Well this is just going to be a quick post since it is Friday and 6pm but I thought I would just write a quick bit about one of my new clients who is extremely interesting. In fact I didn't even think that we had any of these types of businesses in the UK but that's the great thing with SEO - you work with a lot of different businesses all the time.
The business I am talking about is a company called Upton Cheyney Chilli Farm who specialise in making their very own chilli sauces, chilli jam, hot chillies and they also hold their very own chilli festival at their farm every summer which to be honest I would love to attend.
At the moment we are ranking quite well for the terms chilli sauce and chilli jam however I have a few good ideas up my sleeve for next month which will put us hopefully on Page 1 Google UK for the two main key terms.
This is a very nice company to work with and to be honest it is a nice product to work with as well because it is so different from the other projects I have worked on over the years. Anyways it is time to leave it at that for this week!

Guest Blogging Is Still A Good Link Building Method
I have been reading a few articles of people suggesting that link building via guest posts and guest blogging on other peoples blogs is not a good method of link building and I must say that I think this is totally incorrect.
What I have noticed is that nearly every method of link building comes under fire at some point which could lead a person to believe that all methods of link building don't work, which of course is nonsense. I guess this is the exciting thing about SEO in the fact that you can literally make your own mind up and then create a strategy that you think will work most effectively.
Anyway back to guest blogging, I have been doing quite a bit this month and I am very happy with the results. I know that I am writing a 100% original piece of content and so the blog owner will be happy. Also I am getting either myself or one of my clients a nice anchor text backlink to their website which is a always helpful. The good thing about this method of link building is it is totally organic and it allows you to get links from websites where you would not normally be able to get them from.
I do believe that guest blogging is going to be one of the few link building methods to never stop working unless Google seriously changes the way they rank sites which might happen in time but not in the near future.
On another note I have taken on a new client called 4 Pets Store which is really cool and one of the main keywords I am looking to rank for is dog beds uk, which should be on page 1 by the end of the month. Hopefully then we can start moving the site into some more competitive terms such as just dog beds as this is where the real traffic is.
