Making sure that you get good SEO ranking depends on just a few important factors. Uncle Arthur has provided this invaluable article - a quickie review of those factors - to give you the summary for success. Here are the factors:

1) The design of any website is important to the way search engine spiders read your website. Search engine spiders rate your code and content by it’s position in the webpage. Keep your keywords in the content as high on each page as possible so that it is credited with more weight in the page.

2) Optimizing content is all about using keywords that you want the spider to find. There are three parts to this process: keyword density, formatting, and overall website relevancy.

Keyword density is the frequency of use of a particular keyword in a text per 100 words of text. Keyword density of 3-5% is optimal.Get your content into a format that the spiders like to read - this means use keywords in all titles, header tags and content. If you capitalized, bold or italicize this will also increase the spiders notice of your keywords. If you emphasize your keywords about on fourth of the times that they are used, then you will get a maximal effect.

Whole site relevancy is important because if your website has all its content about dogs and dog care it will do better for those keywords than a competitor site that has many different keyword groups for cats, squirrels and aquariums.

3) Building inbound links is extremely important. These links should be built from many types of sources. Here are the main sources:

Submit your website to directories. This provides links and brings traffic to your website. Some directory listings are free of charge. The more relevant the directory listing is to your content the better.

Send out articles to ezines with your links at the end of the article and leave comments with your links on various relevant blogs to spread out some inbound links.

Write for your own blog and add links to your content pages. Swap blogroll links with other relevant blogs.

Use more internal links on your website from one page to another to increase your website’s weight.

5) Use social media for SEO to get the links from the social networking websites themselves, which have value, and you can network with many relevant webistes for further collaboration and reciprocal linking. Any relevant sites that are in your community add to your relevancy.

Uncle Arthur knows that if you do these simple things you will get better SEO rankings because you will keep your visitors, including the spiders, coming back for more relevant content on more links. That’s the quickie! Whoo! Hoo!!!
