Hi guys, Say i want to target a phrase. Is the best way to get ranked on search engines for this phrase to: 1. Have it on your own site in a hyperlink anchor text? 2. Have it on pages that link to your site in their link text? What counts the most? keywords on your site, keywords in the links to your site? Cheers.
I heard a good way was to have the search phrase in one of your headings and in your meta tags(decription, title, keywords). And somewhere else in your content.
Maybe it's a combination of everything? I think it's important to have both targeted metas, content with those keywords, and inbound links (with your targeted search phrases within it obviously from other sites) although I realize it is often difficult to achieve that since you don't have total control over what text people use to link to you. As to what counts more... I have no idea.
If I have a 10 page website and I'm targeting 30 keywords -- am i better off targeting 5/6 keywords for each of the pages or targetting 3 keywords for each of the 10 pages with no overlap?
to get ranked for "iorioejhrgfioehfvuifhv" 1- have page dedicated to "iorioejhrgfioehfvuifhv" 2- make title of page "iorioejhrgfioehfvuifhv" 3- have links in website w. anchor "iorioejhrgfioehfvuifhv" 4- get links from other sites with "iorioejhrgfioehfvuifhv" as the anchor text to "iorioejhrgfioehfvuifhv" page
Three keywords for each of the 10 pages, with no overlap - trying to optimize for more than three per page will dilute your results in the SERPs. Sam
Using your keywords as anchor text for links from other sites to yours will help you a lot more - off-page factors are weighted much more heavily than on-page factors in the SERPs. The classic example is the 'Click Here/Adobe Acrobat' example: Use the search term "click here" in Google, and you'll see that the first organic result is for Adobe Acrobat. Do a find for "click here" on the Adobe Acrobat page, and you'll see that it's nowhere to be found. HTH, Sam
