Peter,
I ran the tool and got an 87. It did say that my meta description was too long by 18 characters. Not sure if this is a big deal or not but a great tool nonetheless. Thanks for sharing!

@liweng: Meta keywords are viewed as important in some search engines compared to others. So don't ignore it as you want traffic from as many search engines as possible.

Is meta keywords still important for SEO? I've only put a meta description up, and thought that meta keywords weren't relevant any more. Is that correct?

Peter.. in regards to stumble traffic I have noticed that it is great for short term gains but not long term benefits.

I can receive anywhere from 500 to 1000+ hits from stumble but after a few days the visits decrease. That is why I prefer digg. Less traffic.. but I feel as though the traffic is more beneficial for my sites.

@Peter Heck, never thought about it. Had a quick look at today's stats and the majority is predominantly from Google.

@Domain Structure: Hi Brian, I do get some traffic from social bookmarking sites but I noticed that for StumbleUpon I get more but only when others stumbled it and depending on how good the post title is. In my opinion I think such traffic is short term.

Peter

Hey Peter.. how has the social bookmarking worked for you?

@Domain Structure: Hi Brian, I too don't do article submission anymore. I do social book marking mostly Onlywire, Socialmatic, Propeller, forum posting, and post in my blog.

@Sire: Sire what would you say your main source of traffic comes from, just curious.

Same here. If I write something I either post it in my blog, on Helium, one of my forums or in the article section of my games site.

@Domain Structure: Hi Brian, 100 new links a day that's really remarkable. Do you do article directories, although one got to careful of content duplication when doing so. What about social bookmarking.

Peter
Domain Structure

Peter I get links from everywhere.. People who steal my RSS feeds.. Blog Commenting... Forum Posting.. Directory submissions.

If I am not writing a new article I will try and increase my incoming links to at least 100 new ones a day.

Hey Brian,

That's wonderful news and at the rate you are progressing you are going to beat Yan (sorry Yan if you are reading this) who got PR3 in 3 months. What's the secret of your success, if I may ask. I'm particularly interested to know where your links growth is coming from.

@about capiz blog : Hi, This tool is perfectly safe. You're not joining anything, but just checking your rank for your website by putting your blog or website url. It then generates a report showing you very useful information about your site. You then use the report to improve on your site to improve your SEO. Try it.

hello, I'm afraid to try this because I am literally new to SEO stuff even if I joined in some of the popular SEO contests. Is this tool safe to use?

Sire,

Well if you have many images like me and wish to keep it is good to keep the image size as low as possible for new additions. 2 weeks ago my blog''s right side bar took 2 minutes to load and after reducing some images and especially unwanted widgets, got the blog loading up normally again.

Peter
Sire

Thanks for the link, I did go to that site and reduced my header by 50%! The reduction in quality is noticeable but I can live with it. As for the page loading quicker, well to tell you the truth, I couldn't really tell the difference.
admin

Hi Sire,

You can actually use an image optimizer to reduce the image size by as much as 90% (in bytes) - it lets you make your choice of how much you want reduced. The link is in my post here:
10 Simple Tips to Fast Loading Website and Home Business Blog

Peter

I actually got the same reply for all my blogs and it is one that I plan to ignore as the images are necessary to the blogs functionality. The only problem with the images are that it slows the loading time of the page, but unless you are on dial-up I think it is barely noticeable.

Hi Sire,

Thanks for dropping by. Yes I think it's a very useful tool to find out quickly your SEO health state of your blog or site. Well my report also tells me I have too many images in my blog so it's something I need to work on soon. Hope to see you again soon.

Hi, that was an interesting experience. I got a website grade of 70 and I thought that it was pretty good for a blog that is less than a month old. A couple of my other blogs got a grade of 92 and 90

The thing with this site is that not only does it give you a grade but it also explains why thereby giving you the information to improve your blog. A truly great find. :D
