Following on from my last post regarding Search Engine Optimization Guarantees, I thought I would share another “spammy” approach some SEO organizations use.
Search Engine Optimization Approved By Google
If you see any company (or person) offering SEO services and they say they are approved by Google…they are lying!
In truth, Google does not approve any SEO company.
Just a short post this time to share that advice.
SEO can be very simple BUT hard work and it takes time to see results.
With that in mind I’m planning to share with you the simple steps to take to improve your website’s SEO.
Over the next few weeks, I’ll share with you the approach to SEO I take.
Some steps will be easy, some harder and some technical.
I’m looking forward to it and I hope you are.

Before starting blogging i was learning on seo and the company where i was working as seo trainee. highlighted in their site that there techniques are approved by Google. but when i saw their Alexa rank and Google page rank i was surprised but after that i thought this site new thats why its that high. after reading your this post i checked again they are sill around that Alexa rank and page rank dropped. thanks for helping newbie like me
Search engine optimization is not something that we hire someone, do and get done with it. It is a long term process and it should be blended within our business strategy!
Keyword research, creating good quality useful posts, promotion – all are part of search engine optimization and in my opinion only we, the business owner can do it at best than any 3rd party companies. We can outsource little tasks if they’re daunting but we should not outsource the main part itself!

I agree…things have chanegd over the past few years.
SEO is now it’s about great content and promotion.
Andrew
Your right RUN A MILE if anyone say’s approved Google SEO. Same as if they say “i can guarantee you the first page of Google”
No One can guarantee you that as no one knows what or when the next Google update will be or entail. One thing that i will say is that SEO doesn’t have to be a slow process.
I’m making money off ranking video’s in a matter of day’s on Google. Google seems to LOVE Youtube video’s at the moment, your notice that video can take a front page slot if backlinked correctly

I agree SEO doesn’t have to be a slow process.
What backlinking strategies do you use for your videos?
Andrew
Yeah I have heard about the news. And I prefer to use this one rather than the old one. I guess, it is a win-win situation. Hmm anyway, expanding the Shared endorsements is helpful for both users and the customer / searcher to see if it is a relevant. In addition, it could add an additional magnet as a person sees the information about its views.
It’s easy for you to get great recommendations from your friends, as what Google says. So, they must take the steps that you provide enable them to be recommended.
Thanks for this!
Hi Andrew,
Currently i’m using a mix of blog posts, blog commenting, social bookmarks, retention views and Google authorship.
It works really well as Google loves itself so very rarely penalises itself. It’s not like ranking a website although it is the same princeable.
Stacy
Thanks for coming back and sharing your approach to backlinking. I really appreciate it.
Andrew
