Search Engine Optimization
(SEO)
It's very interesting to talk about Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
What is SEO? SEO is the process of optimizing your web
pages so that search engines can quickly find out what
your website is all about.
There are so many articles and webmasters talk about SEO techniques, webdesign, site
promotion, seo contest, link building, and so on. It takes time to
discuss about SEO. We know there are 2 types of optimization:
onpage optimization and
offpage optimization. I try to explain onpage and offpage optimization. Let us optimize our webpage !
Important things
about Onpage Optimization are:
1. Add a Title
The page Title should include ONLY our main keywords.
The least amount of words you use, the more weight Google will give to
reach of the keywords and the higher you will rank.
- delete words "and" in your Title
- replace ands with "|" character
- always combine the keywords, for example:
combine "submit search engine" with "search engine optimization" to
"submit search engine optimization".
2. The Meta Keywords tag
The Meta Keywords tag allows you to define which
search terms are important to your web page according to your opinion.
It should be placed between the <head> ... </head> tags in the HTML code
of your web page. Many search engines don't use this tag anymore.
Example : <META
NAME="Keywords" CONTENT="MES-SEOmaster, SEO Consultant, SEO Techniques,
webmaster">
At least one keyword per 1-2
paragraphs, depending on how large your page is. Place your main
keyword: at the very top left and at the very bottom right hand side of
the web/content. It is also good if you put your keyword after
copyright sign.
3. The Meta Description
tag
The Meta Description tag allows you to describe your
web page. Some search engines display the text of the Meta
Description tag in the search results That means that this tag
allows you to influence the appearance of your search results in some
search engines.
Example : <META
NAME="Description" CONTENT="MES-SEOmaster.com is a site about SEO
Techniques, SEO Articles, SEO Contests, Site Promotion"> 4. Body Text
The body text is the text on your web page that can
be seen by people in their web browsers. It does not include HTML
commands, comments, etc. The more visible text there is on a web
page, the more a search engine can index. The body text of a web
page is very important to search engines.
5. The First Sentence of
The Body Text
The first sentence of the body text is the first
sentence after the <body> tag in the HTML code of your web page.
Some search engines give more relevance to search terms when they appear
in the first sentence. Some will use your first sentence as the
description of your page on the search result page. Note that the
first sentence of the body text is often not the first sentence that is
visible on your web page. Depending on your web page design, the
first sentence might appear somewhere else on your page. Search
engines consider the first sentence that can be found after the body
text as the first sentence, regardless of where it appears on your page.
Example : <body>This is the
first sentence. This text is not the first sentence.</body>
6. Add <h1> header tags
(Headlines)
Some search engines give extra relevance to search
terms that appear in the headline texts. Use your main keywords
for <h1> header tags.
Example :
<h1>SEO World from MES-SEOmaster.com</h1>
7. Add <h2> header tags
Use your second keywords for <h2> header tags,
i.e. <h2>Search Engine Optimization</h2>
8. Add <h3> header tags
Use your other keywords for <h3> header tags,
i.e <h3>SEO Articles</h3>
9. Add <h4> header tags
You can place your other related keywords at the last
part of your contents. For example I put my keywords "Another
related SEO articles" for <h4> header tags. You can also
place your keywords at Navigation menu for <h4> header tags as you
can see menus in this page.
10. Bolding, italicizing, and underlining
Do them only one time each, maximum. Only do
one per keyword.
11. Properly include <alt> image tags
Click on 2 more graphics through your webpage and
enter your other 2 keywords plus extra word "graphic" or "image", avoid
spam. For example: alt="MES-SEOmaster image1".
12. Force Google to read your keyword first!
Google's spider will read your webpage from top left
to bottom right.
Rather than make your webpage like this:
navigational links
your body text
You should
make it like this:
your body text
navigational links
Google now sees our content
(body text) BEFORE our navigation menu.
Onpage Optimization will make SMALL changes in
your ranking, but WILL NOT help your site make dramatic jumps in
ranking. It is the OFFPAGE OPTIMIZATION factors that will get you
high rankings.
Please see the video
first before
continuing our lesson. Just for relaxation. The video title is
"KIWI".

Kiwi is so cool and touching, right? Okay,
it's time now to study more about Offpage Optimization.
Important things
about Offpage Optimization are:
1. Which websites link to you
2. The number of websites linking to you
3. The Google page rank of the website linking to you
4. The page title of the website linking to you
5. The anchor text used in the link linking to you
6. The number and type of links linking to the website that's linking to
you
7. The number of outbound links on the website that's linking to you
8. The total number of links on the website that's linking to you
9. Whether or not the websites linking to you are deemed by Google as an
authority website, etc.
That's all for
awhile. Next time I will describe one by one about Offpage
Optimization.
For this time I also
