The aim of the post was to give writers with very little (if any) understanding of SEO an insight into the murky world of search engines. I could have written content is king, content is king, but we all know that already (don’t we). What I wanted this blog post to do was be an introduction to basics of improving a blog visibility to google. It is written very much with my readers in mind and I apologise to anyone expecting a more detailed post about SEO on a writing blog.

blog scraping – Yes, certainly. I am no SEO expert but what I am able to do is collect together the best of the information from elsewhere and give it to my readers in a way that makes sense to them. If they then want to go the do the further research, then great.
emphasis on keywords – I actually say that none of this matters if you are not getting links from other high profile sites. However, most casual bloggers have zero knowledge of using keywords, this is just an eye opener.
only refers to google – Does any other search engine really matter? I could have talked about Bing and their approach to ranking but why bother when Google is the King of the Hill.
Overall, I am sorry that you were left disappointed. If you need more detailed advice about SEO, such as development of real time ranking and the role of web page loading times on google’s logarithms just drop me a line.

This article is poor, it is just above blog scraping. I could take anyone of those headings above, google it, and find the same drivel repeated on other blogs. I might also add the above is wrong to put so much emphasis on keywords, rather than content and links. Putting the stress on keywords, does nothing more than to clog the internet with useless offal.

I also find it amusing that in the opening paragraph, mentions search engines, but then only refers to google. I also find it ironic, that an article aimed at writers, is not more content or readership orientated, but instead focus on keywords.

All in all I find it a poor post. I am a real person, I am not a bot, nor a hit counter statistic. I hope the owners of this site, read my comment, because it has left me wondering what the quality of their service is like – which is why I am disappointed.

This is bad advice, which serves no purpose than just to plug up the internet with crap. Would of expected more from you guys
