In-house SEO for dummies
-
I'm doing some SEO for a small company and they have a guy available to 'assist' me, but he isn't very SEO savvy. Also english isn't his first language.
If he could do 5-10 hours per week to help, and you were me, what sort of stuff would you show/teach him to do?
Thanks!

Hey Sven,
Thanks these are some good ideas!
Just got to try and keep his 5-10 hours full, shouldn't be too hard, fingers crossed!

Hi Tim,
These are the first things that came to mind:
-
Find blogs about a specific topic, write down the PA and email address of owner.
-
Find link directories relevant to your website, write down PA and email address of owner.
-
Get keyword difficulty data for a list of 1000 keywords.
-
Crawl website for 404's and give cms access to fix broken links
Goodluck and let us know how it works out!

Yeah good thought, but unfortunately the guy is kinda new there too! ha
Im also thinking content creation probably isn't his strong suit.
Any other ideas?

Hi timscullin
This is not an easy question... If I were you, probably focused on info about company. If that guy knows how the company works and who are the targeted customers, in his opinion.
Maybe he can help you to write about the company, and probably you'll be able to write content for landing pages more easily.
In fact, you must to see and decided how could that guy help me?
I hope this answered help you.

Will these pages harm the SEO of my blog?
Hi there, If I put download pages and thank you pages on my blog, will it harm the SEO rankings? As these pages will be pretty thin and will have no links to them internally for obvious reasons, it has me concerned about the effect it could have on my blog. I want to build my blog up to drive traffic, so it's not just a case of throwing the pages up. What is the best solution? No index the pages -- will that be enough? Warm regards Colin

Toxic Link Removal-Better to Pay an SEO Firm or Can I Do It Myself?
Hi Jen: Recently an SEO audit from a reputable SEO firm identified almost 50% of the incoming links to my site as toxic, 40% suspicious and 5% of good quality. They are of the opinion that it is imperative to remove the toxic domains. The fee for toxic link removal is about $3,000.I would prefer to save the $3,000 but would prefer not to take the risk of screwing up my ranking if this is a complex procedure best left to SEO professionals. My assumption is that link removal will involve identifying the toxic domains, requesting removal and eventually submitting a Google disavow request. Can I do this myself or is there a big risk of screwing it up? Assuming it is safe for me to remove toxic links, would anyone suggest software of tools for doing so? Thanks so much.

Real Estate and Vacation Resorts SEO
I am assigned to a few vacation resort sites for SEO plus a Real Estate site. I was hoping to get few suggestions from people that have worked on those fields before. Like good web directories for link building or even some good sites that I should have in mind for comparing mine. Thanks in advance

Can anyone provide any useful insights on how they use latest news items to help with SEO?
Hello, I have heard about SEO's and PR types riding off the back of latest news items that can be tied to the products or services they are trying to promote. Recently I read about how an SEO had distastefully written an article using the name of a famous singer who had sadly passed away and used this event as an opportunity to write about a small business models 😞 Can anyone provide any useful AND ethical insights on how they use latest news items to help with SEO?
