The art of "Page Positioning"

Written by Janette Moran


Page positioning is an art and a job all-its' own. It is a tedious and boring, yet equally justifiable. Page positioning is a necessity for any web site that needs to be noticed. And vital for search engine ranking.

Search Engines Ranking high / scoring high / getting a good placement, all meanrepparttar same thing. All search engines judgerepparttar 128417 pages submitted to them based on their own criteria. Even with all ofrepparttar 128418 variation, many principles seem to hold true. Most search engines use software to quickly scanrepparttar 128419 pages it receives. Withrepparttar 128420 information gathered it tries to categorize your site according to repparttar 128421 search engines data bank. When a person searches for specific words,repparttar 128422 system "pulls-up" from its' data bankrepparttar 128423 most relevant sites that corresponds to these words. It does this by matchingrepparttar 128424 same words used in repparttar 128425 search torepparttar 128426 words on a page. The sites that contain these words with most frequency, and inrepparttar 128427 correct places, are favored over other pages.

But What isrepparttar 128428 "right frequency" & "correct places" By frequency we do not intend for you to go and make your site read every other wordrepparttar 128429 same. What we meant inrepparttar 128430 previous paragraph, was that you should includerepparttar 128431 words you think most frequently will be used to search out your page, AND that of your competitors. Use these words as "Key Words" to insert intorepparttar 128432 image text, body, Meta Tags, Title and various places of your web-site.

"Key Words" Key words may well berepparttar 128433 most important factor behind any determined web site. They getrepparttar 128434 attention ofrepparttar 128435 viewer, keep them reading, help place your site in search engine searches, and bring yourepparttar 128436 added traffic you desire. It is important that you choose your Key Words with care. They are not to be treated lightly. It is better that you not use them at all, than to underestimate them. Key words can be chosen in many ways. However I strongly recommend using repparttar 128437 method that follows. 1) First, take some time to carefully compile a list a words you feel strongly represent your business / web site. They should reflect what you believe are words most likely searched by your current / future clients, prospective clients,repparttar 128438 general public, and even skeptics or bashers of your trade. Include all ofrepparttar 128439 words and phrases you think these same people would use to seek out your competitors, and likely employed tradesmen or trades women. 2) Narrow this list down to approximately 20 entries of 2 - 3 word phrases that use as many ofrepparttar 128440 words you chose as possible. For instance a cookie baker with a list containing words such as chocolate chip, raisin oatmeal, batter, dough, experts, cookie, gourmet, dozens, etc., etc., can maximizerepparttar 128441 potency of his "Key Words" by using them together to make catchy and reusable phrases. Like "Gourmet cookie dough" or "Cookies buyrepparttar 128442 dozen." If kept even shorter between 2-3 words you can use them allrepparttar 128443 time when submitting your page manually torepparttar 128444 engines. They will usually ask for additional descriptive words, or key words. 3) Check them "Key Words" out with a key word generator that counts search frequency / popularity of "Key Words." They can help you determine just how often people actually search these words. Keep onlyrepparttar 128445 most popular or highly searched words. 4) Search repparttar 128446 "Key Words" yourself. There is no point in trying to tweak your page out to one word only to find that soooooo many other people have too there is no way for you to compete with 1 billion other sites generated in that search. Look forrepparttar 128447 miracle phrase. The break inrepparttar 128448 clouds. The one no body has thought of ... but everyone is searching. How? Well, every time you search and it is truly a good and popular key word, or phrase, butrepparttar 128449 results returned contained mostly unrelated sites ... this isrepparttar 128450 perfect "key Word" choice. Use this and any like it to place into your Title, Header, Meta Tags andrepparttar 128451 like. They should however be tailored to each individual pages needs.
