Zenchi 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2004 Correct me if I'm incorrect, but do not <a> tags have alts to them? I can't remember what exactly, but it works like the description of an image. I haven't used them for about 3 years, as I'm not one for SEO (Yet.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pawoodster 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2004 Doorway pages are nothing short of spam and will get you banned by google in the long term. Use web position gold to check things like your keyword density. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fernan 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2004 thanks for that great advice pawodster! yeah you're right google blacklist websites that spam their search engine! But have you tried cloaking your webpages i,ve read some articles that cloacking increases their page rank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pawoodster 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2004 I have tried cloaking webpages and I've never known it to increase my serps. However, I don't deny that with a new site that has a cloaked domain with a shorter url would rank better than a non-optimised site with a long irrelevant url.I have one site that ranks #1 on google for its search terms with the subdomain url, but can't be found with its cloaked url. Google tends to look for the most relevant of the two domain names and chooses one over the other. Cloaking is also known as Aname pointing whereas a Cname permanent redirect will change all your records to your new domain name and should keep your serps.You can use white hat or black hat seo techniques. Just don't moan when your black hat techniques get you banned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fernan 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2004 looks like you know more about SEO i am very interested in search engine positioning! better if you post tutorials about seo here! :PBTW how big your website that ranks well in major search engines I have websites but they are nowhere maybe they are banned because i thought before doorways are good! what a stupid idea!!

pawoodster 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2004 Well all my sites rank well - and that's not blowing my own trumpet. None of them are huge though. Some are flash, some are html. It requires time more than anything else. If you install google toolbar and check the pagerank slider you will know whether you are banned or not. It should be green or just white. if it is grey you've been banned.If you post the url I can check it.Doorways do work - don't get me wrong and most black hat seo works too with google. They aren't known for being too clever at weeding this stuff out. However, when they do you'll get bombed out of the water.If you want proper seo advice and forums go to http://www.seochat.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pawoodster 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2004 Do yo design your own websites? how long does it tkes to finished optimizing each website? by the way can you give me idea how to rank well this website!! this is the only one that i make income! http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/I do design websites for people but I'm not a web designer. With regards to the technical side I'm not too clever when it comes to php etc. The problem most web designers have is that they build a nice, shiny site then the client wonders why it isn't working. You should optimise as the site is being built. Optimising as an afterthought is much harder work and a damn sight more expensive.The time it takes to optimise a website can depend on a few things. One of the most basic ones is how competitive your keyword is. For example, web design is almost pointless and impossible to optimise for. But, cheap web design ohio isn't.There are varying degrees of optimisation. And no site is ever optimised when you take into consideration link building and search engines changing the way they index sites.The basic things anyone can do is:#1 Consider what your keywords are and check them out at https://www.wordtracker.com/#2 Write your website copy with these keywords in mind.#3 Write your meta tags with your keywords in mind.#4 Submit to various directories by hand and start linking to relevant websites.I like your site, but their are just a few problems you can sort fairly quickly.#1 Your title and description are just keyword lists - your title should be shorter and your description should basically describe.#2 Your native language obviously isn't English so your general website copy seems a little odd to English speakers and to spiders alike.Is it a relatively new site? I see you have a few backlinks. I think you're going in the right direction. Most of all - be patient - these things can take time y'know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fernan 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2004 wow! thanks for that! i made this website last march. I put those keyword in the title hoping it will rank well in yahoo because i see yahoo results came from title and descriptions.I do submit this website to certain directories and search engines.I also read that link partners are good in search engine ranking.. I have a php script that will automate all the works in link exchange i dont know if its good and im not sure if it will work in link popularity its called autolinks im planning to put it in all my pages so that each page has their own link partner and ranks well in Search Engines.Question about DMOZ, I submit my websites to them but i think they dont accept websites anymore because as i did the add url page does not change i mean no status if the site is submitted or not.

The title is too long and is just a list of keywords. You need to focus your keywords - think about what your business is and does. I noticed you have 460 results when you do a search for benjancreations on google. Autolinks should be ok so olong as you don't link to irrelevant sites. Google prefers relevant links ie sites that are similar to yours. Google doesn't want you to be linking to viagra sites and such and since the Florida update has penalised sites accordingly. Try http://www.linkmarket.com/Don't worry about dmoz - they can take ages to list you.Is your site a frames site? How did you make it? All your pages seem to end in index.html.I strongly advise you to sort your title and description out as well as your page copy. That would be the first thing.
