We get so bombarded with people asking for SEO or internet marketing advice for a broad variety of small & mid range projects that I decided to set up a special page on the site specifically for these questions. Our project load has increased to the point where we’re typically only able to take on higher dollar clients, yet we still have time to do website checkup reports and provide assistance to smaller businesses and individuals at no charge.
If you have that SEO question which has just been stumping you or you’re setting up your own web marketing division at your ad agency and have a few questions or you just built a personal website and have questions about how to get your name ranking in search engine result pages, don’t hesitate to send those questions our way. We don’t guarantee that we’ll answer every question (be sure to read our fine print), but we welcome every question for free SEO advice or web marketing help. We’ll be posting the questions & answers on the Optibits.com blog here; feel free to join in the discussion by commenting, too–we never claim to be perfect.

For those of you who enjoy learning all you can about just how Google chooses to rank websites, I thought it might be good to start a category entitled “Do It Yourself.” I actually have a twin purpose for doing this–it will also give me a permanent archive to direct people to who ask me the same questions over and over.
To start things off, I’m going to refer you to an excellent research study compiled by SEOmoz dated April 2, 2007 in which 37 leading SEO experts were asked for input on a variety of aspects which are believed to affect a site’s ranking in Google. You’ll find the article an interesting & valuable read.

And, while we’re on the topic of SEOmoz, if you are super serious about learning SEO, let me throw a push for their premium content membership. The yearly plan is only $399 (compared to $49/month – note, pricing has changed since this post was written). You’ll have access to valuable tools including page strength, keyword difficulty, crawl test, and term target. Perhaps in a future post I’ll go into more elaborate detail on the tools. You’ll also have access to SEOmoz’s SEO toolbox (10 more tools), multiple SEO & linking guides and to the SEOmoz staff Q&A section. All of this is definitely worth its weight in gold. And I’m not even paid to recommend it
