What should we include in the updated developers SEO cheat sheet?
-
Hey folks,
Do you all remember the developer's SEO cheat sheet? It's super awesome. But it's also a little old.
What super awesome ideas do you have for the updated version?
What should we include? What should we take out?
Any developers around - what SEO knowledge would you most like to see in a cheat sheet?
Thanks!

How about Rich Snippets?

Under Important SEO HTML Tags
I've seen posts about H1, H2, H3 not being of any SEO value... is this true? If so, update it, or add something like "see heading tags". (heading tags are very important even if not for seo).
- Title Tag
- Meta Description
- No Meta Keywords
- H1, H2, H3 ?
- keyword
- keyword
- rel canonical
301 Redirect : .htaccess file or hosting control panel
hope that help!
Kelly

Are we going to see this anytime soon?
-
Way late to this party, but I'd love to see this doc updated.
-
Is this going to be updated any time soon?
-
Maybe add things you can do to improve performance?
-
Popular/most commonly used Microformats!
-
Are we ever going to see the updated version released?
-
I'd love to see ecommerce addressed and how to configure sites & optimize product listings to ensure good SEO visibility.
-
Anything you have on using SharePoint 2007 or 2010 would be profoundly appreciated!
-
While brainstorming a re-write, some pointers on http://schema.org/ optimization would be great!

Hi Tom, any thoughts to including links to information about SEO or SEO plug-ins for common CMS platforms (e.g., Wordpress, Joomla, Drupal, Umbraco)? Given the number of developers coding for specific CMS platforms, it might be worthwhile to guide them on how to make them better from an SEO perspective.
-
What to test (i.e. check canonical, redirects, etc.) prior to launch.
-
Have to agree with Gianluca as many people have to do SEO on sites that are on Windows platforms that the businesses involved won't move away from for non-SEO reasons.
-
This is a good idea - the code needed to embed a twitter/facebook widget would be useful as this is a common SEO task.
-
How about some pointers on Open Graph metadata? Not strictly SEO...yet...
-
This is a great point - I'd love to include some HTML5 goodness in there.
-
Perhaps the right setting of doctype, html lang, charset etc...
-
Not sure how you'd cover this in cheat sheet form - but somethign on using JavaScript/AJAX for faceted navigation would be helpful.
-
Equally - HTML5 is an interesting angle to explore as to what offers the best advantages - Richard B has done some good posts on looking at that.
-
Hi Tom ,
- Front
- Amount of Links (inaccurate)
- rel=canonical
- add RedirectMatch 301
- ISAPI Rewrites
- Back
- BingBot
- Robots.txt Syntax (adding the wild card and example)
- xml-sitemaps (note thats up to 500 pages only)
And Microformats?
-
Actually I feel the absence of everything relates to Windows platforms (IIS, Isapi Rewrite)
-
How about a sysadmin or a server admin cheat sheet?
All those settings that they never know about...

Developing A Survey To Assist With SEO Plan
Hello everyone, I searched through the forums to see if this has come up but it appears that it has not. I am in the process of developing an SEO plan for a client as part of an educational research project. As part of general research, we are planning on sending out a survey/questionnaire to all of the client's contacts in order to help us develop the SEO plan. Obviously a big emphasis would be placed on keywords (i.e. what keywords would you use if you were looking for ______) but there are other areas to look at as well. So, I would greatly appreciate any suggestions regarding the types of questions to ask in a SEO research project like this. What would you ask? What would you be interested in? If clarification is needed, please let me know.

Difficult Boss: Does anyone know of a SEO quick reference?
I am dealing with a boss who does not understand all the aspects of SEO and its value. He thinks if I just plaster keywords on a page, we'll rank. He thinks I'm wasting my time blogging, link-building, ect. I'm wondering if anyone knows of an article or blog post that has been published that BRIEFLY explains the value of these things. What I am looking for is NOT an article about the basics of SEO. I don't need something that is written for a beginner SEO just starting out who wants to learn how to do it. I need something that is written for a business owner who isn't technically-minded, so he can understand why and how each aspects helps rankings. Does any such reference exist?

Website Development Company Needed
Hey everyone, I am doing some consulting work for a travel company. They are redesigning their web site from scratch. The web site is highly database driven. I am looking to hire a company that has a very good combination of skills in programming(.NET or C+), website design, and SEO. In looking for a company to work with on this, a lot of companies claim they know SEO and web site design, but it is not as easy to find a company that is also highly proficient in programming. If any of you know of a great website directory for this, or even a company or two you recommend, I would greatly appreciate any of your advice. Thanks! Jeff Ferraro
