Getting Your Website to the Top of Google


Here we will discuss how to use the Google keyword tool for SEO. It is a very powerful tool for SEO and can provide you with information that will help you to optimize your website and marketing efforts.


Keyword Discovery


One of the main things you need to do is to make sure that your website is fully optimized for SEO. To do this you will need to follow some simple steps.


1) The first thing you can do is to use the Google keyword tool. This is a very powerful tool for SEO and will help you to optimize your website.


2) Use the tool to research your keywords for SEO. You really need to spend a good amount of time on this research part. There are a number of good paid keyword tools to use. You can use Google's free tool to find keywords for SEO but as I am starting out that will not provide you with enough data to truly evaluate what you are doing.


3) You need to use the keywords on your website pages. You should be looking for keywords that are common and relevant to the theme of your site.


4) Now, you need to use the keywords in your meta tags. If you do not know what meta tags are they are a series of tags that are invisible to the visitor's browser. You can include keywords in the meta tags that are relevant to the theme of your site.


Another way to get keywords is to use them as part of your file names for various pages on your site. Now you do not need to include the keyword in the actual URL of the page.


Creating Backlinks


Backlinks are the links from other websites linking to your site. You can create backlinks by posting comments in forums, writing articles, and placing your link in social media websites.


Now you need to link these backlinks to specific pages on your website. You need to create a URL for each backlink. These URLs should contain the keywords you are targeting for the specific page.


If you are trying to rank for the page about dog training then you will want your links to be looking like this:


yoursite.com/dog-training.html


Finding The Right Words To Use


Keywords are not as easy as using the words that you think would be searched the most. Keywords need to be relevant and they need to show up frequently on the page.


You need to create a listing of all the words that you think would be searched the most. Then you need to see which of those words show up frequently. The amount of times they show up on the page, and in the HTML code, should be enough to get you started.


Google Search-Wide Keyword Tool


After you have created your listing of keywords that you would like to use, you can enter them into the Google search-wide keyword tool. This tool will show you how often the words show up in the actual content of the web pages.


You will be able to see how often the words show up in the actual page title, the meta description, the meta keyword, the page URL, and the h1 header tags.


You will be able to see the volume of searches for the words that you enter. You will be able to sort the results based on the number of monthly searches or searches per month, as well as globally or by country.


You will be able to create a funnel using this tool that will show you what keywords are relevant to the words you entered. Then, you will be able to see which of these keywords you should use in your search engine optimization.


Taking Over The Top Spot In The Search Engine Rankings


Considering that there are nearly 400 million web pages indexed on the Internet, you can see the importance of being ranked high in the search engine rankings. When you take over the top spot for a popular keyword, you will see your website receive approximately forty times the traffic of the sites below the leader in the rankings.


The Top Ten Search-Engine Optimization Tips


1. Importance of Keywords


You need to use relevant keywords throughout your entire website. These keywords should be used in the domain name, description, keyword tags, page title, and just about anywhere you can. However, you shouldn't balance your website too heavily with keywords. If you do so, your site is going to be penalized by the search engines.


2. One-Word or Short Tail Keywords


The longer the keyword the more targeted your site is going to be to a potential visitor. For example, 'goggle' is going to be more targeted than the term 's browsing'.


3. Directories


You should submit your website to the top directories, and you should only submit to a few directories. Don't make the mistake of submitting to hundreds of different directories.


Hope this advice helps!
