The Update . . .

About a month ago, I mentioned that I had been neglecting this site and it was time to for an update. At the time (9/22), Dohertyassoc.com has a traffic rank of: 3,740,178. Currently, it is 1,969,422, so we’ve moved passed not quite 2.0 million sites traffic wise. Not bad, but still a long way from #1, eh?

I’ve updated the look and feel of the site, and begun blogging more regularly. All good things when it comes to driving traffic. We went through our Google analytics tool (Make Google Happy) to clean up redundant meta tags and errors.

We are still in clean up mode. So, the next two items on the list are to update the blog software (we are going to move over to WordPress for greater flexibility and features) and look for errors using a Check Server Headers Tool.

SEO is not a quick fix (those promising it is are likely using black hat techniques); it is a long term strategy and a way of thinking when it comes to building your site.
