Search Engine Optimization Tips - SEO Study

In this study, EBIZ Machine puts its search engine optimization tips into practice and tracks the results. WITHseo.com utilizes web site optimization but WITHOUTseo.com does not.

Project Description
This site along with its companion site www.WITHOUTseo.com were designed to test the web page optimization techniques that EBIZ Machine utilizes to improve web site performance.

In this case, the SEO tips described below have been used in the design and development of WITHseo.com. WITHOUTseo.com, on the other hand, has been designed using development techniques thought to impede website usability and its success in search engine performance. WITHOUTseo.com utilizes JavaScript navigation and frames. Its "Meta Tags" including keywords and page descriptions are left undefined. No attempt has been made to optimize the WITHOUTseo.com web page content or embed keyphrases in site links and URLs.

WITHseo.com, however, has been optimized by EBIZ Machine. For a more complete description of this study as well as the techniques used to improve the performance of WITHseo.com, click Search Engine Optimization Tips - SEO Case Study by EBIZ Machine
