Search Engine Optimisation

So many times Web Site Design is used by designers to create clever and stunning visual sites only for no one to see them because they are invisible to search engines. Google runs one of the worlds largest popularity contests that rewards good Web Site Design & punishes mistakes severely.

Google uses electronic "spiders" to search for links on web sites, & then follows them reading all the text it can find on the way. It likes to find keywords in groups, headings, image labels etc, but not too many otherwise it will think that you are trying too hard & will then begin to count them against you.

Google has a huge problem with reading images & Java Script (flash buttons/links etc). The problem is it can't read them or follow them. This means that whilst you may have the richest content on the web for you given topic, if your navigation devices are images or Java Script then all google will see is a blank page with no links & you will forever wallow at number 1,458,000 in the rankings.

The acronym "SEO" can also refer to "search engine optimizers," a term adopted by an industry of consultants who carry out optimization projects on behalf of clients, and by employees who perform SEO services in-house. Search engine optimizers may offer SEO as a stand-alone service or as a part of a broader marketing campaign. Because effective SEO may require changes to the HTML source code of a site, SEO tactics may be incorporated into web site development and design. The term "search engine friendly" may be used to describe web site designs, menus, content management systems and shopping carts that are easy to optimize.
