Search engine optimization for website

 
Website Page Layout - Part 1

We are now at the point of creating the HTML pages to place our keyword rich text on. For the most part, when starting a new site, most owners usually get caught up with the whole visual aspect of web sites. Fancy graphics and wonderful logos created in a million brilliant colors become their number one priority.

Most will believe that making the web site look good is the most important element of their new e-commerce site business venture. It is only afterwards that 99.9% of web site owners realize how important search engines are to their web sites success. However, the problem is that the majority of these fancy web sites have no chance of getting highly ranked.

A web site must be built every step of the way with optimization in mind. Every word and every graphic must be used properly or the site will fail. One mistake can spell disaster for the whole site. You may be asking yourself this question - Why are so many web site designers and programmers not following these simple guidelines? The answer is pretty simple. Most web site designers do not understand them. Over the last few years is seems that the internet business has exploded with the emergence of more and more graphics arts people. Everyone needs a web site today.

Someone must create the pages. A person with graphics arts experience will be able to construct a much more pleasant looking web site then someone who just took a few courses on web site building. The problem is that most of these graphic artists do not understand how the Internet works from a business stand point. They look at the Internet business as just another place to get work creating graphics. They never take the time to fully understand how the Internet works, let alone how search engines effect traffic.

Recently, I was helping a new client with his web site. I suggested allowing his existing Internet company to continue doing his web site work, but allowing my firm to help optimize his site. However, the first problem was to rectify some issues on his site. One major issue was that the graphics were much too large. This was making the site load very slow. It is a waste of time to spend money on web site optimization if the customers will not be able to download the site in the end.
