This week I’ve learned how I can improve my website for search engines. There are many different ways to do this but I’ve listed five that I plan on implementing if possible on my own website.
- Have descriptive words that will help people locate my website.
- Have descriptive titles for my page so the search engine can easily find my page and to give it added relevance.
- Have links that add importance towards my website and give it credibility.
- Have the right words within the links that show or describe my website well.
- Have fresh and consistent content on my website
These optimizations will help the search engines locate my website if it is relevant to the users search. Also, I can make my website and its pages seem more relevant by including or improving these different aspects. By participating in the two discussion boards, I’ve learned a couple other ways that will help as well. One classmate mentioned emphasizing certain words or phrases that the search engine will pay more attention to. This suggestion is one that I plan on including as well.
