I'm not an expert but here are some of the things that work for us:
making sure you have relevant keywords on each page - don't just use the same ones on every page of your site put alt tags on any images and graphics on your sites keep your site informative - for the search engines that are done manually, especially, they like information (so, too, do your visitors) Build your pages with Heading 1, Heading 2 and Heading 3 links to and from your site can be beneficial but be selective. If a site linking to you gets blacklisted, you're in danger of receiving the same treatment make sure sites that you link to and from are relevant to your site's content There's lots more and I'm sure others will be able to give you more comprehensive answers. Good luck! Ads |

I came across a great link just yesterday (below).
More generally, there are a lot of knowledgeable SEOs with blogs, who just LOVE to write tip lists and acquire traffic that way. Just try searching for them and you'll find them fast. But you may also find some junk. searchengineland.com, seomoz.com, and sphinn.com are all very reputable. Go to those and follow your nose, and you'll quickly see what is and isn't trustworthy. |

SEO is the active practice of optimizing a web site by improving internal and external aspects in order to increase the traffic the site receives from search engines.
http://www.seomoz.org/article/beginners-...timization Keyword search Keyword research enables site owners to choose keywords when constructing and optimizing a website (page). Keyword research is also extensively used to manage PPC advertising campaigns or if you are looking to research and identify profitable niche markets. When performing keyword research for constructing and optimizing a website (page) you are looking to select search terms that will reach your target audience. One of the common mistakes made by some SEOs is to avoid choosing keywords that are very competitive. Searchers tend to use a lot modifiers when they search and the more competitive the search term the more likely they are to use a modifier. Removing the possibility of ranking well for these modified searches is not a good idea. Competition can be a factor in deciding how to target a specific search term but you should never ignore a search term simply because you believe it is too competitive. http://www.seo-blog.com/tutorial.php You can do several things to increase traffic flow. When making your own web site do some research on how to optimize your site so that you get a good ranking with a natural search.

You may want to consider some simple algorithms which,
when observed and committed in designing of a website with placement of various critical metatags that can surely achieve a high search engine presence and increase Internet traffic to your website. These metatag strategies work well with published webpages at Google and Yahoo. Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based website, make sure to fill-in the property entries such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the Internet audience and their incoming setup. For example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages take too long to load up and therefore analog users will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple question, "Who's my end user - is he on dialup or DSL?" And if you had to choose between these two users for maximum marketability, then select analog users since 80% of most resident users are still analog Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages is best for them. A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text, is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a graphic, they are not indexable by search robots. Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots are unable to properly classify textual material. Placement of Metatags: A ranking or search order does take place with Google and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which should consist of no more than 65 characters separated by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic terms, the goods and services, followed by a location from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state. The placement of a domain name which is not generic within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your domain name is a major recognizable brand name. The second metatag is the "Description" which is usually 41 words to form a complete sentence which best describes one's goods and services. And the very last category - "Keywords" are also somewhat limited to 15 words which can be plural and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which is defined as the loading, and submission of repetitive words into a particular metatag category. "Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported to Google's spamreport.com can result in the elimination of your website from their search directory. Good luck! |

The first thing you need to do is get your website ready for search engine optimization. First you will need to work on the onsite optimization. Make sure you do a keyword search and find keywords that are relevent to your website. A good place to check for keywords would be https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
This is a very good tool to check for good keywords. Next you will have to get some good keywords in the title tags section of the website. Don't over do it maybe 3 or 4 high traffic keywords will do. Then you will have to fill in the meta tag descriptions and meta tag keywords. In the descriptions section do a max of 2 sentences that describe your website and use keywords as well. Then take all the keywords that you want to use and place them in the mets keywords section. As you know content is king with google so add as much content as you can with a good amount of keywords to help describe your website. You can also add a keyword above some paragraphs and use the Heading 1 tag. This will help with the search engines as well. Heading tag looks like this <h1>keyword</h1> This will show up bigger than the rest of the content. This will get your website ready for the offsite optimization. Offsite optimization includes any of the following: 1.) Link building 2.) article creation and submission 3.) social bookmarking 4.) Press releases All of these tools will do wonder for your website. |
