Search Engine Optimization Ranking Factors

Over at SEOmoz, randfish has posted an in-depth (long!) article on Search Engine Ranking Factors. It’s a massive article broken down into table data representing a lot of factors that impact website search engine rankings. Along with each factor are some nice icons indicating how suspect each factor is – whether the consensus of SEO experts agree that the factor contributes to rankings or not. Due to the subjectivity of the whole SEO industry it’s important to display disclaimer-style indicators like this and never take any theories as fact until you have tested them yourself and experienced results as proof.
Mr randfish didn’t create the list all by himself, he invited 12 other SEO professionals to cast their vote and the result is a reasonably comprehensive list of SEO techniques you can study and manipulate on your own websites. Note that the article is technical so make sure you are up to date with all your SEO abbreviations before reading. Included are some good explanations of each term but you may find yourself overwhelmed if you try to digest it all in one sitting. I suggest perhaps printing it out as a reference or reading it over time and learning the material so it triggers when you are developing your next website.

Yaro, I’ve been subscribing to your RSS feed for a while now, and hadn’t visited your site. You’ve got some amazing stuff here, and I will be spending the next few days reading and digesting it. Great job.
Hi Yaro – this is a fantastic “all-in-one-place” SEO article – one of the best I’ve read. Thanks.
Hey don’t thank me, thank randfish, he did the work!
Hey, it wasn’t just me. There were 13 contributors who made this possible – their help was invaluable.
BTW – Thanks for the link love, Yaro. Good site you’ve got here.
I hang out at SEOChat.com, but I completely missed this article until I found it mentioned here. Nice find and thanks for sharing.
Really Interesting articles. Some of these search engine ranking factors are interesting, but would appreciate if advance topics like “Google Dance”, “Sandbox Effect” are eleborated in those guidelines
