To arrive at
set of keywords that:Describe business correctly (are relevant) Attract traffic (are popular & are searched for) Have less competition (are relatively un-optimized for )
Steps
Step I: Lets start by saying that
for
keyword finalization of a web site
first step is to device
theme of
web site. The keywords then should be generated which are in sync with
themeing structure of
site. The home pages &
other higher level pages should target more general(main theme)keywords. The deeper pages (embedded in subdirectories or sub domains) should target more specific & qualified keywords.
Once
sites themes & sub-themes are done, lets start by looking for
keywords
StepII:
The finalization of
keywords for any given site can be done in
following way:
Generation of
seed keywords for
site (theme keywords).
Expansion of
seed keywords into key-phrases by adding qualifiers (sub theme keywords)
Generating a larger set of keywords by word play on
key-phrases generated in step II.(sub theme targeting)
Lets take them one by one:
SEED Keywords/Primary keywords:
The seed keywords can be generated by either of
ways mentioned below:
The client provides
terms he feels are relevant to his business.
The SEO firm generates
seed words by understanding
business domain &
business model of
client.
Some outside domain consultant provides them.
Another way of generating seed keywords is to look for
meta tags of
competition web sites.
WARNING: do not place any unnecessary emphasis on these tags. Use them just to generate you seed keywords list.
