When designing a site, all of the file names of the site should be representative of what's on each page. File names like page_1.html are not helpful in conveying what is on the page. Search engines look for sites that are relevant and that are clear about the information being provided. Descriptive, yet short names, like web_marketing_design.php tell not only search engines spiders what's on a page, but humans as well. Similar to file names, URLs should be created in formats that that are meaningful to humans and search engines. Often URLs are a combination of domain names, directory names and file names. All of these elements should be descriptive of what's on the site, the directory and the page respectively. Business - Directory of business/finance/loan/mortgage related partner sites Computers - Directory of computer hardware/software/peripheral related partner sites Internet - Directory of webhosting/webdesign/internet marketing related partner sites Software - Directory of software related partner sites Web Design - Directory of web design/development related partner sites Web Hosting - Directory of web hosting related partner sites Web Promotion - Directory of search engine optimization/internet marketing related partner sites Web Resources - Directory of other web related partner sites Recreation - Directory of travel/hotel/cruise related partner sites Casino - Directory of online gambling/poker/blackjack/roulette related partner sites Health - Directory of online pharmacy/hospital/health related partner sites Shopping - Directory of online shopping/gift related partner sites Miscellaneous - Directory of all other partner sites
Alt tags are displayed when graphics have been turned off. A surfer may turn off graphics to get better Internet speed or may rely on alt tags because of physical impairment. This is probably why search engines still seem to weigh alt tags into their search ranking algorithms. Many web designers leave alt tags blank, when in fact they could be populated with keyword laden and accurate descriptions of the images. There are certain elements that users of the web have come to expect of the sites they encounter. Examples would be Home and Contact buttons. Have you ever been to a web site and found yourself digging for the Home or especially the Contact button? |
