Search Engine Help
Sent by Allan Smith on July 10th 2008 source
You must have used search engines to search. The key to successful search engine searching is using your own intelligence. Remember a search engine does not have the brains to distinguish between "cancer the zodiac" or "cancer the disease" or "cancer the crab". So search using your intelligence and let the search engine do the raw computing for you.
There are specific search engines for specific subjects and general search engines for your general queries. Knowing where to look for before you start can save you subsequent time and get you desired results.
Be specific when you use keywords. That helps you reach results faster. Broad keywords do not provide you with desired results. Try and imagine the ideal page for your search result and use the key phrases you imagine should be on those pages. You basically anticipate the search results to get to the information.
Use search filter tools provided by the search engines. Use the search refining options, which are normally available to you under advanced search options of the search engine pages. Use query by example or similar sites to get related results faster.
That goes about using search engines. Now some tips to reach the top of major search engines, like Google, you'll need to focus on both on-page optimisation and off-page optimisation.
On-site Optimisation, which involves keyword research, content development, HTML coding, Meta tagging and sitemaps.
Offsite Optimisation, which involves link building, RSS feed submission, article submission directory submission etc.
These strategies ensure that your web pages are properly coded and that many third party websites are linking in. Make sure to develop your web pages with proper search engine optimisation techniques. Once you've done so, focus on building links to your website. Links should be formatted properly and generated from high-ranking websites (Google PR).
Search Engine Optimisation uses a range of techniques to achieve high rankings in organic search engine results.
