* logfile analysis and knowing what to do based on that information
* complex information architecture
* robots.txt (beyond the basics)
* and much more that would fall under “advanced SEO”…

What about client site networks that are duplicated, 302'd and generally just world's of no. What about tieing the KW's, Anchors, Link Building, htags, Meta descriptions together into a synergy SE's cannot ignore. What about when you need to rank fast and do some advanced link building to get into the serps from a standing start fast. I consider link building advanced, expecially when your pushing the limits of what appears natural to our Google robotic (and human assisted) friend. What about long term competitive strategy to ensure those WHAT IF moments are largely covered? It's late and I am rambling - but what is new.

Question: What else is “advanced” SEO? I am thinking:

  • fixing broken CMS and frameworks for various SEO aspects like strict URLs
  • identifying and resolving search engine penalties
  • competing in the top 3 spots with other, competitive SEOs
  • accepting specific performance targets like new domain ranking inside 3 weeks, new company ranking top 5 for competitive market inside 3 months, etc.

Other things that are “advanced SEO” ?
