Your website will be banned

Sometime when seo experts are performing seo process then one thing is in their mind and that one thing is to see their website in search engines against targeted keywords and to achieve this thing they often commit mistakes or blunder, sometime this is mistake and sometime this is cheating. No matter whether you commit mistake or cheat search engine, if you caught then your website will be surely banned.
To avoid website to be banned, please avoid these irresponsible methods.

Cloaking
Cloaking is just like a picture, as you listen that every pictures has two sides, exactly cloaking is a process in which seo expert creates webpage that has two sides, one side will show when any user from internet access the webpage and other version come in front when search engine visits the webpage. So Cloaking is use to handle search engine and show a version of webpage to search engine that contains lot of keywords and other activities that effects search engine for increasing PR of the webpage. But if Google or any other search engine finds that this webpage is using Cloaking technique then surely website will be banned because they want to have same things for users as well as search engines.

Keyword Stuffing
Keyword stuffing is a process in which seo experts does repeat the keywords again and again in the content and meta tags to attract the search engine for Higher PR, but this is just foolishness as when search engine finds the repetition of the same words then they banned the website as they consider this as spamming. So avoid these techniques if you are seo experts.

Hidden text
Sometime seo experts use hidden text or links that are visible to search engines but not to the visitors of the website. Normally they use the same text color that the background of webpage for the purpose of improving no of keywords in webpage. This technique is open cheating and when search engine finds this then surely the website will be banned.

Duplicate Content
Sometime seo experts use same content for multiple pages to increase PR of the webpage. Search Engines doesn’t likes duplicated content and they totally banned that website and not visit further more. You just make sure that no one is stealing the content of your website by providing unique phrase to search engine and then search engine will lists all the websites that are using that unique phrase. If you found any website stealing your content then report that website to search engines and also take a legal action against that website.

Bad neighborhoods

Sometimes seo experts place the link of the website that they are optimizing to the website that is not relevant to their website. For example if your website is related to medical field and you are placing the link of your website to the bollywood related websites for just getting backlinks then search engine will ban your website. So avoid this process.

Sending automated queries
Sometimes seo experts optimize the websites in a way that are giving automated queries for more pages to be cached by robots. If this technique caught then your website will be banned.

Note:-
People use these techniques just to improve the PR of the WebPages but due to having on wrong side they infect banned their websites. Website banning means search engine will never ever visit your website. If you website has been banned then please remove these factors and then re submit the website to the search engines.

Role of Meta tags in Search Engine Optimization

There is a need to concentrate first our word “meta” rather than meta tags to clear the concepts. If your concepts are clear then you will come to know the real importance of meta tags.

Meta Data
The Meta Data is a data that defines other data. Yeah its work like dictionary, in dictionary we have different words that defines the meaning with the help of other words, same is meta data. Meta Data defines other Data.

Meta Tags and Search Engine Optimization
Meta Tags were very famous in the eyes of Search Engine, in the beginning search engine give high priority to meta tags and then other factors for seo to rank the webpage but now scene is different. Still meta tag is very important for seo but now it doesn’t have same weight age that it had in past. MSN considers meta tags very much than other search engines. Google and yahoo want other factors too for search engine optimization and then they give each factor normally same weight age.

Meta tag plays important role for building the PR of webpage. You must place your keywords in the meta tags in order to better optimize your website.

Whenever any user performs any search in google then google displays the lists of website having. Google displays the websites according to a standard and the standard is to display the title of homepage of your website as a hyperlink and then display the description that you provided in the meta tags as a text under that hyperlink. Hence proof that meta tags are very important but it is foolishness to just rely over meta tags and don’t perform any On Page or Off page Optimization.

Attributes of Meta Tags
There are two main attributes of meta tags that are playing vital role in seo process and they are “Keywords and Description”.

Syntax of Meta Tags
" meta content="description of the webpage comes here" name="description"
" meta content="first keyword, second keyword, third keyword" name="keywords"
Try to use three to four keywords in meta keywords tag and one to two keywords in description tag. Don’t use heavy description. You can use maximum of 100 characters for better seo purpose. You can also use Keyword Phrases in your meta keywords tag.


There are some more meta tags other than keywords and description but these are not fruitful for seo purpose, so ignore them. Meta title tag is also included in these other meta tags, some seo expert says that you must use this meta tags while some says not to use this. I also recommend not using this meta tag as there is already a title placed in the head tag of html, so optimize that title tag and try to use maximum of two keywords there.

Social Bookmarks and their importance in seo campaign

What are Bookmarks?

