    Six Ways to Boost SEO

    There are lots of ways to improve how high your site ranks on major search engines, and we've highlighted six to get you started:

    1) Add Unique Content to Your Site

    Brainstorm keywords that your audience might use to find you. Anytime you add content to your site — blog posts, product descriptions, an "About Us" section, etc. — it should be rich with those keywords. Unique, quality content also gives other sites reasons to link to you, and building backlinks is part of the popularity factor search engines pay attention to.

    2) Place Keywords in Key Places

    Those same keywords should appear in your page titles, headings and subheadings (in terms of content and code). However, that doesn't mean you should cram them anywhere you can. Use them where they're relevant, and if they aren't relevant in certain places, replace them with words that are.

    3) Create a Sitemap

    Sitemaps can improve SEO by displaying links to pages on your site that search engine bots might miss otherwise. Structure your site's pages from broad to specific, and try to keep them no more than three clicks from the homepage. Google Webmaster Tools, available via your control panel, explains how to create sitemaps and submit them to Google.

    4) Add Links with Strong Anchor Text

    When linking to relevant sites, tell your readers where you're sending them. The anchor text (the wording displayed in a hyperlink) should closely match the URL you are pointing to.

    5) Submit Your Site to Search Engines

    Advanced Site Submitter allow you to submit your website to popular search engines.

    6) Call the Professionals

    Check out the SEO solutions.

    Search engine optimization takes time, but sticking with it will help establish a strong visitor base for your site, or expand your online business through increased sales.

    LOL. This thread is clearly just an attempt to sell his submitter (tip #5). I'm surprised how oblivious you all are to this blatant advertising. Content? Keywords? Sitemap? Wow, those are some really useful tips...

    :rolleyes:

    if you have more time you can submit your sites to search engines, because you don't need to do this search engine robots are coming to your websites even if you don't submit it to. Its better to use your time to other more effective techniques like creating your own reach, informative and fresh contents so that your visitors keep coming back.

    Content is king!!
    This is the most important part. New and unique content will help your rank much higher than old, stagnant sites.
