Why Sites with More than 1 Page are Usually Way Better

Why are sites with more than 1 page usually so much better than people seem to think?

In a word:  SEO – aka – Search Engine Optimization.

Single page websites with fancy scrolling tools and sliders have become all the rage.  Certain “experts” are advising their clients that if they want to be successful in the 21st century, they need to use a single page site, rather than the “old-fashioned” sites with more than 1 page.

But this kind of advice could kill your SEO and thus your online presence.  In other words, it could take the bottom out of your bottom line!

The reasons are multiple:

1. Single page websites are often way too long.  After all, no matter how you arrange your website, you have to get your Why Sites with 1 Page are Usually Better
message out in a way that let’s visitors know who you are and what you’re all about.

2. Because of the tendency for a single page website to be long, it will often take way longer to load than sites with more than 1 page.  By the time everything loads, your visitor may already have lost interest.

Reason why should should choose your plugins wisely

The answer might surprise you.

Have you ever bought one of those extension cords that has all the outlets to plug into?  Made sense, didn’t it?  You could plug a lot of things into the same wall outlet and your life just got a lot easier…

But wait.  Did you find it frustrating after a while when nothing seemed to stay plugged in any more? Did the breaker for the wall outlet ever “kick?”  Did you ever notice the cord getting hot? » Read more

SEO Ethics: 3 Black Hat Tricks vs White Hat Methods for SEO

SEO ethics are sometimes disregarded in favor of “Black Hat” tricks for their perceived lower website ranking time when “White Hat” methods are far superior in the long run.

In old Western movies, the “good guy” would ride around in a white hat, taking care of all the bad guys, who were typically clad in black hats. Just think about the Lone Ranger, for example. In the world of SEO (search engine optimization), competition is fierce, as positioning on the front pages of search results is key to your website’s performance. Before you begin promoting your site, it is important to look at some of the characteristics of white hat and black hat search engine optimization methods.

Link Baiting and Your SEO in 7 Super Easy Steps that bring you success

Link baiting used correctly is a great SEO strategy. Creating traffic to your website or blog by generating content that others want to share is a not only a perfectly legitimate effort.  It’s frequently a dream come true for businesses trying to get attention. Use these tips to consider possible ways you can incorporate link baiting into your pursuit of improved SEO.

1. Develop a link baiting strategy

Begin to develop a link baiting strategy for your content by studying content you’ve received from others. Think about some of your favorite shared content.  I’m talking about content you couldn’t wait to send out to others.
