To attract lots of organic searches, bringing visitors to your website, then your web pages should be ranked within the ten, which are positions one through ten on the first page of the results with the top search engines.

1 – Be sure to include your keywords with usernames and URLs. Make use of your main keywords by placing them within any usernames you might generate on the social media sites, and also within your web page URLs. Focus on using these keywords when you put you username into your comments on blog posts. The more often these keywords get used, then the easier it’s going to be for your ranking to go up with the search engines in their results. Andy links that you build back to your site should have include these keywords in your anchor text.

2 – Always have good original content. This is a must for having a site that attracts visitors and ranks you higher with the search engines. Fresh, relevant, and quality original content, updated regularly, will help to keep your site ranking well with the search engine spiders. They love text, and they rank sites with original content a lot higher. Make good use of your keywords throughout your content on each page, and link your pages together.

3 – Make use of a blog. Search engines love blogs, and they rate them highly, because they crawl them more often than other types of sites. So throw up a blog to go with your website and use it to post fresh content daily. Let your visitors interact with you with blog comments. You can find software that enables you to post all blog entries to social media platforms automatically. Places like Twitter and Facebook will receive your posts immediately. With Bing ranking your Facebook posts and Google ranking your Twitter tweets, you can vastly improve your keyword rankings with the search engines.

4 – Whenever possible use some images and/or video. These are some very effective marketing tools, and Google will rate them highly. Take advantage of YouTube for marketing videos that will promote your site. Throw some images onto your website that can enhance your content and attract visitors to come there.

5 – Do some link building. Each link that points to your site is seen as a vote when search engines crawl your site. They place a lot of weight on how many links you have, as well as the quality of those links. Those who manage to get some high quality links in a large number will sustain a high ranking over time. People have no problem linking back to a site that provides quality information that is original and updated regularly. Link building should be an ongoing process.
