Note: Before you begin, if you’re NOT 100% serious about getting your website to the top of Google, Yahoo, and MSN, don’t read another word. Only read on if you plan to put everything I will be teaching you into action. At the top of this lesson you’ll notice a download link. I like giving readers this option so that you can print off each of the lessons and take notes as you go along.

Ok, now on to lesson 1…

   

SEO Lesson 2.

Ok, so now we’ve selected our main 3 keywords:

  • weight loss story
  • weight loss picture
  • safe weight loss

Notice that all of the keywords contain the word “weight loss”. This will make things easier for us when we begin to optimize our offpage ranking factors which you’ll learn about later.

Let’s Optimize Our Webpage …

The first thing we need to do is select a page Title for our website.

Add a Title

The page title should Include ONLY our main keywords. The least amount of words you can place in the title, the more weight Google will give to each of the keywords and the higher you will rank.

SEO Lesson 3.

You may or may not have heard people claim they can get listed in Google in only 1-2 days. It seems that nearly 100% of the people you run across in forums act like in order to get indexed by Google within 48 hours is some miracle feat that can only be accomplished by doing some “top secret” marketing tactic or advanced optimization strategy.

Well, the truth of the matter is…

Getting listed in Google in under 2 days is quite easy!

First let’s talk about what NOT to do. This drives me absolutely crazy when I see people doing this, and is actually what I did at one time as well. After you read this lesson, DO NOT waste your time doing this. I repeat… DO NOT waste your time doing what I’m about to tell you.

SEO Lesson 4

I don’t know about you, but I get extremely excited when I see my new websites at the top of Google for the very first time. Making big changes in ranking is primarily done by what is called offpage optimization.

Earlier I mentioned there were two types of search engine optimization.

  • Onpage Optimization
  • Offpage Optimization

We’ve gone over the onpage optimization, so let’s move on to the offpage optimization which is what really makes a difference in your site’s ranking.

SEO Lesson 5

Let’s get right to it… The software I use to optimize all of my websites is called SEO Elite.
Over the years I’ve managed to purchase every type of SEO product ever available. Things from Web Position Gold, to Traffic Power to many others.

Guess what? Nothing worked. Yeah, their flashy, corporate sales letters drew me in and I ended up dishing out well over a thousand bucks on these programs. Personally, I think they target the audience of people that are just getting started with search engine optimization and just don’t know what they need to do. Whatever the case is, they got me to buy.

Anyway, several years went by and I was beginning to get extremely frustrated with myself and these companies… So, finally I decided to just create my own program. Afterall, I’d been working as a full time computer programmer. I used it privately for several years and was starting to see some awesome results, to say the least.

SEO Lesson 6

Let’s analyze the #1 ranked website on Google for the search term, ‘diet information’. I’m going to step you through 1 of the many ways you can use SEO Elite to analyze and figure out exactly why ANY website is outranking you.

I think you’ll be quite surprised by all of the things SEO Elite will show you. So, let’s begin…

First we need to go to Google and enter the search term ‘diet information’. You’ll see that the number one ranked website is www.chasefreedom.com.

SEO Lesson 7

Now that we’ve analyzed the top ranked website in our niche, we need to do the necessary things to outrank them. As I taught you earlier, it’s not the onpage optimization factors that will give you the biggest change in ranking.

Remember, onpage factors include:

  • Page Title
  • Header tags
  • alt tags
  • meta tags
  • bolding, italicyzing, and underlining
  • Placing keyword in the correct position on the page

While onpage optimization is still something you should do, it’s NOT what will get you high search engine rankings. It’s the offpage optimization factors that will.
