Submitted by selva on Tuesday, 15 December 2009No Comment

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving quantity or quality of traffic to a web site from search engines through “natural” or un-paid search results. These days any Online Marketing Services depend on a lot of SEO activities to improve their business. AJS promotional media provides one of the best services regarding all SEO activities, including Link Building Services.

But when it comes to SEO there are a lot of mistakes that one can commit. Following are a few common SEO mistakes.

Duplicate Content Pages

There are many ways to to do a duplicate content, such as creating print pages or referring to pages on the site with more than one URL (example: www.yes.com and www.yes.com/index.html)

Not Starting Early Enough

Even organizations that are now aware of SEO’s importance have the tendency to start the process too late. They all do not realise that SEO also plays a critical role in technical implementation decisions.

Poor Use of Internal Anchor Text

There are a lot of these days who sites still use “click here” or “more” as the anchor text on many links. This is a loss of a good opportunity to help search engines understand what the page being linked to is about.

Ignoring the Title tag

Leaving the <title> tag empty is also a very common SEO mistake. Title tag is one of the most important places to have a keyword, as this not only helps you in optimization but the text in your <title> tag shows in the search results as your page title.

Not using accurate image descriptions – If you do not use accurate image description i  your website, then the chances of creating more traffic will be less

Ignoring URLs

There are a lot of people who underestimate how important a good URL is. It is possible to rank high even without keywords in the URL, but having the keywords in the URL gives you additional advantage over your competitors. Keywords in URLs are more important for most of the websites, but even with Google their relative weight is high, so there is no excuse for having key wordless URLs.

Duplicate content

You content should be unique, this is very vital in the SEP process. These days often many websites gets duplicate content from other websites. This may end up in failure of search engines ranking. A unique and a good website always give a good impression.

Traffic in SEO

Increasing the traffic should be the main goal of any SEO. It is not a right idea to look past visitors as numbers on an analytics dashboard.

High keyword densities – Including your targeted keyword are very important, but keep in mind that inserting keyword in every word and page will not make your page more relevant.

The best to avoid the mistakes in SEO is through educating yourself to the maximum. You can also take help from professional people like Ohio SEO Services, who gives you good advice in these areas
