Here is another tip on Search Engine Optimization from Redscowl Bluesingsky.us. Know your competition. You know that we are in several SEO Competitions right now, and it is pretty hectic when trying to compete in all of them.
However, you should try and know who your competition is, and how you can beat them. For example, if you check the backlinks to your competitors website, you can see what kind of person he/she is. If the backlinks are mainly from random forums, view those forums and see if the person is a forum spammer.
If these backlinks are coming from unique websites, search for a link exchange page and exchange links with them, or WHOIS the owner and ask him.
If the backlinks are comments from random blog websites, then you know he/she probably uses spamming techniques. We are not saying that you should become a spammer or thread spammer to beat your competition, we are saying that on those web pages, you can create a link back to your website or find better links.
In simpler terms, you are shutting out your competition!

I can’t believe some of these people that spam forums just to win a dumb contest!
Well, some people do. I have the perfect example:
blogcontestsite.com
I researched this persons backlink techniques and found out that she spammed nearly 50 blogs with the same post:
“Thanks for the tip
Jane”
She had a link back to her website as well..I mean come on, the least she could do is write something related to the blog!!
[…] Just so people are wondering how we got back up instead of falling down, we are happy to say that we “shut down our competition” and it was pretty hard work, but we got it done! […]
Um, blogs have the no follow code, so they don’t do anything to get you to the top!!! Done spamming this post. :D:D:D:D
If ALL blogs have a nofollow code, then why does Google count the backlinks?
