Top 5 Search Engine Optimization Tips and Tricks

Need to focus on what the search engine work? London (Liam Scanlan) is the "efficient site 12 used: non-professional search engine optimization of primer" (The 12 Habits of Highly Effective Websites: A Primer on Search Engine Optimization for Non-Technical Executives) author of the book. He SiteLeads.net the founder of Internet consulting firm. He shared with us five simple search engine optimization tips.

1. To find a good domain name. Scanlon suggested that, if the domain name associated with your product, it's better. "If you sell online, handmade dolls, but your domain name is acmeproducts.com, then this will not help the search engine." Do not forget you can register many domain names. In order to avoid the search engines ignore those who would link to the website domain name issue, the link directed to different pages, so visitors will be able to introduce site. This can help you improve search engine rankings.


2. Note the title. Scanlon said that small businesses in search engine optimization process is most often committed the most serious mistake is to use the title or ignore incomplete title. He also said that most of the site is to use the traditional HTML editor to create hypertext, and it will not show weakness in Web site creation process. Insert page title in search engine search process, the easiest way to attract it, because search engines will search the title page of each site. Let us once again the event doll example, if you buy the doll buyers group orientation, then the page title as the "Barbie" than "p. 7" much better.

Three. Use of key words. Yan. Laiensiji (Yan Lyansky) production and distribution company Downtube folding bike, with annual sales of 3 million U.S. dollars. His company's Web site by integrating all the key words, so that in Google search engine rankings up. "You can not once again use the 'folding bike' that words like that, people would not imagine what will happen," said 37-year-old Laiensiji. But the company still put the word into the product name, description, page title and all other consumers will not feel bored seeing the place.

4. Contact us to be obvious. To prevent spam, some companies link their approach to the picture presented in a way that could have been avoided by some process Naqu add a new email address. This is a mistake, Scanlon said. "You should give your contact information on the Internet is obvious, especially if you want your website ranking up in a certain area." Xuanzewenzi file displayed in contact and made the email address link.

5. More links. Your web site and other sites Links with the industry the more the higher your ranking, Scanlon said. Laiensiji by creating a web page, with his bike's characteristics and comparison of his competitors, and add on his competitor's website link, thereby strengthening his search results. He said: "When people search for my competitors, this page will help me greatly improve my page rank."

How do search engines crawl your site faster

Very large network in the world; all the time generating new content. Google's own resources are limited, when faced with almost endless when web content, Googlebot can find and crawl the contents of a certain percentage of them. Then, we have to crawl to the content, we can only index part of it. URLs like the website and search engine crawlers as a bridge between: In order to be able to crawl your site's content, the crawler needs to be able to find and cross the bridge (that is, to find and crawl your URLs). If your URLs are complex or lengthy, the crawler had to repeatedly take the time needed to track the Web site; if your URLs are structured and directly to your unique content, the crawler can learn to focus on your content , not in vain spent crawl space or a different page URLs to crawl to the guidelines is ultimately just the same repetitive.


In the above slide, you can see some of our counter-examples should be avoided - these are real examples of URL exist (although their names because of privacy reasons have been replaced), these examples include the URL to be black and coding, redundant arguments disguised as part of the URL path, unlimited crawl space, and so on. You can also find the website to help you straighten out the maze and help them better and faster crawlers find your content for a number of recommendations, including:

1) remove the URL in the user parameters
That do not impact on the content URL in the parameters - such as session ID, or sort parameter - can be removed from the URL, the cookie was recorded. By adding this information cookie, and then 301 redirect to a "clean" URL, you can keep the original content, and reduce the number of URL contents point to the same situation.

Control of infinite space Does your site have a calendar table, the above links to numerous past and future dates (each a link address is unique)? Your website address whether adding a & page = 3563 parameters, you can still return 200 code, even if not so many pages? If this is the case Di, then on your web site has been called the "Pavilion of Infinity" This Qing Kuang Hui Langfei crawling robot and the bandwidth of your site. How to control the good "infinite space", refer to some skills, right here.

2) prevent the Google crawler to crawl pages that they can not handle
By using your robots.txt file, you can stop your login page, contact information, shopping cart and other reptiles can not handle the page was crawled. (Reptiles are mean, and shy of his famous, so generally they do not own "add to cart the goods" or "Contact Us"). In this way, you can spend more time crawling reptiles on your site that they can handle the content.

One man one vote. A URL, a content
In an ideal world, URL, and have a one to one correspondence between the content: Each URL corresponds a unique content, and each paragraph can only be only a URL to visit. Closer to this ideal situation, the easier your site will be crawled and included. If your content management system or the current site to establish it more difficult to achieve, you can try to use the rel = canonical element to configure the URL you want to instruct a particular content.

