google and search engine marketing

for some reason, our sites do very well on google and it's such a strange science that probably deserves a fan club devoted to it.

If you search for google marketing tips, you'd assume the front page of results know what they're talking about. we have a recent article on the first page of results that was published only two days ago.

i wondered if anybody else had any tips and tricks that they build into their programming to optimize their pages search engine placement, without giving away their biggest secrets

it's something that people overlook and get lazy about when it comes down to the fact that building websites the right away is what it's all about, and leading search engines, like google, take notice of this. it's not even that difficult or expensive to do.

You can gain foreign traffic by having translations of your site, which bumps them up on foreign versions of search engines like google. More explaination: http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum18/265.htm
