Google’s goal was to provide the best results possible in their search engine, so they used On Page Factors (title tags, meta descriptions, meta keywords, headings, and content) and Off Page Factors (backlinks) to qualify a page’s relevancy and quality for the given search term. Since then, their [...]

There’s a lot of factors you need to take into account, but there’s a great free tool that makes this easy. A little bit of time and effort, and [...]

Now that some time has passed since April 24th, the roll out date of the Newest Google Penguin Update, it’s a lot easier to see patterns forming for the sites that were impacted by the changes. Again, my clients were lucky enough to dodge this bullet, as once again I’m seeing tons of other SEO’s complaining about how their clients’ rankings took a plunge. It just shows how valuable [...]
