Another fascinating Sunday evening with Mack Collier and #Blogchat has come and gone leaving us with more great advice on fine tuning the business of blogging. Lee Odden, founder of Top Rank Online Marketing, hosted last night's session on search engine optimization (SEO). Odden's blog, Online Marketing Blog, appears in Technorati's top 50 favorite blogs and holds other top rankings and nominations as noted by Advertising Age, Onalytica, Marketing Sherpa and others.
The top five tips Odden tweeted on how to improve SEO for blogs were:
1. Research keywords and make a glossary. http://bit.ly/BhD3G #blogchat

3. Get links from other relevant sites! #blogchat
