SEO Checklist

When it comes to web design and development there are some basic SEO items that should be checked off. Here is my top 10 checklist.

1. Create separate Title and Meta Description tags for each page of you web site.

2. Use the name, title and alt attributes in your image tags and populate them with relevant key words

3. Include a sitemap.xml file and submit it to Google

4. Use the name, and title attributes for you link tags with relevant key words

5. Use text links whenever possible and avoid javascript links as much as possible

6. If your website is dynamic in nature ie… coldfusion, php, jsp, or ASP.NET use search engine safe urls it takes a bit longer to develop but the payoff is well worth it

7. Create a reciprocal links page but only exchange links with other relative sites

8. Write articles for newsletters and other relevant sites and include you websites link

9. Write a press release as often as possible and get it submitted.

10. Create an articles or information site and fill it with relevant content
