Easy Ways To Get Your Web Site Noticed by Search Engines.
Almost everyone knows that when a person wants to know something
on the Internet they turn to search engines like MSN, and Google
to find what they are looking for. This makes it very important
for web site owners to know how to get their web sites ranked
well on search engines, so that the people doing the searching
can find their web site.
The first thing you should know is that the job of a search
engine is to bring up the web page, that is most relevant to the
search.
Search Engine Optimization isn't rocket science!
The job of the web site owner is to make their web site more
relevant than other sites. The other job they need to do is make
sure the web site gets submitted to search engines. Do those two
things and you are getting some attention well needed from the
search engines, the reward is free targeted traffic.
I wrote an my first article titled "The plug-in Profit Home
Business Review." Now I didn't know too much about writing
articles at the time so this happened to be dumb luck. After a
few weeks I did a search to find that my article got placed on
the first pages of MSN, GOOGLE and Yahoo, when I searched for
"plug-in profit site"( E-Commerce business). Surprised to see
that the article was ranked higher than hundreds of thousands of
possible sites, I looked into the reason for my article's great
success.
When you read the article you'll see that the article is
extremely related to the plug-in profit home business site. The
title after all was called "The Plug-in Profit Home Business
Review." The content is all about the program and mentions the
name of the program several times. To sum things up this is what
made my article step in front of my competitors.
I soon applied my new found knowledge into my own web site. I
built my web site around the keyword, "plug-in Profit site. I
made the title of my home page "plug-in profit home business
site" Now days you will see somewhere on the first pages of the
search engines internet5kincome.com when a search for "plug-in
profit" is done. You may even find my first article hanging
around. This proves that content is still king when it comes to
search engines! I will also add the title helps out a great deal
too!
In my efforts I made a mistake on my web page, I created a link
titled :"Can taking on-line serveys really make you money? Click
here to find out".
Notice the misspelled word serveys. While the rest of the world
spells surveys with a "U". I spelled this one word with an "E".
I am embarrassed to say it, but that mistake placed my site on
page 1 when a person searched for "on-line serveys" this winning
mistake brought a surprising number of free traffic.
I am amazed at how many people spell surveys with an "E"! (The
mistake has been corrected, but it is something you should know!)
When experimenting with search engine optimization, or SEO for
short. Track your web site's performance with a tracking
service. I use opentracker.net for my web site's tracking. This
service will show you where all your visitors come from.
If a visitor was referred by a search engine, obviously the
visitor did a search. The tracker will tell you what keyword the
visitor searched for. That keyword is something you should know,
so that you can build on it, to bring in even more traffic. You
may be surprised at what you find out from the web site tracker.
I was surprised that so many people spelled surveys wrong, but I
would have never found out if it wasn't for the web site tracker.
Experimenting with SEO is well worth the time. Set your sites on
what people are searching for, and build your web site around
those keywords, and you might find your web site on the first
page.
Understand that not all search engines will rank your web site
the same, try different search engines to see where your site
shows up. MSN.com is one of my favorite engines to use because
this site indexes web pages more often than others. This will
help you to see if your experiments work a little faster that
using the other top named search engines.
I hope to see your web site on the first page of the search
engines real soon.
