THREE Secrets to High Search Engine Rankings the Easy Way!


Let me guess, you've read article after article on how to FINALLY get your site ranked at the top of the search engines. In fact, your mind is probably spinning with info and now you are just flat-out confused.

Am I right?

Well, this article is going to erase that confusion and set you on the right path to higher search engine rankings... the easy and SECRET way!

Take a deep breath and clear your head. I'm going to give you 3 TOP tips to instantly help your rankings.

We will follow the K.I.S.S Method (Keep it simple stupid!)

Ok here we go...

1. Focus on the RIGHT keywords

Your website or pages on your site need to focus on one or two PRIMARY keyword or keyword phrases. But the trick here is to not focus on keyword phrases that are almost impossible to rank high for. An example? Type in "credit cards" in Google and look at the amount of competing websites for that phrase. To reach the top 10 for that phrase will be extremely difficult. So pick other related phrases with less competition. They are out there, you just need to find them.

2. Put the keywords in the right places

Now that you have found the keywords or keyword phrases you want to pursue high rankings for, it is VITAL you put them in the right spots within your website. Here are the important spots...

*Get your main keywords in your title of your site
*Get your main keywords in your H1 and H2 headings
*Sprinkle in your keywords in your text...but not overkill!
*Have images? Insert your keywords in the ALT Tags
*Don't forget...get your main keyword in the LAST spot on your page

DON'T be afraid to also mix in some secondary keywords with your main keywords. Do all of this in moderation. The last thing you want are search engines to think you are just spamming.

DON'T forget that CONTENT IS KING! Mix in your real, original content in with your keywords and watch your site take off!

3. Spy on your competitors

Ok, I'm going to let you in on a littlet secret tool that you really need to invest in. You can thank me later. :) In order to get high rankings for the keywords you selected, you need to spy on the websites that are already there...and then go the extra mile to get one step ahead of them. What you need to look at is their link popularity and also WHAT other sites are linking back. You also need to look at things such as Google Page Rank, etc.

Now that I've stated what you need to look for, I'm going to reveal to you a little tool that will create HUGE results for your own site with just the click of the mouse. This is the tool that those with high rankings won't tell you about.

Before you do anything else, go here to see what I'm talking about...
Here's the secret tool

In conclusion, if you follow just these three steps I've outlined above, you will be doing better than 90% of other webmasters out there! Just keep it simple, focus on your keywords and content, and spy on those that already are in the top positions. It won't be long and you will be "king of the hill" and will reap the rewards!

PageRank for Websites: Is There More to the Web?
Google's PageRank has been around for years, and in the opinions of a lot of e-business owners, it can make or break a site. Lately, with Google's fingers in every pie, it seems important to remind everyone that there is more to a website than just PageRank. PageRank is a term that relates to the algorithm that Google uses to rank a website in its search engine. Coined by Larry Page, one of the engineers of Google, PageRank has come to mean so much to webmasters and SEO's that it dictates how we market a website. But let me coin a few terms of my own. (Or, borrow them from others, perhaps?) And while some of these concepts are included in the PageRank algorithm themselves, it's often helpful to be reminded that there are many factors that a webmaster should concentrate on, and not just one overwhelming aspect. It bothers me that Google's toolbar's PageRank indicator "measures the IMPORTANCE" of a page; important to them, perhaps, especially in light of the release of the Google Toolbar for Firefox on July 7th. But lack of PageRank doesn't mean that your site isn't important. So how do you let the search engines, Google in particular, know that? This article is a collection of the phrases that indicate the behavior of search engines today.

The META tags are used to provide extra information about a web page. There was once a time where a good search engine ranking could be achieved by simply changing the value of the META tags.

Why is Search Engine Optimisation Expensive?

Tops In Toolbars?
Most internet marketers are aware of, and probably use, the Google Toolbar. After all, it has been the only indicator of Google's PageRank number that has been assigned to a given web page. Whether the number is accurate, important, or even updated any more is a matter of debate on the marketing forums. But the only feature that was really worthwhile for more casual surfers, other than being able to use the Google search box directly, was the popup window blocker feature, which oddly enough, is the least favorite feature of many an internet marketer.
