          Robots.txt file is file on your site that is meant to give instructions as to where search engine spiders may and may not go. It is kind of Permission systems which means you can not force bad bots to listen to it. Bad bots are the bots that go all over your website but don't offer you any value at all.

          It helps to ensure that your site gets spidered and indexed properly. That means the pages you want to be found, can be found and the pages you want hidden will remain hidden.

            Just expanding on this:

            Some bad bots don't care what you tell them to do. They'll ignore the instructions and crawl whatever they please.

      (H1-H5) Header tags are an effective way to communicate to the search engines and readers what a page is about. They convey the importance of the text inside of the header tag. Often times, the header tags are not in the proper order. This is how a header tag would appear in the page.

      H1 - Theme of the Page
      H2 - Main Sub Section
      H3 - Sub Section

      The h1 header tag is the largest font. The h2 tag is smaller than h1 tag but larger than h3 tag and so on to <h6>. However, the font size of each header tag can be easily adjusted with css making it possible for all headers to appear the same size:


      For example:


      • <h1> H1 Header Tag <h1>
      • <h2> H2 Header Tag <h2>
      • <h3> H3 Header Tag <h3>
      • <h4> H4 Header Tag <h4>
      • <h5> H5 Header Tag <h5>
      • <h6> H6 Header Tag <h6>

      Nice List, BUT... (There's always a but )

      You forgot the most important and effective part of optimizing a website for top rankings in Google and doing this in most cases will guarantee you high rankings.
      What is it? "Create top quality, unique and highly relevant content and make sure you content stays fresh, that is keep it updated and adding new content at least every 3 days"

      Cheers

        Yes you are right Content is also important factor in SEO. We should always need to update fresh content. But i would say do not update content every time. Updating content every time it can be also harmful your site.

      Article Submission is not difficult. Remember that always write great article with fresh and unique content. If you are not good writer than you give it to any of the nice content writer to write your article then post it.

    Aswellas that I know the social network stes are being indexed in google I did a search for my keyword and generally find 15 or so results in the first 5 pages but not of them generate a baclink although my url is in my anchor text. Are most of the social network sites no follow if not all of them. Article submission sites as well although articlebase article slash and ezine articles and a lot more post my conent it is not generating one back link, and whn auto bloggers publish my content like fashioninus.com they generally rank first page instantly with no page links, although I do get a backlink from there auto blogging.
