Anybody in today's online market can claim to have SEO expertise, however there are certain things you should know before paying anybody to optimize your website and engage in search engine marketing.
One thing you should know is that there is no certifying body for search engine optimization expertise, no company will vouch for the quality of a search engine optimizer. However there are highly recognised exams that can be passed and an online certificate made available via a company called web CEO. If your SEO consultant can provide one of these then their expertise are pretty much in place.
Some things, any quality search marketer should offer are, a site analysis, this will be to highlight faults in your site and any changes that need to be made in order to make your site search engine friendly. Another thing any good SEO expert should also do is put a link building and maintenance strategy in place. You should know exactly how your pages are going to increase in link popularity.
All quality optimizers with the correct expertise should only engage in ethical SEO practices. A sure fire way of knowing if company does this is by how much they charge and what they promise. If a company charges a small amount and guarantees top positions the chances are your site will get banned if you deal with them.
Another thing any search engine expert should provide is a detailed monthly report proving the progress they are making with your site. It should contain ranking stats, link stats, optimisation reports, keyword research and progressive improvements. A brand new site will take between 6 - 12 months to get a first page ranking and once you are there it will need maintaining, a common misconception is that a site can be optimized once for long term success. This is not the case and will cost you dearly.
Make sure anybody claiming to have expertise has full contact details and is able to give you a fixed price before they commence the work. SEO is a long process and results are not always seen straight away, but if you have seen no improvement in 3 months then it is time to start worrying.
Search engine expertise are gained through experience and trial and error. You cannot learn SEO in a year and be able to offer as higher service as someone who has been doing it 5 or 6 years. SEO expertise are sort after qualities and ones that can put your business at the top of the rankings, just make sure you are hiring an SEO expert.

Keyword Research For Google Adsense
When it comes to keyword research you need to be thinking like your potential client. If you owned a website that sold cars you should be asking yourself what would potential clients type in about the cars I sell, what end result would they be looking for? This may take you down the route of thinking about makes models, fuel economy and safety.
When it comes to optimising our pages for Google we should be thinking about keywords very carefully and using the Google keyword tool to help us decide how to go about it. Start by typing in some words you may use, look at the different variations, see which ones have good traffic and see which ones have poor traffic.
When it comes to assessing the competition of a keyword there is a simple structure to follow. First look for a keyword that has a bit of traffic and is not too competitive, according to the keyword tool. Then type the search term into Google, what your looking for here is all the sites that use any combination of your keyword in the site title. Follow the pages back until the titles become less optimised.
If your search takes you back more than five pages then you are going to have to include some off page optimisation in order to reach the first page. If results fade on the second page there is a good chance your going to be able to rank highly, quickly.
Once you have chosen a good keyword which isn't too competitive and has some traffic it is time to implement it on your page. You need to ensure it is included in your title tag and that it appears at the beginning. Any images on your page should be given the correct alt attribute and optimised for your chosen keyword. Your headings are a great way to create emphasis on your chosen keywords. Make sure your h1 has your chosen keyword in it.
There is a lot of debate about keyword density or the amount of times your chosen keyword should appear within your content. Anywhere between 3 and 6 percent should be fine to ensure you are getting the spiders attention. Remember Google SEO is all about relevance. The more relevance you create throughout the optimisation process the greater the chances are of you ranking highly. You're your keywords correctly, optimise your page and build a few optimised links if necessary, this will ensure you are covering every angle and enable you to dominate the keyword.

SEO For Adsense
In order to make money online with absense you must drive search engine traffic to your site. In order to do this you must select your keywords carefully. There are two elements to selecting the correct keyword, 1 it must be low competition and it must provide some traffic.
If you could write a post a day that brings in 10 visitors a month, in one month of writing you would have generated 300 new search visitors a month.
If you want to learn how to target longtail keywords I recommend reading this quality Google SEOBlog.
Remember search traffic converts and social traffic will not.
