In many ways the world of SEO has shifted with all of the upheaval caused by the Panda updates and the new demands of the “Google Freshness” update. But even as many things change other things remain the same. An emphasis on the basic principles of SEO provides a solid foundation over time.

Let’s take a look at our five SEO power tips that will help your website attract a ton of organic search engine traffic in 2012:

1. Actually create your own SEO strategy
Do you have a solid SEO strategy in place that takes into consideration the specifics of your business, industry and niche? Does your plan involve some kind of schedule for the many tasks that need to be completed in order to implement it? It would benefit you greatly to set aside some time and map out a basic SEO strategy for your websites including a list of weekly and monthly tasks.

2. Create a content development strategy
One of the biggest takeaways from the Google Panda updates of last year was the increasing emphasis on the relevance, quality and freshness of the content for your websites. So, even if you’re not going to be the one who will actually be creating the content that you post on your sites, you’ve got to get a handle on what kinds of content you’ll be using, how often you will be posting it, and who will be creating it. Between writing fresh articles, creating videos, writing and submitting press releases, posting in forums and recording audio programs, content creation is a huge part of an information marketing business. Having a strategy will help you to be more efficient and consistent when it comes to creating enough fresh content to keep both the search engines and your audience happy.

3. Use keyword research tools
Do you still do your keyword research by hand? Now is the time to really start putting a lot more emphasis on keyword research. Try out the various keyword research tools and don’t be squeamish about investing in a solid keyword research tool. Finding the right long tail keyword phrases to target can make all of the difference to your SEO strategy.

4. Use WordPress
It’s not just that I’m biased because I happen to love WordPress, but I recommend it because it’s got so many SEO features already built in. You can also easily boost the SEO factor of your WordPress blog by adding some free plugins. It’s been proven that search engines love blogs, so why wouldn’t you add one to your static website?

5. Focus on acquiring quality backlinks
Did you catch the emphasis on the word quality when it comes to back links? You want to acquire as many high pr, relevant back links as possible in order to help boost your site’s page rank. This will take either a nice chunk of your time, or you will have to choose a paid backlinking service depending on your budget.

So, there are five tips to get you started. Map out your plan and then work your plan consistently and you will start to see results.

Using smart SEO strategies is one way to get lots of traffic to your websites. Visit http://mcreasite.com/blog today where you will discover many more tips for growing your online business.
