HI all, i bought the powersuit software, and pretty happy with how it works.

My only concerns are whether i should trust the recommendations or not? IT seems that what its trying to do is get you as close as possible to what the top 10 listing companies are doing. which is OK, but is it the page optimisation thats getting them there or is it another factor like links?

the website auditor wants me to chain my page title and descriptions etc the opposite from what i have learnt and im not sure i trust it. it wants less keywords and less prominence so i fit in with the top ten rankers, but these have V poor page optimisation as well, so are only probably ranking because of there links or Google PR.

Anyone understand what im rambling about? Should i trust what there saying and make the changes to suit the report, or stick with what i thinks best?

thanks dudes.

Thanks for the question. It has been asked previously, you might want to take a look at similar threads:

The thing is that WebSite Auditor is just a tool based on relative analysis of things working in practice. As you said, it does not consider inbound links and is a solely onpage optimization tool, so you should combine your work in WebSite Auditor with backlink analysis in SEO SpyGlass.

Another trick is to find the most optimized competitor in each page elements' section — just scroll down to find the list of competitors' page elements, and see who's using the keyword the most. What WebSite Auditor helps you is avoid over-optimization, keyword spamming.
