Five Ways To Win The Favor Of Search Engines


You’ve got a cool new website with all the works: cool Flash
presentations, eye-catching colors, informative text,
easy-to-use layout, and an interesting topic. You think your
site is amazing, and you know that others will agree with
you. If only they know it exists.

How do you make your website known? How do you make
yours stand out among millions of others? You can spend
lots of money on advertisement, but that will not work if
you don’t have the money to spare on advertising. So what
do you do? Make search engines work for you, that’s what!

Google, Yahoo, MSN, Lycos, Altavista - you want to be at
the top of their results list. The higher your site is in a
search results page, the better chances that it will be
visited. The science behind making your site a popular
search result is called Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
Don’t worry, though - even if SEO is referred to as a
science, it is not all that complicated. You just need to
take note of a few things, and before you know it, your site
will have more visitors than you could ever dream of.

Here are five tips to ensure that your site would be a
favorite of search engines all around the cyber world.

1. Give importance to substance over appearance.

Do you want to share your knowledge on a subject that you
have authority on? Do you want to sell products? Do you want
to build an online shrine for your favorite actress?
Whatever topic you have chosen for your website, make sure
that you are able to give useful information on it. Search
engines work by scanning sites for keywords. They search
text and completely ignore everything else. So if you have
made your site rich in colors, don’t forget to make it rich
in content as well. After all, a beautiful layout can make
people look, but relevant content is what will make them
stay. Remember, in this day and age: content is king!

2. Know your topic well

If you know much about your topic, you will know what people
usually ask about it, and what they ask about it is what
they will type in the search bar. When writing the content
for your website, put yourself in your other people’s shoes,
people who will be your target audience or market. Know the
possible questions they might have about your topic, and
give answers in your site.

3. Learn from the best

Take time to browse and read sites that get lots of visitors
and have the same topic as yours. Take note of any recurring
phrases in these sites’ text. These phrases are most likely
keywords. Incorporate them in your own site’s content. Don’t
saturate your site with keywords, though. You don’t want to
sound redundant to your site visitor. A 3% density level
would be enough. In searching for the right keywords, use
Overture’s services. It may take quite some time, as it is more
of a trial-and-error method, but the results are conclusive, and
a pattern can easily be observed.

4. Submit…and re-submit

You will never get a certain job if you don’t send in your
application for it. The same thing applies to SEO. If you
want your site to be recognized by search engines, then go
out of your way to register your site with them. After a
couple of weeks, search for your site by putting in the
keywords you used in your content. If your site is still not
coming up in the search results, do not give up, and just
re-register and resubmit your site. It’s possible that your
initial registration was discarded without being processed.
This usually happens because a lot of submissions are being
done everyday.

5. Constantly update your site

This can’t be stressed enough: search engine spiders love
sites which constantly change their content. You can’t build
your site and expect it to last forever without any updates.
There will come a time when those search engine spiders
would stop fetching your site for query requests. Here’s a
tip: integrate a blog program in your site. Blogs have a
user-friendly interface that allows easy updates.
