Remembering the Basics of SEO

All too often in the search for better ways to improve ranking those of us in the business of doing many different tasks are guilty of forgetting the basics.

My girlfriend remarked something to me yesterday about needing to decide on keywords before using them in descriptions – which is of course correct. But there are many times when I haven’t stopped to concentrate on the placement of keywords in the description that match keywords exactly as used elsewhere.

The truth is that I don’t spend enough time concentrating on the simpler aspects of SEO before running off into the off-page paradigm.

What I have learnt today…

I think the main reason I started this blog was to note to myself the things that I learn as I go on.

Coming from a MS Server background, each day I amass more knowledge and remember less of what I used to know.

Many times I have searched the web for an answer and ended up having to figure it out for myself. This blog will give me the opportunity to remember those things and pass on the experience

Starting off here

Welcome to the new blog for Aaron Reynolds

Here you will find things relating to Internet technologies that I deal with on a regular basis.

Most of the blogs will contain C# code that I have used to solve a problem, other things will be related to some server technologies and fixes that I have needed to implement or had difficulty finding information about on the web.

Many times I have found the solution to a problem in someone else’s blog. Now I intend to share the experience I have as I develop web sites, web services and windows apps in and out of the work-place.
