SEO Mistakes
Avoid making SEO Mistakes.
Search Engine Optimization or SEO is the main principle to be concerned with trying to generate traffic via a search engine. Some webmasters or article writers make costly mistakes that hurt SEO. We will look at a few key things that will show you how to avoid these mistakes.
- The SEO Stutterer- The person who is writing an article and is using keywords over and over. SEO has to come natural in the flow of your writing. If you are writing a particular subject and want to emphasize certain text don't go crazy and overdue it. If you were talking to a friend let's say about buying a car for the first time. If you repeated that phrase ten times during a conversation then you probably wouldn't have a friend any longer. It is simply annoying to keep repeating the same thing. Think of a search engine as your friend and make sure not to annoy it.
- Write enough words- This isn't always true but for the most part you want to make sure you are writing enough. I could probably work on this but I don't like my hubs to be too lengthy myself. Make sure you have at least 350 words. Search engines like content again don't over due it.
- Building Links- When you build links you want to be specific in titling them. If you are writing about fast cars don't just build a link and tell readers to click on it. You want to add more information so search engines will show you some love. Write something like click here for information on super fast sports cars.
- Use keywords in your title. If you are writing about those fast cars we discussed and the title of your article has no mention of fast cars then you will more than likely be indexed in the search engine. Make sure to emphasize your keywords in the title and have them in your body of work.
Keep working on learning about SEO and avoiding mistakesyou will definitely succeed with your online ventures.

I really enjoyed your article about SEO. I have learned so much about search engine optimization from the site! I too have made the mistakes of over stuffing keywords into a document too. You are so right about this sounding unnatural, and we probably loose many of our readers by doing this.
I think this is a great simple article about SEO. it is a great thing to not have to stress over it constantly.
Great to read something about SEO that is easy to understand, for too long I have struggled with it simply because it felt like it was more daunting than it actually is. This hub makes it feel far less stressful, thank you.
successfulblogger - I included this hub in my latest hub luv #12. Great hub!
Ok, I am safe for now, I haven't overdone anything yet and I have been following the good things to do you mentioned in the Hub. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.
Thanks, successfulblogger. This is very helpful. Question. Do you write and article and then pick out words used to be keywords? Or is it the other way around? You pick out key words and write the article to include them? I've been doing the former.
