I have finally released my first product! It's called Caveman Simple SEO and it is geared toward new business bloggers with about 4-6 months of experience. If you are looking for a refresher on the basics, please check out the post here.
After FinCon I made a goal to release at least one product a month to start building up some passive income streams. I never thought this would be the first one, but after the original post ran over 2000 words, I knew I had to do something with it.
I would appreciate any support you can give, a tweet, a comment or if you're an Amazon Prime member, you can borrow it for free! and rate ;)
Thanks guys!

LaTisha, nice tips!
Just thought of another question:
What if you change the SEO title/meta title of the post (not the URL) a year and a half later, do you think that will hurt the posts search position? Or does it not really matter.
Example, what if the original title is: The 49ers Are The Worst Team In The NFL to
The 49ers Are The Best Team In The NFL
Does that make any difference?

Gave some social love as well, good tips.
Sam,
if your question is a serious one, then changing title and meta like that would send the post towards bottom. Content and social signals have become most important these days not title, headers, etc. Algo is gaining human like intelligence. You can't fool Google any more with Key word density etc things.
But, I am sure Latisha knows much better..

Hi SB,
I'm not trying to fool Google. I've decided one of my review posts is too harsh now a year later now that they've drastically improved their product.
The 49ers are also a playoff level team now btw.
Don't be too dogmatic. Things change all the time.

Hmm, good question. I think if you just update the title and not the URL you should be fine. For the most part, the search engines just want to make sure that the link essentially leads to the same place it did before and that the link does in fact lead somewhere.
But in your example, that would probably involve changing the content as well to some degree. A better option would be to write a new optimized post and link between the new and old one. That way the new post gets the optimized traffic but also the 'vote' from the older ranked post.

That is what most people believe; but take a look at some of the highest ranked content out there. I still see on-page SEO tactics such as bolded keywords in the footer, keyword stuffed titles & content, and backlink profiles with thousands of links. I agree that search is moving more social but the algorithm is still flawed in that case. The bot still has to rely on what can be read typed in the code and on the page as well as how many links are coming into that page.
Until the algorithm can accurately take social signals into account, highly ranked content will still include stuffed keywords and numerous backlinks.

Thanks for your thoughts LaTisha! I think that makes sense. I plan to do a follow up review post anyway.
Cheers
