November 15, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
SEO rankings from natural search offer tremendous value to any website. Considering that nearly 70% of traffic to most sites are a result of search engines or contingent on the visitor stemming from a site they found in a search engine to reach your page.
Acquiring natural search rankings are a cost-effective means to reach a broader audience to sell products, services or information online. By understanding the premise of SEO and how to apply fundamental aspects of website optimization, you can dial in search results over time through content, relevance and the strength of your pages continuity by sending the appropriate signals to search engines.
With millions of new websites being added to the web daily, the sheer number of aggregate pages on any topic is expanding exponentially. So, how does Google or other search engines deal with this influx of information while still maintaining relevance and order in some sense of the word?, they limit the indexing of each keyword or shingle to 1000 search results.
What this means is, despite the number of pages for any given search, you are dealing with a set number of websites that all have some affinity with the topic, keyword or reputation of the search term you are competing for.
Natural SEO is not always about trying to fix a site to rank for specific keywords, itâs more about building a website with intention to devour a particular niche. It takes time to create content, time to develop internal and external links, time for search engines to assess, index and grade each page algorithmically as well as in context to the entire site, the sites linking to you and the impact and reach your website has on the web.
Time is the greatest commodity for natural search and SEO rankings are contingent on the volume of information for any given shingle (keyword, key phrase or group of related words). What this means is, the site with the highest relevance for any given keyword or key phrase (based on proximity, domain authority, link weight, relevance and hundreds of other metrics) is dynamically buoyant and rises to the top of SEO rankings easily.
The thing to consider is (1) are you targeting the right types of keywords (2) do you have enough supporting information on the topic within your website (3) is your website groomed to overcome the other 1000 search results for any given related query or nebulous and sparse when it comes to topical relevance?
For example, if you are on page 7 for a keyword, then you have some relevance for those keywords, but not enough link weight to push it past the other 60+ pages in front of you. However, by going back to look for relevant places from within your own site to link to your champion/landing page, making adjusting titles or tags and creating additional content on the topic you can shift this ranking factor without even venturing outside of your own site.
Most organic rankings are not hindered from off page factors/links (at least not as much as you would like to think) it really boils down to honing the on page factors under your control first in order to be considered a candidate for relevance by the search engines.
Relevance means quality content, coherent internal links and then quite naturally a proper amount of deep links to each page produces a synergy that produces the elevation in natural search results.

Googleâs Ranking System
November 15, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Google is the number one search engine. Are you aware of the technology aspect behind its ranking system? Fully understanding all of their principles is important to understand the ranking system.
The nucleus of their technology involving their methodology is devised for the field of Information Retrieval. This system is a foundation of mathematics, library science, information science, cognitive psychology, information architecture, linguistics, statistics, and physics.
How this retrieval system works is by the searcher requesting the information. The data requested is provided through a software agent that actually pushes that requested information.
The retrieval system may use a full test logical view but in most cases reduces it with a set of keywords. This is done with a process of exclusion of stop words, and the use of stemming, and by identifying noun groups.
Â
Note that when this retrieval database is set up, it works in this manner:
The documents are ranked by relevanceâs
Then by useful information
Then by a subset seen as of interest
Â
This system is basically for ease of retrieving information and not being overloaded by it. This gives Google their groundwork for the formula which they have built on top of, link structure and numerous other innovations.
There are three components of the search process:
1.   The first being the crawling and indexing of the pages but there are other important aspects. Another component is to understand a users search and the important concepts of their particular search even though they many not be obvious. In other words if you were looking for something specific with a place. The search result would pull up the homepage of that site even though the name was not mentioned in the title page.
Google makes other distinctions regarding wording and your updated information.
2.    Best in-class spelling suggestion system asks if you meant a certain spelling to clarify what you are looking for.
Advanced synonyms system- The synonyms of the queries is related to where a user asks for an item such as dresses for a wedding, and automatically the results are wedding gowns.
Very strong concept analysis system-The algorithms understand what the user is looking for to return the results that they are looking for. There is differentiation in place and particulars in the search.
3.   Google understands its users and localities. The results that a user is looking for is on âbest locally relevant results served globallyâ.
Another feature is for those that have Google accounts and are actually logged into them while searching. While doing a query they âtailorâ the results to the user.
Finally there is the Cross Language Information Retrieval technology. This translates language of another into English.
Â
While word frequency and page structure always comes into play we may not think about all of the technology behind how the entire process works. It is important to understand this and Googleâs philosophies.

