Secret Tips of SEO

Posted on December 8, 2008 by Harish Nerella | 1 Comment

SEO

1. Creating a duplicate title tag is one of the most common mistakes in SEO work. The title tag is the words or phrases, which appear at the top of the browser when the page is displayed and is what the search engines display for the first line of the site link in their results. Search engines give a lot of importance to the title tags. When more than one page displays the same title tag, the search engines discount those pages’ importance.

2. Although Meta tags have off late lost their significance in the larger search engines, it is possible to misuse them, which in the long run damage the site. For more details go to www.offline-promotion.com the biggest mistake with Meta tags is for the Meta description to be the same for every page. Pages with duplicate Meta descriptions can never fetch good rankings. The same goes for the Meta keywords tag .Only those keywords found on that page should appear in the keyword tag. Also, one has to remember not to put the same word in the Meta tag descriptions more than thrice.

3. Internal linking very often creates a big problem. Too many links in a site can force the search engine spider to quit indexing the site before it is actually finished. Google restricts a site from having not more than 100 links on a page. It is of course better to restrict it at 50 links.

For better SEO results, the links should always be made with text. Many web designers use images for their linking. This is not at all effective for optimization purposes. When more than one page displays the same title tag, the search engines discount those pages’ importance. Another important to keep in mind is that the navigation system should never be in any form of java script, Flash, or image map. It is always advisable to remember, not to stuff keywords by having too many links on the same page with the same word or words.

And last but not the least, it is important to keep multiple links on every page of your site has. Pages, which have only one incoming link, cannot expect good ranks. They may even be placed into Google’s supplemental index. For more details go to www.keyword-swipe.com It can be difficult to work a page out of the supplemental index once it is in there.

4. linking to other sites have to be done with lot of care too. Spamming has become such a problem that the search engines have really changed their algorithms with respect to linking. A musical instrument site simply cannot be linked to a kitchen apparatus site. The incoming links needed to be coming from related sites or sites with a similar theme.

1. Use of External Scripts :
If you use the same script on multiple pages of your site then use of external script can help reduce loading time. ;) I don’t mean to host them remotely. I mean to load Javascript from the same source. Example :

This way the browser caches the script and it won’t have to read it again and again.

2. Reduce HTTP requests :
Loading each item on your website, has an average round-trip latency of 0.2 seconds. So if your site is loading 10 items, regardless of whether they are stylesheets, images or scripts, that equates to 2 seconds in latency alone. If you have a portion on your site with many images within it, such as your footer, you can reduce the number of HTTP requests with image maps. If you are using K2, you can get rid on one extra HTTP request by using one stylesheet, style.css, and no schemes.

3. Don’t Rely on other WebSites :
Relying on other sites can also decrease site loading time. If you have several component on your site loading from other sites then it can slow down page loading speed because the other server might be receiving too many HTTP requests.

4. Optimize your Images :
Always use the “Save for the web” feature included on image editing software(such as PhotoShop). Images represent the heavier load on virtually any website so make sure you are optimizing them. Alternatively you can also turn to an online image optimizer.

5. Remove WhiteSpace :
Whitespace is the spaces between your coding, removing the unneeded tabs and spaces can help a lot. Doing this will take a lot of extra bytes off the total size of your page and will speed up load time quite a bit.

6. Use of CSS and CSS Optimization :
CSS can greatly improve your web sites load time. With your styles in an external .css file, the browser can cache all the formatting and stylizing for your pages and it won’t have it read it again and again. Make sure you aggregate and clean your CSS. You can use CleanCSS to merge similar selectors, remove useless properties and remove the whitespace from your code.

7. When a user opens a link on the form “http://www.ddomains.com/contact” the server will need to figure what kind of file or page is contained on that address. If you include a slash (/) at the end of the link the server will already know that this is a directory page, reducing the load time of the site.

8. Which Image Format to use? :
You should use GIF or PNG image format. The GIF format should be used with flat-color images like logos or buttons. PNG works very similar to GIF but it supports more colors. JPEG format is suitable for photographs or true-color images.

9. Use of Height and Width tags :
Height and Width tags are also important for your images(never forget to add them). Those tags will make sure that the browser knows the size of the image before loading it. The result is that it will reserve a spot for the images while loading the rest of the page, speeding up the whole process.

10. Use of Caching :
Use WP-Cache plug-in if you are using a Wordpress blog.
*Set the browser’s cache expiration. This can be easily done using PHP in order to send some headers. For example, let’s take a js file called scripts.js. In order to use caching we will create a new file called scripts.js.php and add the following code at the very beginning of it which will set the cache to expire in 3 days :

header("Content-type: text/javascript; charset: UTF-8");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate");
$offset = 60 * 60 * 24 * 3;
$ExpStr = "Expires: " .
gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s",
time() + $offset) . " GMT";
header($ExpStr);
?>

And last but not the least, host your site on a fast server or buy a dedicated server for hosting your sites(like i have bought). ;)
