The story of one SEO

One day I decided to promote a website for software development. There are many ways to do SEO, so I decided to start with white-hat SEO. So let's begin. Content uniqueness is an important trait of a website. You can use copywriting and write an article from scratch, or rewrite an existing one and repurpose someone else's work. The key is not to do blatant copying. I think that for technical articles aimed at generating service orders, rewrite is like manna from heaven. A popular program such as Advego Plagiatus helps check content uniqueness. There is also the foreign service http://www.copyscape.com, which I personally liked a lot. Note: if the text is well optimized for keywords, achieving 100% uniqueness is not realistically possible. A normal unique text is usually around 85-95%. success.

White-hat SEO methodology

When registering a site in directories, it's very important that the directories match your site's theme. In addition, it is desirable that the directories have good trust with search engines. http://mastertalk.ru/topic10519.html — an old FAQ, but it may still be useful.

Where to register a domain

There are many domain registration services, so it is not that easy to find a suitable one. Here are some services I have personally checked:
  • http://dom-reg.ru
  • domains.webmoney.ru
  • http://www.domenaru.ru/

Where to read about domain registration?

As far as I know, this resource explains it well: http://seokiller.ru/zarabotok/86-poshagovoe-rukovodstvo-dlya-nachinayushhix.html

Where to get hosting

If you want cheaper hosting, you can use: http://firstvds.ru. But quality is not guaranteed.

Semantic core of the site

  • what is the purpose of the site?
  • what do we expect from the visitor: buy, register, click...?
  • who is the site for?
  • what query would you type in a search engine?

Basics

  1. Include keywords in TITLE and description tags. The snippet is usually generated from the description. Do not include the title in description.
  2. Use the keywords in the meta keywords tag that you used on the page.
  3. Use headings H1-H6. H1 describes the whole page; H2 is for subsections, etc. For example, look at a newspaper or magazine to see how headings and subheadings are arranged.
  4. Keywords should be used in different cases, word forms, and phrases. The most important keywords should be marked with the STRONG tag.
  5. Convenient site navigation
  6. Sitemap. Link to it from the root page.
  7. robots.txt
  8. Unique content
  9. Registration in link directories and white directories with direct links.
  10. Anchors of 1-3 words (combinations, word forms...) no more than 70 characters
  11. Short directory descriptions up to 250 characters and detailed ones 500-1000.
  12. For every 100 directories — 6-10 titles, 1-2 short descriptions. For the whole project — 2-3 detailed descriptions
