Recommended basic credible SEO on youtube
-
Hello,
I'm teaching a friend SEO and she wants very basic SEO videos on Youtube. I looked for some but there was a lot of incorrect information that some people were giving out. Does any experienced SEOs know of credible, basic SEO videos that the SEOs that make them don't give out backward information. Good quality videos. I will keep looking, but please, if anyone has some gems send them my way.
Thanks.
Bob

Have you considered the ongoing video series by Rand on Moz's Whiteboard Friday's? Up to date and a great format.
The first one is here:Â https://moz.com/blog/one-hour-seo-guide-part-1-seo-strategy
There are links to the others in the series so far at the bottom. (Apart from part 5, which hasn't been linked yet https://moz.com/blog/one-hour-guide-to-seo-technical-seo)

Hi Bob,
Thanks for your question! Do the videos absolutely have to be on YouTube? If not, we have TONS of free educational resources in our SEO Learning Center. You can sort content by category, skill level, and delivery format (including Whiteboard Fridays, webinars, and MozCon videos). Hope that helps!

Your friend can start with ahrefs SEO for a beginner then can watch this one. Just found this playlist is better than some other so-called experts video on basic SEO.  https://youtu.be/dpwqh-dCfkI?list=PLNR9ExBpEoWztu0wD2SBTMcm9Y_s4llH0

What's the best way to handle seasonal SEO?
Hi, I work for a gifting company, and so Christmas is hot on the agenda right now. I was wondering what you would recommend when it comes to gifting categories for keywords such as 'Christmas gifts for Mum'? I have a 'gifts for mum' category for all year round, but to rank for Christmas related keywords I will have to include these keywords on this page as soon as possible and this would make the content on the page seem slightly irrelevant. I do not really want to have separate pages, but is this the only way to rank for this?

Photographer home page seo
I have a question about the best way to optimize a photographer's homepage for SEO. It's a simple answer if you specialize in one or two things but in my experience many beginner (and even seasoned photographers) will shoot whatever they can get their hands on. Perhaps you mainly shoot weddings and engagement sessions but you also shoot newborns from time to time, family photos, high school seniors and generic head shots. Granted the short answer may be to simply suggest that they specialize however coming from the photography world that isn't always feasible. Of course we'd suggest that they should create a page for each specialty to optimize for that specific keyword, but I'm talking mainly about the home page. Dallas Wedding Engagement Family Newborn headshot photographer looks pretty spammy and I'm sure Google won't like that either. In some cases you can definitely group things together, like family, senior portrait and new born could feasibly be grouped into "Dallas family portrait photographer" etc, but in other instances where you shoot everything not so much. So with that being said, in terms of optimizing both the title tag and content on the page (easier to separate out) what would your advice be?

'key word' SEO question
Does having ' Â ' around your keyword/phrase within the content on your website have an effect on SEO for that keyword?Â
Keyword Research | | MeridianGroup
For example, in the copy of my site, we reference 'buy local' instead of buy local. I am trying to optimize for buy local and I am wondering if the apostrophes are getting in the way? Thank you so much! -Sam0 -
What are SEO's using for Keyword Research?
Hey folks, I just wanted to find out what everyone is using for keyword research now that the Google Keyword Tool has been retired. I know there is a form of it in Adwords, but something a little more usable than this. Cheers,

How to best utilize keywords using All in One SEO
Please forgive my noob questions here.  I'm using Wordpress with All in One SEO. I'm launching a new video production company (www.heartwavemedia.com) and have spent the last few months building a website for it in my spare time.  Visually and structurally, it's there but I'm just beginning to tackle SEO.  I've read a fair amount on the subject but I'm unclear on the following: 1.  Regarding the All in One SEO "keywords" field on each page, are more or less keywords better? 2.  Should I be using a long list of broad, industry relevant  keywords that are plugged into every page (where All in One SEO gives you the "keywords" field) or should each page be targeting a more specific set of keywords?  Alternatively, is it appropriate to do that sometimes but not others?  For example should I be casting a wide net with my home page and then get laser precise with subsequent pages? 3.  Is my goal to pick one (or two or three) keywords that my research leads me to believe I could get some traction with and write copy referencing them across my entire site or to spread them around? 4.  Is it absolutely necessary to include keyword rich copy for each page or doe's the "keyword" field address that need?  Are they read the same by SEs or do they complement each other? 5.  On a scale of 1-10, how infuriating are the previous 4 questions? In the event that your head hasn't exploded, I appreciate your forthcoming advice!

Help with creating SEO video for my industry
Hi There, I'm currently producing some SEO videos for a friend of mine who has a video website for the driving instructor industry and I'm going to make some videos for him on basic SEO (overview of Google, finding keywords, content, google places, meta titles / descriptions, urls with domain name in etc, link building, etc etc).99.9% of people in this industry dont know much about website and SEO etc, so dont have tools such as SEOMOZ, wordtracker etc. Therefore I cant use these tools to get people finding the best keyword which are not too competitive for them. Does anyone know if there is a keyword difficulty tool equivilent out there to SEOMOZ which is free, as im having trouble finding one (Google keyword tool doesnt do this). (I will be mentioning doing the 30 day trial etc, but some people will not like giving their credit card details and then cancelling). Thanks a lot. Antony
