1. 1. LOOK GOOD IN THE SEARCH RESULTS
Your page title is used as a suggestion for the title in Googles
search results. Describe your business in a concise,
informative phrase.
Domain names are an important part of Googles search
results. Choose a descriptive and easy-to- read domain name
for your website. Sub-pages should also be easy to read. For
example, use www.stasiasbakery.com/custom-cakes
instead of www.stasiasbakery.com/prodid?12345.
Meta descriptions are page summaries often used by Google
and other search engines on the search results page. Write
unique descriptions for each page in 160 characters or less.
2. HELP GOOGLE UNDERSTAND IMAGES
Give your images short, descriptive file names.
The alt attribute describes the image. This helps Google
understand whats in the image.
Write a short caption on the page below each image. Put
important information in text rather than images.
3. UPDATE AND KEEP GOING
PROVIDE USEFUL CONTENT AND KEEP IT UP TO DATE
Your website is like a virtual storefront. You wouldnt leave a store unattended for 6 months, right? Keep your site
fresh by starting a blog, announcing new products, sales, and special offers. Remember to put yourself in your
customers shoes and make sure you provide them with the information they need.
