Build your website with a design search engine

Build your website with a design search engine Looks good and easy to use website is a very important resource for success on-line. However, without traffic, even a well-designed web site does not produce results for you. The best websites are those that are both attractive and easy to use for their human users, and at the same time, suitable for search engine robots that are trying to find and collect data from your site.Oftentimes a site that may look good to the eye has some design defects that its search engine friendliness compromise. Here are some things to look for when designing new sites or optimizing an site.1. If your first line of text to start? You might think? What? S easy, the first line of text is in the top right? If you look at your website with Notepad or HTML view of the popular editor may be surprised to find that the first line of your current search query can be pushed down to 100 or more lines along the chains and java script code html that defines its tables.The top of your text appears in the HTML view of the site, the easier it is for the robot to find and put in the search engine database. You can save space in your HTML code to copy your java script and put it in an exteal file uploaded to the server. Instead of 50 lines of java script commands in your HTML code, just a line that points to a separate file with the java script.Similarly if your table structure to simplify the text search will become more prominent. The left navigation bar, for example, with its graphics separately each within its own ranks, it can be a place where you can save the code to merge the lines into a cell.2. Your website graphics predominant at the expense of searching for text? If your site begins with a splash page, a page filled with a beautiful image of the sea and no text, except? Sign here, "then you're missing a great opportunity. Search engines consider the home page of your site to reach the earth in the most important page. His text with the keywords must be in the headlines. If you have splash page, you should consider the demolition of all or at least add a paragraph with a powerful activity.If his capsule description of your site has a flash-only the first page, and then the text message this page can not be visible, with the exception of what we can put in your title tag and description. The search engine robots can not read the text message that was presented in the form of a flash movie. To use the flash, and fits well in rankings on search engines it is better to make a page where the hybrid flash is surrounded by a normal html page with text. The text of the entire flash movie should be optimized so that the page ranks and search engine queries for your important keywords.3. You have unwittingly provided the text as an important figure? If your site is about? Wireless devices in Califoia? then you want some prominent text at the top of the page with these words. You can already, but the text has been altered in a beautiful gif or jpg graphic for both the author or his editing program html. Search engines do not look good with the same importance as a written text as a header H1 or H2. Some popular HTML editors make an entire paragraph as gif images. All text that appears in the image becomes almost invisible to search engines. I say almost invisible because we can always make any alteative text for graphics, but this text is not weighed very normal as alteative text in bold or headers. Therefore, check your pages and make sure that the text is plain text and not a image.4. Search engines can follow your site? S Link structure? If your site uses a drop-down menu that is run with java script, so that search engines can find your home page, but did not win? Do not follow links to their pages. Similarly, if your area is an image map for navigation, with a chart? Hot spot? linking to multiple pages, search engines can not and will not be able to find other pages on your site. To get the most traffic is essential to have the largest number of pages can be indexed in major search engines. You can achieve this by adding a text-based navigation at the bottom of the pages or a site map page with text links to all your inteal pages.If attention to these design considerations, it can be improved largely on your site? S can then appear at the top of the search results.Copyright 2004Donald Nelson is a web developer, editor and social worker.
