Loading ...There is one big question that is always hanging in the air; does your website designer need to know a single thing about search engine optimization? Some optimizers may tell you that your web designer need not know a thing about optimization because that is their job, not the web designer’s job.
However, it is imperative that your website be designed with optimization in mind. This is so that your website can ultimately be designed to cater to search engine optimisation. So, we ask you again, do you still think that your web designer need not know anything about optimization when they tackle the creation of your business website?
Best of both worlds
When you are in the process of creating a website, you need to get your web designer and your search engine optimizer to work hand in hand. In this way, you can ensure that your website design is fully optimized and caters to future optimization efforts. If you decide to have your website designed first and then optimized later, you may be in for a big surprise.
Optimization after design ends up being a laborious and tedious process. There is also no guarantee that your website will be able to be completely optimized. Thus, it is vital that your web designer and your optimizer have a good relationship and work well together.
The ideal starting point
The ideal starting point for optimised design of your new website. A superb site map is imperative to help both your human visitors and the web crawlers navigate your website with ease. Internal links from one page of your website to the other is also a great way to optimize your website. If one page ranks well and it is linked to another page of your website that is not ranked well, the link will automatically improve the rank of the poorly ranking page.
This is kind of improved ranking by association with a higher ranked page of your website. Your web design needs to be optimized for the engines as well as for your human visitors. Make sure that everything from your chosen font to your colour scheme is appropriate and easy to read, easy on the eyes and even attractive to your human visitors.
You need to make sure that your title tags, Meta tags and all the rest are optimized for the engines. When your web designer and your optimizer work well together, all of this gets taken care of in the creation process and not afterwards.
One more design option
One more design option that your web designer and your optimiser need to work on together is your website blog. Blogs are different from normal web pages in their programming and more. Blogs also draw the most attention from the crawlers and engines; they are crawled more regularly than normal web pages. This means that the optimization of blog pages is incredibly important to your web visibility. Here again, optimization during the creation process saves time and effort, not to mention money.
