SEO Techniques to Generate Free Traffic
By: Jordan Lesiuk
1. The title tag is one of the most important elements of SEO, there is no point naming your page yellow banana if it is about a Edc Gold home based business. The title tag needs to relate to the page and the content on it, the more targeted the title is to your page the higher the chance of receiving targeted visitors.
The title tag should have key words within it but also be readable by a human, treat it like a headline.
2. When linking between pages try and use the same anchor text from one page to another. If you are trying to rank high for the keyword Edc Gold, then try and use this keyword as anchor text when linking between pages.
3. Make sure that the text within the title tag is also within the body of the page. It is unwise to have keywords in the title tag which are not contained within the body of the page.
Also add the same text for your h1 tag which is kind of like an internal title tag and the search engine robots look at this and can now tell that there is a relation between the title of your page and the headline.
You should also sprinkle the keyword throughout the page. Bolding the keyword's you are targeting is also recommended if possible. A good place to do this is within the headings.
4. One mistake that people can make is using the same title tag for all of their webpage's, don't do this as some spiders might think it is duplicate content and might not index the other pages.
5. The meta tags can be of some importance but try not to spam the tags with keywords as you can be penalized for this. SEO pros all agree that these tags are not as important today as they once were. I just place my headline once within the keywords and description tags.
6. Do not use doorway pages. Doorway pages are designed for robots only, not humans. Search engines like to index human friendly pages which contain content which is relevant to the search.
7. Site Map: A good menu system is really a site map. A well constructed menu system that is on each page and contains a link to very page on the website is all you need.
8. Title tags for text links. Insert the title tag within the HTML of your text link to add weight to the link and the page where the link resides. This is like the alt tag for images.
My site contains navigation menus on the left and right of the page. The menu consists of links not images. When you hover over the link with your mouse, the title of the link appears. View the source of this page to see how to add this tag to your links.
9. Describe your images with the use of the alt tag. This will help search engines that index images to find your pages and will also help readers who use text only web browsers
10. Submit to the search engines yourself. Do not use a submission service or submission software. Doing so could get your site penalized or even banned.
Here is the submission page for google: http://www.google.com/addurl.html
Submit only once. There is no need to submit every two weeks. There is no need to submit more than one page. Robots follow links. If your site has a nice link trail, your entire site will get indexed.
My site has a nice human friendly link trail which robots follow easily. All my pages get indexed without ever submitting more than the main index page once.
