Importance of Search Engine and
designing a SEO Website
By:Jerry Goldfarth
The
vast resource of information available on the internet today is in
the form of various classes.
For example, when we talk about a mosquito
repellant – there are websites that market the
product,
websites that
offer manufacturing know-how, websites that provide simple information
on the topic and websites that just simply talk about mosquito
repellants. The importance of
information posted on a business website
is always to the end of selling and making profits.
Therefore,
the information which is business oriented should be displayed to the
customers at all
times. Now that all this is taken care of, how to make
sure that a particular website is found by the
visitor? There could be
millions of websites dealing in the same product. This is where the
concept
and process of search engine optimization comes in. The need to
develop or design the site to be
search engine friendly takes the
drivers seat here, in an effort to optimize a particular site out of
the
billions on the internet today.
Search
engine majors like
MSN, Google, Yahoo and AltaVista crawl through the internet perpetually
by using programs called bots or spiders. Their function is to read the
websites and file them into a
category and finally index them in a huge
catalog. When a visitor accesses a search engine and types
in his
search criterion, the search engines scan their indexes for a match and display the
results, out
of which the visitor can select a website to
visit. Exactly how this index is made is still a puzzle that many
professionals are trying to solve. However, thank god for small favors,
some secrets are known.
Using
these known secrets, it is
possible to design a website by keeping them in mind to ensure that the
website ranks highest in the search engine results. In this
multi-pronged advantageous process, the
higher a website is ranked, the
higher is the traffic. Moreover, if the website stays there
continuously, it
builds credibility amongst potential customers and the
traffic builds automatically.
The
whole process of search engine
optimization generally takes about 3 to 4 months after the design
phase
is over. This is the time taken by the crawlers to finalize the index after
numerous visits.
Submissions to search engines is another option
but not necessary because, all search engines
automatically crawl and
find new websites on a continued basis.
The
demand for search engine optimization is immense today.