Flash Website Search Engine Optimization

Search engines may not like the FLASH animation, it is difficult to identify the contents inside the FLASH animation. However, a few years ago corporate website especially popular sites such FLASH page, and now these sites also abound. With the past two years search engine optimization for popular, many business owners began to slowly realize the importance of search engine optimization, seo companies choose to do more and more. Yes, when we labored with the FLASH with the business owners to explain the site is not suitable for optimization, additional optimization, site must be revised, many business owners are not happy about it. Well, get this site in the end how to do seo do? More than six months after my observation and conclusion, I found the two methods can not only keep FLASH animation, you can both search engine optimization, improve website ranking.

Both of these methods may only be counted one of the practice is hidden text at the bottom of FLASH. However, a semi-hidden, one for the whole hide. The first is a semi-hidden, that is, below the text FLASH is visible only to the first screen to retain FLASH, so that visitors not see the movie first saw the text below. New web some time ago have taken this approach, he would first screen the site to place a large FLASH, and then the entire text content of the website on the bottom of FLASH, the first screen only shows the site navigation. Thus, when visitors first enter the site, to see just a large FLASH, click on the bottom of the navigation, the site will jump to the text below to the Department.

The second refers to FLASH hidden beneath all the text is not visible. Some will want the animation, but can not accept the place in the animation website under the important pages. In such cases, some people do not know how to do. In fact, we only need to do in the first method and little change on it. In the first approach is based on the slider will be set to hide the page, so that visitors can not see the text under the FLASH animation. Of course, since the animation is designed to do under the text to search engines rather than visitors to see the page view you can not care about the U.S. too much, just be careful not to pile too many words can be appropriate. Made of ordinary web pages look the best, so everything looks natural point. As the color of the text or conventional visible color, is not hidden text, search engines will not be sentenced to cheat.

Domain Name Parking Practices

There are many ways by which you can make money on the internet and domain parking is one of the simple ways. You can park your domain while you are building your site. This is an efficient way to set your site while it is being built and also avoid disappointing your visitors while site is being built. There are some domain owners who just park their domain and do not develop their site, with money being their main motive. Companies can also make use of domain parking as one of the options to divert its website traffic to another website if its own.

You need to have the knowledge on what type of domain you could park. Creative and effective thinking and planning can help you to buy domain names with this idea and capitalize on them. If you come up with a new idea and you realize that there is no domain name ( i.e. with .com) for it, then you can immediately park the domain name and earn from it. On doing so, the probability of that you being approached by someone who very badly needs that name is high, and they can even pay you a very huge amount for it. Try filling the landing page with suitable ads or affiliate marketing ads or banners, and it can give you regular income (monetized domain parking). You can also have your internet presence by just having a page with "under construction" or "coming soon" words on the page. This can help you to park the web page before it is ready to launch (demonetized domain parking). Never delay too much in buying a domain name, because by the time you decide on buying one, someone else could possibly have owned that domain name and capitalizing on it already.

Incase you are not looking out to make money, just sign up for some affiliate programs, build up a webpage and maintain the page and fill it with advertisements. You can also opt to share the profits when you work with some company who can manage it for you.

The domain owner is generally paid depending on the number of links that have been visited (like pay per click), and also how these clicks have been beneficial. The intent of the visitor can be found out based on the keywords the visitor uses for the domain name.

There are many companies who do domain parking and related management activities for you. They pay you some percentage of the fees. Some give you a very cheap domain registrations and also with some incentives to gear you up to join.

There are numerous domain parking options available for you. Incase you are not able to come up with any catchy phrase, just choose some name that is similar to some other company or competitor, which can give you high chances of hits.

You can also choose to opt for expired domain, if you wish to. As these domains used as websites earlier and expired, still hold on to some inbound links. Such domains on reusing can start with more visitors initially. When the site operators and the search engines remove the earlier available inbound links of the site, the number of visitors can go down gradually.

In the midst of making money, you always need to be quite careful, with some people in the market who do unethical business practices. They can go to the extent of redirecting the homepages to the domain that is parked so that people tend to click that domain that is parked. Always be alert with the black hat practices that some people follow to get on the top or make money is a shorter period. Do focus in reading the fine prints since some scams out there can benefit these domain parking company rather more than what they benefit the individuals.

Please Note: Domain parking practices is other wise known as domain squatting or cyber squatting to some people and there are companies who charge against people who domain park against their brands or brand names which they consider as their sole intellectual properties. ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) handles complaints regarding domain parking scams.

Does Changing ip Effects Domain Search Engine Rankings?

