Build Your Site Visibility by Using SEO Techniques

SEO Techniques

Nowadays everyone wants their site on top of Search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc.). So, they apply different methodologies like advertising, paid listings, press releases, and much more. But most of the time they don’t follow the basic rules of SEO for website building and it results in sites' invisibility on popular search engines.

To avoid such results Seogdk explores some basic SEO techniques which play a very important role in the initial website-building process. These valuable SEO tips are mentioned below:

-Use 302 Redirects Only for Long or Ugly URLs

HTTP 302 redirects are temporary redirects. The only time you should use them is for redirecting ugly URLs to more user-friendly ones. This tells the search engine that the ugly URL should not be removed from the index because the user-friendly URL is just to make the URL palatable. Keep in mind that many spammers use 302 redirects to fool search engines. So be judicious in your use of them.

-Use 301 Redirects for Permanent Redirects

When you redirect your pages, you should always use a 301 HTTP server redirect. This tells the search engines that the redirect is permanent and that they should change their index to use the new URL. Spammers use other types of redirects (HTTP 302 redirects and meta-refresh), so they are not a good idea to use.

-Create an XML Sitemap or Google Sitemap

Search engines love sitemaps - not necessarily for ranking, but for finding links on your site. It's not critical that you create an XML sitemap or Google sitemap, plain HTML sitemaps work just as well.

-Keep Your Website Live as Long as Possible

Older pages (in the same domain) will rank higher than newer ones.

-Keep Your Website Content Inside One Theme

The theme or topic of your entire site is important as well. If you have a lot of pages all-around one basic theme that will lend more credibility to each page that follows that same theme.

-Create as much Content as You can

Content is king. The more content you have on your site, the more there is to be indexed and appear in search engines.

-Try to Get Links from .edu, and .gov Sites

Sites that are on .edu and .gov top-level domains have a large amount of credibility because they are very difficult to get. So if you can get the designers of those sites to link to you that gives your site more credibility as well.

-Try to Get Links from Similar Sites

Inbound links from sites similar to your own are important as well. This indicates that your site does have content related to that topic. Plus, it indicates that your competition finds your site valuable, and that gives your site more credibility.

-Try to Get Links from Reputable Sites

Reputable sites that link to you will increase your reputation. After all, if a reputable site feels that your site is valuable enough to link to, that means that your page has more value. You can tell if a site is considered reputable both by how high it appears in search engines and its Google Page Rank. Also, .edu sites have a higher reputation because they represent schools and universities.
