Because SEO is a subject that gets talked about whenever a small band of people with web sites gets together.</p> <p>And yet they all agree <strong>content is king</strong>!</p> <h1>SEO Self-Help</h1> <p>So how can they agree on that I wonder? "Content is King" and yet we still need Search Engine Optimization, surely that's not necessary?</p> <p>Well of course SEO is necessary but it needs to be integrated with the content. So trying to "do" SEO on a web site or blog without paying attention to how you write copy is a complete waste of time.</p> <p>There is so much that you can do to help yourself with SEO:</p> <ul> <li>Write a title with the keywords in</li> <li>Keep one page pretty much dedicated to one concept or product or service</li> <li>Research and use the appropriate keywords as you write the content</li> <li>make sure you do off-site SEO</li> <li>Encourage appropriate inward bound links</li></ul> <p>Above all, write great content, publicize your site and the hits will come.</p> <p>Then Bob's your uncle and <strong>I'm the coolest guy on the planet</strong> still!<strong></strong></p> <div class="wlWriterSmartContent" id="0767317B-992E-4b12-91E0-4F059A8CECA8:784bc507-55f8-43b3-9c09-6a6ff4e99f85" contenteditable="false" style="padding-right: 0px;
