Hedir Review : content/link mesh

Brett · Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2006 1:42 pm Post subject: content/link mesh

i'm fairly new to the SEO industry, and it seems a very elite market, and answers are hard to find.

the company i work for still does content writing for keywords, placed as links at the bottom of sites that link to an HTML page of 800 to a 1000 words, with the keyword appearing between 8-10 times.

Upon joining this community, helped learning, but now it seems no one else follows the same strategy?????
Does this actually work with search engines? or is it simply the on page content and keywords?

any input? Question

Are you talking about doorway pages?

If so, they generally don't anymore. Usually they pick up non-competitive keyword traffic (e.g. "miss splelingz") but they don't get much in the way of real, targeted traffic simply because of off-the-page factors (inbound links, etc.)

Quite often, the doorway page implementation leads to a site getting banned as well. Big G in particular has taken something of an aggressive stance that way lately.

Wise words, AjiNIMC. Wink

I'm a relative newcomer to SEO, myself. The one thing I have learned is anyone who knows how SEO works doesn't know how SEO works. Razz

Are you talking about doorway pages or keyword dilution ?

Keyword appearing 23 times within an article is not it a clear evidence of keyword dilution? If not then what should be the saturation point?
