Convincing search engines to list your site, commonly referred to as Search Engine Optimization (SEO) can be complex and slow, but when done right it is very effective and promotes your website to a lot of traffic over a long period very inexpensively.
In some niches, however it is extremely competitive and that not only in the numbers of competitors, but their quality. Big name websites will have teams of specialist webmasters whose only job is to work on getting listed on the first page of the search engines. If you think you can do a better job than these experts, go for it.
My SEO strategy is fairly simple, but consistent. I use it a lot and it works very well and I will write a whole blog on the subject before long. SEO is a fantastic way to get free traffic quickly to your site, but you have to start in low competition niches and have a thorough understanding of keyword research before you even get started.
I promise I’ll cover this in more detail in another post.
