Tips For Seo Friendly Press Releases

Tips For Seo Friendly Press Releases

With the emergent commercial nature of the web it is becoming harder to get quality one way inbound links. One of the best ways of achieving incoming links is by submitting free or cheap press releases that help you build link justice without spending lots of money.

An SEO press release is primary way to deliver news of new events taking place within your company. However, it should be written in such a way that it should rank high in the search engines for your keywords and thus get your website with important backlinks that will help boost it’s position in the search engine rankings.

While beginning to write a press release have a list of keywords. Long tail keywords generally will have less competition but collectively generate more total searches than highly competitive terms.

The next task is to frame the best title for your press release with in 100 characters limit. You should include some keywords in the title. The title of the press release is going to be in big bold letters on the search page. As the title gets massive exposure create a catchier headline when you submit a press release. Frame the summary in one or two sentences describing what your press release should contain. The summary should be with in 250 characters limit with secondary keywords included.

The body of the press release should contain minimum 300 words. Mention 1-2 quotes and 3-4 keyword phrases. Optimize the body of the press release with proper keywords, as the search engine will take bits of words from the body to display as description in SERP. Link your important search keywords to deep relevant pages in your site, not the front page. Put some bold or italicized tags for the keywords.

Choosing the topic is one of the tactful ways in writing press releases. Your topic doesn’t need to be stunning to be exciting. There can be many incidents occurring in your business or on your blog that can be considered as a topic. It can be a new product or service or program, new published report or e-book or interview, new strategic partnership or hire.

Always write the press release from a user point of view. Use the language that user employ when searching for or discussing topics related to your product. Do not stuff industry jargon. Include company logo for branding and insert photos, graphics and video links in your press release to show what you are writing about than simply trying to describe it in words.

Do not just dump your releases into submission sites; email it manually to media outlets and bloggers you think might be interested in it. If you’re publicizing a new product, send your release to newspapers in the company’s area. Content creation is about providing value.  Give your viewers something they can make use of and they’ll be certain to be back for more. best SEO Company

Essential Tips to Make Your Website User Friendly

Essential Tips to Make Your Website User Friendly

You don’t want your website guest to shift to another site in a jiffy just because he could not talk with you, right? In other words, you desperately need to make your website a user-friendly one. In other words still, your website design needs a face-lift to suit the rapidly growing demands and trends of the web world. Keeping a few points in mind while websites designing will be of immense help.

Communication: A world where people are now far more vociferous about their opinions, likes, dislikes and tastes and prefer posting them instantly on the web an easy way of communication with the website owner is what they will expect above everything else. Allowing your website visitor the minimum level of communicative comfort is ideally what you need to look forward to. Revamp it with options that will facilitate the users to easily talk with you or place an order or give their feedback since people nowadays widely prefer one to one communication.

Browser compatibility: A generous availability of alternative browsers like Mozilla, Netscape and Opera apart from Internet Explorer poses problem for the visitor as certain designs look different on different browsers. In this context your website needs a higher level of browser compatibility to allow the design to be viewed as equally good in every other browser.

Navigation: To generate an easy flow of navigation through the main page and the other links you need to have them clearly identified. See to it that returning to the main page requires just one click. For sites with over three levels, “breadcrumbs” can be a good option. They present your click path as: Home > Section 2 > Subsection B > Page 4.

Lesser use of graphics: Web design firms advise lesser use of graphics than text content so as to generate an easy and fast uploading procedure. Make sure that your web design services offer an usage of ALT Tags as well as CSS (custom style sheets) to let the text readers read the content easily. You will like your site to be able to be accessed by one and all, including the visually challenged, right?

Avoidance of Flash: Avoiding use of Flash while pepping up your website is advisable as flash animations are usually huge in size and it will be hugely time consuming for dial-up users to loading them. Also, search engine optimization service gets hampered as flash websites fail to be crawled by leading search engines, which blatantly indicates a negative signal in the reception of free traffic from the search engines. In fact, SEO services remains the foremost significant area of concern whenever you are planning to deal with web design services.

Once your website is equipped with the aspects that will make it user friendly you can expect a huge browser footfall and more loyalty out of them.

Search Engine Friendly Pages by Texas Marketing Firm

Search Engine Friendly Pages by Texas Marketing Firm

It may have been true in the movie “Field of Dreams,” but on the Internet the phrase “build it and they will come” is simply nonsense. You could have the best looking website with all the bells and whistles… heck, it could even be the best converting page ever, but it’s not going to do you any good if you don’t get any visitors in the first place.

