I bet we all realize that search engines are more complex now then ever before. It isn’t that easy anymore to put up a new web site and rank high in the search result listings.

Even though search engines keep changing and we will never be able to fully understand what makes a site rank high, we still need to learn basic SEO (search engine optimization) tactics.

There have been many gray-black hat SEO methods come and go, but there are certain white hat tactics that will always work. It is those white hate methods that you as an online business owner should understand.

Basic SEO methods are not hard to understand or implement, but like most thing which are worth doing, it can take time to work.

This is an issue that I keep finding myself having to consider, especially with all of the new web2.0 community sites like Facebook and MySpace.

The issue is: Should we mix our business community profile with our personal life profile?

I want to have a profile, but I am not sure if I should combine my personal friends with my business friends? Networking is a part of these community sites. Even if these sites were not created for business use, networking is going to happen simply because of all of the people in the community.

However, do I want to mix personal and business on these sites? I act differently between personal and business friends (I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not, but it is how it is for me), so if I had both combined in the same profile, then they both might get confused seeing business/personal messages being sent.

Do you mix personal and business when it comes to web2.0 community site profiles?
Do you have multiple accounts to separate business and personal?

I recently created a new profile in a common community site and have added friends from both sides… but I am now considering if I should create another account and move some of the friends.

Please comment and let me know what you think and what you do about this.
