Website Ranking Key Words Things to Think About Before You Start Designing
I designed a website once for streaming audio, this was the key word I was to use streaming website audio, this sounds like a good key word phrase or is it!
When it got onto Google it made number one, wow I thought I should get lots of hits with this? I got a grand total of 0 hits, why do you think that was?
Itâ''s all to do with supply and demand only around 135 people typed these key words in and the demand is around 620000 websites doing the same thing.
When you pick your key words there needs to be a good demand for those key words. You can get lots of software that will look this up for you.
Spend time looking up key words that work else like me you can have a very good website all keyed for these words and get 0 hits.
I started to think it was the design of the site, words like "FREE page ranking" would seem to be a good key phrase but the demand is 0 for this, humm this sounds a good phrase and so did 1650000 other website designers, so because I have looked up the phrase I now no not to spend hours designing a web page for this phrase.
Your website needs to be relevant to the phrase your using, If I type into Google "Website promotion" I expect to get sites for website Promotion, not a cook book!
This is why Google do what they do, they spider your web pages and the key words are taken, these are from bits like the page title area, tags, links, hyper links and even the text that comes up when you hover over a picture.
Google also look to see the number of good links that point to your website, think about putting your url in your signature in any forum you have joined.
Key words need to be common and there needs to be a demand have a look at Nichefinder or some other software that will look up this information, it will save you months of time and work.

Being a webmaster is a much more important job than most companies would dare admit. Webmasters are responsible for the company web presence on every level, from the website copy to the web and email server administration. Additionally, webmasters are often tasked even more duties that should be considered unrelated responsibilities for the position of webmaster. These extra duties often will include online as well as offline promotion and marketing, search optimization, advertising, application programming, graphic design and/or brand management. The role of the webmaster has grown over the years and webmasters need to grow with the company's expectations or the website will not succeed. For instance, it is easy to get banned from the search engines for not knowing the correct methods to use to optimize a website for a better results ranking from the search engines for any particular search phrase.
This is why Webmastery is here, not just to offer direction and assist webmasters, but to do so masterfully, as you expect of yourself, or as your company expects out of you.
Since I am an American and know only American English and SEO methods, I specialize in American Webmastery. Hence the domain name, Webmastery.US.
However, please note that often both sides of the coin are presented here. Some webmasters swear by Linux and we offer articles by such authors to give insight to their creativity. Others are die-hard Microsoft software fans and use Windows based servers. Despite the bias, each system has its own advantages, and such articles are reprinted here for their positive contribution to those platforms, not to enforce their bias. It is we that have to make the final analysis.
This difference is even more apparent when I am showcasing and promoting white hat SEO (search engine optimization) and a black hat SEO article is published here, which method if followed could get a website banned from the search engines. The reason I allow it a small platform is to showcase its apparent and obvious idiocy in contrast to white hat SEO techniques. And as I cannot edit these articles in order to correct them, I let their illogicality and stupidity stand on their own for a time without any edits. But in case their spaminess is not apparent, I often do not let such articles stand long.
