Using Wordpress? You’re 80% of the Way There
“(Wordpress) is a fantastic piece of software, it
makes your site easily crawlable by search engines,
solves some 80-90% of mechanics of SEO and is the
first big step anyone can take towards creating a
popular online business.”

XML Sitemaps – Recommend, But Not Always a Must
I wouldn’t go so far as to say I recommend against it, just that for many, relatively basic sites and blogs, you don’t
need to worry about submitting these (unless you use video, in which case there’s some cool options; we’ll chat
about that later in the deck)

A Simple Process for Choosing Good Keywords
High Volume(many searches/month)
Low Competition(weak sites/pages in the top 10)
High Value(large % of visitors convert)
Ideal Keywords!

Use Exact Match! Be Careful About Phrase + Broad
Note the much higher numbers!

Why Links Matter to Search Engines
What You Say
About Yourself.
What Others Say

![Page 38: Ebriks Seo fundamental](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020309/568c351c1a28ab023592f8cb/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Uses descriptive anchor text
Points to the right page
![Page 39: Ebriks Seo fundamental](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022020309/568c351c1a28ab023592f8cb/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
What Matters in a Link?
<p><a href=http://www.seomoz.org rel=“nofollow”>
SEOmoz’s Website </a> is a good resource for those
seeking to learn more about search engine
optimization.</p>
Anchor text
(tells the engine what
this link is about)

Surrounding Text
(may provide context on
the link’s relevance)
Rel=“Nofollow”
(a tag that indicates search
engines shouldn’t trust/count
this link)