There’s many ways of getting traffic to your website, but since my site is about search engine optimization and marketing, it’s only fair to talk about increasing traffic through the use of the Internet. Back then, all we knew was to submit our site to the search engines and that was it. There software to submit our site to hundreds and thousands of them. Now we know better. Now we know we don’t even have to submit our site and we’ll still get indexed… if done properly.

Major search engines use programs called crawlers or robots to index websites to list on their search result pages. They follow links to a page, reads the content of the page and record it in their own database, pulling up the listing as people search for it.

If you want to make your site indexed easily, you should avoid using frames on your website. Frames are like a black hole that search engines simply cannot read. There are many sites that are many years old with hundreds of pages but Google shows that they only have ONE page indexed. That’s because they used frames. Please avoid it like the plague. In fact, avoid it like it’s the Ebola Virus (what a terrible way to die!).

We love to see flash sites, but don’t ever have a flash-only website. Always have an alternative to it because search engines simply cannot read nor index flash files. By having an “HTML” version of it, you are increasing your ability to be indexed by the search engines.

Do not present important information in Flash movies or in images. When using images, ALWAYS use the “alt” tag to describe what the image is. It is also imperative to also name your files according to what is on the image. I.E. If the image is of a black dining table, you’ll want to name the file “black-dining-table.jpg” instead of “image45.jpg”.

Search engine robots can only read text on your source code so if you present important words in Flash movies and images rather than textual form, your search engine ranking will be affected dramatically.

Stop using improper HTML tags like <font> to style your pages. Use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) instead because they are more effective and efficient. By using CSS, you can eliminate redundant HTML tags and make your pages much lighter and faster to load.

Finally, for today’s tips, please avoid using navigation text that changes sizes upon a mouse-over. It is very tacky and annoying. Okay, this wasn’t search engine related, just a user-friendly advice.

This article was written by Dallas’ TexasSEO.com – Texas SEO is a Dallas-based web marketing and consulting company. We can help you improve your on-site and off-site optimization so that your website not only looks good to visitors but rank well for the keywords you need.

6 Tips for Se Friendly Web Design

6 Tips for Se Friendly Web Design

Here there are some tips for designing a web page SE friendly.

1. Choose the name of the URL based on the keywords – put 2-3 keywords separated by hyphens, NOT underscores. Search engines see hyphens as dividers and ignore underscores.

2. Insert a title for your web page. It should have around 60 (max 64) characters with spaces; some of the search engines will cut your title at this length, so keep it short. Put the most important keywords at the beginning. Try to not repeat words in title, if it is necessary only one word twice (maximum). You could insert plurals and different forms of the same word (ex: consulting, consultant, consultants). Check to see which form you should use (use Wordtracker or ask your SEO specialist).

3. Insert a meta description. Some of the search engines read it, as long as your web page is not listed in DMoz. It should be a concise description of your web page, not longer than 200 characters with spaces.

4. Insert a meta keywords tag. Don’t count on it, because most of the search engines do not use it. It should have between 10 and 20 keywords (max 900 characters with spaces) which describe your web page. These keywords should appear on your web page at least once. Do not repeat a particular word in the keywords tag more than three times. The search engines will penalize you! Use synonyms, misspellings and capital letters.

5. Create the content of your web page looking at your web page through search engines eyes:
– search engines download for reading only first 100k of the page – so INSERT the most important keywords at the top of the page
– use the keywords in H1/H2 tags, format them with Bold or Italic, or in links; this means that they are important
– search engines do not read java script – so DO NOT OUTPUT TEXT THROUGH JAVA SCRIPT
– search engines do not read images and flash elements – so images with text on them are useless. DO NOT INSERT images and flash elements at the top of the page. If it is necessary, add images with relevant ALT text. DO NOT USE FLASH INTROS.
– do not repeat a keyword many times in the page content. If it appears twice is enough. The keyword density should not be greater than 7-8% otherwise your web page will be penalized for spamming.
– the download page time is an important factor in SEO. Try to reduce the number and the size of the images and multimedia files as much as it is possible. The total web page size should be less than 30K (which means 8s downloading time on 56K connections). Reduce the number and size of CSS files – best – use 1 file with a size – take care at the broken links!

6. Do not use redirect pages except if they are SEO friendly, check online tools to find details about 301 redirection.

Search Engine Friendly

Search Engine Friendly

Frames are becoming a way of the past what with the use of DIV layers and the slow onset of incredibly flexible AJAX coding. The long and the short of it is that if you have Frames on your website then you are starting off at a disadvantaged position that cannot be truly search engine friendly no matter what you do. There are, however, some remedial fixes that will tie you over until you can redesign your site; yes I said redesign. The fix that I recommend is to use a noframes tag whereby you place another version of your web page inside of your framed page. This ‘backup’ page is what the search engines will view; here you can place relevant content and navigational elements so that the search engines can at least navigate portions of your site that are (hopefully) not framed.

