I have a small business and I’m trying to generate more traffic to my website. The thing is, there is so much information online it’s hard to filter through it. If someone has had success with an online marketing site or company, shoot me a link. Or even internet marketing workshops or classes in the orange county, california area that you’ve attended. Thanks.

No. Just use the Title element http://www.seo-blog.com/title-element.ph… and the description meta http://www.seo-blog.com/description-meta… and you will be fine.

Does font size effect search engine rankings? I want to make a paragraph of text a bit smaller, so that it takes up less space. Will engines penalize me for this?

The search engines look at various factors to rank the relevance of a web page. While they use these factors differently, here are the common factors they look at:
Age = both Google and Yahoo (to a lesser extent) do not give top ranking new sites immediately. There is this thing called “sandboxing” whereby new sites, especially those who are running a very aggressive linking strategy, find themselves not showing in the SEs for even up to 6 months. SEs seem to believe that there is a natural growth for websites, and any site that grows beyond their predefined pattern gets sandboxed.
Content = the more relevant your content to the search term, you can expect better rankings for that search term (considering other factors of course)
Keyword density = the main keywords of the page as well as special formatting used (if keywords are in bold, H1 or other formatting)
How it fares in the results = when a user clicks on the site in the search results, does the user stay (if so, then it must be relevant to the search) or does the user leave immediately (which means they haven’t found what they are looking for)
Site structure = where the content appears in your HTML code (the higher the better)
Backlinks = quality of backlinks, not quantity. Who is linking to you? Who you link to is also very important. If your site talks of website marketing and you are linking to mortgage financing, then that can negatively send a signal to SEs

Not that I’ve heard of. I would doubt that Google/Yahoo/MSN crawl the databases of information and include that in their algorithms. If it did, it would be a good selling point for domain sellers and they would probably promote it a lot.
Hope that helps,http://www.how-to-sell-a-website.com

Hello,
Wordpress is a fantastic blogging platform, I love using it! But if you are using a fresh Wordpress install you’ll probably not get much in the way of traffic. Luckily Wordpress is super easy to optimize.
-one of the most importent thing is you can ealiy optimize your page titles.
-using keywords in you post title is important, but also use to need to use keywords throughout your post.
-change permalink strcture very simple
-we can add posting everyday or every week, so the
search engines prefer to your site
-we can add sitemap also, then search engines find easily
regards,
roe.

That’s the million dollar question. Some say in theory that it may have value in rankings as a hint towards overall relevance.
The bigger question is in finding out what drives the high bounce rate. Is it relevance issues with the keywords searched for or does it deal with usability issues of the site.http://www.webjutsu.com

so i have tabs for describing my clubs listings with tabs for each club with address, map, description, etc, all on the same level.
I think to place adsense besides it.
Are tabs considered ‘hidden’ text and how will it affect my ranking?

A friend of mine was told by his web designer that if he forwards too many of his domains (more than 4) to his main website that it can effect his ranking in search engines.
Is this really true? I have about 7 or 8 domains forwarded to my main website…Can this hurt me?
