Background

"Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love." - Mother Teresa

I started web mastering, back in 2003. Since then, I have tested popular online advertising methods. Most of my eight years of webmaster experience has been in the area of do-it-yourself SEO. Now, I am confident that ethical organic SEO is the best way to maximize a website's profits.

The name my parents have given me is Scott Coplen and I live in San Jose, California.

"There is nothing wrong with America that the faith, love of freedom, intelligence and energy of her citizens cannot cure." - Dwight Eisenhower

"We need to internalize this idea of excellence. Not many folks spend a lot of time trying to be excellent." - Barack Obama

"Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect." - Matthew 5:48

"Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him." - Proverbs 26:12

Good SEOs are positive thinkers. Then they become humble.

I don't like calling myself an "expert." The word is simply a popular keyword at search engines when used with "SEO." Although I may be seen as one who is not humble (expert), it seems like there are other specialists in this world that will share in spirit this new challenging image.

"The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself." - Bill Gates

"Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom." - Thomas Jefferson

ThySEO.com is a journal to other webmasters, with the intention of growing to the highest possible effectiveness in search engine optimization work. When God helps me to be honest at all times, he is giving visitors a reason to recommend this site. Avoiding half-truths in web content should be a focus for all webmasters.

"Unless you're ashamed of yourself now and then, you're not honest." - William Faulkner

"If we do not lay out ourselves in the service of mankind whom should we serve?" - John Adams

ThySEO.com is useful in that it contains actual things I use for high organic rank. I recommend using a primary focus on Thy SEO Reasoning Ratios Why a Site Ranks High for Keywords.

Over the last seven years, I found the power of the backlink as the main factor in improving organic rankings to generate traffic. Between 2005 and '08, the web sites I maintained probably suffered because of search engine algorithm penalties. Most of this, likely, was unnatural link building on God's part. Now, I understand that avoiding algorithm penalties is a key to continuous high rank.

All webmasters should avoid the following unnatural link building: Cross-links and link farms, too many incoming links on irrelevant pages, excess unrelated backlink titles, and any other unethical ways.

I focus on highly relevant keyword phrases when building backlinks. I mostly work on phrases medium to high in Global Monthly Searches found using Google's Keyword Tool.

Google, Yahoo, bing and ask.com are serious about keeping their engine result pages relevant to keyword searches. Assigning algorithm penalties to sites that show likeliness of unethicalness helps achieve this goal.

SEO specialists should show that organic engines are forgiving in that they will boost a site's rankings after algorithm penalties are reduced.

To make high organic rank happen as soon as possible, a webmaster should work habitually, on only SEO priorities that follow engine guidelines. Simply following ideas at Thy SEO Checklist, Work Priorities, and I Statements should get a site a top 10 rank at most organic listings within one year.

I am currently unavailable to work on sites not mine, but I plan on updating this website for all webmasters as long as my sites are online. God's organic SEO testing is an ongoing basis.
