Janeth, have you read my replies? Is everything black or white with you? I never shared this is the only thing you have to do to rank in search engines. The post is entitled on page factors, that's it, these are optimal on page factors for a quality web site that will in turn improve the rankings of a page.
Are there other things that should be done in the scheme of an overall
SEO initiative? Of course. Are there other avenues to drive traffic? Of course. Should a web site overlook these factors? No.
The key point of these items was to give a beginner or even experienced web designer a solid foundation to building a well balanced web site that with work will perform well in search engines.
To answer your question, I do feel that over time, a site built this way will not only rank, but outperform others if everything else is equal. I'm not sure how my point is getting construed to mean something else. Never written here were the words "Only
SEO Things You Need To Do For Success", why is that the view you've taken?
