I know the first SEO Lab was promised awhile back, but with all the other things I have going, including the new design of the site and just getting the site up to par, I have been very busy. While writing SEO Lab #1, I decided it would be a better idea to give some basic instructions first, and information on what should be expected from these SEO Lab posts before taking a dive into things. This lab post will be used as a primer to give a basic understanding of the SEO Labs:
1) Give a brief overview of the SEO Lab concept
2) How all future labs will be structured
3) How readers can make the most out of these labs
1) Brief Overview of the SEO Lab Concept
I came up with the idea of setting up an SEO Lab section on the blog to provide our readers with valuable, concrete evidence about how the search engines and their algorithms work through actual real world tests. There is so much misinformation on the web it becomes extremely difficult to separate false SEO information from SEO fact. Like I mentioned in my first SEO Lab post, I have been doing small tests in the past to learn how the search engines work, so I decided why not just take it to a much larger scale by documenting my research and sharing the results with other people. So this is the beginning of the idea you see here.
The SEO Labs are meant to be in chronological order so the most simplistic algorithm tests are completed first. The higher the SEO Lab numbers go the more difficult/advanced the algorithm tests become, therefore it is suggested that all visitors interested in the SEO Labs read the labs from the very beginning first, and then follow through to the present. This will provide a more complete, understandable picture of the whole process.
2) Structure of SEO Labs
All future SEO Labs will have the following structure:
-Opening Remarks
-Testing Information
-Questions
-Closing Remarks
-Results
3) How Readers Can Make the Most Out Of The SEO Labs
An open dialogue is probably the most important factor I want to accomplish through these SEO Labs. I do not claim to be the all-knowing, end all and be all source for SEO. I am only human and know I too can make mistakes (even though it’s hard to believe), so if readers notice any inconsistencies or errors in the SEO Lab posts by all means bring them to my attention and the readers attention by posting a comment.
In addition, if you have a question which is similar or relates too an SEO Lab which you would like answered I more than welcome you to post a comment with your question, and if your question is relevant I will add it to the SEO Lab.
Finally, again I suggest that new readers to the SEO Lab read all posts chronologically from beginning to present as each lab builds upon all previous labs.
