This article is concentrating on keywords
and keyword phrases to possibly rank your website into the
search engines. Your selective keywords that you use for
your website are critical in making the success of your
online business. Keywords are what people type into a
search engine to find something on the internet.
How many keywords should I use in the meta tags?
How many keyword phrases should there be?
What is a keyword phrase?
A keyword is a single word or collection of words used to
describe your services and what your website is about. If
you are doing your own website these words are applied in
the html, where the meta tag states the following:
meta name="keywords" content="this would be
your keywords typed here with each keyword separated by a
comma"
Although this meta tag area is important it must be also
combined with several other tactics to rank your website
high in the search engines. This meta tag presents
keywords that reflect the content of your site. They
should not be words that do nothing at all that pertain to
your site.
The number of words and phrases should be no more than 25.
I have seen websites that had stuffed keywords into this
meta tag and it did no good. Most search engines will
ignore anything over the 25 word limit.
A keyword phrase is defined as more than one word.
"Real Estate Agent" and by demographic area
"Real Estate Agent Texas" is a keyword phrase.
Select about 25 words or phrases that descibe your product
or service, and separate them with a comma. This line
would look like: real estate, real estate agent, texas,
etc.
By carefully planning and selecting the right keywords,
your site will be more visible in the search engines, and
as a result, more visitors and this means more possible
sales for you.
