I think Matt and David is pretty much right but I will make my own comment on this…

For Beginners obviously there is no good place to start then SEOmoz guide to SEO Beginners…

But if you have done that step then you have to create your website, links, content and almost everything for user and make sure that you are helping user from your efforts…the more you will do work for user the more people will engage with you and you will be able to get top 10 rankings from your desired key phrases… and no Google animal can kill your rankings over night!

I agree with both these answers.

Start by reading the beginners guide to SEO -> make a plan for your site as you read the pdf and start implementing this.

After that Matt is completely right. Make sure visitors want to return and share your site with their friends.

Also use the web-master tips from google web-masters and bing web-masters for your site statistics. Learn how to analyze your analytics and take note of key factors here.

And be patient. Sometimes it take a while to rank well for specific keywords (also due to the facts Matt has described for you). Take note of this. Follow the white-board Friday video's and blog carefully, take notes and do something with the tips and pointers.

kind regards

You need to look at increasing your site authority, so I would start thinking how can you get links to the pages that rank for your keywords and your site as a whole. I would start thinking of ways that you can create content that gets visitors to keep coming back and spread the word to others. Social media is an excellent channel to start building up your relationships with authority/influencers who are related to your niche, by interacting with them on social channels you will eventually be able to put your content in front of them and this will lead to increased exposure and links.

When people ask this question I always say that you should consider a blog if you think you can build a decent one as part of your site and its niche. A blog requires hard work and you must persevere in keeping the posts coming in order for it to become successful. When creating a blog I would also suggest thinking about asking people to guest post on your blog especially those related to your industry who have a good following already.

You also want to think about ways you can create content such as how-to guides and videos. There are lots of good methods out there and I would suggest you search for link building on here to gain a more in depth insight.

Essentially what I would say is remember - great content + exposure = links

links = increase in site authority and in turn ranking.

Obviously make sure you also have all the on page factors in place for any content h1 headers, page titles, etc, oh and a good internal link structure for your site.

Hope this gives you some food for thought...
