An Inside Look At Search Engine Rankings

By: T. Detty Home | Internet-and-Business | SEO


A problem that search engines encounter often is the design of websites that purely use advanced programming such as C++, JavaScript or CGI. If the navigation links within your site are powered by these advanced scripts alone, the search engine will not be able to fully browse your site. You need to provide links done in basic HTML so that the engine can read your website.

It takes months for a website with a new domain name (.com, .org or .edu) to show up on search engines. Google has imposed an ageing delay on new websites so that it doesn't waste time on indexing websites that don't last long. If you want to change your domain name, I suggest you rethink your plan and use what you have instead. A cosmetic facelift of your existing web pages along with several good quality SEO articles will serve you better in the long run. After all, you will be working with what you already have. If you know all the ins and outs of your website, then it would be so much easier to revise, than replace, because of the familiarity factor.

Some internet marketers make the mistake of placing keyword density requirements above that of article quality. At first glance, it does make sense to optimize an article for your keywords rather than be concerned with artistic considerations or honest, from the heart writing. However, bear in mind that not everyone will buy your product or idea. You know that what you sell is sellable only to a certain target market. If you prioritize keyword optimization in your article rather than writing the article for the sake of the product you want to sell and for the information of your target audience, chances are you will attract buyers of another commodity that you do not have.

The keyword here is relevance. A person searching the internet for something he needs will filter out the search results by using the relevance criterion. My suggestion is, write the article for the sake of your product and for your target customers' information. Place the priority of keywords as a secondary consideration. It's all about relevance. I know that it would be a plus for you if you manage to pull in lots of traffic even though they don't want anything to do with your site. Believe me, misleading a person in the internet is a risky business. That person you mislead can hit back by starting-up an email brigade against your website.

Be specific with your keywords. Don't generalize. The biggest disadvantage of internet shopping is that customers are not able to scrutinize the product personally. What they usually do is find out from other sources what the product is all about, how it works, etc... When they decide to finally buy, they know what they're looking for and will mostly likely use a specific name brand as part of their search strings. Your keywords need to be able to match those strings in terms of number of words matched and how the order of those words match. Others will search for stuff by using its sub-categories. For example, when looking for bras, women need to spell out their torso and cup size.

So, the bra size can be a 36 B or a 36 C. Then there are colors to choose from like red, burgundy and black. A bit more specific is the bra classification. Is it a half-cup or a push-up, or is it a sport bra? With these factors in mind, you can conclude that a woman looking for a bra in the internet can type in black push-up bra 36-C". Do you have key phrases to match those search strings? Are the words in your key phrases arranged in the same order?

The final consideration is the literature where those keywords are embedded. If the article is just a jumble of words full of keywords, the search engine will most likely discard your website in favor of another. This will decrease the ranking of your website in the search results page. In worst case scenarios, they may actually ban your website from showing up in search results.
