Winning the Search Engine Game
Assisting others in increased search engine results
Many search engine submission services want to make you believe that they have the only answer to search engine optimization. The search engine game, like any other game, is easy to play and win once you know the rules of the game.
Search engines are constantly changing and being updated as more and more people learn the tricks to better search engine results. Today we'll teach you how to get better search engine results with very little effort on your part.
One of the main things the search engines look for is links from other sites to your site. The search engine logic has been that the more sites and site owners that link to you the better your site must be. This is obvious when we think of major sites such as Microsoft who have thousands of sites linking to it.
How do you increase links to your web site? There are many options that will increase links to your site. Exchanging links with other web site owners, offering an affiliate program or creating an award program are a few excellent ways to increase links to your web site. With other site owners linking to you, your search engine results will continue to increase.
Now let's discuss keywords. Many people do not understand the importance of key words and how to correctly use them. The search engines do not take kindly to web sites who have randomly added keywords that have absolutely no relevance to the web sites content.
If you are going to use a keyword make sure that keyword appears on your web page. The more times the keyword appears on your page the higher your results. However, again search engines do not take kindly to keywords that just "appear" on your page without any relevance to the page. Try and incorporate as many relevant keywords into your actual page as possible. Also don't forget phrases, if you're going to use site, as a keyword use website and web site as well, people will search for different variations of words.
Remember, if you want to increase your search engine results increase the number of sites that link back to you and include a select amount of relative keywords to your site and you'll see your search engine results and hits continue to grow.
