It’s time for another SEO Advice post! Last month, I offered free SEO advice to 21st-century-boy.co.uk. I’m going to continue my SEO Advice series today by helping out another YoungEntrepreneur.com blog reader Kimmoy Matthews, from Teach and Still Grow Rich.

Hi Evan,
I just came across your blog and have read straight through 4 pages so far – it’s good stuff! I don’t know where my website ranks let alone where I rank as far as those requesting your advice (number million and one in line?) LOL So, I’m crossing my fingers and hoping you would help me out. If it speeds up your response time, then you don’t even have to feature it on your blog, I’ll take your advice via email. I’m really just looking for advice.
My site is www.teachandstillgrowrich.com
Thanks a bunch!
Kimmoy
My Recommendations
1) Get Some Links (and some PageRank!)
I originally received an email from Kimmoy back in April about her website. At that time the site did not carry any PageRank. And now seven months later… still no PageRank! Kimmoy you need to get out there and build some links to your site. Google hasn’t even found it yet and until you build those links, you won’t get search engine traffic. Further reading for you: Links To Young Entrepreneur, How I Got 15,937 Links To My Site. This blog post gave you one link – now focus on building a few more!
2) Identify Your Top Keywords
Try to put yourself in your customers’ shoes. What would they type in to end up on a site like yours? Right now you’re title tag reads “Teachers Start a Business Not a Second Job!” Are teachers really typing this in on a regular basis? Use the Google Keyword Tool to find out what people are actually searching for and then start optimizing your website around those keywords.
3) Put Your Blog On Your Domain… And Update It!
I see that you’ve created a blog at http://teachandstillgrowrich.blogspot.com/ which is hosted at Blogger. Blogs are a great way to drive traffic and rank in search engines because Google loves fresh content and you can get picked up by all the various blog search engines. However, the blog isn’t actually hosted on your website! With Blogger you can easily set up publishing rules so that the posts will go to a folder on your site instead of at Blogger. Don’t give away the links to blogger that you’re working to create! And speaking about working… what happened to the blog? It seems to have died out in May. Time to get posting!!
Good luck Kimmoy!
