SEO Unique Ideas

These are a few tips to promote your site efficiently and get effective returns. These may look frivolous but, they can really bring in a lot of traffic to your site.
  • Make the site navigation easy.
  • Many first time visitors to your website will be directed through search engines, so maximizing the placements in search engines effectively is well worth the time, effort and investment.
  • Continuous study on how the search engines work, and if required make changes to keywords of your site to maximize search rankings.
  • Periodically submit and re-submit your site to directories and search engines.
  • Use page-scanning techniques such as Google and ensure that your headings are termed in such a way that the page is shown within certain search criteria.
  • Adding some HTML hyperlinks to the home page that lead to major inside pages or sections of your website is appreciable. Place them down at the bottom of the page. The search engine will find them and follow them.
  • Participate in mailing lists and discussions that are relevant to your business, and subtly plug your site and yourself.
  • Put your Link Exchange or Smart Clicks banners or small hot link you belong to.
  • Each page in your web site will have different strategic keywords that reflect the page's content. Strategic keywords should always be at least two or more words long to use them in title, description with Meta tags without repeating them. Meta tags will help control your site's description in search engines.
  • Pick phrases of two or more words, and you'll have a better shot at success. Make sure your strategic keywords appear in the crucial locations on your web pages. Make sure that your HTML text is visible.
  • Use ALT Tags for images. The spider or the robots cannot read images but they can read the text in the ALT tags.
  • Often work on the page and update with new links, or some related stories, even links to other obtainable pages on the subject. This helps your web page to be Spam free.
  • The user will not view more than the first 10-30 entries or 2-3 pages of search results. Sometimes some typical keyword search will result in the return of over maximum possible sites that contain the keywords or the phrase used in that search.
  • Links from other sites, including portals, online yellow pages and directories, can be a significant source of traffic, if done effectively.
