- 26. Meta Description Tips and Tricks Make sure you have your keywords for the page appear in your Meta Description. This will help ensure Google uses your Meta Description Make your meta description short as SERPs don’t display much information. This is your chance to convince traffic to click through to your site, a crucial component in determining relevance for your site! 22
- 27. Title, URL and Image File Hints 23 Page Titles 70 Characters max., keep important keywords up front, separate keywords with “pipes” (ex. | ), every page title should be unique. URLs Have child-page urls carry keywords after the forward slash, separate keywords With “dashes” (ex. - ) or “underscores” (ex. _ ). Image File Name Rename image-file names with keywords, separate keywords With “dashes” (ex. - ) or “underscores” (ex. _ ).
- 28. Image Optimization! Basic rule – Use Alt Text Advanced tips: Use unique alt text for all images on a page. Same alt text for every image could raise some red flags for search engine spiders Do not put alt text on 1 KB navigational or spacing images Put keyword in image name: fitness-running.jpg Use .jpg or .gif and keep the image small for quick load time 24
- 29. Ranking On-Page SEO Elements by Importance Page Titles/Title Tags URLs Headings Page Text Meta Description ALT text/File Name/Image Caption Meta Keywords ** **As of late 2009 it was confirmed that none of the major search engines include meta keywords in the current algorithms. However, we believe these keywords are still being indexed and may be used again in the future so, in our estimation, it is still a best practice to take the 2 minutes to add these while building pages. 25

- Meta DescriptionMeta KeywordsAlt tags & image file namesWhile the Meta Description is not used to determine keyword relevance, it is what search engines display in the search results!
- Flash is not SEO FriendlySearch engines have limited ability to crawl flashFlash content is not well optimizedNo guarantee a search engine will see itFlash menus/navigation is not crawlableIf you have flash elements, add textual content with header tags to the page as well
- Visitors to your site looking at your menu willfind more descriptive menu items useful. Forexample “What We Do” vs. “Small BusinessConsulting” or “Internet Marketing Services”and so on
- • Google uses link text as one of it’s primarymeans of identifying important keywords for apage.• Take advantage of this by using keyword richlink text when linking to other pages on yoursite, for example:
- What is Nofollow?• A nofollow link is ignored by search engines.It is treated as text on the page.• Typically used on sites with user submittedcontent. Can also be used on your own site.• Nofollow is a piece of the HTML of a link:<a href=“http://www.hubspot.com” ref=“nofollow”>Hubspot</a>General example – privacy policyGoogle has a budget, counted in number ofpages per site it will crawl. By telling Google thatsome pages are not important, Google will notcrawl those pages, leaving room in the budget forother important pages on your site• Since nofollow links are ignored, they are nottreated as outbound links. This will make everyother link on that page more powerful
- • Try to place text towards the top of your page.• You want both Search Engines and traffic to yoursite to quickly and easily find the content• Pages load in the order information appears, so ifyou have a large video or big images above thetext, the text will not display until the file loads• When possible, avoid the use of tables. Search engines crawleach cell individually and they may not crawl thecells in the order you want them to, thus creatingfragmented text.
