First, you need to know what keyword/s to target. Use Google Keyword Tool to determine the right keyword/s for your site.
(You need to know where you're heading.)

Second, do On-site SEO. This is like telling Google that your website is about something (your-keyword). You need to put your keyword/s on your meta tags, page title, h1, h2,,,, on the paragraphs on the contents. Do not keyword-stuff, Google will penalize your site.

Put your keyword on the filename of the images on your website - name your images like how-to-train-a-dog.jpg rather then image01.jpg. Optimize your images - acceptable quality but low file size.

If you will not properly optimize your website, Google will not know what your website is all about and therefore will not appear on Google Search results.

Once your website is done, use PageSpeed to determine how you can speed up site. Google loves websites that loads fast. You can also use CLoudflare CDN, it is free.

The main changes from Panda were:

Slapping sites that had a large number of low quality links, and

Slapping sites that used nearly 100% the same anchor text.

If you got hit, remove bad links (you can have Google ignore them from your webmaster tools account) and get some better link diversity.

Finally,. done with the ON-PAGE SEO.

Here guys I share some of the practices I learnt:


Proper keyword list is prepared and 2-3 keywords/page has been planned. (Keyword to URL map)

 For every webpage: Ensure Meta tags (Titles and Descriptions) are properly inserted. Title should be less than 64 characters and Descriptions 70-160 characters. Should fit nicely into a Google SERP listing.

 Footer linking is strong, complete to all second level pages (except pre-checkout and thank you pages for ecommerce sites). No need to use target keywords for footer links.


 Check for W3C validation and make fixes (Use The W3C Markup Validation Service to check for validation)

 Check for CSS validation and make fixes where needed (Use The W3C CSS Validation Service to check for validation)


 Check and clean out old/outdated/ dead links using Google Webmaster tools

 Verify that all Meta data is unique on every page.


 Optimize headline text and sub-headline text (on applicable sites)

 Ensure that contact page has proper information, address, phone number and Google map


 Proper keyword use in H1, at least one occurrence

 Proper keyword use H2-H6 Tags at least one occurrence in one of these tags.


 Check for Keyword prominence – Do the target keywords appear in the first line of body text paragraphs

 Custom 404 error page created that leads people to a desired internal page. (back to home page)

 Web page content should be at least 80% unique. Use spider simulator (Spider simulator tool) and cross-check with plagiarisma.net. Spot check 2-3 paragraphs per page with Google using the exact search (“content”) to ensure that we are ranking above others using our content. If not, re-write content.

 Check that keyword density within page content is 2-7% for one word keyword terms and 1-3% for two word keyword terms. (You can use this tool Spider simulator tool)


 Verify that all internal/external links are active. Avoid using anchor to text for internal links. Be random.

 Ensure all images have accurate ALT Tags using keywords set for that particular page. (You can use this tool to check for images that doesn’t have the alt tags for every page Image SEO Tool / Alt text checker)

 CanonicalURL check. All versions of the homepage should point to Create your website in minutes - Website.com

 Check browser compatibility. Try to open the site on these browsers and check for errors: Internet Explorer 8 and 9, Google Chrome, Firefox 14, Chrome 21, and Safari 5.


 Check for Flash and Ajax problems. Avoid using these technologies improperly on SEO friendly pages




 Create/install XML Sitemap. (You can generate the sitemap using this tool Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator )

 Terms and Privacy pages exist with unique content (relatively unique)

One I can suggest is link building..

Try to post comments on some blogs with a link named with the keyword you want that is redirected to your site.

This is not as effective as before... in worst case, this may even hurt your website's ranking. Better if you do Article Submission.
