Here are my responses to more questions in my recent interview with DistinctSEO.
Q: What’s more important to you? On page optimization or off-page optimization.Ans: Off page optimization for sure. If you ever have the opportunity to run a website that gets thousands of visitors from Google a month, it is truly a mind boggling experience. With more people using Google every month the referrals from Google grow at dramatic rates every year. If you can dominate the top three positions for your desired search terms, especially if you can manage to capture a few #1 rankings you will excel.

Google will give your website significantly higher rankings if the websites linking to you are related and if the link to your site comes from a links page, ideally all of the links on that page should also be related to your content.
