Blog with Me! Spiders are a Good Thing!
Blogs are One Place You Want Spiders Crawling All Over!!!
There are a couple of points about spiders and blogs -- completely relevant!
How SEO works:
There are electronic spiders or “bots” at work all the time checking out your site, following links and heading to the next. They copy links, record information and it never stops. This is how the search engines like google and bing have such incredible databases. The bots also read information in a certain way, that’s why tags, links and using certain words over and over in a certain order can be crucial. The bots like a road map!
Do your research:
My website www.tarahusband.com is really a big resume for me. It is not a very good website for SEO. If you look at www.lowmilksupply.com my other website with products, that is a website that has a specific niche market. I search google adwords and find people searching on words such as “fenugreek” which is the main ingredient in my product. However, on www.tarahusband.com when I look for people searching for “communications strategist” I get 0 people searching. It would behoove me to think ahead and change it to something in social media or find a more specific area to promote myself.
Do your research and collect the words that people are searching on around your target subject you want to write or sell. Google adwords is a great place to find them. Use those words in tags over and over, so the bots can pick it up. Label you pictures, videos and pods with these words. Keep linking even within yourself as you see me do now: http://blog.tarahusband.com/2010/09/08/blog-with-me--have-you-lost-your-way--linkinglooking-back.aspx. Bots like it!
When I make another website for my lowmilksupply tea products, I will have a page on each subject that they are searching on with links, videos, and all kinds of relevant information on each page.

All the Best!
