I believe some people above are referring to image optimization for web as it pertains to size and speed efficiency and others are referring to image optimization for SEO purposes. SEO purposes: - Use alt tags - name file with descriptive keywords - submit image to sites like flickr, picasa...

I would search for articles on how to hire an SEO expert. There are a lot of individuals out there who claim to know SEO and really know very little more than you do. Do your research. Additionally, if your site is very young (less than a year) you may want to do things yourself for awhile...

Do you want just the number of outbound links a site has or a listing of all the sites a particular site is linking to?

The analytics package and their webmaster tools really resonate with me.

You might look into Gzip compression for your website. It's not compatible with all browsers - only newer ones but it can help reduce page load times by compressing the files as request to the server are made. For your image I would make it the exact size you need for your site - then choose...

What about the validation tool in dreamweaver? Does it work to the extent it should?

What about the validator in dreamweaver?

CMS is definitely the way to go but I disagree with StudioMelbourne on the choice of CMS but maybe I'm biased. I prefer Expression Engine - the ability to create a CMS for any design just seems more intuitive to me using Expression Engine. Again, that's just an opinion though. I think that...

i tend to try and follow a 4-7% density but as you mentioned it's really up for debate. i was really curious of how important the SEO's here would categorize keyword density - i.e. extremely important, somewhat important, of little importance, no importance. mostly, just curious what others...

alfredwinston, i'm not sure if you were responding to me or not but if you were i'm not asking how to perform submissions and what they are. i'm asking how you can make an intelligent submission on a blog or forum - given you (or your company) are not experts in your client's field. seems...

I would also assume that since many companies target forums to find new clients you could in essence be allowing your competitors an opportunity to poach your clients. Just a thought.

When you guys are doing link-building for a client, and let's say you are going to use forums or blog comments for some of those links, how do you write the forum post or blog comments without having intimate knowledge of the specific industry? I'm thinking about a client who is in a fairly...

How much attention do you guys pay to keyword density?

I work from home (freelancer) and prefer to use my desktop - the laptop screen is just to small for me. I work on an iMac and primarily use Adobe products for production. Sometimes I will collaborate with other freelancers, and we'll meet at their house/office. I usually bring my laptop but...

This isn't the best tool but in the lack of other options it will do the job - http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/index.php. It gives a screen cap of the upper portion of the page in different versions of IE. Someone else may be able to provide a better tool. Thanks.

this sounds a lot like frame targeting. just my opinion though.

have either of you copyrighted the site - legally I mean. lots of people put a copyright symbol on their site but few actually go thru the process of copyrighting the site. if not you could possibly go that route. maybe research a sample cease and desist letter that sounds formal and send it...

just in case you need some color combinations - http://www.colorcombos.com/. it's a pretty good site and will let you choose a main color and provide you with combinations that work well together. hope this helps. thanks.

lolkaykay, some of your images are pretty rasterized - you may want to redraw them in illustrator or purchase some higher quality stockart. also, some of the spacing and alignment seems off - the header title for the page doesn't align with the body copy container and then you have some...

inevitably, your business name will end up on a list with your competitors - most of these list are sorted alphabetically. It's not a bad idea to keep that in mind but I agree with lou that if you can name your business with SEO in mind you'll be that much further ahead.
