Search engine optimization as a whole is a very involved process. I would suggest setting aside an hour or two a day to devote to SEO. There are tasks that you will perform once, tasks that will need attention monthly, and tasks that can be done daily.
One time tasks include:
> Submit your site to all major search engines and directories
> Create and submit an XML sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools and Yahoo! Site Explorer
> Create robots.txt file to allow crawlers access to your site
Monthly tasks include:
> Add fresh content or refresh old content on your site, this includes individual page meta data
> Check Google Webmaster Tools for errors and adjust accordingly
> Look for opportunities to cross link your pages using quality in-line text
Daily tasks include:
> Build links
> Build more links
> Build more quality links
So this article did nothing but prompt more questions, right? Fear not, this is the first article in a series of 4. Look for Search Engine Optimization Steps for Success: Part 2 next week. In the mean time though, feel free to contact me with any immediate questions.
