Introduction
to Keywords - Part 1
Once
known, the keys to web site optimization are extremely simple to
understand.
The
trick is all in what we call “Keywords”. Basically,
every single web site page in existence that contains any text whatsoever,
possess a keyword or keyword’s. When a search engine sends
a spider to your web site, it will determine that pages keywords
by basically counting the words on the web page it is visiting.
The words that appear most frequently to the spider will become
your keywords. So in essence, whatever words are used the most on
a web page, have the most weight with search engines. Even if the
web page had only one word on it, that single word would be that
pages keyword.

Once
the spider has chosen the appropriate keyword or keywords for each
page, it then sends these keywords and the rest of the pages information
back to its search engine for categorizing and ranking. Your web
site will then be indexed based on your sites keywords. If you do
a search for a particular term on a search engine, how high your
site is ranked will be determined by the weight of that search term
on your site.
It is these very keywords that you must concentrate on if you wish
to achieve top positioning.
Not
only must we choose the right words, you must use them properly.
So far, it seems that the most important keywords are about the
first two per page. That means that if the word auto, is the most
frequently used word on a web page, that would be the pages keyword.
If the word automobile is the second most commonly used word, that
would be your second keyword. The second keyword is obviously not
as strong as the first but will still have some weight. The third
most commonly used word on a web page is next in line and so on.
It is important to know that every single page on your web site
has its own identity because of keywords.
Every
single page has its own keywords and can be individually submitted.
This really becomes important to those who want to gain ranking
on a number of different topics on the same web site.
