I guess this is just something we'll both be doing differently. When your site passes mine as far as the rankings go, maybe your way will work better. Or maybe we just go after what we go after, eh? :-) One of the best things about SEO is that it’s such an open field that we can all be right and wrong at the same time.

Yes, it gives you another page on your wordpress site with a list of pages. Great for getting more internal links. However, doesn't reinforce anything. It's not going to help any of your posts rank better in the search engines. I can think of better things to do for on-site and 0ff-site SEO. .-= Deneil Merritt´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DeneilMerritt/~3/HixtMgFlmc4/">2010 Professional And Personal Goals</a> =-. lol it is far from the “ultimate” in SEO.

Tags already have lots of articles listed under them, so, for instance, if I have a tag that says SEO and I happen to write SEO in my list and link to it, that reinforces the term for the search engines because SEO is in my link and in my address bar.

But I get it now; tags reinforce your topics, the things you talk about on your blog, and it groups everything in one place. It's not the point of whether people click on them; it's the point of reinforcing what you're writing about. Actually, initially I didn’t see the point of tags also.

I wouldn't put it in the title but I would put it in the article. Most people google a product right before buying. I much rather draw someone. Explain that the product is great, not a scam, and get the sale than let someone else get the sale. Well you do get it but with a limited view on it. besides commenting on other blogs, and guest posting. You could do article marketing which is the same as guest posting but you submit the article to sites like ezinearticles. There's forum posting with your link in your signature. There's tons of dofollow bookmarking sites. I am all for internal linking posts. I just don't see the need to use tags. No one ever clicks on them when you use a tag cloud and using a tag cloud adds so many links to your site which doesn't look good. .-= Deneil Merritt´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DeneilMerritt/~3/HixtMgFlmc4/">2010 Professional And Personal Goals</a> =-. lol its great business sense.

Yeah, I know, it draws people, but I'm going to be honest and forthright, period. It might not be good business sense, but it's ethical. This thing about backlinks; I'll own up that I've never quite understood the concept. I think I need someone to write a guest post on exactly what it is and exactly what it means. I hear people saying to do it all the time, but other than writing people and asking them to link to me, which I'm loathe to do, what other way is there other than commenting on other blogs and writing articles with links back to your site? As for tagging, that's actually as important as the rest of what people do. Internal linking is something people forget about all the time, and if you do your internal linking for certain keywords, or topics so to speak, you enhance your site as well.

Build backlinks for posts. Completely take over the first position on google and other search engines. Forget the tag words. Review should be in the title and in the content. Also, kill any noise about it being a scam in your content. You would be shocked at how much traffic you would get from keywords like "product name scam" Now that makes a lot more senses. As I was saying before. Focus on traffic. Well targeted traffic not just any traffic. Your income will grow for sure. .-= Deneil Merritt´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DeneilMerritt/~3/HixtMgFlmc4/">2010 Professional And Personal Goals</a> =-.

I do probably need to start making sure I have as one of my tags the word "review", however, which I've rarely done. The way I figure it, if the traffic numbers increase, the Alexa rank will increase as well, and thus I'll have achieved that goal without looking to do too many other things. It's just something I want for myself; sometimes, that's got to be a good enough reason.
