Use your incoming links carefully. Search engines will actually look at who is linking to your siteregularly, and if they are a quality website themselves. If the search engine does not recognize thelinking website of one of high quality, then the website linking to you may take you down a notch inthe search engine's credibility standards.

To help your SEO, always provide a 301 redirect for any URLs you retire or change. Search enginesrespond to messages sent from the servers of no-longer-existing sites, and 404 page errors hurt yourranking the most. Using a 301 redirect ensures search engines note the URL change and use thepage ranking results associated with the old URL.

Use plural or longer variations of keywords to increase the opportunity for your site to pop up onsearch engines. Some search engines use what is known as keyword stemming. If your primarykeyword were "parent", a stemming search engine would not link you to the results for searchesbased around "parents" or "parenting". If you are using a search engine that uses keywordstemming, use the longest form of the word possible.

Remember to search engine optimize your articles before publishing them. By including keywords inthe title and body of an article on your website, you can increase your website's search engineresults page rank. The higher your website's page rank, the more targeted, organic visitors you willget to your website.

The initial sentence on any page of your website are essentially the META description tag for thatpage. This is because there are certain search engines that will make use of the text itself as the sitedescription blurb shown in the search engine that Internet searchers see. If your content is of poorquality, it can hurt your page rank.

To choose the best keywords for your search engine optimization strategy you must think likesomeone who would want to find your website, not someone who already knows what's there.Determine the relevant terms visitors are using when they use search engines.

If you use a domain name solely to test your website, don't let the search engines find it! If they doyou'll end up having people click through to it as well, and they'll end up confused and frustrated.The search engines also might start penalizing your legitimate domain for duplicate content.

Log-based statistics are far superior to tracking code statistics like Google Analytics.

These statistics will also cover allvisitors, not just those with the ability to be tracked by JavaScript. Log-based statistics are totallycomprehensive.

When creating META keyword tags to fully optimize your search engine rankings you should not putthe same keywords close together. If you do end up using the same keyword in the same tag, takeextra caution not to position the words close to each other as this can have an adverse effect on yourranking.

Write high-quality meta description tags for everypage on your website. Doing this will not really affect your rating much at all, but it will get morepeople clicking on your search listing. This will help your company get more sales, or at least moreleads for sales in the future.
