Fantastic forum you gents have here, there is a wealth of information.
I am a bit overwhelmed and interested in where I should start? (on page optimization, off page optimization,
link building etc). Does the 80/20 rule apply to seo? Should I focus 80% of my resources on one key area?
If so which is that? Appreciate any advice you can provide, thankyou.

In SEO, one should start with the site analysis thing. Read the website carefully and try to see what the competitors are doing online.
List our the things your lacking and where they are lacking. Add them in your SEO activities and then start with your keyword shortlisting things.

First you have to understand What SEO is? Then analysis your website where is the weak point of your site. Then optimized for your website.

**greenlightning** · 11-22-2010, 04:02 PM

Your first step is to find out who you're trying to target w/ your website. Then try to come up with some search keywords & phrases that you would think people would type to find you. You next step is to go into a suggestion tool like Google Keywords Tool to get some concrete keyword suggestions. Try to find keywords/phrases that have high search volume and low search result competition that still relate to your website. Create a list, and then begin physically optimizing your website content with those keywords. One that's done, then you're ready to start doing "online" optimization and link building.

Easy quick wins to get started that will cost you nothing:

1. Relevant keywords that your target audience will search for
2. Install Sitemap.Xml for Google
3. Regularly add new pages in your site with fresh relevant content

If I had to start again, I will start and invest in valuable content. Optimize more for the human visitors and not for the robots
