We are all trying to use the tricks we learn to rank as high as possible in Google. But there may be some things that are actually wasting our time. In fact, we may even be doing these time wasters wrong to begin with.

I know there has been a lot of attention on things like meta keywords, meta tags and alt text for your images. But do they really help?

Here is a great article from Neil Patel reminding us of the elements of SEO that may not be improving your site rank.

Jim, great post. People tend to pay attention to things of no meaning. Maybe they should take notes from Neal Patel.



THANK YOU for this info, your a ledge.
Best regards,
Jeff.

This is a terrific article but I am left wondering if I will ever know enough to have a working profitable site.

Now that is something we should all be thinking about.

I so love Neil Patel. He's awesome. Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely!

I'm an avid follower of Mr. Patel; he is an authority in every aspect!

Some good things to think about!

I wondered about these when I first started here,but then other folk told me they did not matter that much because the SEO picks up on this.Suffice to say I never put them in.

I think the thing that was most helpful is his take on Alt Tags for images.

Thanks for the heads up. Very useful information and a help to us all.

You are welcome, I hope it is helpful.

Great source of helpful info - thanks for sharing!

You're welcome!

Good topic we should maximize our time and who better to help than Niel Patel.

I agree, he is quite the SEO expert.