There was a big brouhaha that Flash had become search engine indexable and you no longer had to worry about its search engine issues. Frankly, I have not seen the fruits of this ‘improvement’ to a respectable degree yet so I still consider it a kiss of death for websites designed solely in Flash. If you have a Flash-only website then I recommend one of these two options; one is to design an html version of your website and make the home page of your website html rather than Flash where you can then allow users to choose between html or Flash. The second option is to redesign the site so that it mixes both html and flash together. For example, this might mean implementing Flash amidst content on an HTML page as you would an image. I realize there are certain limitations to this option but if you can create a slick site in this manner then you will have the best of both worlds; clean search engine friendly content along with an interactive, multimedia feel. Just remember that the majority of relevant text should be in HTML format for the search engines to index.

Unfriendly dynamic URL’s are a common side effect of using a Content Management System that is not designed with search engine rankings kept in mind. Here are some examples of some unfriendly URL’s. Sample 1: http://www.mydomain.com/myproducts.php&354=prod333&subproduct

These URLs are problematic because a search engine may consider these addresses too complex to spider. Why too complex? Suffice it to say that the more complex the URL, the higher the chance that a search engine robot will consider the content too dynamic to read; it changes too often to be valuable to a search engine.

The way around these types of URLs is actually not so difficult; it may only require a small investment of time and money. The ‘time’ will be required when researching which URL fix is right for your system. The money may be required to pay a programmer to implement and test the new URLs. Here are how the URLs might look once they are fixed to be search engine friendly. Sample Fixed: http://www.mydomain.com/myproducts/354/prod333/subproduct/

These URLs are better because they do not include the extraneous characters that are so telltale on dynamic websites. In addition, the URLs are designed to appear like normal website directories when in fact they are dynamic URLs. It is vital that you minimize the length of the URLs that you use. Search engines may stop crawling a website if there appear to be too many subdirectories. The samples above show fixed URLs that have about as many subdirectories as I would allow (4).

Are the menus on your website spiderable? If not you may be hiding major areas of your website from search engine spiders and missing out on additional search engine rankings.

The fact is there are very few menus out there that a search engine will have a problem following, but there are definitely some worth avoiding. For instance do not use a JavaScript Jump Menu (example) as the core mode of navigation of your website; search engines cannot index this type of menu. Also be careful of Flash menus, they look slick but they will impede the progress of a search engine spider especially if they are the only means of navigation within your site.

The ideal menu would be text based and each text link would include the keywords you are targeting on the destination page. Setting up a menu with this much forethought requires that you determine the layout and content for your site before web design begins. Once you have a clear picture of the content for each page you can then research the keywords that are best to target per webpage. This essential keyword research can be done in house easily enough using systems-like keyword research tools that provide you with a glimpse into how your customers think by showing how many searches there are per month (or year) for a particular term.

Remember, almost every page within your site has a very real opportunity to gain a top ranking; all you need to do is ensure that the design, content and site structure is optimized. Ensuring that the menu is carefully thought out and designed is a crucial step for top rankings. Finally, if you are at all uncertain whether your menu is search engine friendly then be certain to back it up with a text menu in the footer of your page using the same keyword targeting principles noted above. A simple text menu may be less than desirable for you; in this case I recommend DHTML menus. These menus use text but in a manner that is quite appealing and very search engine friendly.

Sitemaps can dramatically help the visibility of your website by allowing search engine spiders easy access to all of the pages in your site. Place a link to the sitemap on every page within your site to ensure easy access no matter where a search engine or user enters your site. Just having a sitemap will help but how you build your sitemap will also play a role in how well the search engines catalogue it. For example, if you have a twenty-page website it would be ideal to create a sitemap where each page is represented by a title along with a short description. Ultimately, the page may be a bit long but it will have content that the search engines like to index and it will boost the relevance of the linked pages because the titles will accurately represent the content. So in effect, you will now have more than just a sitemap; you will have a table of contents for your site that has the potential of getting a ranking and provides an extra boost to the ranking worthiness of each page.

