Search-Friendly Design Patterns For Web Developers
Search engine optimization (SEO) isn’t a marketing gimmick, spammy scheme, or destroyer of web usability. It’s a fundamental building block of effective infrastructure design that ensures web applications can thrive in an online environment in which potential customers turn to search first. It also can dramatically improve site usability and visitor happiness.
Watch this space for design patterns, code snippets, case studies, and implementation techniques for elegant code that both ensures potential customers can find your site online as well as provides them a compelling experience once they arrive.

The name is fantastic. I look forward to watching this new project grow.
Thanks for the fantastic presentation.
The presentations are ok, i like the way you mixed ‘em up but i think it would have helped a lot if you could have stuffed a bit more content… they tend to be a bit too short.
Thanks for posting this set of checklists – its good to have something like this to remember to go through every time. I think sometimes this stuff gets so "typical" that we should all have a checklist to make sure we don’t overlook one of the them.
Thanks for importable presentation and the place of checklist here.
This presentation is good. you have covered good point in this the topic.
Hi Vanessa,
I just wanted to say thanks for the terrific presentation. I found the slides some time ago at SlideShare, but did not really have the time to finish watching them all. Finally I found the time to go through the entire presentation and was really good. I like the diagrams and the case studies the most.
Just one quick request. It will be nice if in the future you can add a bit more information about your case studies. I’m sure your perspective will be interesting and refreshing.
Great job!

Hi Venessa,
Once again great stuff. Have been thinking a bit lately about ASP.NET and CMS systems – what is your take on that, do they both bring about to many problems seen with the SEO glasses on, or are there no problems implementing them both on say 1.000+ page sites or even smaller?
In my own experience with CMS systems, then yes, you can do SEO on them, but it is an up-hill struggle all the way.
Interesting I guess its about finding a happy medium between the users and search engines needs. Nice presentations.

A great presentation..Thanks for this article..You can get important topic that could help us a lot.
thanks you
I wish I could get this through the average persons head. Just making things search engine firendly does not mean sacrafice in other areas. But, there are different designs needed for different marketing systems.
SEO is a very important role with design, you would be so surprised as to how many actual designers out there think they can design for web, it’s extremely frustrating as a web development company owner. We have tried to work with clients ’3rd party designers’ its always a mess. I do not recommend it , anyhow this is powerful insight and advice thinks for the info on the patterns, I suggest everyone should read it!

SEO is an acronym for "search engine optimization" or "search engine optimizer." Deciding to hire an SEO is a big decision that can potentially improve your site and save time, but you can also risk damage to your site and reputation. Make sure to research the potential advantages as well as the damage that an irresponsible SEO can do to your site. Many SEOs and other agencies and consultants provide useful services for website owners, including:
* Review of your site content or structure
* Technical advice on website development: for example, hosting, redirects, error pages, use of JavaScript
* Content development
* Management of online business development campaigns
* Keyword research
* SEO training
* Expertise in specific markets and geographies.
As an Internet marketing strategy, SEO considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.

Nice info. I like the post.
Great info – thanks for sharing it with us. We don’t all have fortunes to spend on SEO work. Every little helps!
The acronym "SEO" can also refer to "search engine optimizers," a term adopted by an industry of consultants who carry out optimization projects on behalf of clients, and by employees who perform SEO services in-house. Search engine optimizers may offer SEO as a stand-alone service or as a part of a broader marketing campaign. Because effective SEO may require changes to the HTML source code of a site, SEO tactics may be incorporated into web site development and design.
Fantastic, the resource information that you have shared is great. It will be a great help to me.

Another class of techniques, known as black hat SEO or Spamdexing, use methods such as link farms and keyword stuffing that degrade both the relevance of search results and the user-experience of search engines. Search engines look for sites that employ these techniques in order to remove them from their indices.

I’ve noticed over the last 6 months Google has been really cracked down on duplicate content. From what I’ve seen even 20% duplicate content will get a page pushed out of the main index.
Interesting I guess its about finding a happy medium between the users and search engines needs. Nice presentations.
By 1997 search engines recognized that webmasters were making efforts to rank well in their search engines, and that some webmasters were even manipulating their rankings in search results by stuffing pages with excessive or irrelevant keywords. Early search engines, such as Infoseek, adjusted their algorithms in an effort to prevent webmasters from manipulating rankings.
SEO considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.
Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via "natural" ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. Typically, the higher a site’s "page rank" (i.e, the earlier it comes in the search results list), the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO can also target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines.
Some fantastic information, thanks for sharing. Will definitely be back more often….

Hi Vanessa
Just found Jane and Robot and love it!
Added to RSS and looking forward to reading more…
Thanks for the relevant posts. I wish you would do a comment about how to use the nofollow tag – as well as the external no follow tag.
Nofollow tags were designed only by Google right? Does Yahoo take account nofollow tags or not?
Thanks for the informative post..

Real SEO is like free advertising – it just takes up lots of time!
Thanks for these presentations. I like the way you’ve made them. Very concise and directed SEO tips. And question: When you mention that only one H1 H2 or H3 tag is per page, do you mean that google only indexes a single H1 tag on the page, and drops any other H1 tag use?
Thanks!
