Ok, enough fluff on the front page.
I see my position slipping to the new guy and so it's time to get down to business.
I'm going to write a series of SEO tips This will be part 1 of the series.
1. Pick your topic and then choose and buy a domain name with at least 1 or 2 keywords or a key phrase in the name. Even if you don't use Godaddy, they have a nice feature wheGodaddyng for a domain name and that is the domain suggestions. Honestly, I've never found one of their suggestions of much value other than to spark ideas for a name that works.
2 Take advantage of free hosting. I'm not talking about forever here but start your SEO long before you're finished your site. Why pay good money to host a site that has no traffic?
3. Feed the spiders! You don't need a 1000 page website to get indexed - just a landing page and some text that has something to do with your chosen topic. It doesn't have to be well written or even very useful as long as it's on topic and has a few good keywords in it. You're feeding spiders at this point, not real visitors so appearance is not your first priority - you can spruce up the place while you're waiting to get indexed.
