Are you aware of the changes taking place in the SEO world, and that content quality now trumps keyword quantity?
I have never been an expert at Search Engine Optimization, and probably never will be… in fact it’s not a desire of mine to be..at least not now. There are so many different ways of spreading your message and leveraging your time and efforts to establish yourself as a leader and a person of authority in your niche, that for me, spending so much time on that one thing now I think would be counterproductive. Don’t get me wrong…. I’m a firm believer in choosing one thing at a time to become really really good at, before tackling the next. It’s just that there is so much to analyze, scrutinize, study, and test….and still from what I read no one ever really knows for sure, that I’m better perfecting that which I’m already somewhat good at and comfortable with.
There will come a time when I’m ready to get more into the finer details of SEO marketing, and I know it’s important, but I’ve also been reading and hearing that it’s all changing as we speak anyhow. Apparently keyword stuffing is no longer the way…it’s more based upong quality content.

General consensus for best practices for a page went something like this…
Although the keyword placements do not carry as much weight as they used to, there are still some important factors of placement for them… The following are still important:
Built to be shared through social networks – A well-optimized page should help to make social sharing as easy and seamless as possible, including:
So you see..there are some things even us SEO marketing amateurs can do to move up in placements and establish our identities and brands using search engine traffic…and I don’t know about you but I will be continuing to better my SEO marketing skills.
