Hello everyone, I checked my site on domaintools.com, and my SEO score "however this thing scores" is decent... Still hasn't updated with the work I did yesterday, but so I can show you guys my problem, I'm pasting the current old info.... Website Title: Free New Movies and TV Shows Title Relevancy 100% Meta Description: Watch Free New Movies and TV Shows like True Blood, Family Guy and Lost with less ad interruptions. Relevancy: 70% relevant. Meta Keywords: free new movies, tv shows, watch, television, the simpsons, lost, true blood Relevancy: 42% relevant SEO Score: 92% Terms: 7307 (Unique: 1700, Linked: 982) <------ Problem #1 Images: 196 (Alt tags missing: 45) <------ Minor problem, but I can fix it. Links: 367 (Internal: 342, Outbound: 0) <----- Problem #2 AboutUs: Wiki article on Sofavision.net So you see, I have too many terms... I dont know where they are coming from, but I have a lot of them... So on google web tools, it shows me a lot of KEYWORDS that they were able to find, but none of them are keywords i want to use. Same with the links... Arn't you suppose to keep links under 100 if possible? anyway, any help would be great. Thanks in advanced everyone.
I wouldn't worry too much about trying to score well on some custom SEO rating tool like this. The only "tools" you need to worry about ranking on are Google's, Bing's and Yahoo!'s ranking algorithms. There is no "limit" to the number of links you have on your pages. The fewer links you have, the more juice you pass those pages... But I've seen pages with several hundred links get indexed just fine and the search engines are able to crawl all of the outbound links w/ no problem. I would however suggest trying to keep your links per page to 50ish. Several years back Google would index like the first 100k of each of your pages, so there is also a "100k" rule but they have no problem indexing all of the content on pages that are 500k, 600k, etc. Not all images should have alt tags. Images used for formatting should NOT have alt text like thin vertical bars that you tile across to create a background or single pixel gifs. The alt attribute is primarily an accessibility attribute used by screen readers and browsers with images disabled (like for dialup). You don't want screen readers to be reading out "blue vertical bar for tiling" and "single pixel GIF" all over the place. Leave those alt attributes blank. If you have real pictures and images on your screen that are part of the content (NOT used for formatting) then THOSE images DO need alt attributes.
canonical is right. domaintools isn't worth a lick. just keep building links with your target keywords as anchor text.
Thanks guys... Yea, I guess I wont worry too much about it... submitexpress.com's system tells me the same thing... everything is good except that I have too many links... Thats why I'm confused... Google isn't indexing the words and phrases.... hmmmm
