RE: SEO Tools
Hi Randy, www.webceo.com There is a free version - if you are serious about SEO it's worth paying out for the fully featured versions, but even the free version will set you in the right direction. http://www.goodkeywords.com/ A freebie, this is good for keyword research. Also has some page analysis tools which are useful. I tried IBP, wasn't impressed, and I've tried pretty much everything out there, most of which is crap. www.seoelite.com SEO Elite is worth a look, but the interface is horrible. Personally I wouldn't bother with link build campaigns as the SE's are dropping the relevance of it, due to the cheating that's been going on - and the emergence of crappy link farm sites purely to drive adsense. Hope this helps, Jenny >>-Original Message- >>From: Adkins, Randy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Sent: 01 March 2006 21:25 >>To: CF-Talk >>Subject: SEO Tools >> >> >>What are the most common used search engine optimization tools used >>and recommendations? >> >>TIA! >> >> >> ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:233919 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
Re: SEO Tools
If you take your listing page and make links to an additional detail page with only one description at a time, you could target a single set of keywords and make each paragraph more relevant to a specific phrase within the content. Right now you've got it linking to a PDF, which also helps, but you could take it one step further for each listing and send the user to another detail page with a more expanded view of each property. Then your detail pages would rank individually as well as your home page and listing page making the site bigger.. ~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:233909 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
RE: SEO Tools
If you sell products, its a marketplace that can be used to search for them. Yahoo Shopping has been around for a long time and is very similar to Froogle. You can upload a product database and populate your Yahoo Shopping account with all of your online products for customers to shop for, compare, etc. http://shopping.yahoo.com ~Ché -Original Message- From: Russ [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 10:14 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: SEO Tools What is yahoo shopping? > -Original Message- > From: Che Vilnonis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 10:11 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: SEO Tools > > Russ, I agree. adwords is the way to go.

The other thing I've noticed in the past is the length of the domain renewal has a direct effect if you purchase the domain for say ten years instead of renewing it every year, it will make a difference by about 4 or 5 places in the listings (that might have changed though, but it did make a difference in my experience). Also if you have multiple relevant sub-sites of your own that point back to the main governing site, it will build link weight and more relevancy. Placed inside the content of one of the subsites you could add keywords/phrases that are linked to other pages in the main site describing more information about a subject while packing in that keyword a few times. The other thing is to make the title of the page have the keyword and name of the file contain the keyword. Relevant content is the key, not flashy intros and sites packed with images.

You might also want to make the additional sub-sites hosted in separate parts of the country, or hosted with two different providers, this way you'll have two different site from two sides of the country talking about the same relevant site and linked together by matching keywords and headers.

There is no need to fool the search engines if you building a huge infrastructure of sites, but it can cost a lot more $$ and take longer to build.
