SEO tips for your website
SEO tips for your website
I see SEO efforts falling into two categories:
- Changes you make to your website to maximise thier position potential.
- Influences to create external links to your website.
Here are my top tips for effort No1. Not in any particular order.
Research the best keywords to use in your website to attract the users you are looking for. Then, include them in your meta tags and apply the 'strong' tag to the words as they appear in your content. You can use this page to help https://adwords.google.com/KeywordPlanner
Create a sitemap.xml for your website using https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/.
Register your website with the various search engines using:
- http://www.google.co.uk/submityourcontent/website-owner/

Make sure that when a visitor clicks your website’s logo, they are taken back to the homepage.
