So if you're a webmaster or blogger or Internet Affiliate Marketer, you are probably aware of what SEO is by now (Search Engine Optimization). SEO is a multi-million dollar business and you need to do it (or get it done) in order to get your site ranking higher in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages).
But some people seem to think that SEO is simply a matter of building lots of links to your site from anywhere you can get them and as quick as possible. No no no! This is seriously wrong and doing that will probably get your site penalized and your rankings will tank or worse, Google will deindex you. SEO is an art. It's a science. But it's not rocket science. And you'll need to do it if you want your customers to find your site in the SERPs. But you'll need to do it properly and not expect to get #1 overnight!
Why Does Your Website Need to do SEO?
Doing SEO on your website will increase it's ranking in the SERPs so that it increases your Search Engine presence. Any website that sells products, services or simply wants to get more Search Engine (organic) traffic will need to do SEO. And with more and more people getting online today and searching the Internet for reviews, testimonials, information or comparisons. By doing SEO and gaining better rankings for it, it's your site that they will possibly find for those reasons.
Essential SEO Ranking Factors
So you've got your site up, you've spent weeks/months adding tons of great content to it. You've tweaked your site a billion ways and have considered all the many on-page SEO ranking factors. Now you're ready to do some off-page SEO on your site. But there are some things you should know about off-page SEO as well before you start. It's not just about building a ton of random backlinks to your site. These days, Google puts a lot of emphasis on the quality and "relatedness" of those backlinks. Google has rolled out tons of algorithm updates that take a lot of things into consideration when ranking a website in its SERPs.
Just some of those ranking factors include;

Thanks Lynne. There's no need to be left behind when it comes to building backlinks. I posted a guide before that shows [url=https://www.seoclerk.com/faq/18235/Where-and-How-to-Get-Your-First-50-High-Quality-SEO-Ranking-Backlinks-for-Your]Where and How to Get Your First 50 High Quality SEO Ranking Backlinks for Your New Website[/url]. And don't forget my guide on [url=https://www.seoclerks.com/faq/17551/50-Verified-Ways-to-Share-and-Distribute-Your-Affiliate-Links-Services-Products-or-Offers]50+ Verified Ways to Share and Distribute Your Affiliate Links Services Products or Offers[/url] which can also be used/useful for building high quality backlinks. Then my guide on [url=https://www.seoclerk.com/faq/10063/10-Link-Building-Methods-for-Newbie-Webmasters-to-Increase-SERP-Ranking-With]10+ Link Building Methods for Newbie Webmasters to Increase SERP Ranking With[/url]. It really is just a matter of choosing something you like the look of, something you think you could do and just, well doing it. Blog commenting for example, you remember my post on [url=https://www.seoclerk.com/faq/10145/How-to-Boost-Your-Sites-Traffic-and-Increase-Your-SERP-Rank-with-Blog-Commenting]How to Boost Your Sites Traffic and Increase Your SERP Rank with Blog Commenting[/url]? It's just a matter of finding the time to do it though and that I can understand and relate to! :)
As for OG META tags. The best thing to do is check out The [url=http://ogp.me/]Open Graph protocol site[/url] as it explains what it's for and how it works. If you're using Yoast SEO plugin for WordPress it lets you set these from that too. :)

I can not tell you about all the services, or SEO "Gurus" creating services that will completely tarnish your SEO rankings. There is many services that provide thousands of low quality, unrelated content backlinks. These buyers usually drop in the rankings and wonder why their website is ranked lower after ordering. It's best to just get quality backlinks with content that is similar to your own, and to also use social networking sites for the social signals. This is what I do, and my websites seem to do fine with their keywords. Hopefully some sellers, and other freelancers will see this post and make changes. Great post, Mike!
