You Need Search Engine Friendly Pages For A Good Web Design

by Ferdinand Emy on Aug.15, 2009, under web design

There’s no point in building a website unless there’re visitors coming in. A major source of traffic for most sites on the Internet is search engines like Google, Yahoo!, MSN, Altavista and so on. And so, by designing a search engine cozy site, you’ll be able to rank simply in search engines and obtain more visitors.

Major search engines use programs called crawlers or robots to index websites to list on their search result pages. They follow links to a page, reads the content of the page and record it in their own database, pulling up the listing as persons search for it.

If you want to make your site indexed easily, you should desist utilising frames on your website. Frames will only confuse search engine robots and they might even abandon your site because of that. Moreover, frames make it problematic for utilisers to bookmark a particular page on your site without using long, complicated scripts.

Do not present essential information in Flash movies or in images. Search engine robots can only read text on your source code so if you present needed words in Flash movies and images rather than textual form, your search engine ranking will be affected dramatically.

Use meta tags accordingly on each and every page of your site so that search engine robots know at first glance what that particular page is about and whether or not to index it. By using meta tags, youre making the search engine robot’s job simpler so they’ll crawl and index your site more constantly.

Stop employing wrong HTML tags like font to style your page. Use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) instead because they are more effective and efficient. By using CSS, you may get rid of redundant HTML tags and make your pages much lighter and faster to load.
