You must;

1) Know the basics - you need to know what is Description, Titles and Key words.
Learn how/why to add this information throughout the pages of your site.
Read an article on these subjects.

2) Get a Google Webmaster account.
Google is far and away the most important search engine and a Webmaster account can
give you more control over/insight into how they’re ranking you.

3) Use page names that are relevant to search words and phrases.
The name you provide to a page, is the name given to both in the site
navigation and in the address of that page on your site. Why is this important?
Because if a word is in your address it is seen as more relevant to your site by
search engines. More relevant means more likely to to show up in search results.

4) Use keyword phrases in your links.
If you link from one page of your site to another, use descriptive text for the
link.
Example: Read HOW TO CREATE LINK ARTICLE (this is your link) and learn how to do
this on your own site.
Is better than this: Learn how how to create a link by GOING HERE (your link).

5) Use Titles to headline content in your site (when appropriate).
Search Engines see Titles as generally more important than regular text. You can
add Titles to your site via our Title element and via the Title section of any
Paragraph element that includes a Title.

6) Get other sites to link back to your site.
The more sites that link to your own site, the more Google trusts your site to be
worthwhile. Think of other people linking back to your site as word-of-mouth that
tells not just other people to check-out your site, but tells the search engines to
do the same.

There are a few more elements like keep a blog as the search engines like to see new content on your site, be specific about your site in terms of your niche,specialization, location etc (otherwise overcrowded and you won't at the top list) and the use of google map to further enhance your presence online.

Hello

There are 9 main points SEO related:

• Keywords
• URL Text
• Meta tags
• Title tags
• Image Names
• ALT tags
• Heading tags
• Content
• Hyperlinks

The purpose of these steps is to load your pages with as many "keywords" as possible.

- Keywords
Keywords are the most important aspect of good SEO, this is where you tell the Search Engines what your site is about. Search Engines use an algorithm to determine the "Keyword Density" of your site, this formula is: Total Words ÷ Keywords= Keyword Density
Choose keywords that best relate to the information, products or services that you are offering

- URL Text
When you name a new page you have the option to call it anything you could possibly think of, why not set a keyword?

- Meta tags
These tags are dwindling in importance since Search Engines are now looking at content. Optimize your meta tags to match your content, products, and services.

- Title Tags
Title tags are the tags that tell the Search Engine the title, or formal description of the document or page. This is the word or phrase that is seen at the top of the browser window. The most important rule about title tags is, don't put anything in the title tags but keywords.

- ALT tags
Alt tags are keywords that you can attach to images, giving more weight to the image since Search Engines can't analyze the content of the image itself.

- Heading tags
Heading tags are associated with the bold font that leads into a section of text.
heading tags should only be keywords, and should be presented in the order that your Meta tags follow. H1= first meta tag, H2= second meta tag...
Try to utilize all 6 heading tags on each page to ensure maximum page optimization.

- Content
Each web page should have at least 350 words on it, and the more the better, but keep in mind the formula for keyword density.

- Hyperlinks
Hyperlinks are text links to other pages on your site.
The rules of hyperlinks are:

• Use hyperlinks so the Search Engine will have a text link to follow to the next page
• Don't use one word links, use long link phrases, preferably keyword phrases
• Use bullets, or some sort of small image that you can attach an ALT tag to

Use keywords effectively

It is important to optimize your site. There are cases whereby a site can be up and running effectively, but it does not enjoy much traffic.

To have improved ranking in the search engines, it is crucial to have a site that has focused keywords and the keywords placed in the meta tags in a strategic manner. The keywords should appear in your text more than once

Optimization in websites is nothing but placing the keywords and other phrases in the right place.

Read the following to see about keyword:

Google Adwords Keyword Planner
Wordtracker
WordStream

Include phrases as well as single keywords.

The reason for doing so is that the more specific the search term, the more targeted the level of traffic it will drive to your site.

Having a lot of content in a website helps because the inside pages of a website works like a mini-website, meaning that they act as the entry point in which many people will do their search and which the website can be viewed in search engines. Many pages that have optimized content lead to increased chances of the website being visited or found.

Give people the info they need, you can draw in exactly the kinds of people who are most interested in your products.

Search engine crawlers are kept busy indexing your site on a regular basis. The higher the search engine rankings the easier people will be able to find it more easily.

Most of the Google search results are mostly determined by the amount of inbound links used in the websites. You can add links in your websites by searching for directories where addition url can be made using forms found on the sites.

If you offer a free product, you have more chance of people seeing your site, and thus higher SEO. This may not seem right to you, but it will create a good feeling with the person reading your blog, etc, and you create again a higher conversation, and get potential customers to your sites

When you talk about Search Engine Optimization (SEO), you are trying to make your Website attractive enough to get the various search engines to rank your Website high. The things that will attract these search engines the fastest are relevant keywords and high quality page content. Relevant keywords are those that describe your Website content and, when put in your Browser’s search engine; take you to a results page that lists your Website. With the proper relevant keywords your Website will be listed on the first or second page. The easiest way to determine the proper keywords is with keyword software.

Once you determine the keywords you want to rank for, if you do not yet have a domain name, try to use at least one of them in the name as this helps the Search Engine find your Website for ranking. In any case, your topic headers and your Website content should contain these keywords. However, do not use your keywords too many times in your content as Search Engines such as Google can consider you are just putting in keywords just to get higher ranking. Also, it may make your content not flow properly.

One caution, do not use SEO link programs or software to try and raise your Website ranking. Recently Google has been banning Websites with non-relevant links.

Play the keyword game properly and you will get your Website ranked high and promote SFI and TripleClicks.

