9. 2. Ranking is
EVERYTHING

10. Ranking is important but
it's hard to measure and
makes less sense when
Google customizes
search results for every
user based on their
interests, location,
visited sites, search
history, etc.

11. 3. Slow Speed Page

12. Do a website audit.
Talk to your IT guys.
Reduce your web file size.
Speed up your site.
Don't drive your potential customers crazy...

13. 4. Too Many 404
404 error is like the
dead end sign online.

and fix the broken links.
Design a fun 404 page
that guides the visitors

19. 7. Ignore Local
Audience

20. People love to shop at local stores.

21. So understand their interests, get into the
community ... and show them you are local.

22. 8. Only Talk About
Your Products

23. 9. Identical Meta
Title/Description
Every page exists for a
reason. They are all special.
So give them different
titles and descriptions.

24. 10. Strategy with no
Data Support
is not called strategy.

25. 11. Never Update/Submit
Your sitemap
Wonder why users never find you?

26. It's probably time to stop playing 'Where's Waldo'
with the search engine.

27. Share this
slideshare if you
HATE these crazy
mistakes like I do.
Or if you just think they are funny.
