Christmas SEO? Start Now!
Being that SEO usually takes 3-6 months to get going, and that the Christmas holiday shopping spree’s are expected to start a little early this year, starting your SEO campaigns for the Christmas holiday now, just might be the right thing to do.
After watching this Alarming Headline on Christmas Shopping, I realized that what he’s getting at is is so true ( be sure to watch the Comedy Central Clip on the Economy too).
So what do you need to do to begin your Christmas SEO?
Two things: 1) Decide that you’re going to SEO your site for Christmas and 2) Make a plan for how you’re going to SEO your site for the Christmas holiday.
Number 1 has to be done first. It is the essence and crux of every plan. You must make the decision that it is what you want. If you haven’t been convinced either way, then you need to make that decision soon, or you’ll miss out on the extra holiday search engine traffic.
The second element is the plan. Don’t just get in the car and decide to get there (get where?) , or you may end up with your car in a river! Plan the family vacation to Disney Land, pack the swimsuits, put gas in the car and map out the route.
Take that analogy and apply it to your SEO campaign. Pick your keywords, plan your online day, purposefully place links all over the internet in support of your website, blog or ecommerce site. Optimize title tags for the holiday spirit, have articles written, ready to submit to directories and blogs… and the list goes on.
I know that I’ll be starting to SEO my Sexy Lingerie store soon, especially since the holiday trend is maximal at the Halloween through Valentines day time frame.
The moral of the story is: Start your Christmas SEO projects and campaigns now!
Good Luck!

If your son/daughter had downs syndrome and someone made a joke about it, you’d probably be offended too. But, the Family Guy video is blocked at work, so I can’t really judge the full context.
