Update: September 22nd, 2008 - 1:53 PM - Revision 09] I have updated the Web Developer's SEO Cheat Sheet(PDF) to include suggestions from comments. This new version hasadditional information and clears up some ambiguity. Thank you toeveryone in the comments who helped make this better!


When I first started at SEOmoz about 9 months ago, I was the webdevelopment intern. My experience prior to the internship was limitedentirely to writing code. Since then, I have spent literally hundredsof hours expanding my knowledge into different areas. Specifically, Ihave focused on accepted SEO techniques and small business practices.My beginner SEO checklistsof the last few weeks have been the tangible result of my newlyacquired knowledge. In an effort to return to my roots, I spent themajority of the day compiling what I believe to be the mother of alltechnical SEO cheat sheets. The recommended viewing format of thischeat sheet is as a PDF rather than the traditional blog post (I foundthe blog posts inconvenient to print). Let me know if this new formatworks better for all of you. I also included snippets below so you cansee what is on the cheat sheet before you download it. Enjoy!
