how often it was used. If for instance you had a Grand Prix web site selling racing suits and had a link to auto sport GP news then I imagine the link would work fine with lots of interest and google would rank it
On the other hand the more general link building will never get any real use and automatically become very poor data as trying to cheat the system
My point is why would a company with so much data that it owns and knows is 100% good data bother rating a link that has no real use over any time-frame and is known to be so easily manipulated
A link maybe to the times or BBC would work short term if related to a current news item like Trumps visit, but soon be worthless once the traffic stopped on that story, and its hard to think of many things that would run for a long term

I found this very useful and will be checking a lot of the information mentioned here. SEO was put on the back burner. Time to look into this more now.
Does anyone have any recommendations for SEO tools to use like to find the best keywords a site ranks for and which keywords should be targeted?

SEO has changed a lot. Techniques which were working before are not working now. One technique which I would like to suggest because I'm following it from last 1 year and that is publish content regularly. I've started with some posts (use interlinking of posts strategically) then some guest posts. It worked for me.

Social bookmarking sites: These are the best platforms to promote your stuff. When you post on popular social bookmarking sites, it helps in gaining more traffic to your blog.
Submit to forums: Make sure that you participate in each forum related to your niche and build connections with community. Make the best use of do-follow forums.
Blog directory submission: It helps to build quality backlinks. It takes time to get better results but it definitely helps in long run. Select a proper category under each directory and start submitting your posts.
Article submission sites: It is always good to submit the articles to high page rank directories. If you submit low quality content and has more keyword stuffing, then your article gets rejected. So, create highly unique content.

I've been following Neil Patel and Brian Dean lately too. I've been a bit behind with SEO. Lots of information from Neil Patel and Brian Dean on their websites and LinkedIn.
Enjoy.

I want to say that SEO works on trial and error method so try the activities which are good according to Google guidelines. Content marketing plays an important role now the days so you can try it. One thing that I have feel is don't be anonymous anywhere like in blog commenting, guest posting etc. Be real and it will help you.

My working strategy which is proven to work and I now follow is now a few weeks into it. The SEO on pages are going on every day to it's done which will be about 1-2 months.
Part of the strategy are:
Blog links
Forum links
Sharing on social media:
Google +
Facebook
Twitter
Pinterest
Which are every day Monday to Friday. The links are starting to be found by Google and it's now time to set the keywords to rank for and let Google get to work. Most of the chosen keywords for each page are relatively easy accordently to my seo software tool.
I will return to this post with updates in a few weeks when it ranks.

These are almost always no-follow so unlikely to help your ranking. Unless you mean guest blogging in which case Google warns against doing this to boost your ranking.
Same here.
Proven how?

As per my point of view, "Guest posting" is going to be the most effective technique in the year 2018. Guest posting will not only get your the traffic but you will also get better search engine rankings from GP. With the help of Guest posting, you will get to build the natural backlinks for your website.

Proven by the author and creator of the course I follow! Andrew Minalto UK! You can Google him for credibility if you want.
He calls it simple links which Google likes a divercity of and besides that regular places like:
https://localfame.com/top-strongest-free-uk-business-listings-sites/
Last content creation and distribution every 1-2 weeks.
Totally white hat working strategy! He knows as he found out and teaches it.
So shoot it down and reject it! I don't care.
The only thing to go wrong here is if I apply it wrong or badly which my then results will suffer from. I did rewatch the linking training video and patience is the key. Google takes 1-2 months to index basic sites/pages he says and my pages are but no SEO on page was done at the time.
Still I do get quite a few first page results already but do not know the search phrases for it.
Lastly Andrew is totally into Amazon by now and his ecommerce course is not available unless you bought it while you could.

I think you will find the links from those sort of sites have almost zero value. General directories stopped being a strong ranking signal a long time ago.
Really? It normally takes a few days for Google to index the sites I look after.
But if it works for you then that's great.

Anderz - Your link to "localframe" is from a page dated 2016. Most are completely worthless and a complete waste of time.
There is no debate at all, SEO is made up of many parts. Backlinking is one of the parts but not a priority or preference. I have seen website rank at the top with 2 backlinks others with 15,000. Just all part of the SEO pie.
