When designing your site, there are a few simple points to remember which will greatly improve the chance of your site ranking well in Search Engines: 1. You should include around 10 words within the Title Metatags in each page and around 25 words within the Description Metatags. Your Web Design program should include help information on how to create the Title and Description Metatags in each page. These words should include the main keywords/phrases that you wish your site to be found under. Keyword Metatags in pages are no longer relevant in determining ranking in the majority of Search Engines. 2. Search Engines also read visible text on a page when adding sites to their database. Thus, it is important to include at least 20 words of text on each page for the best results. Again, try to include keywords/phrases that you wish your site to be found under. Note - Search Engines cannot read text which is in the form of images. 3. Search Engine ranking is also determined by the number and quality/page rank of websites linking to your site. If sites which have a high ranking have a link to your site, this will boost your site's overall ranking in search results more, compared to the same number of lower ranking sites linking to your site. 4. Most Search Engines also use Link Analysis. That is they will also read the text of links to your site to determine where your site should appear in search results. For example if a large number of sites have a link to your site using the phrase "property for sale" in the link, it is possible for your site to appear in search results when people enter keywords into a Search Engine which include the same phrase even if your site does not include that phrase. Google provides a very useful free toolbar which enables you to see the Page Ranking of each page in your site and other sites in the Google database. Pages are ranked from 0 to 10 out of 10. Page Rank is basically how important a site is seen to be in the Google database. The higher pages are ranked, the higher those pages will tend to be in the search results in Google + all the sites which take their results from the Google database. Page Rank is determined by the number and Page Rank of quality websites which are linking to your site.
