Hi, This is my second post on the series of tips for SEO optimization. The tips provided by me is from my own experience and I am ready to answer your queries. In this post I will explaining about the KeyWords optimization KeyWords optimization for SEO If you are running a website it is more important to concentrate on the KeyWords optimization. Most of the people will be looking into increasing the PR of the website, they assume that high PR will get more traffic. I have two sites with PR 3 and PR 5. I am getting more traffic from PR 3 site. So, focusing on keywords is the main part for increasing the traffic. I will be writing important points while considering the keywords in your webpage. 1)When you are writing the title of the web page, that is the right place to put your main key word. Please be precise when writing the title and also the order words are important. Don't use any punctuation and common words like in,and,etc. For example, "KeyWords Optimization Techniques". 2) You can write the meta-description tag which briefly explains the theme of the page. try to use the keywords effectively. 3)Header on the page. Use <h1> for the important keywords. That means when you are using the heading, please name it properly and don't put any unnecessary words. 4)It is important to high light the key words using tags <b>,<i>,<h3>,<h2>. Writing article is not the only job for you, using the proper keywords only show your page in the google. 5)Don't use the keywords more number of times. It depends on the length of your web page but try to spread the keywords across the page. Over-repetition of keywords on a page might be interpreted as spam by the search engines. 6)Use keywords in the anchor texts. For example, instead of using the anchor text as "see here", use the keywords in anchor text. That is another place where search engines give importance. There may be other tips aswell, I will be posting in this thread. If anyone have good knowledge on keywords, please share it here.
When you are linking inside your website or linking other websites, you will have to use anchor text right? In that please use the important keywords. That has more importance.
I am challenged in figuring out exactly what keywords or phrases to choose and use. Finding the right tool to assist is one thing but figuring out which ones would be the best to use is another. Anyone have some guiding advice or an "in a nutshell" explanation? thanks
In my signature I have mentioned some keywords these are called Anchor Text. If you click those links it will redirect to some page or websites.
hi krishna, I joined as a search engine optimizer in a fashion company before one month. I posted 4 articles with all relevant keywords, what is the next step i can de other than the content to increase its traffic
Submit the articles into popular social book marking sites. try to increase the PR of the web site buy publishing quality articles. Quality articles will built more back links. That is very important. Join forums related to your niche and post about your articles. add signature to your web site. Creates RSS feeds for your website and allow users can subscribe it. You can learn about Google's Feed Burner for burning it. Analyse the traffic by installing Google Analytics script in your site, It is important to know the nature of your traffic.

It is not about the length of the keywords. May be you can combine many words into single sentence makes difference. For example you have a web page which talks about the "Nike Shoes", the possible tittles are, Nike Shoes Black Nike Shoes Nike Shoes in India In the above list first one gives more importance for "nike shoes" because that is the only key word. When user searches for the "nike shoes", first one gets preference, when searches for "Nike Shoes in India", then third one gets the preference. It is only one the measurement by google. APrt from this keyword importance will be calculated based on number backlinks to that specific page. Hope this explanation helps you.
I would agree that If you have a web page in the specific topic, try to build key words in the very specific manner. That will avoid competition for a keyword. normally length keywords has less competition, also it brings less traffic. For example, there is more users search for "Nike Shoes" in the same way only few people search for "Nike shoes with iPod Features". Isn't?
Keyword density is the number of keywords present in the total number of words in the whole page. For example if you have a web page about "Nike Shoes" with 1000 words, in that you are using the word "Nike Shoes" in 12 times. Then the key word density is (12/1000)*100 = 1.2. Normally I feel upto 4% key word density is good. Also if you are going beyond the limit, there is chance that google may suspect your site as spam. Because normal page will have only the certain amount of words repeated. I hope this clears your doubts.
