How could I determine a high quality backlink? Answer: Your manually added text ad on any home page or high Google PR inside page is powerful. PageRank is the best page quality measurement I know of.
---
Not Sold on The Power of Backlinks? Do this: care about the reasons for your webpage's high rank. Record your SEO work in a log and review this to guess what causes a higher rank. Beginning SEOs will find that an increase in incoming links is the main cause.
---
Crosslinking from your own sites is a technique for high ranking, but do webpages get penalized when crosslinking? Do SEs penalize crosslinking to keep the results more based on true popularity? I do not know these answers, but I now use different server sites. I also changed my browser home page to a site not mine. I will only access my sites for SEO. Knowing of any possible SE penalty is of small importance. Just keep your schedule open for constant new backlinks. Don't maintain over 40 Home Page sites per webmaster. Continuous updates and acquiring high quality backlinks are the greatest reasons for top rankings. After pointing your sites to your other sites, get 5 to 17 non-maintained quality backlinks per week per site. See Checklist #3 for the how to and The Work for a Prioritized Schedule. Use step #4 to the right as the primary way to the top of engines. Also, ask yourself if crosslinking should be considered unfair popularity and minimize the reasons an SE could penalize your webpages.

Organic SEO Discovery Updates

High Rank Tip: The literature in this website really works for high organic keyword rank. The only issue is how much Effort a webmaster gives to implement my ideas! Do this: Read and implement everything on my SEO Checklist and Work Priorities pages and, when you see results, send me what it's worth through PayPal. My PayPal Email ID: scoplen3@comcast.net - after you send me a donation, email me your url and I will add it to 2 of the highest quality pages I have available for 1 year. - Scott Coplen

Popularity Tip: Do you deserve to have a popular site? If yes, what you need to do right now is create a useful resource or service to attract visitors. If you alread have one, this is the part of your website that should be your focus to build backlinks. [see ThySEO Checklist #3] Maximize the useful source's popularity and you'll start seeing free quality backlinks to your site.

Tip on Maintaining Valid Backlink Titles: Every veteran SEO knows that webpages get listed at the top of engines because the keyword being searched is being used as a webpage's backlink title. [see ThySEO Checklist #2] Sometimes a low to average volume keyword phrase found with a keyword suggestion tool does not give the same amount of hits as you hope. Proof of this can be found using the free tracking system Google Analytics. The analytic stat of importance in recognizing all valid keywords driving in visitors is found under "Traffic Sources > Keywords." This stat will show you that even though you have a top rank at one engine, with what you thought was a good phrase, it is not good at that engine. The reason for this could be that the webmaster suggestion tool is incorrect or that engines in fact promote different "Related Searches" found on the SERPs. The different promotion makes a keyword phrase more searched for at an engine over another.

4 Do-It-Yourself SEO Steps:

1. If your site is listed at Google, Yahoo and msn, skip to Step 4. Your site's listing at Ask.com, the fourth most popular engine, does not need to be monitored. For help, do a search for your url. For Google use Site Status. For Yahoo and msn use the Internet Explorer 7 Browser's top right search box to toggle between searches. Search using the part of your url after the "http://" and before the "/" at the end, for efficient results.

2. If not listed, work on the SEO that you think could make your site more engine friendly, and resubmit your site. Does your site have what it takes to take be included in the Search Engine index? For help, see Google Webmaster Central, Yahoo! Webpublishers and the next step.

3. Educated Tips (based on 5 years experience in organic SEO) on reasons your site is NOT listed at one of the top three SEs (in order of importance):

A. Lack of new High Quality Relevant Subject BLs (backlinks) pointing to your inside pages. Solution: search for the BLs of popular relevant sites by searching for "link:" at Yahoo because it shows the most backlinks. Click Inlinks on the left top at Site Explorer. Then click Show Inlinks Except from this domain because some good sites fill these results with backlinks from their own site. Get your text ad on the pages of these results at a rate of 5 to 17 per week for every site maintained. [see ThySEO Checklist #3] The highest quality relevant webpages for all searches are found at the top of SE results. My experience as an SEO beginner has been that obtaining good msn search results is easy, Yahoo takes 6 to 18 months and Google takes 18 to 24 months. As an SEO expert (one who has many high quality sites) - well, that's a more exciting story because of the crosslink.

B. No Updates. Solution: update your home page at least every 17 days. Go for a big change in content when possible. [see ThySEO Checklist #5]

C. No or Poor Title and Description Meta Tags. Solution: Set between <head> </head> tags and make sure they reflect your page content.

D. Lack of Good Content, Especially on Pages Accessed from Home Page. [see Thy Checklist #6] Bad content is similar content to another webpage. Good content is two or more paragraphs stating new ideas. Great content is having very few outbound links. SEO Tips: create new and relevant content that gives users a reason to visit your site first. If you are using affiliate links, see if the affiliate program has different campaign codes for multiple sites. Affiliates must also make sure that a site adds value to the web.

