First of all, I can hear you asking what exactly is fiverr? In a nutshell, it's a site that will sell you a particular service for an insanely low $5 per gig (a gig is a single purchase). Whether you're a buyer or a seller, it can be a quick and easy way to buy or sell a great service. A great example is when we created SEOIpsum. The caric...
There are a few common mistakes that people new to SEO often make. Being relatively new to search engine optimisation myself, I try to avoid commenting on these issues unless I'm fully confident about the advice I'm giving. This is the case with the information about Google's index that I recently began to understand, so I thought I'd j...
The past couple of blogs that I have written on the subject of website performance have focused on the principles behind page speed optimisation and also, how the 'cache' needs to be factored into any site performance updates you make. In this blog however, I'd like to focus a bit more on the actual best practices for improving page response time....
Most of my SEO clients already have an existing site. It is my job to take what I am given and do my very best to ensure that it starts ranking well for the chosen keywords. Normally this would entail at the very least, changing Metas, adding some relevant content and keyword placement. The problem is, by adding content and making small changes it...
Twitter is the best tool you'll find to get the latest news and updates in the SEO world, so I decided to put a list together of the best SEO's in the business (in my opinion). Below is the rather large list with each accounts description, total tweets and followers, so please feel free to add as many as you want. So without further ado (and in a...
Do you recognise URL's like this? http://blog.website.com http://somewebpage.blog.com These are sub-domain pages which are external to a website. I recently found out that quite a few of my clients have pages (blogs especially) which have these kind of URL's for example when creating a blogspot blog you select a name for it which is then ended w...
Recently I published a blog post about the key skills an individual needs work in search engine optimisation. With the increasing expansion of the SEO industry and the opportunity for employment that is made available by this growth, I thought it might be worthwhile developing this series of blogs by writing about the skills needed to b...
I'm pretty sure that nearly every pun related to Google's Panda algorithm update has been made in numerous search engine optimisation blogs scattered across the web. Thankfully, I won't even attempt to add to that woeful collection, but instead I'll focus on offering some advice on reviving websites that have been negatively impacted by...
Video search engine optimisation is still a practice in relative infancy. However, with the increasing availability and access to high-speed internet connections with high-bandwidth there is potential to expand content creation and sharing through another medium. A range of content can contribute to a successful SEO campaign, but vid...
First of all, it is probably prudent to establish the fact that Meta tags are unfortunately not going to guarantee 100% certifiable search engine optimisation success. In fact, with the exception of the title tag, Meta tags are a very weak signal in terms of directly influencing the SERPs. The main value that can be garnered from the...
The title tag is a piece of HTML code that essentially acts as, well, the title - indicating what the website is about to the search engines and users. In terms of keyword placement, the title tag is one of the most important signals that the search engines use to determine the relevance of a website. For the SEO Consult blog, the ta...
I am firmly of the opinion that there are too many forms in modern life. In a world where bureaucracy is rife there seems to be no escaping the mind crushing tedium of filling out line after line after line of information that is probably already stored in numerous locations already. So, when presented with a form on a website, I am...

There is a lot of coverage of this topic across the search engine optimisation blogging and forum world, and I mean a lot. Most blogs have at least three or four entries dedicated to this particular issue. So, it is with this in mind that I intend to write this fool proof guide to the key differences between the 301 Redirect...
Page speed has recently become a more relevant factor in the search algorithms. This has been evidenced by Google's production of an online performance analysis tool that informs you how much faster a page could be. It also generates a list of suggestions that could be used to improve the load speed of your site. If you do c...