Ranking Dropped From the Top Spots in Search Engines
November 14, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
You often hear this complaint that my search engine ranking has dropped. This is only to be expected as Google, Yahoo, MSN and the other engines are constantly in a state of flux. Most webmasters are caught unaware when they suddenly discover their ranking has dropped and the traffic has dwindled.Those who are making money online, losing ranks can adversely affect their earnings. Still worse, for those who are abjectly dependent on websites for their livelihoods, losing all search engine traffic can be simply disastrous.When sites lose traffic and drop down in the rankings, the one thing everyone immediately thinks of is – a penalty has been applied to their sites. Penalties are certainly applied by search engines but only when you have resorted to some undesirable activity like using cloaking, hidden text, doorway pages, keyword stuffing or link farms etc.Recovering from a penalty is long-drawn, but it is relatively simple. First, remove all suspicious stuff from your site including everything that a search engine might detest. Once you are certain there is nothing left on your domain that can be even remotely deemed fishy, then file a reinclusion request with the concerned search engine.Most of us in the field of search marketing are often obsessed with the ranking and try to make search engine ranking more complicated than it really is. There are innumerable ways to build a link. One could employ a range of keywords and adopt many innovative sources to drive traffic.The one popular method most people use is keyword density. There is no denying that if use the right and relevant keywords at appropriate places will got you the top rankings. It is advisable to use the keyword once or even a second time a variation of the keyword in the title tag provided it makes meaning and does not appear artificially thrust. The keyword may be deployed minimum three times in the content or if the content is large, a few more times. You can also make the keyword appear once in bold type. Make sure the keyword appears once in the alt tag of an image and again once in the URL. Avoid using keyword in link anchor text on the page itself. It is pointless indiscriminately over using the keywords all over the page, as it will not produce the expected results – although you may derive some extra value by going wild.There is what is known as Page Rank or link power. You can achieve this by providing internal links from your own site and external links from other sites. Here lies the secret. A page with an extraordinary amount of link power rank remarkably well in Google and Yahoo even if the sources are not particularly relevant and the keywords are sparingly used. This may not apply to MSN and certain other search engines which focus largely on keyword and subject on hand.Next, we should understand the importance of what those familiar with search engine call anchor text. By weighting the keywords and phrases pages used to link, browsers could get a clearer idea about the page contents and their relevance to particular subjects. The anchor text of links is becoming a critical part of the ranking equation, and if found abundantly, it can overshadow many other ranking factors. One can cite instances of web pages that are weak in all the other factors but ranking high primarily because they have acquired countless links with the precise anchor text of the phrase.Domain Authority is an assured way to feel your presence in the internet. To achieve this, you must operate your site in conformity with the engines established guidelines. Ensure you get lots of trustworthy sites to link to you. Merely being top-ranked in search engines will not do. You must exercise vigil and constantly monitor your behavior to stay at the top. Any indiscretion on your part can create problems again.

Having Trouble Improving your Google Ranking?
November 13, 2009 by IBI · Leave a Comment
Link popularity is defined as the number of sites that are linking to your site. Some websites have thousands or even millions of sites linking to them, while others might have only a few. The search engines use the number of inbound links your site has as a measure of how important your site is, which translates into your search engine ranking.
The actual number of links to your site is not the only variable used to calculate your link popularity. The search engines also examine the relevance of the links to the subject matter of your site. For example, if a website that sells vitamins has 4,000 inbound links, but the source of most of the links are websites that have nothing to do with vitamins, then the algorithm that search engines use to determine link popularity will take that into account, and the link popularity score will not be very good.
It is possible for a website with a relatively small number of quality inbound links to be ranked higher than a site with a bunch of irrelevant or insignificant links. If I have a website that offers quotes for auto insurance, and I have 800 quality inbound links, then I might receive a much higher search engine ranking than another mortgage site that has 3,000 links that stem from link farms or Free For All (FFA) pages.
If you try to acquire inbound by using link farms or FFA pages, not only will it hurt your search engine ranking, but you might get permanently removed from the search engine listings. Links farms are sites where you can instantly exchange links with all the sites listed in that directory. FFA pages are pointless link directories. The search engines usually discount any links that come from either of these sources.
Now that we understand what link popularity is and how it works, we need to look specifically at how Google measures it. They use a number of variables in their algorithm to calculate your overall link score. The higher your score, the higher you will be ranked in the search listings.
One factor that Google uses in their algorithm, obviously, is the total number of sites linking to you. The more links you have, the higher your score will be. However, their algorithm is a little more complicated than that, and it is possible for a website with fewer links to be ranked higher than a website that has more links.
The reason for this is because Google also measures the quality of your links. If your website is about vitamins, and the site linking to you is a video game site, then that is not considered a quality link. The link still helps your score, but the link would help your score much more if it were from a website whose subject matter is the same as yours.
Also, Google gives a higher score to a link if it comes from a page that has actual content that relates to your keywords. For example, if your site is about jewelry, and another jewelry website has posted a link to your site on their links page, that link is not as valuable as a link to your site coming from a blog or a message board where a lot of information about jewelry is being written or discussed.
Also, they give an even higher score to a link if it contains anchor text that matches one of the keywords that describes your site. For example, if I have a site that sells lawnmowers, and a blog about lawnmowers has posted a link to my site, it helps my score even more if the link text (also known as anchor text) is LAWNMOWERS. To learn more about anchor text, go to a search engine and look up ANCHOR TEXT and you will be able to learn about it.
Another factor used by Google to score your link popularity is the diversity of keywords contained on sites linking to you. For example, if you have a site that sells handbags, and all the links to your site are from other sites that contain nothing but the keyword HANDBAGS, Google considers that to be abnormal. To get a higher score, you need to have links coming from sites that contain a variety of keywords related to handbags, such as BUY HANDBAGS, LEATHER HANDBAGS, etc.
It is difficult to increase your link popularity, but now that you understand how your score is calculated, you can devise a plan to improve your score. You might want to consider posting to forums and blogs that contain information that is related to your site, and when you post, include a link to your site.
