This may seem like old hat to many SEOs, but it's a tip that never fails to get an "oh yeah!" during client meetings. The concept is simple - in any given search engine optimization campaign, you are naturally going to form a list of high-traffic, (perceived) high value keywords that are an idealistic goal for your site to dominate. For a site like SEOmoz, those might be the highly competitive terms like "SEO" or "Search Engine Optimization," while in a field like BuddyTV's it might be "tv shows" or "tv news."

What's up, YOUmoz! Ok, enough small talk. I'll get right to the point.

I have a 2-page website that I created for the sole purpose of having something to link to from my SEOmoz profile page. My site doesn't really do anything or provide any useful information, but I use it to experiment on sometimes. Over the past 3 months, I've written several YOUmoz posts that include links to my site with the anchor text World's Greatest SEO. I chose this phrase because it amuses me... plus it has virtually zero search traffic, and therefore, zero competition. In other words, simply using that phrase in my home page's title tag was enough to get into Google's top 10. After a couple of my YOUmoz posts linked to it, I easily grabbed the #1 spot in Google.

As I said, blogging is light this week, but I couldn't help but notice this thread at Metafilter. How can we fight against such entrenched misinformation and stereotypes?

SEO people remind me of "weight weenies" in the bicycle world. Instead of focusing on training and riding and getting faster through practice, weight weenies obsess over how many grams lighter their new water bottle cage is, and forever want to discuss the lightest possible wheels they could put on their bikes to make them "faster"....
