“Finding the middle ground between artistic design and functionality is the best way to approach SEO developmet”

That’s a great point!

With Google’s now capable Flash crawling algo had answered some concerns here, but still there’s long way to go

Good article and I totally agree with your point about using Flash for designing websites, but can you give any evidence of Javascript having a negative effect on SEO?

Frankly, I haven’t seen any difference with or without JavaScript. If it is poorly written and doesn’t allow search engines to crawl the text on the website then it’s another matter, but generally almost all websites use JavaScript to some extent.

Hi Sandie, thanks for the post. I’ve been looking at our sourcing web designers from India, just to increase income generating methods as its cheaper. How do you recommend finding reliable and qualified web designers to fulfil needs of designing a website sufficiently, when anyone can put a landing page up and claim to design sites?

More directed to the post, is simplicity always best for SEO? Can it be beaten?

I’ve been running websites for 5 years now, and have tried numerous developers and seo professionals.

Sadly I’ve found that unless you’re planning to pay absolute top dollar, it’s invariably better to just learn yourself and go it alone.

Of course, if you have the money to spend, get the best you can afford, but failing that, don’t expect anyone to love, or understand, your business like you do.
It just won’t happen.

Great article, content is definitely king when it comes to SEO. Iv been in the internet marketing industry for a while now and from my experience you must have good content. Also Google are coming down hard on us with all the updates now, so you should always be careful when it comes to your backlink strategy.

Nice post

‘over-optimizing a website is just as worse, maybe in more than an under optimized one’

Yikes!

An informative piece – but never underestimate the importance of a good editor…
