| Building a solid SEO foundation is a major aspect of successful web design. Follow these seven basics to get your search engine optimization efforts, and your website, off to a great start: Selecting the right keywords – The keywords and phrases which are optimized will ultimately determine the quality and quantity of the visitors that come to your site. Select the right terms and you’ll be rewarded with solid traffic numbers and targeted visitors. The wrong keywords won’t deliver much traffic and a high percentage of untargeted visitors that do arrive will bounce off quickly. Conduct a deep dive into keyword research to define the terms which will drive cost effective traffic to the site. Add fresh, relevant, and high quality content consistently – Search engines reward dynamic sites which consistently add relevant content. Your visitors will appreciate it as well. The key is to make sure to balance the content so that the relevance of keywords is recognized by search engine spiders while providing quality information to visitors. If the site has pictures, add detailed captions – Search spiders don’t know what to with images so describing them in detail with keyword-rich text is a must. Create a site map - A site map is a page which provides listings and links to the other major pages on your site. This makes navigation and search of the site easier for spiders. Provide internal links – Internal links can help with both SEO and user experience. Relevant terms used as anchors which take visitors deeper into the site affirm the landing page’s importance with search spiders. Additionally, visitors who go deeper into the site are more likely to stick around, leave contact information, and/or make a purchase. Monitor and test – Tracking SEO efforts to determine strengths and weaknesses is essential for the site to operate at as high a level as possible. Analysis of both on and offsite activities allows for weak keywords to be discarded and weak points on the site to be fixed. Limit the use of Flash and Ajax – They may look great but Flash and Ajax don’t add anything to the site in terms of SEO. Splash pages and slower loading due to these applications can also be a negative on the user experience side of the equation.
