Beanstalk's SEO News Blog

I've just discovered a great video series by Gareth Davies (gotta love that last name and no, there's no relation ;)

There are 6 videos in the series that range from 60 seconds to 5 minutes and cover a lost of the SEO basics. Garether does a good job of giving his viewers an understanding of the basics without using geek-speak or getting technical (at least, any more technical than necessary). The topics covered include:

• Title tags
• The site command
• Google's allintitle command
• The tilde command
• Google's cache
• Google's allinanchor command

For most SEO's there won't be anything new here for those of you who are just getting your feet wet these videos provide some useful information that's easy to understand and is explained with examples (always nice :)

You can watch the videos on Garreth's site at http://www.gsinc.co.uk/video/seo-videos.html.

This is also a good time to remind our readers about link baiting. It's becoming an increasingly important part of a solid link building strategy so be sure to read Andy Hagan's article on the subject.
