Day 6 Continued - A Home Business Income Opportunity Through On-Page Optimization

7) File Name

* Every time we create a new page for our home business income opportunity to be optimized we must add a file name extension onto our domain name. This is the address for our page and we want to include our keyword for the page in our file name.

* The only exception to this rule is with the homepage in which there is no extension because it runs off our domain name. If you followed my rules your keyword for the homepage will already be in your domain name so there is nothing to worry about. What is more important?, A flashy name or getting your page to rank in the search engines. This is why I advised you to place your main keyword of the homepage site concept into the domain name when you registered.

8) Image Alt Tag

* Probably the least important of all the tags we have learned how to optimize, but as of late it is gaining in importance for a home business income opportunity. The search engines have added image searches to their services and now this little tag can get you extra free traffic with little work.

* The Image Alt tag is just a HTML tag used for placing images into a web site page. The tag looks like this < IMG SRC"image url" > and when we add the ATL tag to the original we now have this < IMG SRC="image url" ALT "keyword" >. NOTE: I have placed spaces between the <> so the image does not go live, make sure you do not places any spaces between the <>.

See how we were able to insert our keyword into the tag to describe our photo to the search engines? When a visitor places there mouse over the image the keyword will pop up as well. Make sure to add the "image" after the keyword so that it looks like we are trying to use the ALT tag to keep our home business income opportunity clean and organized and not keyword spamming.

* If you are going to add images to your pages make sure to use the Image Alt tag and make sure to use the keyword for that page alone in the Alt tag.

Well you are on your way to becoming a search engine optimization expert and running a profitable home business income opportunity of your own. This may seem like a lot to absorb but it will all become second nature after you get some pages up and running. Just pay attention to the rules until you know what to do for each section when you create a page.

The main point of this is very simple, we want each page of our web site to meet the criteria of the search engine so we can rank well and get that free traffic. Solid search engine ranking is critical to our success so make sure we keep every page of our site optimized to our best standards.