Sometimes during the surfing of different websites in internet you like some websites and then save these websites in your favorites as a bookmark. Whenever you want to access those websites you just go to the favorites folder and then click over that particular website that you want to access. Normally when you bookmark any website to favorites folder then during this process the title of that website is visible in Name: textbox and by default the Create In: field contains the path of your favorites folder, you can organize that website over folders that you made in favorites folder for categorizing the website in order to quickly easy access the website of particular category.

Example:- You are reading the article related to search engine optimization so if you like this article or blog then you also wish to save this in your favorites folder for easy access at next time, it also prevents you to learn the url of the website, so you will click over favorites menu and click over Add to favorites and then its up to you where you place the website, but I refer you to make new folder and name it as seo and then save this website there and every time when you like any website that is related to seo then save that website too in seo folder located in your favorites in order to categorize the website.

MSN Optimization

The effective seo campaign needs to optimize your website for all popular search engines. No matter Google is No.1 search engine and Yahoo is No.2 (According to searches perform in internet) but my dear what’s about no 3 search engine? You will also have to optimize it and that Number third search engine is MSN.

So if you want to get additional traffic then please optimize your website for MSN too. Optimizing of MSN is necessary as MSN is default search engine in Microsoft’s Product such as home version of Windows XP and in the proposed Longhorn application, many new Internet users will be searching via the MSN search engine option. MSN Search engine is also working as a default search engine in Internet Explorer. Like other Search Engines MSN Also first spiders the pages on the Web, indexes them in its database and after that applies the algorithm to generate the pages with the search results.


It is very amazing thing that many search engine optimization experts totally ignore MSN Optimization during their campaign. So please you don’t include yourself among those. Let’s see the steps that you must perform to optimize your website for MSN and help MSNBot and other web crawlers effectively index and rank your site.

Key steps to optimize your website for MSN


  • Use only well-formed HTML code in your pages, perform HTML Validation over your code before submitting your website too MSN.


  • All links open the correct web page and there MUST be no broken link in your website. If your site contains broken links, MSNBot may not be able to index your site effectively, thus preventing people from reaching all of your pages.


  • If you move a page, set up the page's original URL to redirect people to the new developed page. Also you must indicate whether the move is permanent or temporary.


  • Make sure MSNBot is allowed to crawl your site and isn't on your list of web crawlers that are prohibited from indexing your site. If you will allow MSNBot to crawl then your website will be index else MSN doesn’t know any magic to automatically crawl your website.


  • Use a robots.txt file or meta tags to direct MSNBot and other web crawlers to index your site.


  • MSN still relies heavily on meta tags, so well optimized your meta tags and check your meta tag through any meta tag analyzer, the best one is http://www.rankingtoday.com


  • MSN gives high priority to your On Page Optimization over off Page Optimization.


  • Keep your URLs simple and static. URLs that are complicated or that change frequently are difficult to use as link destinations. For example, the URL www.yourwebsite.com/mainpage is easier for MSNBot to crawl. Try to prevent yourself from dynamic urls when you are doing on Page Optimization. Also, a URL that doesn't change is easier for people to remember.


  • Make your website user friendly as well as search engine friendly.


  • Never use frame.


  • Keep habit of using JavaScript as less as you can.


  • The best way to attract people to your site, and keep them coming back, is to design your pages with valuable content that your target audience is interested in.


  • Text mut be relavent to the targeted keywords.


  • Use targeted keywords in your text too in order to get better results.


  • Try to have your website navigation at left side of the webpage. Use your targeted keywords at beginning of your website’s content.
  • Dynamic content also increases PR of your website.


  • The size of web page also counts for MSN Optimization. Am HTML Page with no pictures should be under 150 KB. If you are working over Blog then you must have one post in every page.


  • Make sure that each page is accessible by at least one static text link.


  • Don't put the text that you want indexed inside images. For example, if you want your company name or address to be indexed, make sure it is not displayed inside a company logo.


  • Add a site map to help MSNBot to visit your websites.


  • You must work site hierarchy. each page should only be from one to three clicks away from the home page.


  • Don’t heavily used keywords in your content and also don’t use irrelevant keywords to increase a page’s keyword density. Place average keywords in your meta tags and content.

  • Don’t use hidden text or links else your website will be Banned.

  • Using techniques such as link farms can also ban your website over MSN.


  • Submitting your site doesn't guarantee that your site will be indexed, but it does help MSN to locate your site so that MSNBot can try to crawl it. MSNBot doesn't automatically crawl sub-pages on your website. If you want MSNBot to index other pages on your website, submit URLs for those pages. MSNBot may crawl sub-pages that are linked to from other websites.

