Graywolf published a short essay on an interesting SEO practice he names Predictive SEO. Basically, try to think about what the future on a topic which suits your activity could be made of, and prepare search engines for it.
For instance, if baseball is your game and you want to be ready for web traffic in 2007:
1. build pages with titles such as “New York Yankees 2007 World Series Champions”, “New York Mets 2007 World Series Champion” and so on with every team name.
2. put them on a mini site map page on a well established domain to make sure they get spidered and eventually give them some relevant content.
As the season would go by and you would foresee potential season winnners, you would already have spidered pages ready for real content and real traffic.
Predictive SEO can apply to any subject, as long as you have a manageable number of events likely to happen. Graywolf tips a few suggestions, and among them Hurricane Names, which I spent a few minutes on as a live example.
