What are Keywords

Search words used by viewers looking for information.
Keywords can also be purchased from search engine companies so that an appropriate ad banner may be displayed when a viewer searches on a particular word.

Why are keywords so important to search engine optimization? Well, those exact keywords form the basis for any web site as they produce a great impact in the search engine listings and rankings.

Keyword Search Terms

Many people who start an online business honestly think that the moment they uploaded a Web site to the host it will magically appear on every search engine in existence. Some of you are snickering. Others are saying, "You mean it doesn't?" No... it doesn't. Read More on Keywords...

Choosing Keywords
As an example, the term "register domain name" is searched over 3.7 million times each month. An optimized site model with the name "registerdomainname.com" can achieve high rankings in search engines, as the keyword search term is the same name as the business web site name. The popularity of a keyword is the number of times the term is searched on major search engines.

You must consider which keywords your site visitors will use to find you and then incorporate those words into your Web site tags and - more importantly - your copy. If your site deals with dog grooming, the key phrases could be: dog grooming, pet grooming, dog bathing, grooming and boarding. Your keywords need to be those that most people would think of when searching the Internet for a site such as yours.

Now that you've decided on your keywords, where the heck do you put them?
Here are some basic guidelines that work and will help you get more mileage out of your keywords. SEO Keywords

1. Most Importantly - Include keywords in your copy.
Of course, you'll need to use your keywords within your copy. Excellent places for keywords include: the very top of the page (above your logo), the headline, sub headlines, the first paragraph, and the last paragraph.

Keep in mind that search engine spiders are stupid. They are looking for the exact keywords, not something that's close. If you really want to be listed under the key phrase of "dog groomer and border", then that specific and exact phrase must appear repeatedly throughout the copy on all pages of your site. Be sure it is included in the first paragraph, in the first sentence if at all possible.

2. Put keywords in your META tags.
The site title is what shows up in the blue bar of the browser screen. Something like "dog groomer and border offers loving care" will do. Notice it doesn't include the name of the grooming company. It includes a very short description of the business, including keywords.

Now, we'll do something similar for the keyword and description tags.

For the keywords description we'll type in: "dog groomer and border dog grooming, pet grooming, pet bathing, dog bathing".

For the site description, we'll type in a short, attention-getting sentence. This is what your visitors will see when they search for your company and the listings appear on the screen. It can normally be 25 words or less. This also must include your keywords and phrases. Something along the lines of "Dog groomer and border. Our dog groomers take exceptional care of the special pet in your life." Notice it gives an advantage for using your service (you take care of the pet), as well as using three of your keywords.

HINT: You can include a different site title, description and keywords for each individual page if you choose to.

3. Put keywords in your ALT tags.
If we added a photo of a dog wagging his tail, we could include an ALT tag that says, "Dog grooming for the special pet in your life" or another phrase that includes our keywords. Because ALT tags consist of words, the search engines can read them just like they read your META tags. When they read the keywords within the tag, it increases your keyword usage and your chances of getting higher positioning.

4. Include keywords in your domain name and page names.
Perhaps you've found that "groomer" is your most effective keyword. You might try to get a domain name such as dog-groomer.com or groomer- and-border.com. Including keywords in your domain name gets you extra brownie points! Likewise, include keywords in all your page names.

When you create page names that include keywords, you get an additional boost to your rankings. You might consider naming pages "special_pets" and "groomer_pricing" or "dog_services". Your URL for the pricing page would be www.dog-groomer.com/groomer_pricing.html.

While keywords aren't the sole factor to obtaining high search engine rankings, they are the predominant factor. By placing them in these strategic areas, you will increase your chances of being found on the 'Net.

How to use Keywords effectively
For example let's say your company is selling garden sheds you would optimize your pages to correlate with the brand, construction material, type and size of garden sheds you are offering. How are they constructed? Do they require assembly? Does the buyer have to assemble the garden shed?

Whenever appropriate regionalize your selection. When you place your focus on a regional market you attract a more targeted market.In doing so not only is the competition lower but your chances for meeting your conversion goals increase significantly.
If you only sell your products within New England Tri States area be sure you contain specific phrases (New England,Tri State/ Tri States, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut) within your Title, body and anchor text.
