In a recent article, Submit Express discusses some of the new changes happening in the search engine industry. They talked about three key areas of search engine optimizationthat must be addressed in order for SEO campaigns to be successful. The 1^st key component is “On-Site Factors”, which takes into account how “search engine friendly” a site’s overall structure is. This involves many site architecture factors including how easily the site can be indexed, if it uses Flash vs. HTML and if shopping carts are search-engine friendly.

The second important factor of SEO is website content. They note how important it is to have compelling content on the website that makes an impact.  This means having a proper keyword density along with making sure that the keywords are also used in titles and meta tags. It’s also important to have the right keywords highlighted: striking a balance of keywords in different competitive ranges will allow you to see short-term and long-term SEO growth.

The third key component of SEM is link building. They stress how important having both in-bound and out-bound links adds strength to your site in the eyes of search engines — it gives your site credibility and respect. However, this doesn’t mean that you should concentrate on just having the highest number of links possible! It’s critical to think about the quality of your links as well. In many cases, one high-level link can be more effective than several lower-level links.

There are several new factors that are changing the SEO industry and none are more important than social media. Every day, millions of people communicate with social media tools like Facebook and Twitter. Reaching these people can be a critical component of any online marketing campaign. However, any social media strategy needs to be more sophisticated than creating a FaceBook or Twitter page and posting your company’s latest specials.  Ideally, social media and SEO search engine marketing campaigns can be effective together while strengthening each other. A high-quality social media campaign that is interactive and engages audiences can increase in-bound links and improve search engine rankings. At the same time, applying smart SEO practices to social media content will increase the reach and visibility of your social media outreach.  Read the original article online at http://www.submitexpress.com/
