Hi - I have recently started developing my new site and the problem is with the target keyword phrase. That is, the keyword is "Send Money To India" and I'm confused about the usage of "to" part. As many SEs neglects these common words, is it wise to use these KWs with common terms in anchor texts? Thanks in advance. Cheers Tuning
While the SEs may neglect that word, people clicking on your link need to for it to make sense. Reading "Send Money To India" makes a little more sense than "Send Money India." Just because the SEs may disregard this two letter word doesn't mean you should leave it out. Let their engines take care of that, you're looking out for your consumers. I hope this answers your question. -Brian Renner
Yeah I agree with Brian. Moreover, let SEs see your links in a natural way. The more natural it seems, more it will do good. Try different variations of that keyword in anchor text, like "Send Money to India", "Sending money to India", "How to send money to India?" Also, you may try using the above KWs in block letters sometimes. Get your anchor texts bold in some sites and italics in some sites. That will definitely help. Net Addict.
Also, search engines to not actually neglect terms like to, a etc even though they say they do http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...ls=en&biw=1242&q=buy+a+surf+board&btnG=Search http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...rls=en&biw=1242&q=buy++surf+board&btnG=Search You should see slight differences in the actual results.
Its not that they are counting them though. They are being used as a wildcard. http://www.google.ie/search?hl=en&biw=972&q=money+the+india&meta= http://www.google.ie/search?hl=en&biw=972&q=money+to+india&meta= http://www.google.ie/search?hl=en&biw=972&q=money+and+india&meta= Money to India, Money and India, and Money the India bring back the same results
Thanks for the info! Just another question related to the same thing. Do using sendmoneytoindia.com have any advantage over sendmoneyindia.com ? [ Considering you are getting anchors with send money to india ?] Regards, Tuning
