 I have a google + account not sure if this helps or not though

I have a free online listing with yell.com which has photos and website link

I live in county durham and there is a icounty durham website for local businesses and i can put in key words on my listing such as window cleaning and gutter cleaning and this helps my business come up in google searches .

I am at the top of google and also further down in two seperate links . which can redirect to my website.  But their is very few windys with websites near me . Mike

It all comes down to what you're trying to become top for.

If it's "window cleaning" then you're going to have a bad time, but if it's "window cleaning bedford" you'll have a better time.

I just did a DIY website and forgot about it.  About a year later it was top of the non paid for ratings and it's still there.

I don't know how I did it, but it was easy.

However, one thing I'm not certain of is if it would appear top to someone else; Google selects stuff based on your interweb useage; so what I may get top of the rankings may not be what someone else gets.

I'll have a check on Wor Little Un's Ipod when she gets home and shows me how to use it.

I'm not sure if Wor Lass is up for it right now.  She's currently hoovering.  Do you think I should try it on with her ?

(How do I empty my cache?  ;D)

Not necessarily the case.

If I'm correct, I think it also takes your location into account.

I did a course on SEO, and it was mentioned. Not sure how much persuasion it has on SEO.

I put a video up on our Facebook the other day regarding changes to SEO! You should check it out!

I'll summarize that for you Tom in a few words.

Google is looking for authentic content.

What do you mean by 'authentic content' exactly?

Instead of having:

window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)
window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)
window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)   window cleaning (place)

at the bottom of each page, just make sure your content and tags contain the things you want to be optimizing for.

If you do that above, then you will soon be punished by Google, what worked well in the past, will now destroy anything you do.

Have no ridiculous back links to things that aren't relevant.

Ensure your text reads correctly, and not as if a robot has written it.