Search engine robots read a webpage from the top of the source code (the programming that made your page – see “view source” in your browser) all the way to the bottom. As a result, it is important to ensure that both of the following elements are found as close to the beginning of code as possible: A short sentence introducing the topic using the keyword targets you have chosen for the page. Your text menu and other navigational aids, or if this is not possible it would be even more beneficial to start with a paragraph or two of relevant content followed by the navigation. By placing this information near to the top of the page, you will promptly present the search engine robot with relevant text that backs up the page title and backlinks. You will also provide an immediate sitemap of sorts for the search engine to spider, which includes keywords relevant to each page.

With the odd exception Splash Pages are a kiss of death for a website because the home page (the first page seen when someone visits your domain), your most important page, is often converted into nothing but an excess entry point with little or no relevant content on it. Aside from reducing your chances for ranking, you are also making your visitors take another step to get to content or sales material in your site. Any additional steps you add will lessen the likelihood of a successful sale.

If you think you need to use a splash page then you need to talk to someone who will change your mind. No, honestly, give me a call if you want because there is nothing more painful to a SEO or search engine friendly web designer than to see a Splash Page in use. If, in the unlikely scenario your splash page is required, there are ways to make it slightly more search engine friendly. Add a highly relevant and well-worded paragraph to the page so that the search engines have something to index that shows them they are in the right place. Either provide a link to your sitemap or implement a text menu in the footer of the page so the search engines can access the internal workings of your website without having to take an extra step.

Building A Search Engine Friendly Website

Building A Search Engine Friendly Website

Search engines (SE) play a vital role in helping users find information over the Internet. With the use of certain keywords, users are able to find web pages filtered by search engines in terms of relevance, making it easier for them to find the information they need. With Google alone, billions of search queries are done every month (US). Add that up with queries from other major search engines such as Yahoo and AOL, this massive amount of usage makes search engines the biggest source of traffic for any website.

Seeing how beneficial they can be for websites, the question now is how to appear on the first few pages of the search results for their targeted keywords? People tend to stop browsing search results after a few pages, it is therefore important for websites to come up on the first page of search results. Aside from Search Engine Optimization (off-site SEO in particular), having a search engine friendly (SEF) web design helps boost the search rank of a website.

Search engine friendly web design is aimed at building websites on a framework that is easily read by engines therefore gaining a higher chance on gaining good position in search rankings. Website owners and web designers have become well aware of the importance of building search engine friendly websites, but for those who are relatively new to this concept, here are some things to take note of in order to build an SEF website:

1. Meta tags. Meta tags can be found in the head section of an HTML document. Though meta tags are no longer as influential as they were before in terms of search rankings, they can still boost a websites popularity in search engines. The title tag very much affects on how these engines categorize your website, therefore its important to have a relevant title tag on the pages of your website. The meta keywords and description provide additional information about your web page. Some engines use the meta description as the information below the link to your web page in search results.

2. Search engine friendly URLs. An example of a search engine friendly URL would be econowebexpress.com/full-feature-list. With keywords listed on the URL, it’s rather SE friendly compared to URLs with random alphanumeric characters and symbols. Not only does it help you boost your search ranking, it’s also easier for your readers to remember.

3. Content. Needless to say, the content of your web page should contain relevant keywords since search engines would rank websites based on the relevance of their content with search keywords.

4. Flash design. Since search engines rely heavily on text content in their indexing, websites made purely or mostly made in flash or may not be considered as search engine friendly web design. Before, content placed in flash are not readable by web spiders, but now there are tweaks on how to optimize flash for search engines.

5. Site map. Having a site map increases your website’s SE friendliness. A better way of making a site map is by using keywords or phrases that is targeted by the said page that you are linking to.

6. Alt tags on images. Since images are not being crawled by web spiders, placing an alt tag on images helps boost ranking since it’s readable by major search engines.

Having a search engine friendly web design helps boost search engine ranking, therefore a concept that should not be taken for granted by website owners and designers. It is a big help in terms of search engine optimization. But since SEO is a very dynamic concept, what may be effective techniques today may no longer be effective tomorrow. The same holds true web the concept of search engine friendly web design. It is best website owners and designers should be updated with the latest concepts in web design and SEO.

How to Build Search Engine Friendly Sites

How to Build Search Engine Friendly Sites

Anyone planning to start a website or an Internet business should get familiar with search engines and search engine optimization, because they play key roles in the virtual marketing world.

Search engines are often defined as tools designed to search for information on the World Wide Web. As simple as this may sound, in reality the process of gathering data is much more involved. Agents, such as spiders, ants, robots and web crawlers are sent out to surf the Internet and once they have gathered up-to-date data, they will return to the search engine’s database and deposit the newly acclaimed information.

