Hi Guys,
Happy new year to you all,
I have a question,
I am new to web design and SEO, but i read somewhere to use google keywords and copy and past all relevant words associated with your business behind images on your web site to increase traffic and subsequently increase your web rating.
I use IWeb06 (getting a new IMac at the end of the month)
Does this work and are there any draw backs from using this approach please.
Many Thanks
Glen
Hi Glen,
There are so much stuff to increase your page rank or drive traffic on your site(as what I understand on your concern). If you say "copying and pasting all relevant keywords(I think) associated with your business", that would be embarrassing, 'coz it can result much more likely to get your website ranked down or penalize because google and any other search engines can read how keywords are structured(I mean, they also know how to read like humans).
Your website could possibly ignored and will be treated as having a SPAMMY content.
As far as I concerned, just to give you an idea, the most important thing to make your website rank is your content(QUALITY). A content which are regularly updated and giving quality information to the readers. Doing that could naturally increase the traffic of your site and your page rank.
Eventually, your reader will bookmark and share your website's information using social media sites such digg, facebook, twitter, etc..and that will give you back links to your site.
There are many ways to increase your rank and drive traffic to your website, others are free and some are not. Such PPC or per per click by google adwords, that is a paid advertising and actually, you can get traffic in your site in just a matter of seconds or minutes after publishing your ads.
Of course, there are free ways, such article writing on the ezinearticles and other article directories, participating in forums, blog commenting, etc..
Hope this helps.
