Doing SEO for site that publishes articles everyday?
-
Hi, I was wondering on the best way to do SEO for a site that publishes articles daily. In other words, I add a new url to my site daily.
How should I ensure that the new pages are optimized?
Do I need to submit each new site to search engines?
Any tips?

No, you don't need to submit each one to the search engines but, as CMC-SD mentioned, if you plus one them on Google plus they will get indexed faster.
I also agree with his advice on title tags and meta descriptions as well as the url title. Other things to do are to make sure that the content is grammatically correct and that your keywords don't show up too often. If a keyword appears as more than 4 or 5% of the text the search engines don't like it.
Other than that, use your social media networks to get the links out there and keep up the good work!

No, you do not need to submit anything anywhere.
If some website somewhere links to your website, Google will find it and index it. I've heard that you can get URLs indexed very quickly if you +1 them on Google+ but I haven't tried that.
I'm assuming your site uses a Content Management System like Wordpress, Joomla!, something like that? If so, get one of the many SEO plugins. This will allow you to easily optimize your title tags and meta-descriptions while you're publishing the article.
Also, make sure your CMS is set up to make nice-looking URLs like http://www.mysite.com/article-about-cool-thing.html, not http://www.mysite.com/page123.html. Most CMSes will automatically generate a decent URL based on your title, but you may want to tweak it if it's absurdly long.

Google Indexing of Site Map
We recently launched a new site - on June 4th we submitted our site map to google and almost instantly had all 25,000 URL's crawled (yay!). On June 18th, we made some updates to the title & description tags for the majority of pages on our site and added new content to our home page so we submitted a new sitemap. So far the results have been underwhelming and google has indexed a very low number of the updated pages. As a result, only a handful of the new titles and descriptions are showing up on the SERP pages. Any ideas as to why this might be? What are the tricks to having google re-index all of the URLs in a sitemap?

Site-wide Links
Hey y'all, I know this question has been asked many times before but I wanted to see what your stance was on this particular case. The organisation I work for is a group of 12 companies - each with its own website. On some of the sites we have a link to the other sites within the group on every single page of that site. Our organic search traffic has dropped a bit but not significantly and we haven't received any manual penalties from Google. It's also worth mentioning that the referral traffic for these sites from the other sites I control is quite good and the bounce rate is extremely low. If you were in my shoes would you remove the links, put a nofollow tag on the links or leave the links as they are? Thanks guys 🙂
