Basic SE requirements:
- You need to have a keyword scheme
- In order to have a good SERP for a page keyword, it need to have the keyword repeated more than once
- Each keyword repetition is measured in percentage per text
- Each keyword should represented as a description of the page's content
- You shouldn't target more than 1 keyword per page, because you're a free site builder, it's not like developing a big site for SE results
- Mirroring is bad for your SERPs! While Google is looking for 85%+ similarity, the fact that there are MANY pages over 60% similarity wouldn't do you good. Otherwise said - you mirror your pages - Google knows! Use different doorways, link to the same main, gallery1, gallery2 pages.
- Don't underestimate the Sandbox process... It takes 3-9 months to get out of there
- Google is threating different pages differently, but they threat your whole domain equality - fuckup on 3 of your free sites and you get bad rep for all of your subpages
- Google likes filenames... filenames are declared by the creator of the site. If you put enough effort in making your fielnames meaningful, Google will appreciate it, being it CSS files, Images or HTML pages - everything is important
- Linkback - it's not important how many LL's you submit to, what it counts is who's actually linking back to you and for how long - traffic is a good thing, but with free sites it doesn't last much
- Make sure your HTML is valid. For instance, every fucking image should have an ALT tag!
- Optimize your HTML for blind readers. If you can make a blind reader software read your site properly - then you really have a SE optimized HTML page. That's the same way the SE's see your sites. If you can diable your page's CSS and still read it properly - then you've made it
- Don't waste your outbound links! Put rel="nofollow" on your sponsor links, for the SE's that is you never linked out your free site
- Don't forget inner linking. A site should always have inner linking. Without it, the only thing we can count on are the back and forward buttons of our browsers - a bot, like each surfer, should be able to travel your site without a back/forward history buttons in its "browser"
- Use the newest technology... RSS feeds, Google sitemaps, CSS/DIV based sites - these're a must nowdays - otherwise your site is out of date
Enough said... Somebody should put 5 stars on this thread, because I'm not repeating myself again!!!
