Optimization of Metatags



Meta Tags have two important things which are the meta description and meta keyword tags. Search engines may display the meta description as part of the search results, but the meta keywords tags should not visible in search results.
Some SEO experts think meta tags are dead. Even so, many of these same experts continue to use meta tags in their sites.
When ranks a page Yahoo says they use the Keyword Meta Tag. So it makes sense to add one for Yahoo and any other minor search engines that still use. In Google ,the Description Meta Tag won't result in a boost in the Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs), but the description might be used for the description for your SERP listings in Google.
Example of meta tags
You can add following in the head section of the web page:
<meta name="keywords"
         content="KEYWORD1 KEYWORD2 KEYPHRASE1 etc.
         about 30 to 40 unique words">

<meta name="description"
         content="An accurate, keyword-rich description
         about 150 characters">
Meta Description Tag Tips:
Few important tips for good meta description tags:
  1. Use keywords in your meta description tag.
  2. Avoid repeating the words overly often, but try to use multiple syntaxes of your key words.
  3. Should not be more than 150 characters in a description meta tag of a single web page.
  4. Use a different meta description tag for each page, because each page is different and stands a better chance of being found if you place a good title and description on it.
Meta Keywords Tag Tips:
Few important tips for good meta keywords tags.
1.       Use synonyms.
2.       Use unique keywords.
3.       No need to repeat any given phrase.
4.       You can repeat any word an unlimited amount of time as long as each time it is part of a different phrase.
Robots Meta Tag:
meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">
Using above meta tag you can tell to a spider or robot that you do not want some of your pages indexed or that you do not want your links followed.

About Backlink



The large number of backlinks is an indication of the popularity of your website. Backlinks are important for SEO because some search engines like Google, Yahoo,Bing, give more advantage to websites that have a large number of quality backlinks.
For that reason, when search engines calculate the relevance of a site to a keyword, they not only consider the number of backlinks to that sites but also their quality. In order to determine the quality, a search engine considers the content of the sites. When backlinks to your site come from other sites, and those sites have content related to your site, these backlinks are considered more relevant to your site. If backlinks are found on sites which are unrelated content, they are considered less relevant.

Content is what you see on the website .i.e. the text, graphics and even links to outside world. I don’t like using excessive graphics because they are not Search Engine Friendly and users feel bothered when they get downloaded specially over a network.

Optimization of ANCHOR



Most of the  search engines follow anchor text of incoming links when ranking pages. An example of anchor is given below
<a href="yourpage.htm" title="Anchor Title">Anchor Text</a>
Following important ways to note about anchors:
  1. The Anchor Title plays very vital roles and will be seen by most of the search engines. Thus your anchor title should have right keywords.
  2. The Anchor Text is one more important part which should be selected very carefully because this text will be used not only of search engines but also for the navigation purpose. You should try to use paramount keywords in your anchor text.
  3. The yourpage.htm is the link to another web page. This link could be to external site. But here care should be taken that this web page should exist otherwise it will be called a broken link and broken links give very bad impression to Search Engines.
One more example of an anchor could be as follows:
<a href="yourpage.htm" title="Anchor Title">
   <img src="image.gif" alt="keywords" />
</a>
In this example Anchor Text has been replaced by an image. So whilst using an image in place of anchor text it should be checked that you have put alt tag correctly. An image alt tag should have correct keywords.
