Just like building a house, planning the site structure is a must when it comes to site building. You can start building your site by following the different known and tested methods. But in order for you to start the right way, plan your structure on paper before you begin to build your web site. In doing so make a point you’ll feature text links and not just graphical links. You will learn the value of such strategy. This is significant because you are to put something for the search engine spiders to crawl.

Planning the Structure of Your Web Site

A well-planned site structure entails that you make certain that your page, every page, is accessible and can be reached without any hassle from at least one inactive or unchanging text link. It is preferable that every page of your site must be three clicks or if possible less than three clicks away from your site’s home page. This is what it is meant when we say “be spiderable”. What does it implies? While it is significant that the search engines are able to find you, take note that it is not the only factor that really matters. You may be wondering what the other effective techniques are and factors that need to be addressed in order for you to have a good site structure.

So what do you need to do? There are a number of ways you can do this. One of them is to run an Opti Spider on your site to verify if your site is spiderable and correct any errors ahead of time in order to avoid big troubles in the future. There are also helpful tools which will crawl into your site and reveal to you what the spiders discover. Be sure to find the right and the best web site design that suits best to your aim. Also, make a point you have a right and valid robots.txt file. You can actually check your Google Webmaster tools account for some errors that might be present. Keep in mind that building sites requires a well-planned site structure in order to make the most out of search engine optimization strategies.

Search Engine Optimization, widely known in the web world as SEO, has gained a lot
of attention in the last few years. SEO techniques are applied to web pages so that they
are ranked higher by the search engines (like Google, Yahoo, AOL etc.) for targeted key word searches.
This article
will provide some tips on how to optimize your web pages for a better search engine ranking.
Bullet
Provide navigational links to all your web pages

In order for any search engine to index all the pages of your site, it should be able to find them.
An efficient navigation system is very important in this regard as explained in
this article. Avoid using images, JavaScript or flash
navigation links, because search engines look for HTML link tags for indexing.
Bullet
Content is king

Search engines index the content of a website, and the more content you have, the better.
Add relevant content to your website. If your website sells digital cameras, you can
add reviews on the digital cameras that you carry. This will also attract potential buyer
to your website. Usually buyers do research first before they buy online.
Bullet
Use keywords in text

In order to target keywords in searches, use the same keywords in the text.
For example, an article on design layout will use the keywords design and layout instead
of using architecture and templates. However, using the keywords repeatedly does not help
either.
Bullet
Use synonymous phrases in title, meta tags and headers

Include related words and phrases in page titles, text, and header meta tags. This will
expand the range of keywords that the web page might be listed under. For example,
this page has a title of "Search Engine Optimization - Tips & Tricks", while the article
header is "SEO: Optimize Your Web Pages". This page has been targeted for anyone searching
for either of these words. Search engines value the page title, meta tags and page headers
(within HTML <H1> tags) more than any text in the page.
Bullet
Order of keywords in title and content

The order in which the keywords occur in your web page matters in the search
rankings. For example, one of WebsiteGear pages is ranked #1 on Google for the keyword "favicon create",
whereas the same page is ranked #21 when the search keywords are switched to "create favicon".
Bullet
Use descriptive links using key words

When linking to web pages within your website, use descriptive words in that link to
describe that page. Advanced search engines use these words as the keywords defining
the content of the page.

Bullet
Use key words in file names

Use the keywords that best describe the content of the web page to name the page.
Use underscore '_' between keywords. For example this page is named as seo_tips.asp.

Bullet
Submit your site to search engines and directories

Submitting to search engines is not new to webmasters. However, follow all the rules
and regulations of such submissions to each search engine. Your site may be rejected
if it detects spam submissions of your website.
Submit to relevant categories in popular manually edited internet directories like
DMOZ.org, Yahoo.com and Zeal.com. These directories are used by most of the
successful search engines like Google, Yahoo, AltaVista and LookSmart.

Bullet
Conclusion

Plan ahead for optimizing your website pages and choose the keywords correctly. Add value to
your website so that visitors find it helpful and link to it from their webpages. Allow
some time before expecting results in the searches. If it is not satisfactory, update
your web pages again.
If you have to hire an external SEO company, search on the top search engines
for keywords such as
"search engine optimizers". Select one from the top 20 in the search results. If
they cannot optimize their site within the top 20, probably they
would fail in optimizing yours too. Read this Google article to
know more about SEO consulting firms.

No one can guarantee the #1 position in a search
engine for your web pages. Even Google is ranked #4 when searched on Google for the
keywords "Search Engine". However, rankings can be increased by tuning your web pages.
