Weather you run a web site or a brick and mortar commercial enterprise, you need visitants to your location and to drive traffic to your commercial enterprise, you need to be active and do some solid work. Sometimes the closest distance from one point to another, is the difficult way about, so you will need to get involved in one kind of traffic optimization to get the task done.

A serious offer for your customers is forever a good way to get traffic, the offering can be date stamp based so that you make the offer on dead dealings days. Based on your wares you can provide discounts, bropas or some different saving on vacations too. It is a noted fact that discounts force traffic to both online shops and material stores.

If you operate an on-line shop or a website you will need SEO to get the traffic you want, traffic from search engines is great and converts better so that you will get higher sales and more clients.

Just like your shop in the city, your store on the internet must have a good base and a solid construction so both your bricklayer and your host must be world-class. Like they say about pizza pies, if the dough is good, the whole pizza pie is good.

Don?t go for the most low cost answer unless you are one hundred pct certain that it is as well the optimal answer, you will have to stick to your first pick for a prolonged period and you will relieve yourself from a good deal of difficulty after on.

Still, 90% of webmasters don`t know how to achieve high search engine positions. In this article, you`ll learn what the 90% doesn`t…

First of all, I would like to give a huge credit to Brad Callen, a man that taught me more than any other “guru” on the planet. He is so simple, and always gets to the point. you can visit his site at seoelite.com (note: In show of respect, I`m not even his affiliate, so if you buy SEO Elite, the software you must have for SEO to decimate your time spent, I won`t get a penny from it).

Back to the start.
What is actually SEO- search engine optimization?

Well, in the previous articles you`ve learned how to choose a domain name for your website, how to choose a web host , how to actually make your own website and what (profitable) topic should your website be about.
Now it`s time for SEO.

SEO is simply adjusting your website to get high position in the search engine results.

When you were an ordinary surfer, let`s say you searched for “jokes”. What you probably didn`t know is that the first 10 websites in the results busted their asses for such positions. Admit it, you didn`t even care. You just wanted to get relevant results for keyword “jokes”. Newsflash, you got them.

That`s what search engines are for: providing relevant content for their users.

Now that you are in the website development business, your goal is to get one of those top 10 positions.

Some people say it`s hard, I say it requires time. If you don`t know how to achieve high rankings then it`s hard.

You`ll learn how to do it right here, in this article, only on Construct-a-site.com :) )).

Let`s start with the proven facts why should you even optimize your website for search engines like Google, Yahoo! and MSN (top 3)

  • Search engines are the best source for free and targeted (you`ll learn what “targeted traffic” is in the upcoming articles) traffic.

  • Search engines bring you more than 80% of your total traffic.

  • Without Search Engines no one would be able to find your website that quick (or maybe not at all).

  • CONCLUSION: it is essential to get your site indexed by search engines

Yep, totally essential. Finally, let`s start kicking SE-s asses.

Factors that affect your rankings

As my mentor Brad would say, there are 2 factors that have effect on your search engine positioning:
The on-page optimization factors

  1. The on-page optimization factors
  2. The off-page optimization factors

The on-page optimitation factors

Generally, for Google- less important, for Yahoo and MSN- quite important.

There is a phrase: “Content is the king”, which is totally true.

The on-page factors include how is a website built, and by that I don`t mean the design. Here is what really counts to search engines:

  • Using h1 header tags. Make all of your article and web page titles under the h1 header tags and put some of your main keywords under them. Search engines love that !

  • Using alt image tags.
    If you have images on your website, make sure you describe them with alt tags. Also, put some of your keywords into them. Search engines love that !

  • Use ordered and unordered lists. They have bigger importance than the normal text, and will also help your visitors that “scan” for information. Search engines love that !

  • Give your text more order and “readability”.
    Don`t put everything in one place. Break the text with paragraphs. Bold and italicize important keywords. “All-in-all”, make your visitors enjoy reading your content. Search engines love that !