Google Adwords VS Google Adsense

Google adwords and Google adsense are two services provided by Google. Let’s see both of them in detail because there's a difference between Adwords and Adsense, it needs to be clearer to people who don’t know about them but want to know.


Google Adwords Normally when any user performs any search process in google by providing any search criteria and then hit the Google Search button, he founds the desire results against his query but what are the links that are shown on the right side of the page under heading Sponsored Links, ok don’t worry, these are the Google Adwords. For the quick example, please type business in the google search box and then click the Google Search Button, at the left side of the search page you will find google Adwords under heading of “ Sponsored Links”.

Google Adwords program enable you to put your company ads in Google and their network of partner sites. When any user performs search process in Google against any keywords that are related to your ads, Google will display your ads in the search page(You normally see these adds at right of the Google when you performed any search and also in gmail too). Adwords is known as a form of pay-per-click advertising.

Google has also ratings for Adwords that ads from which company should be shown against search process related to these ads, google has ratings for Adwords due to race of competition. Every company wants from Google to display their ads when any user performs search process.

Advantages of Google Adwords
The one and main advantage of google adwords is heavy traffic that comes to your website due to the Adwords. Yeah, adwords generates heavy traffic to your website, so if you have started your business right now and you want to quickly introduce your business to the world then Google Adwords is the best resource that brings your business in the front of world so quickly and generates heavy traffic.

Google Adsense
The Google AdSense program differs in that it delivers Google AdWords ads to individuals' websites. Google then pays web publishers for the ads displayed on their site based on user clicks on ads or on ad impressions, depending on the type of ad. No one knows how many amount Google charges from Advertiser of ads against any click or ad impressions.

What languages does AdSense support?
Google AdSense supports publishers in several different languages. Applications for participation in the program can be for sites with content primarily in:



  • Arabic

  • Bulgarian

  • Chinese (simplified)

  • Chinese (traditional)

  • Croatian

  • Czech

  • Danish

  • Dutch

  • English

  • Finnish

  • French

  • German

  • Greek

  • Hebrew

  • Hungarian

  • Italian

  • Japanese

  • Korean

  • Norwegian

  • Polish

  • Portuguese

  • Romanian

  • Russian

  • Serbian
  • Slovak

  • Spanish

  • Swedish

  • Turkish


In addition, AdSense for search is available in Indonesian, Thai, and Vietnamese. These languages are not supported for AdSense for content pages.
You can select your site's primary language during the application process. If you're approved, AdSense will serve relevant ads to your pages in the appropriate language, even if your site contains multiple supported languages.

Adsense can ruin your business
Yeah, Adsense can ruin your business because adsense makes your website the billboard of your competitors so it is best to use adsense if your website is providing tutorials like facility but if you are managing your business through your website then putting adsense in your website is very big mistake and adsense can ruin your business.

Complete Process: From Google Adwords to Google Adsense
If you are advertiser (A person who advertise the ads of his company using Google Adwords).You essentially create an account, insert your advertisement, pick the maximum amount you are willing to pay per click on your ad and then submit your credit card. You advertisement will then go live once the credit card is approved. Every time someone clicks on your ad, Google bills your account. Every couple of weeks or when your bill reaches a certain amount, Google will actually charge your credit card. Now for instance, any other person “ABC” wants to display your ads in his website and want to become a publisher (Publisher is a person who displays the Google Adwords in his website)then he visits the google adsense website which is http://www.google.com/adsesne and create his account in gmail, if already not made, then the process of how Google Adsense should look in your website is started and then he choose layout, different color for Ads that will display in his website. After this process google will sent email to your account and ask you to wait for approval and then normally after a day the google will sent you Adsense code , its up to you where u place this code at right at top, left or any where else you want to place, just place the code and google will show Ads there. When any user come to your website and click on the ads, google wil deduct the money from Advertiser’s account and give publisher to some percent of the money. Publisher can see the revenue that he gets through Google Adsense by logging in to his account in Google Adsense and then go to reports.

Google plays the role of Bridge between Advertisers and Publishers or Google is palying a role of bridge between Adwords and Adsense

Tip:-The ads title’s color should match the color scheme of your website hyperlink’s color.

Note:-It’s not guarantee that you will get a dollar or ratio of dollar against single click, Google counts each and every factor and then generates revenue for you. Page Impression is a big factor too for generating revenue.

What is an impression?
An impression is the viewing of an advertising banner, link, or product on the Internet

Broken Links the Killers of your website’s ranking

What are Broken Links?
Broken links are links that leads to the page where you found written “The page cannot be displayed”. In other words broken links lead you to those web pages that haven’t been developed. They really damage your seo process.

