Lorelle: Those were the mistakes I made when I started blogging but I’m glad I have a chance to correct them. So for new bloggers, it would save them a lot of time making these corrections later if they started with the right things!

Mania: It’s called the “river terrapin” and it’s distribution is only limited to South and Southeast Asia, and has been recently classified as the Top 25 most endangered freshwater turtles and tortoises. I’m glad you liked it, because many people aren’t bothered with them..

Sorry for the off-topic comment, but that is the most adorable little turtle. Between that and the reference to pet turtles in the text, I decided to track down your blog (via the complicated process of clicking on your name) and am now happily perusing your turtle posts. Thanks!

Excellent points! Thanks.

These are the simplest of things that are so often overlooked, forgotten, or ignored by so many bloggers, and yet they are the easiest to do. EVERY image and link should have a title and/or alt attribute, and links need to tell people where they are going, and the text around them needs to say why. Excellent!

Thanks for reminding us of the basics which helps us help our readers more than most any SEO trick or technique.

And thanks for the plug for my book. You didn’t have to, so thanks!
