Tips to a Search Engine Friendly Website

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a virtual buzzword today. There are millions of SEO Companies who aspire for a top-ranking on a search engine results page. Because the world-wide web is so diverse, there is plenty of space not only for your company, but also for your competitor’s company. With growing competition and business potential, you cannot afford to sit back and have even a single customer browse off to another site without even giving your website so much as a look. You can develop a very solid website with loads of interactive features and great content, but if the search engine does not list you on top, you are losing out on approximately 95 out of every 100 potential customers. However, you can be proactive; you can utilize some of the many ways to make your web page search-engine friendly.

To get the search engine interested in your website, you must start by creating a simple page called a doorway page. This page must be designed to contain a high density of keywords that can be indexed by the search engine crawler. Moreover, you must also be careful about using the keywords as close to the beginning of the page as possible. You might think that putting a keyword in bold under a big banner is good enough but think again. The actual coding of the page may have hundreds of lines of JavaScript codes before the text actually begins. The safe thing to do here is to create separate JavaScript files and keep all that coding loaded on your server. The key is to try to make the page pure html code only.

This also means that you should avoid heavy graphics. If all the juice of your web page is buried under heavily animated flash files, the search engine crawler will miss out on all of the keywords. Also, if you put your title or keywords in an image, they will end up being skipped as well. The lesson to learn here is that simplicity is the best policy in SEO. Avoid heavy graphics and say what you want to in simple text.

Search engines love keywords and links. If you can have many links on your page, then you are set up for a big ranking. Since the watchword is simplicity, it is advisable to stick to a good old-fashioned hypertext link instead of the new menu link JavaScript links. If your link structure is simple, the engine crawler is likely to pick it up easily.

If all this sends you back to the design board, don’t be disheartened. These are very simple tips that could help your site market itself. SEO is much cheaper than banner ads and other publicity. If you can get that top ranking, you can guarantee that potential customers will hit your site.