How Broken Links Occur?
Broken links occur due to the mistake of developer, or we can say that it is human error because for example you have page abc.php that you have developed earlier for Click Here hyper link but due to some mistake you give link to acb.php instead of abc.php, so due to your mistake the broken link occurs. If Click Here leads us to abc.php page then we call it just Normal LINK or Hyper Link but due to UN availability of the landing web page we call this Broken Link.

Can broken links are dangerous for your seo campaign?
Absolutely, yes. Broken links are the killer of your seo process because when crawlers begin to crawling your website they want your website must be completed developed, if they found any broken link then they think that website is not completely developed and hence they decide not to crawl your website further more. So for example, let us consider your website consists of four phases which are top, left, right and bottom, now if search engine begins to crawl your website from top left and there it founds any broken link, it will not crawl further more, so if your main keywords are after the broken links then how can search engine visit your targeted keywords, it means that due to broken links all your time become wasted that you serve for search engine optimization.

Some search engines instantly stop crawling your website if it they founds any broken links but other search engine stops crawling when they found continuity of broken links. In both cases we have found that Broken Links are the killers of your seo campaign.

How can we identify broken links in our websites?
Simply go to following website http://www.dead-links.com and provide the url of your website, then the spider of this website will tell you in the form of results that how many broken links are there in your website with their pages name that are not available. So check the broken links and then in top priority remove these broken links in order to get better position in Google against targeted keywords.

Web Directories influence in SEO Process

Web directory allows any person to submit his website by selecting appropriate category so that users can visit that website. Basically web directory is a series of Web Pages, categorizing links to other websites. The websites that are displayed by web directory are not indexed by any search engine robots, infect all sites that are indexed are submitted by users. Web Directory is also called Link Directory. It specializes in linking to other web sites and categorizing those links. Directories have various types of listings, often dependent upon the price paid for inclusion:
Free Submission – No charges for review and listing of the site
Paid Submissions - a one-time or recurring fee is charged for reviewing/listing the submitted link
Reciprocal Link - a link back to the directory must be added somewhere on the submitted site in order to get listed in the directory
No Follow - there is a rel="nofollow" attribute associated with the link, meaning search engines will not follow the link and will not able to check any website link placed in the web directory
Featured Listing - the link is given a premium position in a category (or multiple categories) or other sections of the directory, such as the homepage
Bid for Position - where sites are ordered based on bids
Affiliate links - where the directory earns commission for referred customers from the listed websites


Types of Web Directories
There are normally two types of web directories, one of them is Human-edited directories and other one is Bid for Position directories.

Human-edited Directories
A human-edited directory is created and maintained by editors who add links based on the terms and policies particular to that directory. SEOs normally targeted these directories as links from any reputable source will improve their raking in the search engines. Some web directories may prevent search engine from rating a displayed link by using redirects, no follow attributes or other techniques. It’s become now common routine for SEO guy to submit his site to the web directories to get vital back-links and improve his website position in Search Engine.

Bid for Position directories
Bid for Position directories or also known as bidding web directories, are paid-for-inclusion web directories where the listings of websites in the directory are ordered according to their bid amount. They are special in that the more a person pays the higher up the list of websites in the directory they go. If your website is highly listed then it is maximum chance that your website will be visited by user. In other words, it’s all about Money. You have to spend some Money in order to get some Money.


Process of submitting website to the web directory

You just go to the web directory, select any category that is related to your website and then submit your website. After that editor checks your website that u submitted against any category and then its up to editor whether he/she accepts or rejects your website depends upon some criteria according to web directory.

Steps must be in your mind while submitting your site to the web directories

1)Make sure that your website is ready and must be ready 100 percent with no broken link in any of the page. Good web design and fast loading pages having lot of content.

2)Select appropriate category while submitting your website to the web directory. If you have any confusion simply put your keywords in the search area and then performs the search process and from the results of search process you will come to know the categories which are directly related to your website (Most of the web directories not give such facility).

3)Before submitting the website it is very satisfactory to read first the terms and conditions of the web directory. Follow their instructions to have your website listed in their database.

4)While Submitting your website , please describe your website openly that for which purpose your website is, because you cannot optimize your website in the web directory using alt tags, heading tags or other seo techniques to get listed. So description of your website is very important part during the website submission in the web directory.

Most Popular Web Directories

1)Yahoo
Yahoo is the very popular and very powerful web directory so far. So you must submit your website to the yahoo in order to get high traffic. Please visit dir.yahoo.com/ if you want to submit your website.

