		<description>Thanks for this article Tim! There&#039;s SO much to get my head around with the SEO stuff - one thing at a time...
I just recently emailed everyone I know with a website to ask for reciprocal links and if my (somewhat hazy) understanding is correct, I&#039;d be better off only exchanging links with sites that are directly related. Thanks for clarifying this for me.
I certainly don&#039;t want to look like a &quot;fuckstick&quot; either (thanks for the laugh!) so will take your advice on that one!
Here&#039;s to much success and abundance coming your way! :)</description>

		<description>Thank you so much for this comprehensive explanation.

As a writer and a photographer, I&#039;m mostly interested in displaying my content, learning from others and chat over various subjects. I didn&#039;t start a blog to make money and it took me a while to realize I still had to follow some SEO basics in order to... survive online!

I feel that I still have to improve a lot, especially to get links back. But I&#039;m gonna follow some of your advices and we will see!</description>

		<description>Great info for a newbie like me. You said, &quot;pick the keywords you want to show up for in searches and use them in between anchor tags.&quot; Do you mean &quot;in&quot; the actual anchor tag or between anchor tags - like somewhere else on the page in between two tags?

Thanks!</description>

		<description>Thank you so much for your article.
I really appreciated to read this. Hard to find someone talented here in Germany to talk with about SEO. You inspired me to run a lot more test on the things you mentioned, since I absolutely agree with your opinion and experience.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the info. We provide a really inexpensive service for contractors and it&#039;s free for consumers. Your tips are greatly appreciated since we do not collect very much money and can&#039;t afford to pay $5,000 per day to each search engine just so we can get clicked on.</description>

		<description>About the title tags...do h1 title tags have much more impact over h2? Or is it as long as the title tags are big that they will get more notice?</description>

		<description>@Steve Hall and @aetoric Design

I absolutely agree. One of the terms I targeted for my site with local search was t-shirts Chicago. Low and behold I now show up on the google maps for my business in the local search results above even Threadless&#039; online store.

It&#039;s a great thing to be able to show clients.</description>

		<description>I think the comment by Aetoric Design about Google Local search results is very relevant. One of the first things I do when I do SEO for a client is find how how big the market is that they service. If they only service a local market then there is not much point in SEOing their site for the whole world.

Much better to optimise there site for their local area. eg. optimise for search term like &#039;real estate san diego&#039;, rather than just &#039;real estate&#039;. or for term like &#039;dentist tampa&#039; rather than just &#039;dentist&#039;.

I have simplified my answer a bit for the sake of brevity, but I think this is a major point for alot of businesses. Not much point in having their business come up in search results if they cannot service the market.</description>

		<description>None of these SEO blogs ever seem to talk about Google Local Business. I feel like getting on there and asking clients for reviews on it is also great practice. Now I guess this doesn&#039;t work for sites not offering services (I relate everything to designing as a designer), but for, say, artist&#039;s blogs, this is a very relevant thing to do.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s one of the best outlines of &quot;organic&quot; Google development that I&#039;ve seen. I agree, that for all the optimization services and consultation you could buy, the best and most secure long term development is great, well put together content.

Invaluable list of sites to submit to, lots that I hadn&#039;t thought of or didn&#039;t think you could submit to. What&#039;s your submission strategy? I hear a lot of horror stories about people who oversubmit their own content, particularly to the likes of StumbleUpon, and the subsequent penalties to their &quot;reputation&quot; under the service&#039;s algorithm. Do you have a selective approach?</description>
