SEO can be broken down into onsite and offsite.
There are three elements to consider for onsite SEO:
- The design of the site; use the latest standards like CSS and XHTML and set the site up in such a way that Google can easily read it
- Identify your keywords and put these in your page title, heading tags, image tags etc
- Ensure the content is keyword rich and matches your keywords. The more pages your site has the better too – a blog is a good way to increase this.
There is then offsite SEO – this is primarily how many other websites link back to your website.
You should also consider the authority of that website. Within Google’s algorithm it gives every webpage a ‘PageRank’. This is how authorative that page is. PageRank ranges from 0 – 10. Lots of links back to your website are good, getting links from websites with a higher PageRank is better.
