Why's everyone so mad about SEO?

On forums that I visit, people are raging about SEO, saying how it's all faked now; how SEO is dead. But then Google says another thing if you read their blog. What's the truth?

To establish yourself as an authoritative site, you will want to role model other sites such as Wikipedia and WebMD.

Create an extensive library of Wiki how to tutorials and articles on your site within your niche, ensuring that each page is packed with the most information possible. Don't just use short posts and think your site will get ranked well. These short posts don't do your readers any good and Google won't reward for that.

Point well made Beverly. Longer posts will be sure to get google to like it much more. Think high quality as well.

SEO is not dead all you need is fresh content

Google gets upset when you are backlinking just for SEO but they don't mind if your intent or motive is to inform the reader. A backlink is usually given on good articles. It's easy to spot a bad article that is published just for backlinking. If you do the right thing, you will be rewarded in Google search. If you do wrong, you are likely to be penalized and then you will be mad.

I think this is right. Google will reward you for generated useful content with articles. What you want to consider is how you link back to the article when you post it to your personal blogs. I always like to link back to the original article some where in the text with a keyword. I also found out that it doesn't matter where you publish your article but I prefer Ezine. The thing about it is how you link back to the original article.

Could you recommend a few sites for backlinking to articles in this way, in addition to Ezinearticles? I'd love to hear which sites are working for you.

Well ma'am I have a list of blogs and that is what really does the trick. In my personal opinion it doesn't matter where you publish the article as long as you utilize hypertext to link back to the content with the keyword. If you would like I would run my process for you for nothing. When it works you could review my service for me and help me get more sales. I use:
http://www.goarticles.com because they allow 4 link text in the resource box.
http://www.articlebroad.com

If you point article links at articles that you've already written then that will give you that much more link juice. This way you only have so many links pointed at your site to build the links around.

Sounds good. Could you link to a page on SEOClerks, such as one of the services, rather than just a page on a blog?

Yes, you can direct link juice where ever you wish.

If you take time to cater to your reader, there will be no reason to fear Google. At least, that's what Google is saying, how they want sites created for the end user, not targeted at the bots which index sites.

I don't buy into it that SEO is dead. Some may think that it might be but I can not see that ever happening.

Some people just misunderstand what SEO is all about and that can lead to messing up with Google. It doesn't help that Google constantly contradicts themselves and changes the rules.

Maybe you heard of our little content marketing experiment. We were unsatisfied with the results our SEO company was producing, so we decided to take matters into our own hands. We decided to start a content marketing blitz on Blog.LogMyCalls.com.

Our goal was simple: produce 150 highly relevant, useful, fresh blog posts in 50 days. In other words, 3 blog posts each day. This was a huge increase from our 2 – 3 blogs each week. We assumed that this would increase our traffic (though, we didn’t know by how much).

It worked.



  • In 50 weekdays (10 weeks) the organic traffic to our site increased by 69%.
  • The organic traffic to the blog increased by 514%.
  • The referral traffic increased by 901%.

During the process we decided to part ways with our SEO company. It was clear that their 9 months of work had not generated the results that our few weeks of content marketing had. This SEO had clearly not embraced content. MANY other SEO companies have. Those that have are awesome and will stand apart from their competition


This just goes to prove that more fresh, relevant content on your site daily is the key to increased traffic. Sometimes, this traffic will come from Google, other times it will come from sites where your readers have shared your links.

SEO will never be dead. It has just evolved.

People think if few clicks on software don't bring a website to first page, SEO is dead. You just need to work harder and evolve. Where would we be if old methods still worked? Thousands of people are using same old tactics with same old software and when Google hits them, all of a sudden "SEO is dead".

In 2014 people still use Turbo Wizard on Senuke Xcr, people still use Pligg bookmarks as Tier 2, still use AA public sites spammed to death for backlinking, Scrapebox blasts and and they still use free public online spinners, acting like Google is a company run by some local hippies in their garage. If they send shuttles into space, they surely can send duplicated content and bad backlinking practices to hell. Why

I know that SEO is still growing and I know of website owners who still don’t know about the benefits of SEO. In some discussions that I had read, there were testimonies of getting a higher percentage of traffic from the SEO work they did on their site. It means the traffic from search engines is higher than the usual traffic that it gets. If that is accurate then it means SEO is highly beneficial to the site in terms of traffic.
