Traffic: Optimizing Your Website

Steps in optimizing pages for keywords...

1. First, choose a set of keywords that range from your most general theme to more specific sub-themes. For example, if your site is about "golden retriever puppies" this term, along with two or three other closely related search terms should provide the focus for your home page.

2. Your home page is usually your site’s most important page, so it should be optimized for your most important keywords. Your home page should be more general in content and emphasis, with links pointing to more specific sub-sections within your site. In other words, organize your home page around the most general (small) set of keywords you want to rank well for.

3. Then create internal pages focused around specific keywords related to those emphasized on your home page. For example, you may have sub-sections within your site on topics such as:

- golden retriever puppy care
- buying a golden retriever puppy
- toys for golden retriever puppies
- best features of golden retriever puppies
- etc.

Each of these pages should focus on a narrow set of keywords related to (and linked to) the home page, and all the other pages within your site.

4. You need simple navigation tools - such as a nav-bar - to interlink your pages. These links are important, both for navigation purposes and for SEO purposes. These are seen as inbound links and they help form a "neighborhood" of related resources. Neighborhoods are good in the eyes of the search engines. The SEs assume that a neighborhood of closely related resources contains more information than isolated pages.

Traffic: Optimizing Internal Pages

Usually, each page within your site should focus on a narrow sub-set of keywords, with one dominant keyword. For example, let’s say you are creating a site about "golden retriever puppies". If your research tells you that term gets good traffic, then that should be your primary keyword for your home page.

So let's say one of your secondary pages is about "buying a golden retriever puppy". So "buying a golden retriever puppy" should be your primary keyword for that specific page. Your page should also contain other closely related keywords such as "golden retriever puppy habits", "golden retriever puppy behavior", "golden retriever puppy pricing", and so on.

Twitter Tools and Strategies

- Twitter can be a boring waste of time, or a great way to build and enhance a profile, group of followers, online reputation, etc. It's been around long enough now to have an established track record as a useful social networking forum.

Not having months of serious Twitter experience I've been surprised at the superficiality of most tweets, and especially surprised at the kind of filler some people use...but whatever...

Games To Encourage Thinking Skills

Apr 7, 2006 - Linknet Entertainment - by Steve Hall

There is no doubt about it, using computer games is a great way to encourage children to expand their realm of thinking. Your options for entertaining your child may seem numbered. Many people allow their children to spend quite a bit of time in front of the television. But, what good does that do? If you want them to learn something while they are zoned out, you are completely lost. But, if you flip on the computer, download a great game, you may actually be able to encourage them to learn more and you will encourage good thinking skills as well.

Thinking is not something that everyone can do well. Now, we are referring here to the thought process that goes along with solving problems. For many children, this is something they struggle with. Mom or Dad always takes care of the problems. If something isn't right, just call mom or dad. Even on the television, that is full of real life and imaginary "problems" that need to be solved, there is no encouragement for children to come up with the solution. What happens then? They just sit and watch and let someone else handle the problem.
