Loading ...Search engine optimisation is incorporated in every aspect of your website. You optimize a website is so search engines can recognise, index and make it show up well in search results. Without a good ranking position your potential clients cannot find your website. There are three basic ways to optimise your website so that your website can be found. You need to be seen amongst the millions of others on the internet.
It would be a futile waste of time to have a beautiful website, but no-one can find it. SEO is the tool that allows your website to be found. Browsers on the Internet have grown smart since the beginning days of the WWW. People want quality; they do not want mediocre or generic information and they want to navigate a website with ease.
They want detailed product descriptions or they will simply go to another website that gives them the quality they demand. The search engines can only help if your website is optimised properly. It is up to you if you are going to put in the effort to make it easy for the search engines to find and index your site.
Homepage
The homepage is the first step in optimisation and you need to find the specific keywords to use for optimisation. Once you have decided which keywords you want to use, research must be done to see how small or big the competition for these specific words is. The rule for your keywords is that you must be specific.
It does not matter if your keywords are simple or complicated; the need is to be specific or the competition will most probably be too high. This means you will not achieve a good ranking if your keyword is too general. From your chosen keywords, you create keyword rich URLs that is part of your homepage optimisation effort.
Category page
A category page could be seen as being a subsection of your website. Example; if your are a business selling products, the page that lists all your products would be your category page. Therefore, your category page must be optimised to be found. Vital to remember is always to link any sub pages back to your homepage. Every link from your category page is building another internal link and this is very important.
Too many people forget that internal links are just as important as good back links from outside. Your website navigation should be a trail to follow back to your category page from your product and content pages.
Content or product page
It is important not to skip or stint on optimising content pages and product pages. These two pages should make up the bulk of any business website. These two types of pages are the main focus of why people will come to your website.
Either they want information or they are looking to buy a product that you sell. Both content and product pages must be keyword rich and they keywords used must be highly targeted ones.
