Thanks Keri

Hey, Thanks for the link  is it ok to submit your site to almost any directories you can find?  or does Google look at it as spaming or something ?

Daniel

Thanks that is a great help.

Regarding Majestics, I really cannot afford to pay for any other seo tools at the moment!

Cheers

Hi SEOMOZ'ers

I am trying to find high quality directories to submit links, finding it really hard to find them!!

Has anyone got any advise for seeking out such sites!  I have tried the tool within SEOMOZ but to be honest did not really work that well!

thanks

Daniel

great response, I love the....

You make a very valid point.

Content needs to be engaging, and if the content is just that,  you stand a good chance of uses sharing your content.

shares = exposure = more visits = more sales

Thanks dogflog,

I have got it now  thanks again for your great responses.

Have a great day

Hello dogflog,

Once again thanks for your reply

I have asked my e-commerce provider if I can install WP on a sub folder, however this is something that they are not happy to do!  They are planing an overhaul of the news system to work more like a blog, thus taking away the need for any 3rd party blog integration.

On your second note....

_  " The KW = Natural Beauty Products - should have its own page dedicated to it._

_     The KW = Organic Beauty Products - should have its own page dedicated to it_

_     The KW = Organic Beauty Product Reviews - should have its own"_

I have optimized my homepage (using page grader) for the keyword "natural beauty products"  my competitors have either used this keyword or "organic beauty products" for their homepage.

My point is, and please correct me if I am wrong, If I create a page after my domain "/natural-beauty-products"  this is going to be an article and is going to receive more "bounces" as people are searching for products not info!

Sorry if I seem like I am not quite getting it, I am trying honest  I just like to be 100% sure moving fwd.

And your last point, regarding linking to pages, that makes sense that not many people really create content linking to homepage. I understand that creating great copy  i.e. "Natural moisturises boosts skin radiance"  and then using anchor text links to my natural moisturiser category would be useful, as the users is reading the information and I have provided a link to view a range of natural moisturises, correct?

Thanks Miranda,

I will be watching whiteboard Friday, and I have reserved my spot for the upcoming webinars

Hi Dogflog,

This was exactly the kind of answer is was after, with out knowing it!  Thanks so much for a great response.

At the current time my e-commerce software does not have a blog, but it does have a news section, the software company are planing an overhaul so it has more blog features, i.e. categories, user comments etc..

I have blogger set up on a sub domain, but from what I can make out this not not going to be much benefit for me as search engines see it as a separate domain.

From everything I have read so far, it seems best if I post my content to my news section on my own domain targeting the selected keyword.

One thing I am not 100% clear on, lets say I write a 600+ word article on "Natural Beauty Products" do I include a keyword phrase link to my homepage & optimize my homepage for that selected keyword, as I understand it I do, however if I am mistaken please correct me.

Thanks again for such a great response