E. Bad Outbound Links. Specialist Solution: Do a manual check for low content and broken outbound links and remove them. Some broken link software may not pick up site-not-found pages. Also, add relevant high quality webpages to your site - these can be found at the top of search engines. It may not be possible to get a link exchange agreement from the best URLs, but keeping them listed will add value and could raise your Google PR.

4. Once listed at Google, Yahoo and msn, your SE Optimization priority is acquiring relevant high quality BLs (backlinks) [see ThySEO Checklist #3] and content updating! Use 3A Solution above for BLs. Also, note that the best way to get free backlinks is by offering a useful service or resource. See Thy SEO Work Priorities!

The motivation behind updating your content is that the SE crawlers use a site's change of content (your updates) as a criteria for their results (algorithms). Proof of this can be found at Yahoo in the Options > Advanced Search menu. Updating once every 17 days will work for the top engines for this is what I have come up with in my SEO testing. An update in my opinion is one changed word on a page, but engines seem to like a big change in content. When possible go for the big change.

Keywords! The links pointing to your URL must have the exact keyword phrases you'd like top engine ranking with. You must select 10 to 25 keyword phrases for variety and lateral support if-you-will. Also, your page must contain these keywords. Do not go over 71 of the same keyword and do not go over 5 of the same keyword phrase on a page. Good Search Engine Optimization will turn your URL up at the top of the searches for relevant keywords. Don't go after keywords that do not reflect what your webpage is about. Going after such keywords will bring in customers who are looking for something other than what you offer. These customers will show up as low "Page Views" in your analytics - off subject keywords are a waste of time. See top of ThySEO Checklist for keyword mastery.

About web site development and design: what is important is that the HTML write-up needs to be error-free. Creativity is honored by all honest Search Engines. In Christian theory we can do what we want to our sites. But, to be superior, what we do must be close to perfect. Don't focus too much on design and development tips, rather use an HTML Validator and create what comes natural. If you don't know HTML code, there's no hope, so learn it now! There's no exuse for the incompetent webmaster because no-one really cares about your business.

About slow loading sites: I do not like to visit slow sites because my time is valuable! The speed of your site is 100% the webmaster's responsibility. To make a website fast, a webmaster must have error-free HTML write-up. Do this by using an HTML Validator. Don't avoid validating just because your webpage looks good on the web. Incorrect HTML write-up is not visible from looking at your website. The second thing that causes a fast loading page is minimizing the bytes on the page. So, take out all the write-up clutter and blank spaces in your html. Also, minimize the use of tables. Take my word, I know these tips work. (see Speed under Site Stats)

DIY Search Engine Optimization Specialist

My name is Scott Coplen and I live in San Jose, California. I own 19 web sites that improve in keyword rank every 10 or so days at Google, Yahoo and msn. This site, my favorite, currently ranks in the top 10 at Yahoo and Pakistan-Google for SEO Tips and other keywords. This site is a valuable resource in that it contains proven SEO Tips for keyword rankings based on my 5 years of do-it-yourself experience. [see ThySEO Work] I have tested popular online advertising techniques and I am confident that organic SEO is the best way to maximize your website's profits. I am currently unavailable to work on any sites not mine, but I am updating this website as a free resource for all webmasters. My Organic SEO testing is an ongoing basis.

My favorite questions:

1. Could Effort to serve others be a habit?

2. I make a large income but I have encountered a procrastination roadblock to continue completing my everyday priorities: How important is making a large income to Jesus when he was not a big money maker?

3. Do you know that building quality backlinks [see ThySEO Checklist #3] is the most important thing you can do to increase website traffic? Keyword rankings must be seen as your top advertising goal! Have you seen the low quality of traffic that costly pay-per-click brings in? Pay-per-click is NOT the way to maximize your profits! It's link popularity for top organic keyword rankings. That is it! Why not commit your work schedule to 4 hours of backlink building, every work day, before anything else gets started? [see ThySEO Work Schedule] I know if you do this, you will increase the love you have for your work because you will have top ranking keywords! As a webmaster, what is better than realizing this?

My Statement based on experience: "Acquiring affordable home page or high Google PR inside backlinks weekly will dwarf all other top rank reasons. There is no limit to the amount of free text links a webmaster can obtain, but these links are seldom Google PR 4+. What webmasters could do is take a small risk and commit to spending $1000+ a month on text advertising. [see ThySEO Checklist #3] Ever think about getting a small business loan and going all out on manually-added text ads? This may be the only way to permanent top ranking for high hitting keywords. Do you already have an ad budget? Why not shift your focus away from pay-per-click and master the art of acquiring text links now? A good place to start is by asking to purchase a quality backlink. [see Thy 3rd Email Script]" - Scott Coplen

About buying manually added quality backlinks: I am always looking to buy manually added text links at an affordable price. Know of any sites? I will buy right now! Could you email me a web address at Scott? Once a month, I'll buy off of ebay using keyword search "text link" because the cost is very low. [see Thy SEO Checklist Technique #3.3] But, ebay has a limited amount.
