Learn how to build a basic website

Before you learn the SEO techniques it is important to know the basics of web development. The given below tasks will develop the necessary web  skills needed to become a successful SEO:

Learn how to code a basic website without using a WYSIWYG editor – Don't fear the word code, writing HTML is much easier than you think. If you can make a sandwich with two pieces of bread and put something in the middle, you can write HTML. For help, check out this excellent tutorial. Remember, don't worry about SEO techniques at this point. Focus on learning how to build a website first.

  Code a website that contains the following:

• All styles with CSS. No Tables!
• Homepage has 3 unique paragraphs about you
• Atleast 3 pages total; homepage, contact and inner contents
  

Choose Your Keywords - Pick keywords that are uncompetitive and unique in nature. This is very important as the words you choose will become the center of your SEO efforts. I recommend using words or phrases which is very rare. Go to Google and search for your keyword. If a small amount of low quality websites show up, use your word as your keywords. If your name is competitive to rank for, find a variation of your keyword that is easier.

  Register a domain name and find hosting - This is not nearly as difficult as it sounds. I recommend SiteGround as good option. However, there are literally thousands of choices. Use your best judgment, but remember you shouldn't be paying more than $7.00 USD a month and the domain name should be included for free. Your only requirement is that your host can't have immovable ads. These could be crawled by the search engines and ruin your rankings. For your domain name, use your keywords from above. Ex. dannydover.com or dannybendover.com. If your keywords are not available as a domain name, choose different keywords. (Note: In this exercise, the keywords you are optimizing for and your domain name should be the same. Although this is not always the case in the real world, having similar keywords to your domain name makes SEO much easier.)

  Upload your website files to your new hosting account -  The easiest method is to use FTP to drag and drop your files. See your hosting provider for details.

  Sign up for Google Analytics and verify your website – This free tool will allow you to track visitors to your website. Installation instructions are included by Google.

  Wait a week and search for your keywords in the big four search engines – I generally use the rank checker tool as a shortcut. It is alright if your website doesn't show up. That is what SEO is for. If you do find your website ranking (even if it is not on the first page), record how it ranks in the major search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing) in a spreadsheet.

  Wait two weeks to allow search engines to find your site and for Google Analytics to gather data.


Learn more about SEO and apply it to your own website

  Learn basic SEO techniques and apply them to your  website. This will allow you to see how SEO can help your website ranking.

  Read the entire Beginner's Guide to SEO  in google– This is essential to building a strong SEO foundation. I also recommend reading the SEO guide in googel help.

  Read all of the Google Search Engine Ranking Factors –  These factors are based on the experience of some of the SEO industry's most successful people. so it  is also important to know the facts.

  Sign up for Google Webmaster Tools, verify and read everything – This resource will tell you how Googlebot sees your website and point out any SEO problems you have on your site. Be sure to familiarize yourself with it. The information it provides related toward Google but applies to all the major search engines.

  Run your website through the SEO tools – Specifically, I recommend ibusinesspromoter. This tool will point out areas where you can improve your website. and with the help of this tool u can very easily optimiza your website.

  Add a robots.txt file and a sitemap  - Although these are not really necessary for such a small site, familiarizing yourself with these files will be indispensable.

  Optimize your website with SEO tool – Optimize your Title Tags, URLs, Anchor Text, HTML structure (H1, H2), and keyword usage. This is the most importatnt part of any site search engine optimization.

  Link build – Add a link to your website on all of your favorite social media/networking sites. Feel free to try your luck with linkbait, although for a site with no competition this isn't really necessary.

  Track your site on -  Yahoo! Site Explorer

– Wait a month for Linkscape and Yahoo to find your links and then check to see what links are being counted. On Yahoo, be sure to select "inlinks except from this domain to entire site." Only the links on Linkscape are displayed in the order of importance.

  Check Google Analytics – By this time, you should see more interesting data from your analytics tool. Use this data to learn the basics of analytics and use it as a reference point while link building.

  Update your datasheet – Search for your keywords in the big three search engines again and again and look to see where your website ranks. Record these results in your datasheet. Tracking your data lets you see what techniques are working what techniques are not worth your time.

Test your own SEO theories and record the entire results - This is not really a task you can ever complete. 90% of all SEO information is already freely availableon net  if you can find it. Testing your own theories and getting good results will help you uncover the remaining 10% necessary to out perform your competition.

I strongly believe that if you complete all the tasks on this above list you will be definatly becom a good SEO. I recommend you to make point of above and take a print out and put it near your web machine so that you can track all poins.   Happy  SEO Learning...
