These days most websites are just created with no thought taken in for how they will be found on google. While a website might look fantastic if cannot be found on google, you will be wasting your time. There is also a great need for you to present your site in a way that will create sales and action from your browsers.
Before you start a website it is important to make sure that you target a hungry audience. The first rule is to simply find out what people want and then feed it to them. Most browsers are sick of advertisements that have nothing to do with their search, and therefore just ignore them. Using tools like Googles ad words tool is a great place to start.
Choosing your domain is one of the most important decisions for online success. I have ranked on the front page many times simply by using the keyword in my domain name. Using extensions such as .Com .Net. .Org .Info .Biz are all great extensions to use when choosing your domain name. There is much talk as to which extension is best, but when its all said and done, if you have your primary keyword in the domain then it should fall into place. I have personally tested .info domains lined up against .com domains and have found that there is absolute no difference in the google rankings.
Your website must have completely unique content, and furthermore helpful content. The net is full of people that have unique content and that is great, however simply providing unique content isn't enough any more. You must provide helpful and resourceful content, to stimulate your readers, and even to educate your readers.
Link building is essentially getting links from other website pointing back to yours. It is like a voting system in the online world, and Google has built their success on this system. Link building may be an essential part to your online success, however not as important as what I have listed above. I have about 40 websites that rank very well on Google that have no back links. However if you are struggling to rank after a few months then you will need to grab some good back links to your site. Submitting articles to article base, ezine articles, and go articles is a great place to start, just make sure you put your link as a text link with your anchor text as your keyword. Here is an example html code you must put in. "keyword-goes-here" .
Well that is a few helpful tips to keep In mind when you are creating your website, or having it created by a web design company.
