I read a lot abouut how to Optimize your site for the search engines, and god knows there is plenty out there. The problem is that no one really KNOWS all the best practices. Even the big SEO companies who claim to know the secrets, have wiz-bang software and have special relationships with the engines (yea, right!) don’t really know.

They do know how to sell their services though. In fact, here is a great article on some of those big SEO firms from Rank Smart:
Why The Big SEO Company Is Killing The True SEO

But, back to the point. Over the next couple of weeks I will be posting a ten-step SEO program comprised of best practices for your site, as I see them, for travel websites. No guaranteed top ten Google spots, no guarantee that my collegues and counterparts won’t disagree with some of them (please post comments if you do), and it’s not meant to replace your proffessional SEO consultant (especially if that consultant is me). Just common sense things you can do to make your site more search engine friendly. It will have a slant towrad the travel industry as well, which is sometimes hard to come by in the general SEO media.

We’ll start tomorrow - stay tuned!
