Under Standing the Basics of SEO

We can evaluate the success and reputation of any website by the traffic of that website. As much traffic comes to website then there are much more chances to earn by website. To get information and access to websites Search Engines are biggest source for users. Users neither know the website about his desired topic even if he knows but don't remember it for a long time period, So, in this case search engines are best source where user can search for his/her desired content.

To generate website traffic search engines  has important role. Most websites get traffics through these search engines, after that websites gets traffic from some other resources. In search engines Google is most famous and after this Yahoo, Bing and Msn is in the list from where any website gets a ton of traffic. So, it is very important that you must make your website/blog Seo friendly. Before joining Search Engines you must these thing in your mind which I am gonna tell you.

What are Benefits of SEO

Seo has great importance and every newbie and pro bloggers are using this. As I mentioned above, we can drive a big traffic due to Search Engine Optimization. We shall be able to get high PR (Page Rank) if we use it in right way. You must avoid Black Hat seo technique, though it can take our website/blog on the top in very few days but after this our website or blog will be hit by hummingbird, penguin etc, some time it might be kicked out from search engines. It can be divided into two main types which are on page and off page, here am gonna discuss both these.

On Page SEO

1. Do Proper Keyword Research

It is very important thing, we should use that keywords which are highly searched. For this purpose we can use Google Keyword Planner, where you have to write your desired keyword the rest work it will do for you, after a little moment it will shows you details about your keywords that how much that is being searched per month and in which country it is leading. In addition, it will give you some useful suggestion about post tittle and links as well.

2. Choose Post Tittle in between 55 Characters

It is very important that we should choose post tittle in between 55 characters or less then it because Google shows 55 words in SERP, if we choose tittle more than fifty five characters then it will never ever shows full post tittle in search result and it will be determined as broken links. In result there are less chances to drive organic traffic. There are so many online tools from where you can count words and characters for free.

3. Use Tittle and Alt Attribute to Optimize Images

Without images article content is lifeless because images gives a high level energy to article. Before adding them to post rename them with your topic mean if you want to write a post about Latest Fashion of 2013, you must save them as "fashion-2013.jpg" or according to your choice but kindly don't rename them as jhg.jpg etc.

Now after inserting any picture into the article it is the time to optimize them for indexing them, it will help you to drive more traffic. You must use Tittle and Alt attribute for better seo, in Tittle tag give a unique tittle to that image and in alt tag write your keyword but make sure keyword might be less then five words.

4. Optimizing Permalink

It is one of the most important thing. Most of newbies don't give priority to permalinks. I have seen a lot of links which are completely unsuitable. I am giving you an example for both type of links.

Bad Type : htt://yoursite.com/pid=189

Good Type: http://yoursite.com/your-keyword

So, I think now you have cleared your mistake, I recommend you that permalink must be short and use your keyword in it.

5. Enable Meta Description

Meta Description is used to describe your blog and individual post, which is very helpful for web crawlers and users because it attract the spiders to it self. Basically meta description is used to describe info of a blog and for individual post we used Search Description which will show under the post tittle in search result & ensure it will bring a lot of traffic from search engines.

6. Make Interlinking with other Posts

Many Professional blogger advice about interlinking, Because it will boost up your older posts. Beside this when web crawlers comes to index new post first of all it searches for the links if you have made interlinking with your posts then it will index your new post and give a good position to older post. But make sure make them properly.

7. Use 3-4% Keyword Destiny

I am sure that most of you had learned about this, if not then I am gonna explain this. Using the main keyword of the article so many time is called as keyword destiny. Most of new bloggers are unaware of this thing they write for just completing their lines and in result they get penalized by penguin. You must use keyword destiny in three to four % keep your blog out from penalties.

8. Say No to Keyword Stuffing

As I mentioned above some newbies use a keyword again and again for just completing their lines or paragraph, and this is the thing which Google hates specially & I've seen a lot of peoples who destroyed their blog by doing this shit. If we write an article about 100 words then we can use main keyword or any word for three times and so on for the same ratio.

Off Page SEO

1. Socializing Post After Publishing

So, you have took care of on page seo and published your article. Now it is the time to share your newly published article on social media sites like Facebook, Google Plus, Twitter because we can get a lot of traffic in very less time and even it helps to index newly published post in very less time. You should create Facebook Fan Page, Twitter , Google+ accounts for your blog and invite your friends to join that profiles.

2. Social Bookmarking 

There are so many bookmarking sites having high page rank, from where we can drive a lot of traffic and backlinks at a same time, it will help you for getting a good position in search engines. Some of them are StumbleUpon, Digg, Reddit,Delicious which I am using my self. You can also search many other social bookmarking sites from Google.

3. Create Backlinks After Publishing the Posts

It has it's own important as compared to above two. You must have to create backlinks for your newly published post, basically when you shared your post to social media sites and bookmarking site. It makes some backlinks for us. But after Publishing and sharing via above mentioned method I preferred to make more backlinks by commenting on others blog even they are not do follow enable but believe me it helps me a lot. You should also create backlinks for your new and old posts, if you can get dofollow backlinks then it is very good for you.
