Thread: SE"OD" Another SEO question. This time about Alexa

I know this is a run-into-the-ground topic and believe me, I checked Bhuz for an answer before posting this.

My eyeballs are going to explode if I read any more SEO tip books/websites. Since the changes I make aren't immediate (takes 3ish months to show difference in Google rankings), my normal scientific method of changing one thing at a time to see what works will take me 10 years to figure it out.

I don't have that kind of time so now I am starting to consider hiring help. Small local web marketing team or internet site audits? I don't pull in huge figures in dance income (sure would like to), but I know it takes money/work to make money.


Has anyone used the Alexa Site Audit? Is it worth the $200?

I am sending you a PM.

Have you started link building yet? What is the keyword you want to rank for?

Yes I have been busy adding to dance/party directories, swapping links with fellow dancers about to start a blog...

Looking to crack "sacramento belly dancer" or some version of that. I just found out today (after posting this thread) that I crawled to the bottom of page 1 from the depths of page 5 for Google! Big victory for me!

That's good.

I had a quick look at your site. On page optimisation looks ok. Just need more links.

Also, sign up to Google Places and add your business address so your website shows up in google maps when they search "sacramento belly dancer".

Thanks for checking out my site :) I read somewhere that more than 60 links per page is not good? Because of this, I split my "dancer links" to a separate page from the "directory links". Is that not necessary?


I am signed up with Google Places, but listed in Davis (very small town 20 min south of Sacramento). I am thinking to also list somewhere in Sacramento with one of the restaurant addresses where I regularly perform (with permission of course!).
