The Fundamental Law Of SEO

February 19th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Blogging, SEO

Most of the people try fruitlessly getting on top of the SERPS (Search Engine Ranking Positions). More than 95% people do it wrong, and that’s the reason only a select few enjoy good traffic. Are you one of them? Could you be one of them? How do you know? Lets find out…..

The idiotic mistake that GUARANTEES your loss in the SEO Game

Technology allows me to put up one, or thousands of websites in a matter of days. As a programmer, it’s very easy to visualize such a concept. But would it work the way I want it to? You might get a few traffic, but don’t expect yourself to be the next big thing.

When creating websites, the primary priority of practically everyone is SEO. Will Google like my website? Will I get top ranking for my foolish keyword? No one ever focuses much of their attention on content!

A single satisfied visitor can in turn bring in a lot more…

This is true. How many times have you followed links to blogs/blog posts or even websites from another website/blog? Bloggers especially, recommend cool stuff to their visitors if there exists one. And there is no reason why that cool stuff can’t be created by you! I’d like to clarify what I mean by “Cool”, but that’d take up an entire blog post. Keep checkin’ back for it though, I might just post it in a few days.

Even in forums, you can see people recommending others’ stuff like crazy, if it is really good.

“Hey! Where can I find some good info on XYZ?”
XYZ_SITE.COM seems to be a good resource…”

Have you ever seen conversations like above in chat messages, forums or what not? That’s the power each individual holds, and the way to levarage it is to give the person what he wants, rather than chasing the search engines.

What Google actually wants… REVEALED!

A bold statement, eh? It’s nothing new, but most of the webmasters (should we even call them that?) don’t realize this. Google wants to give searches the best possible resource for their searches. And the more you help Google do that, the more it’ll help you.

Look at all the high ranking webpages, what do they have in common? They all give the users what they want. ONLY AFTER DOING THIS, they modify content and stuff to make it easier for search engines (say Google) to know what their site is all about. And all of this is available on Google’s own help system, why fruitlessly search everywhere else?

So the Fundamental Law is…..

….Users first, SEO second and your list goes on. I’m not telling you to neglect SEO. But the higher priority are your users. The efforts of satisfied users can bring you more traffic from SE and other sources than what you could do on your own in your entire lifetime.

I’d like to hear from you too…

I value your opinions, thus I’d appreciate you writing in the comment box below, on what you think about this article. It’d be interesting to know about your experiences in the SEO world. Have a nice day!

    THANKS! It’s so good to meet someone with the “right” attitude about SEO. (I ranted about SEO-insanity, but I had the impression I’m pretty much alone on this.)

    I remember once I came across an excellent example of a real SEO guru, who accentuated the difference between dumb SEO (that is, keyword stuffing), and the fine art of SEO (that is, smoothly integrating SEO-effective notions that do not obscure, but refine the content). I just can’t remember where it was.

    You don’t happen to have such examples?

    I’ve just glimpsed through your blog post. Finding it quite interesting. I just need a little more time for a thorough read up.

    I’ll try to get some examples if I can. Surely will help a lot of people.

    Thanks again for commenting!

    Three SEO laws,

    Quality back links
    Quality site architecture.

    Thanks,
    It reminds me to pay more attention on content quality rather than hunting for more backlink and the blog layout.