Understanding how search engines and their agents work is vital for a successful SEO strategy and also for the reason that, if you can tell what the robots want, you know exactly how to attract their attention and make them your friends. What else can be done to structure your website so search engines and their critters will love you?

Search Engine Friendly Web Design

 

The phrase ‘search engine friendly websites’ defines comprehensive, SEO enhanced, well-written pages, which can easily be spotted by search engines. This means that their design has to please both crawler-based search engines as well as visitors. This task can be accomplished by using all possible SEO components, including targeted keywords, link building and quality content. Adding Flash clips and images can spruce up your site, but if you have too many, robots will just pass you by, because they are unable to accurately read Flash content or the text embedded in your images.

Essential Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Tools

 

Designing a search engine friendly website means applying SEO without shortcuts and throughout your entire website. Optimize through:

Keywords – Research highly targeted keywords and keyword phrases that perform well and highlight what your page, products or services are all about. Keywords can be emphasized by bolding, color, or italicizing them. Meta Tags – These words and phrases attached to web pages are invisible to the visitors, yet can be spotted by web crawlers. Title and Header Tags – It is crucial to load your web page’s title and headers with targeted tags. Meta keywords and description Tags – the most significant Meta tags are the title and description Meta tags. They are typically located in the <HEAD> section of an HTML page and allow you to influence the keywords and description of your page in some of the search engines. They also promote what your page is all about. The text you want to be displayed as your Web page description in your Meta tag goes between quotation marks after the “content” portion of the tag. Generally, 200 to 250 characters are indexed, although only a smaller portion of this amount should be displayed. Page Structure – Each website page has to be viewed as a separate entity and managed as such. All pages have to include Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML), the language that Web browsers and search engine spiders can read and understand. URL Structure – A URL or Uniform Resource Locator represents the address of a web page on the World Wide Web. When creating your website’s structure, pick descriptive, yet simple names for folders, files and documents. Like users, search engine spiders can get confused when URLs have a complicated structure, and if they pass by any part of your website your search engine ranking results will suffer. Internal Links and Site Navigation – Fancy websites can attract lots of visitors through word of mouth. Nevertheless, it does not mean that individuals, or companies, who are overloading their site with enhancing technology, are always doing a booming business. Their internal links may be hard to find among all the sparkle and the site’s navigation, embedded in Javascript, Flash or other code, may be ignored or misunderstood by search engine agents. If these busy little workers cannot interpret your intentions and codes, you will not make the top search engine ranking lists.

 

Designing a beautiful, search engine friendly website is a strategy that has massive advantages. By satisfying users, directory editors and search engine spiders you not only increase your visibility on the Internet, but will also attract many followers and customers. The more visitors you have, the higher the profits. If this is not reason enough to make your website search engine friendly, I don’t know what is!

Keywords can be emphasized by bolding, color, or italicizing them. Meta Tags – These words and phrases attached to web pages are invisible to the visitors, yet can be spotted by web crawlers. Title and Header Tags – It is crucial to load your web page’s title and headers with targeted tags. Meta keywords and description Tags – the most significant Meta tags are the title and description Meta tags. They are typically located in the <HEAD> section of an HTML page and allow you to influence the keywords and description of your page in some of the search engines. They also promote what your page is all about. The text you want to be displayed as your Web page description in your Meta tag goes between quotation marks after the “content” portion of the tag. Generally, 200 to 250 characters are indexed, although only a smaller portion of this amount should be displayed. Page Structure – Each website page has to be viewed as a separate entity and managed as such. All pages have to include Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML), the language that Web browsers and search engine spiders can read and understand. URL Structure – A URL or Uniform Resource Locator represents the address of a web page on the World Wide Web. When creating your website’s structure, pick descriptive, yet simple names for folders, files and documents. Like users, search engine spiders can get confused when URLs have a complicated structure, and if they pass by any part of your website your search engine ranking results will suffer. Internal Links and Site Navigation – Fancy websites can attract lots of visitors through word of mouth. Nevertheless, it does not mean that individuals, or companies, who are overloading their site with enhancing technology, are always doing a booming business. Their internal links may be hard to find among all the sparkle and the site’s navigation, embedded in Javascript, Flash or other code, may be ignored or misunderstood by search engine agents. If these busy little workers cannot interpret your intentions and codes, you will not make the top search engine ranking lists.

 

Designing a beautiful, search engine friendly website is a strategy that has massive advantages. By satisfying users, directory editors and search engine spiders you not only increase your visibility on the Internet, but will also attract many followers and customers. The more visitors you have, the higher the profits. If this is not reason enough to make your website search engine friendly, I don’t know what is!
