Search Engine Optimization Tips For Contestants
- Understand the difference of this contest with other SEO contests. This SEO contest poses a relatively higher difficulty and challenge.
- Due to the entry page being the profile page, you have less control on the on-page optimization. Be creative.
- Some ways to build content for the profile pages are: status updates, posting articles, and commenting on blog posts.
- You can post articles with the search term within Evoire.com or in other sites. Take note that the search term is already a very natural word and it should be quite easy to make the links to be sensible and relevant within articles. Please do not stuff your articles with the search terms. Specifically in Evoire.com, articles that use the search term insensibly will not be approved.
- As a profile page, there is also less avenue for you to build your inbound link. Contrast this with a blog post where there is almost limitless number of social bookmarking sites that you can utilize to build link. Again, you need to be creative and think outside the box.
- Black hat techniques such as spamming, hidden text, page cloaking, keyword stuffing, etc are strictly not allowed.
