Website Search Engine Optimization For Search Engine Friendliness

I found another article on Search Engine Optimization (SEO). I know there are others who don't really practice its principle nor believe in it in growing their online business. However, the possibilities of implementing it for your website can't be totally ignored. After all, there must be a reason why some companies charge a lot for it! LOL ^_^ Anyway, I hope you enjoy the article I'm sharing...

Website Search Engine Optimization For Search Engine Friendliness

By Alan Lim

Website search engine optimization is the buzzword of the Internet. You can’t survive online without it! Understanding its concepts is crucial to your business growth!

The success of your website online largely depends on the level of visibility it enjoys. This will only happen with a robust and effective website search engine optimization program. There are many ways to accomplish this end objective.

Keywords

Keywords are those magic words which attract your site to search engines. These also guarantee good page rankings. Since these are an important component of website search engine optimization you need to ensure each page of your site has a good array of strategic keywords evenly spread out. Many experts conduct intensive keyword research programs which help to analyze which keywords are the most popular and can fetch you greater visibility online.

Copywriting

The content on your website not only needs to be interesting and related to the site theme, it also needs to be search engine friendly. Website search engine optimization relies on effective and search engine friendly copywriting to attract better page ranking online. Your website copy needs to exude professionalism while also ensuring that keywords are generously sprinkled in the articles. 
 
Meta tags and title

The title of your web pages is what will attract search engines to your site. That’s why it’s important that not only is the title interesting and catchy, but it also has relevant keywords in it. That way the search engine robots that crawl sites get to access your site instantly. Website search engine optimization is all about being accessible to search engines. Even your site Meta tags need to have these keywords well placed.

Knowing your competition

Many website search engine optimization service providers will do an in-depth competitive analysis. This is because in order to stay ahead in the competition you need to know where you stand. That’s why it helps to find out which keywords are currently being used by your immediate competition. It will also enable you to learn from their mistakes and fine tune your site optimization efforts better.

Manual submission

Many providers will also manually submit your site to search engines online. Through this they are able to effectively and actively propagate your website to the web. Website search engine optimization methods involve fine tuning of content, building more links as well as involving tools like PPC etc. to drive more traffic.

Link density

The page rank and popularity of your site will depend on the number of links as well as the kind and quality of links on your site. In fact most of the popular search engines of today distinguish successful and not so successful sites by the density of links on their sites. Therefore as part of your website search engine optimization program you need to ensure active procurement of associated links to your site. By improving the link density you get to improve the relative placement of your site in search engine results.

High quality links

It isn’t just sufficient to have a large volume of links to your site. It’s also equally important in website search engine optimization to have good quality links from reliable partners. Therefore, it is essential to test the strength and effectiveness of each link before incorporating it into your site.

So Who Needs Some Straight Talk?

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Straight Talk for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

In this day and age when people are brought closer together by technology, it is utterly important to be constantly in touch with friends and loved ones via mobile phone. True, we always want to be connected. But admittedly, sometimes, this can really cost quite a fortune. What we all want is something that has everything you need.

We surely want no contracts, no surprise bills and no credit checks. We want great nationwide coverage and excellent reception/connectivity. We want to be able to choose gadgets from trusted phone manufacturers like LG, Motorola, Kyocera, Nokia and Samsung.

They say mom knows best so I had to check this one out when she pointed it out to me.  An “All You Need Plan” for heavy phone users with 1,000 minutes, 1,000 texts and 30 MB of web data. I'm not really a heavy phones user, but the other plans sounded really good -- an Unlimited Monthly service for only $45, and includes calls, text, picture messaging, and web. Or imagine unlimited calls, text, picture messaging and web for a whole year, for only $499.00! Imagine the amount of money you could save switching to Straight Talk.

I love the idea that I will feel richer with Straight Talk because I can cut my cell phone bill in half. You have to be crazy to be on a contract these days when you can get everything you need without one. Plus, Straight Talk International Long Distance Service has a flexible prepaid calling service that enables you to make international calls from your home, cell or office phone at low rates. Amazingly cool! So what are you waiting for? Make the switch today and go ahead call a friend without worrying about the costs.

Search Engine Optimization Vs. Search Engine Marketing: What's The Difference?

I found this really interesting article that I wanted to share here. I do believe it is somehow worth knowing about SEO or SEM as they're part of strategies that help drive traffic to your site. What's the difference? Here's a pretty good explanation...

*******

SEO and SEM are two terms that are commonly bandied about by webmasters. Sometimes it seems as if the two terms are used almost interchangeably. But is there a difference, and if so, what is it?

In fact, there is a difference. SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. It refers to anything you do to your page to make it more search engine friendly. SEM stands for Search Engine Marketing. It forms a sort of umbrella term that can refer to anything you do to get your page ranked higher in search engines, from search engine optimization to requesting backlinks to submitting your URL to search engines.


It's important to know the difference between the two when you're shopping for SEO or SEM services. If the company doesn't specify what services it offers as part of its "SEM Package," then don't hesitate to ask. And don't hand over any money until you know! Some companies may mean nothing more than submitting your website's URL to a few search engines, and you can do that yourself.

Whenever possible, get a list of specific things they plan to do to help surfers find your website. Will they submit your URL to search engines? Get a list of the search engines they plan to submit it to. ("Yahoo!, Google, and 100's More!" doesn't count.) Will they keyword optimize your site? Be sure to ask if they include META and ALT tags.

Ultimately, whether a company uses "SEO" or "SEM" doesn't matter as much as what services they offer. Ideally, SEM would be more valuable than SEO, because it would include SEO as well as other marketing strategies. But this is not always the case. As we've noted before, it can be simply a code for "stick your URL is a few search engines and be done with it." Look for reputable websites, and ask for specific services they offer. Once you've done your homework, you will be able to make an informed decision between SEO and SEM and march forward proudly, knowing that you truly got the best value for your money.

Nerd Surfing Anyone?

All righty! I already made a post about this on my main blog. I just thought I'd share it here as well. Nerd surfing or "nerfing" as people fondly call it is simple. It gives you additional 10% credits when you surf at the participating sites. First, you need to be a member of the sites below:


Image and video hosting by TinyPic


free manual traffic exchange


Next, you want to make sure that you update your profile with your CTP username. Then, you want to surf all 4 "Nerd" sites owned by TimTech LLC. How do you know it's activated? See the sample below...


The pair of glasses would all be in green. It says "You're good to go!" in the above example. That means you're surfing all 4 sites at the same time. Now, enjoy your "nerfing!" Oh, and watch out for the 'bonus' badge. You'd know when it's due for claiming.. just watch the pair of glasses. Well, that's it! Because life is simple... nerfing is the way to go! ^_^

Till next blogging time... ta-tah! :D
