Key Words? Is it as Simple as That?

Posted by Not John Chow | July 9, 2010 .

Search Engine Optimization (SEO).  I know that some SEO friendly blogs have good permalink names and some other clear ways to allow search engines to find your content, but how exactly do these engines work?  Do they blindly search for key words and phrases?  If that is so, couldn’t every web page have a random phrase generator to create fresh words to grade SEO traffic?  Who out there knows the answer to that question?

For example, if I list out a bunch of random words that could appear in my posts, will that work?  I am listing some words here that you can search for to see if my blog shows up in the search engines.  I will throw in a few odd ball words to see if that helps.  So here we go:

Now, pick five words at random and see what comes up.

 I don’t know, this seems silly to me.  Someone please clue me in.  What are the ten most useful things that I can do to improve SEO?

    Your site has a lot of useful advice. thanks for the tips!

    Question: How do I change the order of loading a sidebar versus loading the main content?

    One more thing. Your left sidebar is loading before your content. You want your content to load first.

    Hi, John. Thanks for visiting my blog. On my website, I have a step by step guide if you want to learn about SEO.

    My suggestion? Write good content using natural English phrasing, avoid keyword stuffing, get some inbound links and add some metatags (at least description and keywords). I also suggest getting rid of Google.