The answer is not YES or NO :), it depends

Changing IP has less impact on SE rankings and it can be undergone through ethical promotion in short time.Now Search engines are smart enough to find the change and to find why. You don't have to worry about it.

But, before changing you need to check out the below conditions

(1) your new host should not have loads of banned ip's because of spamming and you should not end up on one of those ip's, it will effect your rankings for sure

(2) your new host should not be often down, this will definitly have an impact on your rankings, check out the uptime before you host

(3) your new host should not ban spiders to save bandwidth, this can have an effect on search engine ranking

Now Google offers domain name registration through Google’s Apps partnered with GoDaddy and eNom, Google users can spend $10 for a 1 year private domain registration. For now Google offer, .com, .net,.org, .biz, and .info and we can expect more to come on the line, so i believe you dont have to worry about "changing ip effet ranking" when you go for Google, you can get fresh IP :)

Wordpress by default has some search engine friendly setup but we need to edit some part of the code and add plugins to make it more search engine friendly and the plugins will help us to do the work easier and better. Below are the tips to create search engine friendly wordpress blog

(3) Most importantly do add alt attribute for logos and banner, i see most of the blogs miss to implement this technique or alt attribute are not unique. To solve this you can try "Custom Header" plugin and enter HTML codes for each posts and pages
(4) Permalink a very important part that helps to create search engine friendly URLS. In wordpress admin you can find "Permalinks" under option. In this you can notice "Custom structure", you may try adding this tag /%postname%/
(5) Create and configure .htaccess file and place the below code

RewriteEngine OnRewriteBase /RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-fRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-dRewriteRule . /index.php [L]

Save and upload in root and confirm that .htaccess file is been enabled in your server and your done
(6) If your theme doesn't have archive section, don't miss to add because new visitors to you blog may also like to read your old posts, so try adding the code to your theme
(7) Again "Popular tags" one of the very important part for blog and seo which helps to show visitors and search engine to the importance of blog posts and subjects. The follwoing code will show tags popularity by size
(8) Intall "Recent post" plugin and activate. This plugin helps to retrieve list of the most recent posts for your visitors
(9) Add "Google Sitemaps" to the plugin folder and activate . Set write access to the root server and then go to options >> Google sitemap and then click "Build sitemap manually" link and this creates site map and as you add new post xml file gets updated automatically with new posts URL.
(10) Add this sitemap.xml file to Google and Yahoo Webmaster tool so that spider will crawl the URL on regular basis
(11) Configure and add Google Custom Search and Google Analytics

Does Google treat all links Equally?

This is a question many think about when they deal with SEO. Does Google treat all links equally? . I will say a big NO.

There are different types of links, search engine algorithm evaluates and ranks. Here they go,

Internal links and External links - Both links are treated differently. If the External links are bad neighborhood sites then there are chances for your site to be dropped in search engine listing. Internal links spreads link juice according to the number of times the pages are interlinked.

Relevant links and irrelevant links - If your website link to irrelevant theme site then there are possibilities for your site to rank low.

Paid links or purchased links - Google and few search engines do not encourage Paid links that helps to pass link juice and this is considered as violation of Google's webmaster guidelines. As well all Paid links are not considered as violation. There are few solutions like adding no follow attribute to the link and by redirecting the link to a page that has been blocked by robots.txt.

Anchor text HTML Links - Within the site the HTML links with Anchor text has the most value and passes good amount of link juice.

Image Links - within the site Image links with most suitable and relevant ALT attribute gets the second level value and link juice.

JavaScript Links - As per the latest update Google started crawling these links but gets the third level value and link juice.

At this point, as far as links are concerned it plays vital role in both on-page and off-page optimization. So start planning before you go with the types of links.

Secrets Behind Link Building

On reading this post you should be able to do link building with simple steps that I believe should help you do effective link building. For a natural link simulation most of your back links should adhere to the following strategies:

Your targeted keywords need to vary a lot in anchor. Limited number of “click here” should help you to have good link building. When it comes to English websites, it is commonly accepted that more weightage (not the page rank) is got from links of related pages. Try not to have the back links all over the footage of the site or at one particular location. Try spreading it over the page, like top of page, or within the text, navigation, etc.

Never try to place hundreds of link for a new site on the very first day. Gradually increase the number of links. This normally relates to the number of links a site gets. Hence if a site has an average of 20 links per day, then do not try to increase it to 200 links suddenly. Chances of being banned from Google are high. Focus on quality not to the quantity links. Having most of your back links from the adult sites or casino sites or pharmacy sites is not recommended and such sites are known for spam.

