One of the most common SEO techniques is the use of keywords. Yes, keywords are very vital for your site but also bear in mind the law of balance. Poor keyword content is critical to your site\u2019s visibility. Too much keywords or keyword stuffing will not help either. If you keep on inserting all your target keywords everywhere, you are putting your site at risk. Search engines might mark your site as suspicious. Worse, search engines might even ban your site.\u00a0 So, do use keywords; but use it wisely.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

- Flash websites<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Another common SEO mistake is the extreme use of Flash in your website. Yes, they might look good for your website and can potentially attract visitors. However, the embedded texts associated with Flash are virtually unnoticeable or invisible to the search engines. Thus, if spiders and crawlers cannot read it, they cannot index it. In addition, some of the portable devices, like iPads and iPhones, are not compatible with Flash; thus, it cannot be displayed.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Back links are also one of the most important SEO techniques in increasing your site\u2019s traffic. However, you need to be very careful in using back links. It should be counted as one page. Thus, if your link has a slash symbol (\/) at the end, make sure that it has a slash (\/) symbol on other parts of your site. The consequence of not having the same link, even if it is just a slash, is that search engines will count it as a different page.\u00a0 Check the compatibility of your back links.<\/p>\n
