SEOptimise’s blog, “Five online marketing New Year’s resolutions,” provides five healthy reminders for your 2009 goals, especially if you’re still not optimizing your online marketing potential via search engine marketing (SEM) and search engine optimization (SEO) quite like you should.

Resolutions include: set a budget, start a blog, focus on your auidence, seek experts (especially when you don’t exactly know what to do), and be personable (build relationships, don’t base your online voice on tooting your brand’s horn).

Don’t let fear or failure or the unknown daunt your marketing resolutions. Sure, there are signficant changes in the economy, consumer behavior and online marketing techniques. While our realities are undergoing constnat evolution, there are certain SEO truisms that still reign supreme, such as: lots of relevant, keyword-rich content; great inbound links and proper site architecture and fomratting.

Focus on the basics, put forth a plan for this year and just take the first steps. A little action, even if imperfectly executed, is better than procrastinating for a better quarter, a bigger budget or a more stable economy. Go forth and resolve to better position your site and establish better relationships with your audience in 2009!
