How to use keywords in the right way to get lots of traffic on Google's search machine

Many of you who manage a website wants lots of visitors. Even many of you have heard about keywords? Do you really need good Keywords? The answer is Yes. But. The real question is how do we get lots of traffic by using Keywords? Well everything depends on how your website is displayed in the Google results. How your website will be shown in the Google Results can be optimized to get more traffic. And yes you want massive traffic. So here's a tip that can get your website to the number 1 page in the Google results, with the right Google keywords. To get a good traffic you need to manage your keywords in the right way. And that is exactly what we are going to tell you on the basis of an example.

For example if you have a website about reviewing supercars like this site: http://supercars-reviewed.blogspot.com. Than make sure that you have these two main keywords in your website-address and in your title tags of your website. You can also place them in your meta-keywords an meta-description. If you don't know what your main keywords are well take a look on www.rideau.nl (Dutch) to check what the most used words in your website are. Another good tool to see which keywords are search the most, is the keyword tool of Google Adwords (you need a Google Account for this).

How to place keywords in an exact order?
Because it goes about supercars the first main keyword will be 'supercars'. So we place it as the first word in the title-tag.
Your second main key-word will be 'review' or 'reviewed'. We place 'reviewed' as second word in the title-tag.
The other words after these 2 main words can be chosen for other things that comes less important in your website or blog.

How people search on the internet.
We don't concentrate us on 1 main keyword because most people search on two words or more.
It's important that people see the main keywords in an exact order like: 'Supercars reviewed'. Because if it was written as 'Reviewed supercars'. People will first see 'reviewed' even if they searched for 'supercars' and not for 'reviewed'. Your website will be displayed lower in the Google search results. People are going to see other websites where the keyword 'supercars' is displayed first and click these websites. And that's why they get more visitors. People don't want to search long for 'supercars' as the second word because it cost time and effort. They don't want to click a few more search result pages further to search your website that is displaying the main keywords in a wrong order. So they pick the website where the word 'supercars' is shown first. More than 90% of the people will click on a website that is shown as first in the search results, because that's the result for what they been searching for.

The 'HOW TO' list for keywords in 3 easy steps to remember.
1. Research your website or blog to decide what your main keywords will be.

2. Use these main keywords in your title tag, meta description, meta keywords and your title that is displayed on your website and in your website address.

3. Make sure your main keywords displayed in the Google results are displayed in the right order.
For example: first main keyword = supercars, second main keyword = reviewed.
Google results has to be shown as: Supercars reviewed more information.
Example of how you shouldn't do: This is a website about reviewed Supercars.


This is how main keywords work in the search results of Google. Many depends on the way how human beings search and find your website.

Overture or now known as Yahoo because of Yahoos takeover, was the original inventor of the use of the P4P or Pay for Performance. Overture saw that the internet was fast becoming the easiest and most convenient way to shop, and advertising was going to hit at an all time high because of the many businesses in the arena.

To get a person to go to a site than others, it needs to be very visible. Providing ads that could direct potential consumers and costumers to their site would allow them to have an increase in traffic as well as sales. Yahoo provides a service that can put a site or companies ad in their sites that can be shown when certain keywords are inputted.

Yahoo offers a chance for any company to increase their traffic by using their services. With more people being aware of your site, there would be more traffic and visitors to your site given the chance to view your pages as well as your products. With even a small percentage of successful sales, with a high traffic volume this could still be a substantial figure for your company.

Getting a consistent substantial flow of website visitors is every companies goal. Many methods are devised and utilized to ensure that there would be more people to boost the sales and to be aware of the existence of such a product or service. Website visitors are potentially the life blood of your internet based business.

Yahoo Overture utilizes the same principle as Google's Ad words. In fact, they are very similar to each other that they use keyword and keyword phrase searches and to determine which ads to show per search. When a person types in a keyword or keyword phrase to search for anything, the search engines gives out the results in a page. Then at the right side of the page, you will see selected ads that have paid for their ads to be viewed with certain keywords and keyword phrases searched.

For example, Let's say you run a car parts retail/wholesale site. You choose keywords that can prompt or trigger your ads to be shown in the page when a keyword is searched. When a search engine user types in Honda Accord, your ad may come up if you have designated that as one of your keywords. You don't need to fully optimize your site with Search Engine Optimization methods and techniques.

While some labor so hard to make their site one of the high ranking sites per keyword search, you get the chance to be on the top of the list or at least in the first page of a search result increasing your chance to be clicked on. With that, you drive traffic and website visitors to your site a lot faster.

You will have to pony up some cash when using this service though. There are different ways Yahoo Overture will charge you. It may be in the number of Keywords or Keyword phrases your ad uses or in the many times your ad is clicked on. Others offer many other services like having your ad show up not only in the search engine pages but also with some third party sites.

Third party sites support ads that have the same theme or niche as them. With more areas your ad is shown, you increase the chances of people knowing about your site or product. With more website visitors you increase the sales of your site which makes your investment with your ads a wise one.

With so many competitions in the internet based businesses, it is necessary to take a huge leap forward from the pack by advertising. Yahoo Overture will be a great place to start. Many have utilized their services and have reaped the rewards of this decision. It's a marketing strategy that will increase your website visitors as well as increase your sales resulting to profit.

It takes money to make money, while there are some methods that are basically low cost or free, using a marketing service such as what Yahoo Overture offers will provide results faster and on a larger scale. Many businesses have learned this the hard way, don't be counted with them.

Velen van u vragen zich wellicht af hoe ze meer bezoekers op hun website krijgen. Wel hier is een tip om meer verkeer naar uw website te leiden. Misschien kunt u deze kleine tip al maar het werkt geweldig.

Search Engine Friendly Pages for Google, Yahoo!, MSN and AltaVista

There is no point in building a website unless there are visitors coming in. A major source of traffic for most sites on the Internet is search engines like Google, Yahoo!, MSN, AltaVista and so on. Hence, by designing a search engine friendly site, you will be able to rank easily in search engines and obtain more visitors.

Major search engines use programs called crawlers or robots to index websites to list on their search result pages. They follow links to a page, reads the content of the page and record it in their own database, pulling up the listing as people search for it.

If you want to make your site indexed easily, you should avoid using frames on your website. Frames will only confuse search engine robots and they might even abandon your site because of that. Moreover, frames make it difficult for users to bookmark a specific page on your site without using long, complicated scripts.

Do not present important information in Flash movies or in images. Search engine robots can only read text on your source code so if you present important words in Flash movies and images rather than textual form, your search engine ranking will be affected dramatically.

Use meta tags accordingly on each and every page of your site so that search engine robots know at first glance what that particular page is about and whether or not to index it. By using meta tags, you are making the search engine robot's job easier so they will crawl and index your site more frequently.

Stop using wrong HTML tags like to style your page. Use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) instead because they are more effective and efficient. By using CSS, you can eliminate redundant HTML tags and make your pages much lighter and faster to load.
