Tags To Improve Rank With Search Engines
Improve Your Website Rank In Search Engines
Hi Folks
A lot of new members seem to ask this question - "How do I get people to come to my website?"
In my opinion its all down to how you use your Tags and below are my 4 top tips.
1. Title Tag The title should contain keywords and keyword phrases that are important to your site. The recommended maximum number of characters for this tag is 60. Also when counting your characters remember that spaces are considered as well. Titles should also appeal to the reader otherwise even a top position will lose a lot of clicks.
Right Click And Open In New Tab To Enlarge
2. Keywords I personally don't go above 250 characters for keywords. This is because any more than that would be considered spamming by the search engines. You should also keep your keywords focused on what your site is about.
Your keywords should also be targeted to your audience. This makes sense because an assortment of different keywords wont improve your rank and could prove detrimental.
3. Description Tag The maximum number of characters I recommend for this Tag is 150. Any longer than this and it will only be cut off and may count against your site being listed high in the search engines. Try to repeat your keywords that you used in your title in a proper sentence and in 3rd party. Avoid I, Me, Myself etc
4. Head Tag HEAD (HTML document) The head is the top portion of the HTML source code behind Web pages, beginning with and ending with.
It contains the Title, Description, Keywords fields and others could be used to describe the page. The title appears in the title bar of most browsers, but the other fields cannot be seen as part of the body of the page.
Someone asked me about this today, so here's what you do to view your Head. You should also be able to see any Codes you have inserted in your Wordpress Editor - header.php.
To view the portion of web pages in your browser, click VIEW, Page Source.
Some search engines will fetch based on the text in these fields.
Head Tags should be a repeat of your title tag. Most people put their head tag right after the body tag. A head tag will look like this (h1) (/h1) with the ( and ) being replaced with < >
Ok folks there you have it and I would follow the above tips to the letter if you want your site content to rank if not on the first page then certainly on the second or third pages.
Have a great day and be successful.

Yes I did thank you. I have been thinking a lot this week....my 3rd website could be on the horizon. Thanks for the nudge. I will let you know when its published.
So you are going to shelve the other two for now.
As I have told you before, its always best to go with what you have experience and knowledge of or have a passion for.
You get stuck, you get in touch.
