The purpose of Search Engine Optimization is to dramatically increase visitation of potential customers to your website by achieving first page and ultimately a top three page rank in searches using keywords and keyword phrases that define your business and products.

Here are some dos and don’ts in SEO:

Dos

1. Submit your website to all search engines and directories just once. Repeated submission can get your site banned from the search engines.
2. Research your keywords thoroughly. You really cannot start optimizing until you have researched out your keywords and know how the optimization will play out.
3. Do develop strong, current, and unique content that is both keyword-rich and seen as valuable to your visitors.
4. Do develop two site maps of your site. One for visitors (that will also help the search engines) and one for the search engines.
5. Your website optimization should work for both search engine spiders as well as human visitors. An uncluttered layout, comprehensive intra-site navigational links and good content must be the metrics to define user operability. Search engines actually prefer what humans do, so keep your pages uncluttered and easy to use.

Don’t

1. Don’t spam the crawlers/robots/spiders by having hidden text/content e.g. hiding the keywords within the page with font color matching the background in the page.
2. Beware of irrelevant keywords. Search engines hate finding irrelevant keywords on your site-especially in your meta tags.
3. Don't settle for stock content. Take the time to develop custom content for your site. Don’t use manufacture descriptions unless you add your own descriptive content as well.
4. Don't give up on your SEO plan and don't obsess about PageRank. SEO takes time and patience. But do use Google Analytics and Google Webmaster Tools to learn more about your site and help Google (by far the world leader in search) understand your site.
5. Don't let broken links devastate your website, make sure all links are working good.

Some ways to do it is: brainstorm based on solution and customer needs, interview and survey customers, review current web analytics etc. use keyword tools Keyword optimization: title tags, headings, paragraph tiles, keyword in body copy, anchor text in links, in URL, image alt text, meta description tag. It is not wise to use lots of keywords in one page...2-3 keywords in page/article is totally enough! Search engine friendly website make it easy for search engine and they make your site easy to find (: -easy to findand revisit your site -easy to crewl links -site archidecture * quantity of quality inbound links, use text link in navigation, use text links between pages using keywords etc. Short URL is much better than long ones. Use HTML, XML sitemaps instead of javascript, ajax, flash site navigation, because it is easier for search engines to crawl your website. make sure that your site is discoverable via strong inbound links from other sites * be sure to make your site easy to navigate for search engines and other users Links Inbound links are very important for search engines...it is like electricity! Links build traffic to your site Inbound links from authorotative and relevant websites are key to strong traffic Use keywords in link text: Make money home; ~~Click here~~ Promote your links in social networks syndicate content via RSS Earn links with great content, that offers value for your readers.

Submit your website to all search engines and directories just once. Repeated submission can get your site banned from the search engines. <---- I don't think this is true. If resubmitting can get banned, we can easily use this black hat to kill our competitor. Agree? --------------------

I am familiar with writing keyword articles on my website and blog, but that is about it. I am trying to learn more and your list really helped. I do have a question though, in terms of submitting your website to search engines, what type of search engines do you mean? My website and blogs both appear on searches for Yahoo, Google, and MSN. I didn’t submit them manually. I am assuming my keyword articles helped, but I am not sure. I apologize in advance if my question is silly, but I am pretty new at this. Thanks. -------------------- Search all of Craigslist with the Craigslist Reader – Try It Free!

You can use hyphens (-) to separate multiple keywords. Specify Meta keywords in heading of document. Limit it to 15 to 20 words. Use text for navigation menu instead of using images or Java scripts. -------------------- [url= http://travel.justluxe.com/]luxury resorts[/url]
