Step 3. Make your heading start with short heading and match the content.

Step 5. a. Do not place too many keywords of one or b. do not place too many diffrent keywords. In a. case it will narrow your search optimization to only one set of keyword family In B case it will confuse the search engine while categorizing

Step 6. Place your keywords in the Meta-Tags which are used to detail your website. Write keywords 30 to 60 which are related to your website, and what user should type to see the services Write the Description related to the starting para of website, URL, couple of keywords and services but not more than 100 words.

Step 7. Place each link with a short hint what it is. This will also be your keyword indirectly

Step 11. Links from various websites back to you. You should be carefull where your links are listed. do no place links where you are not related to that website. Anylink you place write your keyword and href link and a alt tag to help the link connect your website

Step 12. Maintine the common theme throught site will help easy categorization and optimization. If you have diffrent categories in your website then you should better do this in sub domains or diffrent directories and follow the same steps for each directory or subdomain you make

In case any broken links in the site will bring back to the site map. Site map helps visitors and search engines to follow your website easily.

Write the Robots.txt in to your root directory and copy the user agents of which search engines you are more consern about.

Ground work is more important than buying adv, link exchanges etc. If your website is not the way bots want then how much money you spend is just going to be in the waterfall.

My research on many diffrent websites included major search engines like google, yahoo, aol, alltheweb etc.

From their news review I found that each search engine carries their own rules and its hard to provide results for everyone. So follow the standards not monopolies

Seek Engines: What If Seek Had Bumped Out Search?

In the early days of the World Wide Web, when things were just getting started many geek speak terms were jockeying for position to be the standards for years to come. I used to drive by a California-based company every day that had named itself YKK and think, “What a pity.”

Then I think what if the World Wide Web had lost out to the World Wide Subway System (WWSS) or some other less noble term? Then I take it one step further and think, “What if the term search had lost out to seek”? Let’s think about this for a moment. Seek is a good word with a nearly identical meaning to search. In fact, in the Oxford American Dictionary (with the torn off cover and publishing info) it states that seek means “?to make a search or inquiry for, to try to find or obtain or do.”

In Seek Of

What would be the repercussions of using seek speak instead of search? First there would be the seek engines and the seek engine optimizers who would try to get top rankings on these engines. Then you would have specialized seeking going on like local seek, personalized seek and contextual seek. There may be terms bandied about like seek engine specific algorithms, seek options, seek tips, seek tools and seek toolbars. If you’re looking for someone online, this would be people seek. If there is something that you cannot find, you would be seeking high and low. Out in the real world you may conduct a talent seek for the next teen idol.

Heck if you happened to be out and lost in the woods at night, the seek party would come looking for you using their seek lights. If by some chance, you had done something morally reprehensible to a bear or a small woodland creature while you were in the woods, you may wish to do a little soul seeking. If you have a pattern of committing these reprehensible acts and keeping pictures on your home PC, then the police may obtain a seek warrant to bring you to justice.

Search and Ye Shall Find

What if there had also been a backlash to all of this seeking? In the struggle to become the number one term for the same activity, this could happen. The instant messenger service ICQ could have chosen to go another direction and today we would have cumbersome ISEARCH4U. Some of the search engine themselves may now have different names such as WhatUSearch.com, OneSearch.com and ExactSearch.com. Out in the real world, your kids could be playing Hide & Search. And, if the police were closing in on you for the aforementioned reprehensible acts, you may be searching asylum in another country.

Fun of Finding

The goal of seeking or searching is to find. If you find what you need, you’ve had a successful experience. But, what if from the early experiences on the Internet, neither search nor seek were chosen in order to find? We could talk about the Look or Find Engines now, but that’s a whole new subject altogether, my friend. Let’s just leave this one alone.

Search Engine Marketing: Choosing Keyword Phrases

Selecting the right keyword phrases is the key to a successful search engine marketing campaign.

Industry statistics indicate that as many as 85% of all initial Website visits begin with a search engine query, and according to researchers NPD Group, more online purchases originate from search engine listings than from any other source. It’s no wonder, then, that search engine marketing campaigns ? which include organic search engine placement, paid inclusion, and pay-per-click, among the major elements ? are a centerpiece of every online marketing strategy.

A marketer’s first step in developing a successful search engine marketing campaign is optimizing each page on their website with a set of relevant keywords. In the audiobook, “Sound Advice on Search Engine Optimization,” author Jill Whalen says, “The keyword phrases you choose to focus on within your visible Web Page copy is the key to success.”

Whalen notes that marketers need to use keywords that are most relevant to their Web site ? two and three-word phrases that best describe their products and services. To develop a list, start with a brainstorming session. What words will prospective customers use to search for information? How often are people searching for those words and phrases?

“Once you have a decent list,” says Whalen, “head on over to WordTracker.com, which will tell you how many people are actually searching on those keywords.” From there, rewrite or edit the copy on each Web page, utilizing the best keyword selections. “Submit these pages to the search engines, and soon you should start to see your traffic soar!”
