Update on “SEO – Living the link-love”

Last week, I wrote about using link-love as part of an exercise to improve our blogs’ search engine rankings. I thought I’d go back today and do the same searches to see if it had any impact. It has.

SEO – Living the Link-Love

We did a session on search engine optimisation (SEO) for our blogs in our seminar today. Besides using and highlighting keywords in titles, tags and content (sensibly and intelligibly of course), a key element – of course – is link-love.

To try and demonstrate this (although we’ll probably only see the results of this after a few days, when the googlebots have visited all our blogs), we’re linking to each other. Of course, most of our blogs are really new, so there’s not too much power behind the links at this stage. However, it’s all relative. We did searches before doing the optimisation.
