Seo is Search Engine Optimization. A magician’s bag of tricks to get your website on high SERP (Search Engine Rank Placement ) and High PR (Page Rank). SERP is when you search on Google for a keyword (word you are studying) like cats, you receive a page of twenty web sites on cats back out of a hundred or thousand pages. SEO is the art of getting your web page listed for as many keywords pertaining to your site on the first page of hundreds. Since people have short time spans, they tend not to search ten pages of returns to find your page.

That is the short description on the subject. If that hasn’t answered your question quit reading.. Still curious? Below is a more in depth but only basic description. It still is a basic explanation even if it lacks MTV brevity.

To get high SERP you can bid on keywords, through Google and other search engines, you can bid on selective keywords. each time someone clicks on my ad in blue at the top and sides of Google pages (These are the auction listings, I will pay anywhere from .5 to $5 every time someone clicks on my site for the keywords I bid on. The one who bids the highest gets to be on the first page for cats. The rest of Google is suppose to be based on scholarly research qualifications).

So you need to find a keyword that people actually look for but not so many people are bidding on. You got to niche your keyword. To find the appropriate keywords you check your internet logs to see what words people used in search box to bring them to your site. Also there are online devices to use that suggest keywords and give a thesaurus of options along with how much times people searched for that keyword last month.

Then we get Page Rank which is based on how many people are linked to you. The higher page rank used to be higher SERP. But search engines change to keep ahead of SEO people. Google’s Jager update screwed me up. The Higher PR the higher you can charge someone to advertise on your page also, 10 is the highest. Now to get links you want people to link to you in the middle of a paragraph near the top of their page with reference to your desired keyword. By the way have you seen the updates to my Life Coaching site (www.docspond.org , but since html is outlawed in this editorial I display it this way without conventional a href tags)? This would be a better link, Natural linking, instead of a directory of 200 people to a page called mile high links. Natural linking is someone thinking of you more of an expert than just linking by subject as in Mile High. Sometimes the first ten can get points from robots to get high SERP on mile highs but these pages in general start out with lower wealth. So sites charge you a surcharge to be listed on a home page or the top of a directory. But you will never get anyone to click on these links, the only importance you get from them is robots.

Robots are programs that scour the net following all the links on your page to each other and all the ones you list to other sites. They check to see you have good code and list your words for their directory so people can find any phrase you placed on your site. Now links to other sites within three pages of your home page toward the top of each page get higher points than any deep in your site or towards the bottom of the page. Also they down score links if their is too many on a page.

To get your site index by robots you go to search engines and go to the bottom of the page and locate a link called submit your URL. there you put your address in and hit return. Anywhere from 3 weeks to four months it could take a robot to find you for the first time. Then it will index you once a month unless in your pages code in meta tags you tell it to visit each day if you like. Also it is good to submit URL on search engines every time you change your home page. More times you change your home page the better for points.

Some engines charge you to be listed. But in time they will index you because people on their engine have links to your site that their robots will follow to you. Then you are indexed for free. Yahoo charges to be listed in their business directory some thing like $300 a year. Make Money on Internet today is easier than you think.

Now to get links is a tiresome process of sending out hundreds of emails with a friendly greeting, Your site title with appropriate keyword placement in it, and site description. For them listing you, you give them a reciprocal link with their title and description on your link page. You can get people to link to you as an expert through natural linking. You can do the same for them. But if you get a link without giving one, it equals you higher points. Which in turn give you higher SERP. Other way to get natural links is to create something buzz worthy or give free tools. If you have a cool video of someone winning a Darwin Award, some one might say ” Check this out!” and link to your site. If it is a popular page you get more points for the link. or if you have a free tool like this, Whois (I can find out your IP address from your computer from my web log and see which state and country you come from and your Internet provider to bitch too), Keyword finder, or Favicon creators ( Tiny icons that appear at the top of the browser to the left of the URL). Make Money on Internet websites if marketed well,can reap you great rewards.

Last but not least are RSS, Blogs, Newsletters, and Editorial submission. RSS is real Simple Syndication. It is a poor mans AP wire service. People have attachments to their browsers called aggregators that read this peculiar code. It can also have placement on your web page. Say you have a feed from the latest news updated daily by the New York Times which helps keep fresh content on your site to get points. Or you can have people list your articles on their site giving you links back to your site. Then we have Blogs. If you blog you will put a link back to your other page. When this gets higher PR so does your other site. Also it is something else to attract clients to you in another arena. Also every time you comment on a board or blog, make sure you link back to your site in your signature. All post tend to be indexed by robots. If they find your link they come back to your page and give you points. Then the newsletters you create will do the same. Links from emails count too. If you click on the links above, you will give points to that web site. But mostly newsletters are marketing to gather sales and inform the public about your product. Then we have article submission. By submitting articles to directories, they get published by other web sites and provide links back to your site. So finally Making Money can be easy, rewarding and last but not lest, fun.