  • Regulary update your website with fresh content. Your visitors will be very pleased to find out that a new article about their favourite topic ( that`s why they`re visiting your website..) came out. It also pleases search engine spiders (crawlers) to see that your website is updated often. They will update your site more often in the index. Search engines love that !

  • Never, ever use “black hat” SEO. “Black hat” SEO is optimizing your website with things to trick the Search Engines. Some examples of the “black hat ” SEO:

    1. Title spamming. Place noumerous same keywords in your .

    2. URL cloaking. When someone redirects SE crawlers to a site totally optimized for them, but a regular sufer is redirected to a completely different website.

    3. Using hidden text. This one is one of the most common. You simply change the color of your text to the color of your background.

    4. tag spamming. Same as .</p> <p>Keep in mind that search engines evolve daily, so if you saw someone succeed with this kind of tricks, his site will eventually get banned from search engines –> “Good bye business”. Search engines hate that!</p> <p>Be honest, and work hard, results will come, I guarantee . </li> </ul> <p>So much for the on-page optimization factors. Generally, you want to make a website that is easy to read, update it often with fresh content and don`t use tricks.</p> <p>As much as these factors are important, they won`t boost your website rank from 150000000000 to 1,2,3,4,5… and that`s the thing that I`ve learned from Brad Callen. Thanks …:)</p> <p>It`s the off-page optimizaion factors that will generate tremendous results… read on.</p> <p><b><u>2. The off-page optimization factors</u></b></p> <p>Very important on Yahoo and MSN, even more important on Google.</p> <p>The off-page optimization factors are factors that your website is not directly involved in.</p> <p>The golden rule here is: “Make other websites link to yours !”</p> <p>You see, Search Engines, especially Google, developed an an algorithm that gives your website more importance if other websites link to it. very simple, it`s like elections. Whoever gets more votes wins. so, start working on your links from other sites.</p> <p>It can be a very long work, but you can really speed it up with software such as Arelis or SEO Elite</p> <p>Here`s one trick that I`ve learned from Brad to exchange links with hundreds of relevant websites without having to search for their contact information and sending the E-mails with link exchange proposals:</p> <p>Google (exactly): YOUR KEYWORD “please also suggest my link to the linkpartners.com directory”<br /> Just replace YOUR KEYWORD with …well.. your website`s main keyword, or even its category.</p> <p>you can also visit a new website called linkmetro.com. They have an interesting concept for exchanging links. Personally, I use it.</p> <p>The other thing that I`ve learned, and probably managed to succeed because of it, is THE ANCHOR TEXT</p> <p>The anchor text that points to your website from the other one should always be your keywords that you want to rank high. So when you fill out link exchange forms, your link should look something like this:</p> <p><b><u>YOUR MAIN KEYWORD, YOUR SECONDARY KEYWORD</b></u><br /> …your website features, benefits, special discounts…etc….</p> <p>This is probably the most important factor that Google counts when it ranks your website.<br /> Note: if you have a quality site with unique content, other websites will start to link to you without a link-back requests. This is also great, so make your content a quality one.</p> <p>The third thing that is also very important is the Google pagerank of the site (page) that is linking to you. We will learn about Google pagerank in the upcoming article (..in about 2 days..).</p> <p>If you liked the article, feel free to distribute it on your website, as long as all of the links remain intact.

Do you use Google? How about Yahoo? And why would you choose one over the other? To some people these two giant companies might look like two peas in a pod, but they are not.

    Finding reviews for either company is not difficult. And many analysts have described each company as being formed from completely different models. Yahoo is most commonly described as a media giant. One look at the home page and you can see why. Not only do you find links to everything from a personals section to current news, but you also find advertisements. The folks writing code for that home page have been as busy as beavers!

    Google on the other hand does not do any of those things. In fact, Google is a little more difficult to define. On the surface, it appears to just be an internet technology company. Google does have advertising, but they are a lot more subtle about it. When you do a Google search, the results off to the right are really paid advertising. By not throwing that advertising in your face on the home page they keep it simple and very clean looking. Almost all technical evaluation would point to Google as being a better search engine, but ultimately the choice is up to you.
