If you feel like you have tried all the easy promotion methods, try some of these SEO tips and techniques from reputation armor, because they are not that hard to apply and there is only a few guiding principles to follow. Also if you make any blunders, you can effortlessly correct them by merely making revisions to your pages and monitor whether there are any positive changes. Here are some of the tips and techniques that you should keep in mind while optimizing any website.
Tip # 1 from Reputation Armor :Use the Right Amount of Keywords
Certain keywords are what drive the article to the top results of search engines. Dispersion of these keywords across the article, title, headers, and other areas will be an indication to the search engine to index these. On the other hand, don’t overlook that search engines won’t be the only ones reading the content as your real target audience which are people will be reading the content and if the content has too many keywords, either the idea is lost or the reader could conclude that the article is there solely for advertising purposes. Try to limit yourself to at least 3-8 keywords or have a 3-5 percent keyword density and make sure that the keywords are far apart (50-100 words apart should be fine).Using excessive amounts of keywords may also be bad for some search engines like Google and may result to your page rank decreasing. If you really need to have lots of keywords in large articles, try to incorporate different keyword phrase variations and use them sparingly.
Tip 2 from Reputation Armor: Create Quality Content
You can have the best keyword system in an article, but if the content isn’t very good, you might not be getting the sales or opt-ins that you anticipate. Not to worry though because all you need to do is read the content that you have made yourself and put yourself in the customer\’s perspective and make a conclusion whether or not it is interesting and what parts make it uninteresting. Answering all of the questions that come to mind while using good keywords will significantly drive more interest.
Tip #3 from Reputation Armor: Be Consistent
When you finally got the hang of search engine optimization, don’t stop there even if you positioned numerous articles on your site and in other areas. Keep going and keep your site updated with fresh content while still applying the keyword tricks mentioned earlier. If you think your site is popular enough, remember that competing websites may try harder to climb up the search engine results and page rankings. Make it a habit to produce more appealing content for your site and work on getting new links to take your site to higher levels. If you have trouble doing this, you can install a blog or forum to your site to make content sharing easier, yet still indexable.

Google has always maintained that the search suggestions that appear when you type in a company name or keyword are set algorithmically and they shouldn’t be required to make changes to these suggestions or remove words like Scam, Lawsuits, Fraud and Reviews from the suggestions.

It is common for people to make searches that include words like “scam”, and “lawsuit” in order to perform due diligence and check out a company. The Google suggestions algorithm just seems to pick up the search activity and, voila, you’ve got a nasty bit of potential defamation included in the suggestions box — even if there is little or nothing online about the topic.
I’ve seen this happen with “searches related to” suggestions as well, when clicking on the link sometimes provides only one or even no results! I’d say this is an algorithm in dire need of attention. Google should not be so academic as to ignore the effect that their Suggestion can have on a company’s reputation.
Even if it is automated, Google is still publishing the suggestion. That means they should be subject to all laws related to defamation, slander and libel. Google is working very hard and very cleverly to amass great amounts of power. They need to match that power with even greater amounts of responsibility.
When you type in your company name in Google search, do they suggest you also search YOUR COMPANY + SCAM or anything negatively similar?
You can possibly take control of this and trick Google in to suggesting other words like News, Jobs or Pictures. The process can take months to accomplish but is possible. For more information on Google Search Suggestion manipulation contact Reputation Armor at 888-358-2766.

Only one day after its launch, major privacy concerns have been raised about Google’s new Gmail-based social-networking tool, Buzz.
The issue is a feature that compiles a list of the Gmail contacts who users most frequently e-mail or chat with. Buzz automatically starts following these people and makes the list public, meaning strangers can see who Buzz users have been in contact with.
The issue was noted by the Silicon Alley Insider on Wednesday. “Imagine … a wife discovering that her husband emails and chats with an old girlfriend,” the Web site said. “Imagine a boss discovers a subordinate emails with executives at a competitor.”
Buzz only shares information about other people who are using Buzz and have set up public profiles in Google. So currently, most Gmail users are not publicly listed by the service. Users can also “unfollow” people who they don’t want to be linked to.
And while Buzz requires users to set up a public profile before they can post messages, it does give them an option to hide who they are following and who is following them.
However, the default setting is to make the information public, and only users who click on an “edit” tab can see the choice to opt out. That means many people who start using Buzz may be publicly linked to other users without realizing it.
Reached Wednesday afternoon, a Google spokesman had no immediate comment.
Google introduced Buzz as an alternative to popular sites such as Facebook and Twitter, which are increasingly being used to navigate the Web.

Register your name as a domain: If you are lucky enough to have [insertyourname].com (or .net, .org, .info) available, snatch them up. The small fee is well worth it even if you don’t actively build a site using it because, at the very least, you are preventing your competition (other people with your name, or people who don’t like you) from ranking high for your name. Even better, use your domain for the site or wiki you are going to create
