Notes de l'éditeur
- Happy place Zone out or bomb
- buzzword Effective + ROI
- IS IS NOT
- Can’t just set it and forget it
- Not all technical Technical problems and solutions exist Most tactics are content related
- No hidden secrets or black art Misinformation Knowing what/who to believe Experience, Trial and Error
- Investment in Time, Resources, People. Build into processes and business roles.
- Not stand-alone Combined with other marketing initiatives. Meant to influence SE’s but don’t lose focus on actual customers PPC, Traditional, PR, Online, etc.
- Mindset / philosophy. Should be integrated into processes (copy, design, development, PR) Somebody needs to own it
- Searchers accomplish something (goal) Keywords are “stated intent” SEO funnels that intent to your content

- Can crawlers access, read, understand site content? If they can’t see it, they can’t read it.
- Googlebot The first major obstacle to SEO
- Table of contents for your site Enables crawler discovery Doesn’t help with ranking directly
- Most themes only change CSS, which doesn’t affect accessibility Watch out for themes that are overly complex
- related to the keywords being searched
- Don’t overdo it! Write for humans, not search engines. Keyword Research Tools: Google Adwords, Keyword Discovery
- Permalinks not ideal, don’t use keywords <title> puts blog name first, need to reverse order Doesn’t allow for custom Descrip and Keywords tags on each page/post
- Help focus your content on the targeted keywordsPlugins can help Watch for shady links
- Trustworthy Authoritative Links are votes
- WP usability is good, follows conventions. Poor UX hurts chances of repeat visits, links, interaction
- Too many to mention Based on your audience & objectives FB, Twitter, Digg, Stumble, AddThis
- Would you link to your own site?
