How to do an SEO site review - step by step

Well today the tool has been update and gives much more exact visitor numbers from June 2008 onwards.

Keyword research just got much, much, much more simple!

Until recently I only watched them embedded into people’s pages. Yesterday I thought “hmm, there must be more of these on YouTube” as YouTube is where all the SEO’s host their embedded videos.

When you view the videos on YouTube you obviously see the number of watches these videos have had, I was expecting tens of thousands of people to have watched these videos, but I got rather a shock, some of these videos have had incredibly few views, some less than 100!

What’s going on?! These videos are in the main excellent, and they quite often contain better snippets of info than textual articles. People are really missing out a great deal by not watching these videos. Get out there and discover them!

Here’s some to get you started:

However we all know that SEO done badly can cost you dear, either you will get a poor service that does very little and achieves nothing, or an SEO company who use black hat tactics that can lead to your website being banned, or worse, they are both!

Google have now posted advice for anyone looking to hire in SEO services, it tells you what to look for in a good SEO company and how to identify a poor SEO company. Read the full article here.
