It's one of those articles that, when you read it, it all seems so obvious and you probably have all this info jumbling around in your head, but never really put it together as one linear thought.

You speak the truth. I'll be referring back to this often. @Rob I agree 100%. Since I've been doing consulting work with small businesses, 98% don't have any SEO or XHTML/CSS Standards Validation. @mrstrider Those are some great points. Content is king. When developing your article ideas, always keep in mind the end user. The content is for them, not for us. And promotion is key. No use in doing all the busy work if nobody can find you. Great article Brian!

More importantly, apply XHTML and CSS validation standards. Remarkeable that less than 7% of top 100 retailers dont check this...no wonder sites lose clicks when this is so easy to do! and good article!
