Hello dear readers!

Today I'm gonna teach you how to optimize SEO, and become the first in google results. If you wonder what SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is, there are plenty of different definitions, but I'd say its a process of getting your website ranked higher in the search engines for certain keywords pertaining to your business. Now why is SEO important? Well, millions and millions of people use Google, Yahoo, MSN and different search engines every day. So if your blog or web-site is the first result for certain keyword, imagine the traffic you get each day. It pretty much, don't you think? So here's how to make your site ranked higher in the search engines:

Web adress
It's important that your URL contains most important keyword. So, if your blog is about dogs, you won't call your site www.cats.com, but www.dogs.com. It's maybe a stupid example but you get the point....

Meta tags
Meta tags are HTML tags that help you control how some search engines may index your site, by using the keywords and descriptions you provide. So, it tells search engines what's your site about. I found this generator, and with it it's pretty simple to make meta tags. You can place them just under the 'html' tag.

Backlinks
Backlinks are links on another website that are directed towards your website. They are important for SEO because search engines, especially Google, more like websites that have many backlinks, so the sites are positioned higher in the results.

Backlicks text
It's important that backlink text has you blog's keyword. So, if you have a dogs' website, baclink text would rather be 'Dogs' or 'Dog blog' than just 'Click here' or 'Check this out!'. By following this example your blog will again be positioned higher on the results list.

Keyword density
Try to keep this on optimum - not to high and not to low. If it's to high you will be, as they call it 'keyword spammer', and if it's to low... it's not gonna help you. I found this generator that checks the keyword density. I suggest you not to go over 9-10%.

Be grammatically correct
Google is like a language teacher - he likes when you write grammatically correct. Maybe it's not as important as upper suggestions but it still helps a little.

That's it for now, I hope it helped. Of course, nothing of this is gonna works unless you have submitted your page to search engines. You can do it here.