Google tends to keep a track of all the IPs, checks your links coming from differnet C Class Ips or Not. So see to that all the links to your site comes from different websites. Always have a good combination of links from new and old sites. Reciprocal links are a good option for back links (Yahoo and Bing (Former MSN), but too many of them can be a problem too. 3way linking is a good option. Do not make the mistake of underestimating the back links to your internal pages. Since SEO is done for your internal pages, have the back links done for these pages too. Use varied anchor for these internal pages too both as inbound and outbound links.

Directories need to do some extra work on the links that you already have. Such directories need to be opted. Only a few selected directories like ODP and Yahoo are trustworthy. Other directories that might look good can even cause much problem to your links. So you need to be careful while submitting to directories. The time limit of back links seems to play a crucial role, and this is taken into serious consideration by the Google Sand box filter. So focus on links to be rented on long-term basis as far as possible.

Google tends to devalue the back links that come from links that could have words like Advertisements and sponsors. So be alert while you look for back links from similar links. Google is seen to use the advanced relation algorithm and the co-citation system in its algorithm. Hence we need to be careful when we choose our back links. Do not have your links from the pages that are with bad neighborhood and also the sites that they themselves link to such type of sites.

There are numerous factors that Google takes into consideration – like the IP Address, domain name, written language of the site, etc. Apart from these it is also very necessary to show the search results in the Google country specific searches. So be very cautious in deciding the language of the site when you design it for Google.

Go through the above points very carefully and recheck your website and if any found in your website, rectify them. If you continue with those mistake, they could harm your website at any minute.

Strategies that get you links:
A method where content is considered very important and also gets its links naturally is called link baiting. Any link that you have due to your content is considered in this type

Link submission directories:
There are many link builders and SEOs who focus on link building and directory submission. We have different types of directories: pay-for-inclusion, reciprocal required, free and niche directories. And we do have specialists working on each of these directories. There is a huge list of free seo friendly directories available for submissions. And about the reciprocal directories, we have both the brokers and non-brokers

Submission of Articles:
Try writing articles having links and have them in the resource page of your site. You can also pay someone to have the articles written for you and use some specialist to submit them in to the directories

2way and 3way links:
The old and a good way to get links – I link to your site and you link to my site. This will be helpful if you have around 50 plus sites, which can help you to give and take most relevant links. And remember the rule: its always that you contact people and they do not contact you first.

Get links from your own websites:
This is the best way to get links in case your website had lots of relevant pages

Alert with Link Vault:
By this method you get mostly footer links and low quality links, try avoiding link vault in your site with red flag

Subscribing to high page rank sites:
It is also possible for you to rent pages with high page ranks ( 5-9) for various prices But remember to rent only relevant sites. Renting too many sites of high PR is not preferred

Avoid Search Engine Spamming:

Search Engines are used to provide the most accurate results for your search queries. Still people have been trying to play with search engines. Search engines are regularly upgraded to provide better results and hence forth they cannot be misjudged if they give poor results due to bad search queries by the visitor. Still search engines are being developed to withstand all these tricks and provide the best of the results to the users.

Spamming of search engines includes all possible ways to cheat the search engines, and it is to be noted that these methods put tour website at a very high risk.These practices that give us false results and the websites that fool us are penalised and they tend to lose their ranks or are blacklisted and are removed from the indexes of the search engines and can also go into serious legal issues.

Points that are considered while identifying a website using spamming techniques or not :

· When a website consists of hidden links or hidden texts or invisible texts
· Pages that are not meant for people who visit, but are generated by machines for search engine activities.
· Pages that are not belonging to your main website, but instead are created for search engine purpose only.
· Websites that consists a huge amount of keywords in the content, but the page is of no value.
· When the visior(human) and the search engines are not viewing the similar content - cloaking
· Link spamming – linking with content that is of poor quality / less content
· Excess usage of cross-linking, keywords in the page
· Presence of site submission softwares that execute automatic URL submissions
· When you submit your page/site to a seach engine/directory more than once in a month
· Title tags, keyword meta tags that have words that are not seen anywhere in the page content
· Using same meta tag in multiple place (like when you use more than one title tag)
· Website pages are duplicated - same content, different file names

Decide - Spamming techniques or ethical search engine optimisation technique

Search Engines now in usage handle spamming very effectively and if any spamming is found, the website can even be unindexed. Incase if you are using any of these spamming techniques and these bring in a lot of traffic to your site, then be sure that this spamming technique is sure to be identified by the search engine or chances of any user also sending report about your tactics is high. This can very easily bring down your page rank and even be blacklisted and banned.

Ethical practices always assure you long-term successful results and do not let you lose anything. While the Spamming techniques give you short-term success with very high risk, and hence this is not recommended. Search engines take the pride on giving valid information and hence they never allow anyone to fool them, and if they identify anyone on doing this, they are sure to be taken out of their web presence.