2)Dmoz
The largest directory of the web.Lycos, AOL Search, AltaVista and HotBot feature Open Directory categories within their results pages. As ODP is now the directory listing source for many search engines, so you must have to submit your website too in DMOZ. Its open content is mirrored at many sites, including the Google Directory so without any delay submit your website at Dmoz. Please visit www.dmoz.org/ if you want to submit your website.

HTML Validation and SEO Process

HTML Stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. An HTML file is a text file containing small markup tags. The markup tags tell the Web browser how to display the page. Simply the purpose of html is to create the webpage, normally static webpage. A website consists of many webpages.

Many SEO Guys doesn’t know the importance of HTML validation, they perform other seo techniques to improve the rating of their websites but due to ignoring the HTML Code Validation in some keywords they stand second rather than first. Some SEO Guys say that HTML Validation is not a part of seo process and it should be ignore. According to me this is totally ignorance because you can understand yourself that website is developed due to HTML and if the Code of HTML is wrong or not according to the standard of w3c then it will hurt your seo process, I can’t say that it hurts badly or small injection but it hurts, as if during the crawling of search engines robot if html code is written wrong then robot will ignore the content within that particular html element, no matter whether the content is simple text or containing your important keywords.

Example

Let us consider we have two important keywords which are free tutorials and php tutorials and we have implemented these two keywords in two different places individually. We have implemented first keyword in h1 tag and other keyword in alt tag, so if we write code some think like this “<1h>free tutorials” and for second keyword “for alt attribute that resides in img tag if we use atl="php tutorials" then you can guess after viewing the code that search engine will totally ignore those keywords that resides in these tags.

I can guess that still some seo guys reading this article are saying that how it is possible because if we wrongly write h1 tag then we can catch this mistake because the text will not become bolder and bigger. But brothers what for wrongly use of alt tag can u catch it too, very difficult. So please make sure to validate your code before moving it to production. Make your habit to have html validation as it is one of important seo techniques.

In my other post which name is SEO project plan, I recommend HTML Validation. Please read this post.

Some SEO tips and tricks for getting respect by highly listed in google

Increase your keywords popularity
For increasing the popularity of your keywords you must place your keywords in strong tag, any thing which is bold attracts Google a lot so whyn’t we place our keywords in bolded form.

Decrease your page Load Time
Try to avoid flash elements and use less images in order to improve your website page loading time, the low your web page loading time the more it gets plus points in eyes of Google.

Add new content after some time intervals
No problem how many webpage your website contains, you just take care in order to increase the page rank is to add new content after some time intervals.

Urls for dynamic website
If you are making dynamic website, you must have to convert your dynamic urls into simple and easy to read urls. In php it’s quite easy by using regular expressions in .htaccess file. It is good to have url like this for dynamic webpage http://www.yoursite.com/php/development rather than http://www.yoursite.com/category=php&sub-cat=development. Google somehow try to read almost one to two parameters but still dynamic urls are not seo friendly.

Avoiding your website to be penalized by using text color same as background of the webpage
If you are using text color similar to the color of background then 100% sure that your website will be penalized. Normally people do such dirty trick to deceive Google for the sake of using maximum keywords in the webpage. Google considers this as a wrong act and quickly penalized your website.

Avoid JavaScript or try to use JavaScript as minimum as you can.
Try to avoid JavaScript as search engine hates it, if you put any of your webpage url in JavaScript function then Google normally will not consider that url. The main reason according to me that why search engine hates JavaScript is because JavaScript normally required human interaction in that particular webpage in which it uses.

Avoid content duplication

Google will penalize your website if it founds duplicate content. So please avoid these things.

Use alt attribute for image tag to improve page ranking.
Use keywords in alt attribute of image tag to well optimize your website. Also alt attribute will be very helpful as it will display alternative text when particular images are missing so this is good for better user friendly experience.

Google learns to crawl Flash

As you all know that seo experts never refer developers to develop website in flash because search engines doesn't like flash because the unavailiability of simple text, as flash contains heavy graphics rather than text. If developers made website in flash then seo experts also ask them to develop website in html too for search engines and hence work load is double but soon every thing will be ok for flash too.

Google is working over a new algorithm for indexing textual content in Flash files of all kinds, from Flash menus, buttons and banners, to self-contained Flash websites. Recently, google has improved the performance of this Flash indexing algorithm by integrating Adobe's Flash Player technology.

In the past, seo experts faced challenges if they chose to develop a site in Flash because the content they included was not indexable by search engines. They have to developed html version for search engines to crawl.

Now that google is going to launch Flash indexing algorithm, seo experts can expect improved visibility of their published Flash content, and they can expect to see better search results and snippets.
