    Hi All,

    I am having a new site that only contains images very less content on a page.

    Can any one help me in optimizing that web site???

    I am really in need of your advice.

    Please give your precious suggestion as soon as possible.

    Thanks :)

    If your site isn't going to have much in the way of content then your options are going to be limited. However, before I can give you any suggestions (since I tailor my advice to individual sites rather than just toss ideas about), what kind of Web site are you planning to develop that is causing you to have so little in the way of text content on each page?

    Content with SEO? Interesting idea.... could be done with heavy proper off-page optimization but results would vary on the competitiveness of the keyword or keyword phrase in my opinion. We need more information as Dan has stated.

    As both ssandecki and Dan said if you post your site and the terms you're trying to target you will get a more knowledgeable response.

    I assume you're trying to rank on regular Google SERPs instead of under image searches, correct?

    Yeh I will try to rank on regular Google SERPs.

    Related to site ->

    • It's under construction
    • I'll make it live in next 2 months
    • My site is haivng sports theme.
    • The site contains all sports items to sell in USA.
    • It's having more then 10,000 pages.

    These are the only things which i can inform you.

    Now please give me your suggestions to promote my site. As I am having just 2 months to push my site in Google SERPs.

    So i think i must have to make it live with strong ONSITE Optimization.

    Very less content means your ranking in will improved too much. Yes you can improve it by making some theme based back links. Image optimization is useful. So add alt tags in the images and also use text below the images.

    You have more than 10 K pages in website,

    Target only 2 or 3 keywords in each page title and description, but should be relevant to the page,

    You will have good results, as many as pages are getting indexed you will be happy with your rankings also.

    Provide ALT tag a keyword for each and every image.

    Regards,

    Maybe you can purchase one way backlinks from several high PR sites. Although it will be better if you have the content in your website.

    Ok everyone - STOP giving out pointless and useless nonsense and garbage that many of you pass off as "advice" that's NOT going to work here, mkay?

    Ok right now from the sound of things your site isn't even live yet. This is the PERFECT time to optimize your site. It also sounds like you have a sports related e-commerce site, meaning that your site's structure is probably going to be broken down to your main pages, your category (specific sports), and product pages (such as Louisville Slugger wooden baseball bats - of which I happen to own, though mine's about as old as I am and I'll be 30 next year) with a collection of other pages that will need to be organized.

    Before you even THINK about promoting your site, you need to figure out how to organize and structure your site's content (this includes developing a clear and consistent internal linking structure), determine what your keywords are (most of this will be easy - it's the stuff you're selling, as well as other search terms that happen to be related to your primary key phrases), write the content, and design and develop the site (I prefer clean, minimal, semantic, structured, and valid X/HTML, CSS and unobtrusive JavaScript separated via external .css and .js files that are linked to the HTML file on the front-end, tied to a back-end database that serves the content to a server-side programming language which in turn delivers the content to the user). You'll also have to ensure that the site is robust and free of any defects (including canonical URL issues and duplicate content, but certainly by no means limited to either one) before you launch it.

    If you just toss up a Web site and hope for the best, you'll find out PDQ (Pretty Damn Quick) that you've most likely shot yourself in the foot and cut off your own nose just to spite your face - you don't want that (let your competition do that to themselves).

    I happen to specialize in creating Web sites that are easy to find (search engine optimized), easy to access (accessible to practically anyone, practically anywhere) and easy to use. If you don't want to share the URL (and given the cut-throat mercenary nature of some of this forum's members I don't blame you a bit), feel free to PM me with a copy of the link and I'll see what I can do to help you out a bit on the "on-page" optimization (there is only so much I can do for free, but I'll do my best to help you out - if I see a LOT of problems, I'll suggest you either hire me on for a comprehensive IA audit, or will refer you to someone else who can - and there aren't many on this forum who can do what I do for a living anywhere close to as well as I can).

    You could have a comments section below each page of images. This way people will comment on the images and this will add tremendous unique content for you without you having to do anything.

    Sites without content attract more users who like images but they're not sites full of value...

    Site with images and without text should have alot of backlinks and unique ALTs.

    Although it won't rank good enough in the web search, but in the image search

    ~IMO

    Ridhdhi I hope you sent a PM to Dan because his post is the most important thing you're going to read if you plan on optimizing your site correctly.

    Look, you're planning on having a site that's 10,000+ pages, and I'm assuming you want it to be successful, right? For a site of that size, you're going to need everything that Dan stated: organized content, proper on-site link structure, optimization for all 10,000+ pages, etc.

    If you didn't already, I would take him up on his offer and let him look over your site; I don't think you're going to get better info anywhere else.
