Hi Simon,
Thanks for reading and your question. Recently, I wrote a blog post about link building, many of these items I mention in my post can all help build your online brand, generate visitors and increase the number of relevant links:

Thanks for your useful article. I guess there is no substitute for hard work and patience. I am interested in your comments on building a brand – makes sense to me but do you have any suggestions as to how this can be done on a low budget? I’ve been up and running about 4 months now with http://www.holidayhomesweb.co.uk.
Regards,
Simon

Hi Andym,

You’ve come to the right place. Nick provides loads of interesting tips here. It’s interesting to learn new ideas…especially internet stuffs. So you’re almost 50 but I’m already 50.

May we can’t compete with the young ones technically but being an “old” person, we tend to be a better master with “patience” which is the virtue for success.

All the best. Cheers!

Another excellent article on proper SEO! I sure enjoy your blog Nick. You do an absolutely fantastic job but gosh, if I keep telling you that you are likely to get a fat head!

I have never really thought of branding and website structure as you define it above as part of SEO but it is a good example of blending marketing into the equation as you always do. I like your philosophy of considering the person searching as part of the equation, not just the cold math of the algorhythm.

I am a DIY webmaster wannabe and liken this stage of my education to being a baby soaking up all the goodies like a sponge. There is so much though…good grief sometimes my brain wants to explode, but thanks for good information and giving me a sense of going in the right direction.

My grey cells need a rest now, perhaps i cannot compete with the youngsters out there eh…(so says an almost 50 year old beginner lol)

Cheers to all
Andym

ARG! How frustrating. I guess it’s good that any old joe schmoe can’t be all over the search engine ranks but I’m really serious about my site and don’t have the money to pour into PPC’s and such.

Good article. I am developing myself in the SEO world, and was wondering what formula, if any, one would recommend to more quickly move up the rankings with a new website, like this new one I put up just days ago. http://www.acousticguitarcd.com

Sure, it’s new, but pretty well optimized for content, has the added benefit of a keyword rich domain name, and obviously getting links is important. I realize a new website takes awhile, but from what I’ve seen, there are things that can overcome that.

Comments? . .and thanks.

Hi Sunny,
Thanks for reading and your buggy before the horse analogy is indeed correct!

I totally agree with that link building before on-site optimization is a lot like putting the buggy before the horse.That’s just what I learned from my years’ optimization experience.

Hi Angie,
Thanks for reading and I am happy to help!

Hi Norma C,
Registering your website for multiple years does help instill confidence so I do recommend this.

Hi there:

I was told that registering your website for 2 years is good so search engines know you are here to stay and not just passing through. Longer the better.