SEO contributes to online success and with Google’s incredible market share in the digital world it is important for any business to have a strong focus on SEO. SEO will help you position your website properly to be found at the most critical points in the buying process or when people need your site. The best way to set up SEO on my website to promote SFI and TC are as follows:

START WITH A GOOD DOMAIN NAME
Google tends to give weight to keywords in the domain name. This increases the importance of selecting a good name. Google likes to know that your domain name is relative to what is on your site.

CHOOSE A GOOD WEB HOSTING COMPANY
There are countless web hosting companies out there. It is important that you pick one with good bandwidth and good reviews. Google gives a lot of credibility to how quickly your site loads. If your site loads slowly due to poor hosting company, you may find your rankings drop.

STAY AWAY FROM FLASH
Search engines, including Google, Bing, Yahoo!, and Ask, still have difficulty reading and indexing flash websites. It is better not to use it much on your site.

STATIC vs DYNAMIC PAGES
If your site has dynamic content, search engines are far less likely to find, crawl and rank a completely dynamic created page. Therefore, the newly created dynamic page will not aid and could probably hurt your rankings.

PICK THE KEYWORDS YOU WANT TO RANK FOR
Choose the words that people would type into search engines to find you. The best way to do this is to come up with a list of words, phrases, and even short sentences that you think people would use to find your site. Make use of Google’s Keyword Tool to find out how many average monthly searches each keyword has and what the competition looks like.

WRITE GOOD, UNIQUE CONTENT
When writing content make sure the content is unique and original. You should use your primary keyword for the page 5-6 times (based on 350-500 words) and your secondary keywords 2-3 times each. Also use your keywords in the title and heading tags of your pages.

INCLUDE A SITE MAP PAGE
Spiders can’t index pages that can’t be crawled. A site map will help spiders find all the important pages on your site, and help the spider understand your site’s hierarchy.

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE TOOLS THE SEARCH ENGINES GIVE YOU
Sign up for Google Webmaster Central, Bing Webmaster Tools, and Yahoo Site Explorer to learn more about how search engines see your site.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) continues to evolve as time passes.

Search engine optimization (SEO), as you know, is the process of becoming "noticed" by the search engines in order to attract targeted traffic to your site. Some view SEO as the process of having the search engines choose your site for page 1 - (landing on page one or page one ranking) whenever somebody searches for something you're selling.

Choosing appropriate “keywords” would be the first step in optimizing your website. Choosing appropriate “keywords” involves tying what you are selling to the most common words used when people search for what you are selling. The next step would be to optimize your website with the chosen “keywords”. Do remember “keywords” include “long tail keywords” which are keywords with more than three words – such as “how to get out of debt”.

Optimizing your web-site involves editing your website content to include "keywords"; editing HTML and related coding for keyword inclusion and removing any barriers that otherwise might restrict the search engines "indexing activities"( also known as “crawling” your site by the search engines to determine what it’s about)..

More recently, increasing the number of backlinks is another SEO activity.

SEO techniques are now broadly classified as white hat techniques (ones that search engines recommend) and black hat techniques (not approved by search engines. I mention this as an FYI.

Having said all of that, we can begin with choosing “keywords”.

I have found that the keywords SFI uses in the banner ads - found under marketing aids are really good keywords:

Attracting affiliates: “work from home”, “home based businesses” or “get out of debt”

TripleClicks: “Bargains”, “world’s largest on-line garage sale”; "Deals galore"

Many affiliates use more than one website when they sell more than one type of products and the products are quite different. If you are thinking about starting a new website, the best place for your keyword is in the domain name itself. Google takes exact keyword match as a very important factor for page ranking. If you are able to name your website with a high ranking keyword, you can almost be guaranteed the number one spot on page one of any search engine.

Google has a "keyword planner" that can tell you which keywords are ranked high. In addition, there are software programs that also rank keywords.

Lastly, if optimizing your website is too much work, you may want to consider one of the many vendors at TripleClicks that can certainly provide you with an SFI SEO website.

Although the above information only touches on the main points of SEO, I hope it has helped.

The first thing you'll want to do is choose several keywords/phrases that you want to rank for. This is the most important step. If you get this wrong, what you do after does not matter, so choose wisely.
Use a keyword tool and check for average number of searches and competition. Your ultimate goal is to find keywords with a high search volume and low competition. This is usually hard to find, which is why choosing keywords is so important.
It won't do you much good to rank on page 1 of the search engines for a keyword that only gets 10 searches a month. Nor should you choose a keyword with very high competition. Keywords like 'work at home' or 'home based business' might seem obvious to rank for, but there is so much competition for these it's highly unlikely you'll be able to get on the first page. It may take years to break through on highly competitive keywords.
There is a lot that goes into a search engine choosing your website to display on page 1. They look at your domain age, speed of your website, whether it's responsive, social factors, page rank and the value of the content you're displaying.

If you're writing an article using specific keywords, make sure it contains unique, original content that offers the readers value. Do not ever post duplicate content or content of poor quality. Make sure your grammar is perfect and there are no spelling errors. Do not overuse your keyword either. Try to use it every 100 words or so.

Meta tags can be set on each page of your website, but these are less important in today's SEO world. Concentrate more on the speed of your website and make sure it is mobile friendly. Also, you should check to see if it's compatible in all browsers (IE, Chrome, Safari, FireFox, etc.)

There is a lot more involved with SEO, but if you start with a fast website and research your keywords carefully, you should be off to a great start. Spend most of your time researching keywords. I cannot stress this enough. It is the most important factor of SEO!
