Best Free SEO Tips To Boost Site Rank & Traffic

Many SEO consultants are reluctant to let you know exactly what you can do for free to achieve better search rankings. I'm not one of them I believe the more knowledge you can impart to your SEO client and the more they can do for them selves the better. It increases the ROI your SEO client gets from your SEO services and also reduces the amount of work you have to do freeing you up to to concentrate on the real technical and advanced techniques you need to employ to reach your clients SEO goals and objectives.

So here are the best free SEO tips to boost your site rank and traffic that I give to my SEO clients.

1. Develop and exchange back links with relevant and related websites in your industry.

This can be achieved really simply for instance if you sell products online see if you can get a link from suppliers or manufactures websites. The real trick is to get each link linking to a relevant page and the link text to contain targeted keyword.

2. Upload your company press releases to free PR distribution websites such as PRlog.com

If your company issues press releases these can be used as a great tool to generate awareness and traffic for your website. It is as simple as targeting the press releases to a particular product or event and uploading it to sites such as Prlog.com.

Some PR distribution sites will even allow you to include links in the text back to pages on your website. Most will allow you to this in the resource box at the bottom of the page were you can also include info about you and your company.

The other advantage is you will find your Press Releases indexed in news sites such as Google News which of your press release is any good will attract traffic to your website.

3 Add your site to Google Local Business Centre.

This is a very easy way to ensure that you website appears at the top of the Google search results for local searches for your services or products. The more adventurous of you can also add a coupon fro discount of free services you offer to local clients.

4. Find free directories that appear in the first 2 pages of a search you wish to be found for and add your company and website details.

5. Ensure that all you emails that you and your staff send includes your web address in the signature as standard. You will be amazed at how many clicks and traffic your site will receive from emails over the long term. Once you emailed someone it will be the first place they look and the quickest way for them to find your web address.

6. Add your site content that is of interest to social book marketing and social search websites such as digg, furl, searchles etc.

This is a great way to develop back links to your website but don't over do it otherwise you could be seen as a spammer. Little and often is the best course of action. Ensure that you make the title of the entries you add as attractive as possible yet still relevant to the content your book marking.

These are just some of the simple SEO tips anyone can do to help improve a sites traffic and search engine ranking, however these will never be as effective to employing an SEO consultant to work on your site. A good SEO consultant will even give you initial free analysis and recommendations based on this.
