Use keywords and meta tags to get the click!

Written by Steve Nash


Continued from page 1

- TITLE tag should be between 5 and 12 words

- Meta DESCRIPTION tag should be between 5 and 20 words

- TITLE and Meta DESCRIPTION should be different. Combine both to encourage someone looking at a busy page of search results to click your link, rather than someone else's.

- Meta KEYWORDS tag should be between 0 and 50 words

- HEADING Tags should be used, if possible (and these tags are used for ranking purposes instead of Meta DESCRIPTION tag, sometimes)

- Meta KEYWORDS tag should contain words that exist in TITLE and Meta DESCRIPTION tag (as well as in page content)

- Do not use too many COMMENT tags, or Image ALT tags, especially if you stuff them with keywords
