    WordPress SEO: Are You Missing This Crucial Secret?

    WordPress exploded onto the scene in 2003 and quickly established itself as one of the best content management systems in the world. It’s easy to see why. It offers one of the most user-friendly interfaces around and equips users with excellent features and functionality, both free and paid.. Because of this immense popularity, there exists a staggering amount of plugins with which writers can optimize their blogs.

    I (and many others) love that the platform builds in much of the SEO into the blog design. Even an SEO newbie can properly optimize their blog posts using a tool such as All-In-One SEO.

    However, proper optimization isn’t easy. You must take the necessary steps to write SEO-friendly posts to fully use the platform’s potential.

    ASEOHosting Clarifies IP Geolocation and ccTLD Impact On International SEO

    Hudson, FL, February 24, 2014 – ASEOHosting, a provider of premium multiple IP hosting, has commented on the confusion surrounding the optimal use of IP addresses for search engine ranking in specific geographic areas. Many business web masters and SEOs do not have a clear idea of the best strategy to ensure that market-specific sites have the greatest chance of ranking well in the regions they target.

    Google employs over 200 signals to determine relevance, authority, and quality of content. Among the signals are country-code top-level domains and the location of the site’s server as determined by IP geolocation. Together these factors form a strong signal that a site is relevant to a region.

    Google+ and SEO: What You Need to Know

    Since its introduction in 2011, Google+ has been hailed as a ‘Facebook-killer,’ “the biggest change in communications since the interactive website,” as well as a ghost town and a ‘complete failure.’ Whatever your thoughts on Google+ on a personal level, with 540 million active users monthly, you can’t afford to ignore its ramifications on your SEO.

    Why You Should Never, Ever Spin An Article

    Writing can be pretty rough work, and putting together a piece of quality content that’s both properly search-optimized and valuable to the reader can be a very tall order.

    Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could simply take a single good piece of content and turn it into a hundred pieces or more without having to put in any extra effort?

    Wouldn’t it be great if, instead of having to pay a hundred writers, you could simply pay one and sell the same piece a hundred times?

    Actually, that’s entirely possible – and completely inadvisable.

  • Bold SEO Predictions for 2014

    Bold SEO Predictions for 2014

    The only constant in search is change. Every time you think you have Google figured out, they switch it up again. The search engine giant kept the SEO world guessing in 2013 by changing their algorithm over five hundred times, a trend that will most likely continue this year. It’s important to stay a step ahead, so in that spirit, here are five bold SEO predictions moving forward in 2014.

    Conversational Search via Natural Language Processing

    In 2013, Google made most keyword data private. Many saw this as a war on keywords. Currently, the “Not Provided” rate is 82%. Experts anticipate this number will reach 100% by June.

  • Rap Genius vs. Google: What Really Happened?

    Rap Genius vs. Google: What Really Happened?

    In the continuing saga of big companies implementing SEO strategies that get them a spanking, Rap Genius has had its SERP positions wiped out by Google.

    Rap Genius is a lyrics site that allows its users to comment on lyrics, explaining and analyzing their meaning. The lyrics industry is a cutthroat niche, with a large number of sites fighting it out for the top SERP positions.

    Rap Genius stands out among competitors. Its site quality and insightful commentaries are excellent. However, the company’s owners apparently disagreed. They implemented a link-building strategy. Even a novice SEO would have called it unwise.

  • Matt Cutts Comes Down Hard On Guest Blogging

    Matt Cutts Comes Down Hard On Guest Blogging

    In an uncharacteristically forthright blog post, Matt Cutts, head honcho of Google’s webspam team, lashed out at the practice of guest blogging. Apparently infuriated by what is probably the millionth automated spam email from low-grade online marketers offering to produce content for his blog, Cutts seems ready to go to war with guest bloggers.

    “Okay, I’m calling it: if you’re using guest blogging as a way to gain links in 2014, you should probably stop. Why? Because over time it’s become a more and more spammy practice, and if you’re doing a lot of guest blogging then you’re hanging out with really bad company.”

    If you haven’t already, you should check out the post to understand the nuance of his position. Of course, a backlash is already well underway, with many apparently having missed that nuance.
