SEO Tips for Internet Marketers Just Starting Out

By Judy Horn


No doubt you are coming to understand better exactly how critical it is to know how to employ SEO for your benefits, as you understand Internet marketing. Search Engine Optimization is what SEO stands for. Search Engine Optimization is one of the best tools available to internet marketers who run their own website, because it ensures the higher ranking of the page when someone searches for a particular word or phrase.

SEO can oftentimes be extremely confusing to those who are just starting out, especially if you don't know how it works. Really a great deal more goes on with this process than just deceiving the major search engines! Here are some SEO tips and tricks you can use to get more traffic to your projects.

First of all, visitors to your site must find it easy to use and understand. People like to be able to find their way back to your main page without getting frustrated. And they like to be able to find the navigation buttons easily as well. Making your site as simple to move around in as possible will allow search engines to find it useful and relevant, which will help you immensely. A common mistake many new online marketers make is to add too many advertisements on their site's pages and to not clearly distinguish which words serve as anchor text for links. You've heard the saying, 'less is more.' When it comes to design and ease of reading, you want to err on the side of less.

Understand how you correctly utilize tags. SEO is not just about the keywords you use in the body of your content. Your titles and page descriptions can also benefit from tags that have keywords. These tags should be keyword specific so that when people use those keywords to as search terms, your site is more likely to show up in the results. When you make sure to add keyword specific tags to your titles, it will be easier for the search engine spiders to find the keyword, increasing your traffic.

Be selective about the links you include. Yes links are like currency in the internet marketing world. But one link to a solid and highly regarded site will do you more good than having fifty links to smaller, lesser known sites. Remember, you are judged based on outgoing links, incoming links and internal links.

Try not to fret about what rank your page or website gets. While it's good to have as high a number as you can, but it's useless to fret too much about what number or order Google puts you in, as that's nearly impossible to determine. Besides, every couple of months they recalibrate your page rankings, so you can experience higher or lower rankings every so often. What's more, the powers that be at Google, change the criteria for page rank authority all the time. You need to ensure you are writing quality content and have a great site, and you won't have a problem ranking in the search engine lists! Search engine optimization comes with so many rules and nuances that you might be daunted by the large task of sorting it all out in order to just get a few articles posted. It doesn't help at all that it's a constantly changing thing, either. Thankfully, with some time and research you will get the hang of how to make sure your content and websites are search engine friendly. In a matter of time, you might one day look and see that you are on the first page result with Google!
