It’s time for another SEO Advice post! Last week, I offered free SEO advice to Duzo Design. I’m going to continue my SEO Advice series today by helping out another YoungEntrepreneur.com blog reader, Casual from PUA Lingo.

Hey Evan,

I’m the webmaster of PUA Lingo (http://www.pualingo.com/), a glossary site targeted at the pickup and seduction niche.  We’ve tried to apply all the SEO techniques we’ve come across (from great sites like yours), but would appreciate any advice on anything we might be missing.  Thanks!

My Recommendations

1) 300 Words Minimum

You have done a pretty good job of your on-site optimization. Your title tags are usually descriptive and you have up to date content through your blog. To give yourself the best chance of ranking for your posts I would suggest making sure each one is at least 300 words (500 words is ideal). For example, your page on Green Pick Up Artist (http://www.pualingo.com/2008/12/green-pickup-artist-gpua/) has very little content on it. Now, you rank #1 in Google for Green Pick Up Artist (GPUA) but you are not #1 for GPUA. Adding more content to all the pages will help you rank higher in Google and for more keywords.

2) Get More Links

You have a lot of content but until you get more links it will be difficult to drive much traffic. Right now your homepage stands at a Page Rank of 2 out of 10. Start a link building campaign to get more people pointing towards your site. This could include related PUA websites, popular bloggers who cover the niche, and any media who are doing stories on it. Getting quality links will help leverage all the content you already have and help it rank more prominently.

3) Use Keywords In Your Title

The title of your blog posts usually impact the title tag of your pages and is therefore the most important part of your on-site optimization efforts. In your blog post The Naturalization of Game both the title tag and the H1 tags are The Naturalization of Game. If you want to get posts like these ranked and leverage the hard work you have done to create the article, choose keywords that people are searching for in your post titles. You can use the Google Keyword Tool to find out which keywords are being used the most and how competitive they are.

Good luck Casual!
