How Manipulating Search Engines ?



There’s one more topic to touch on before this chapter is finished. SEO is about manipulating search
engines — to an extent. Beyond that, the manipulation becomes something more sinister and you
run the risk of having your web site removed from the search engine rankings completely. It’s true.
It happens.

So what exactly can and can’t you do? There’s a list. Here is part of it.
You can:
_ Create a web site that contains meta tags, content, graphics, and keywords that help
improve your site ranking.
_ Use keywords liberally on your site, so long as they are used in the correct context of
your site topic and content.
_ Include reciprocal links to your site from others as long as those links are legitimate and
relevant.
_ Encourage web site traffic through many venues, including keyword advertising, reciprocal
links, and marketing campaigns.
_ Submit your web site to search engines manually, rather than waiting for them to pick up
your site in the natural course of cataloging web sites.
You can’t:
_ Trick search engines by imbedding hidden keywords in your web site. This is a practice
that will very likely get you banned by most search engines.
_ Artificially generate links to your site from unrelated sites for the purpose of increasing
your ranking based on link analysis. Most search engines have a built-in mechanism that
will detect this type of deceptive practice.
_ Artificially generate traffic to your web site so that it appears more popular than it is. Again,
there are safeguards in place to prevent this from happening, and if you trip those safeguards,
you could end up on the banned list for many search engines.
_ Force your web site to appear in search engine rankings by submitting the site repeatedly
for inclusion in the rankings. A good general rule of thumb is that you should submit your
site once and then wait at least six weeks before submitting it again. Submitting it repeatedly
will, again, only lead to something nasty like being banned from the search engine.
_ Expect search engines to automatically rank you at the top of your topic, category, or keyword
as soon as the site is picked up. It could take a little time to build the “status” that
you need to reach a high search engine ranking. Remember, SEO is a process.
These are just basic rules for putting search engines to work for you. There are many more, which you
will discover in the coming chapters. As you get started, however, keep these in mind, because you’ll
see them over and over again throughout the course of this book and any other research that you
might be doing on search engine optimization.

Understanding Organic SEO

Image
All this talk about planning for SEO is great, but what about organic SEO . You don’t have to put any efforts into that, do you? Don’t go foolin’ yourself. Organic SEO is just as much work as any other type of SEO. It’s just a Click source image little different method of creating a site optimized for search ranking, without having to implement any new technologies or spend a lot of time submitting your site to different primary and secondary search engines. And really, the distinction here is a very general one. Only SEO purists consider “real SEO” as being strictly organic — meaning you use no fee-based services whatever. Most people are happy with “just plain SEO,” which usually means a combination of organic and fee-based. It’s best if you just think of SEO as just SEO; then you don’t have to worry about distinctions that aren’t really important in optimizing your web site. The definitions of organic SEO vary a little, depending on whom you talk to

What's secondary search engines ?

Image
Secondary search engines are targeted at smaller, more specific audiences, although the search engine’s content itself is still general. They don’t generate as much traffic as the primary search engines, but they’re useful for regional and more narrowly focused searches. Examples of secondary search engines include Lycos, LookSmart, Miva, Ask.com, and Espotting. Secondary search engines, just like the primary ones, will vary in the way they rank search results. Some will rely more heavily upon keywords, whereas others will rely on reciprocal links. Still others might rely on criteria such as meta tags or some proprietary criteria. Secondary search engines should be included in any SEO plan. Though these search engines might not generate as much traffic as the primary search engines, they will still generate valuable traffic that should not be overlooked. Many users of secondary search engines are users because they have some loyalty to that specific search e
