SEO Ideas for B to B Website?
-
Hi,
I am running SEO for a medium-sized B-to-B website. We sell cloud-based software to other businesses/organizations.
Our site currently consists of static product-related pages that already have been highly optimized (correct tags, rich content etc) and a blog that we updated regularly.
For 2012, I've been tasked with coming up with ideas to significantly increase SEO. Assuming no budget constrains, what are some other general content ideas / other strategies to increase SEO for a B-to-B website?
Some of my current ideas include: starting a keyword-targeted YouTube video series and acquiring more links. What are other tactics that could work for a b-to-b site?
Thanks!

Here's a couple of thoughts...
Research the keywords for which you optimized your product pages. Discover what similar keyword phrases (longer tail) searchers are using, then develop content that contains those longer tail keyword phrases and is of interest to your potential clients.
Are you tracking the ranking of your B2B product pages? I'd recommend using SEOmoz research tools to track the ranking of these keywords, focusing on either your most important phrases or those you believe you can rank for most quickly, then link build for those terms, with good anchor text.

For any business-related site, infographics are a great way to drive traffic and get high quality links without having to create a ton of unique content. You could use the same marketing approach as you would promoting your YouTube videos. When we've set up B to B websites in the past, we've also had a lot of luck creating widgets that link back to our site (like a widget helping users compare wireless provider coverage in their area based on data from all major providers).
You can also look for link exchanges with other businesses. You might promote some of their products (as long as they're not direct competitors) in exchange for them marketing some of yours.
Don't forget about guest posting and comments (especially with commentluv enabled blogs). If you're building for a brand name, it's easy to get links back to your site naturally using the website's name.

Maybe a idea is to write content the same as you do for the youtube videos only type them out.
You good made some good tutorials. Can you give my a link of the site so i can take a look?

Optimising a Dynamic website ?
A client has bought the Nostalgia wp theme. I've installed Yoast but because the website is ajax based and the content for the pages are dynamically loaded the plugin won't work. Or at least not to my knowledge? The developer doesn't currently have a solution, which from previous expereience it will never be supported. So I need some possible solutions here. Create a mobile site? Cons more time, more money etc Create non dynamic pages linked in footer area. Cons page duplication etc. It's a small niche so having the basic elements is imperative to getting it ranking.

The format for image SEO
Hi there. After looking at a few SEO videos relating to image SEO it seems important to ensure images are SEO'd just as well as pages. I however have a question. If the page is Meta titles the following: Online for Equine | Riding Clothing | Just Togs Latina Ladies Breech And this particular page contains five images which are each variants of this product, how is it best to SEO them? Would you go with the: Online for Equine | Riding Clothing | Just Togs Latina Ladies Breech Front Online for Equine | Riding Clothing | Just Togs Latina Ladies Breech Back Online for Equine | Riding Clothing | Just Togs Latina Ladies Breech Side and so on... Or would this result in keyword stuffing with Google's new over-optimisation rules. Would it be better to rename them so they are all individual? I am considering deleting the images, renaming them on the server as the SEO proof name and then re-uploading them so the Image caption = filename. Am I on the right track?

Redirecting multiple websites to a single website
I've been trying to run several truck accessory affiliate websites for a quite a while now. I've recently decided to combine all of my affiliate websites into a single community website. This way I'll be able to focus all my energy and link building into a single place and build up a single brand. My question is, how many websites do I try to redirect to the new website at a time? Do I need to spread this out? Or is it ok if I move all of my content and websites at a single time? I have around 30 websites that I could move to this new domain. Thanks! Andy

What are the SEO implications of a CNAME?
(please ignore ridiculousness of hypothetical situation) Lets say Amazon had a food division which was at food.amazon.com. I partnered with Amazon's food division and now food.amazon.com will point to my website (food.com). Amazon adds a CNAME record so food.amazon.com resolves to food.com. If food.amazon.com has built up significant page rank / domain authority, will food.com be getting those benefits? Also, lets say food.amazon.com/rice has a lot of PR / authority -- will food.com benefit from the value of those internal pages?
