 | View Full Version : Getting my clients site to come up on Google oldguard60 08-24-2006, 02:47 AM I have a client (taylor-madeinteriors dot com dot au) that wants to see their site come up (in Australia only) when someone does a search for things like: fitout commercial interiors rework etc. How can I best make this happen?? Thanks OG60 ChrisF79 08-28-2006, 03:12 PM Use those keywords in the text of the site. oldguard60 08-28-2006, 05:03 PM Chris, Thanks for that. I thought there was somewhere in the html that I could put these words. Do you know where I can put them in the html (that doesn't mess up the page)?? Thx OG bluedreamer 08-28-2006, 05:26 PM There are mainly 3 places to put key wording "in the html". Page title Meta description Meta keywords More importantly your copy text should be relevant and include the key words and phrases that you want search engines to find. Getting listed in any search is not guaranteed although the major ones usually find you, so long as there is at least one site linking to you. Your best bet is to visit each search engine and manually add your url so they can send their robots out to index your site. oldguard60 08-28-2006, 05:39 PM Thanks for that. I am a newbie here and with HTML. Where exactly do I put the key words??? Here is the html (partially) for the page in question OG -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" <head><META name="verify-v1" content="Zzbx3lBu5yIp4SgZWpgW+oSUgX2re1+WGfzrL7F6+LQ=" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <title>TAYLORMADE COMMERCIAL INTERIORS</title> <link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head><META name="verify-v1" content="Zzbx3lBu5yIp4SgZWpgW+oSUgX2re1+WGfzrL7F6+LQ=" /> perpetual 08-28-2006, 11:01 PM Thanks for that.

For example, this one has <meta name="keywords" content="Getting my clients site to come up on Google, web hosting forum,webhosting,hosts,bandwidth,servers,cobalt raq,nt hosting,unix hosting,host reviews,dedicated servers,colocation,host search, community" / > <meta name="description" content="Getting my clients site to come up on Google Web Design and Content" /> You already have a <title> and of course, the body content of your site needs to have your key words oldguard60 08-29-2006, 12:29 AM Stupid question, but I am a newbie. If I sent you the page, could you show me EXACTLY where I need to put the keywords (and how to do it)??? If you agree, send me your email address. Thx OG osteoarthitis 08-29-2006, 06:37 AM i think we can do it followinf the search engine optimisationn tools or somwhat the traffic geek may also do somthing bluedreamer 08-29-2006, 07:58 AM You put them between the <head> tags <head> <title>TAYLORMADE COMMERCIAL INTERIORS</title> <meta name="keywords" content="insert your keywords here" / > <meta name="description" content="insert your description here" /> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> Maybe 08-29-2006, 08:26 AM Search "free site optimization" on google. To get good results in google, its helpful to have your link on some high ranking sites. You can do this through affiliate, link exchanges etc. Oh...and submit the site to http://dmoz.org/ . oldguard60 08-29-2006, 05:06 PM Thanks for all of your help and ideas. OG |
