There is no point in creating a website unless you have thought about how you are going to get visitors. Regardless of whether you are creating web pages for business, as a hobby or to inform there will inevitable come a time when you are going to want get people to come to your web pages. You want the majority of visitors to come from search engines. Certainly the lowest cost and best targeted traffic will always be brought to you by the search engines.

Search engines make their living from delivering relevant and useful results to their users. The more relevant and precise the search results the better the user experience and therefore the greater the chance the user will user will return. The more frequently users return to the search engine the more opportunity and income the search engines create. You and your web pages face a similar challenge.Make your users experience your number one priority so they return to your web pages time and time again.

So how do you go about doing this?. There are two paths to achieving this and the good news is you can if you have the money do both. You can create and publish great content and persuade other web site owners to link to it or you can advertise on the search engines using PPC (Pay Per Click).

As far as all of the search engines are concerned nothing exists on the internet without a keyword or a key phrase. Searches always begin with the entry of a keyword or phrase into the ‘search box’. The search engine refers to a gigantic index to retrieve a list of the web pages it deems to be the most relevant to the keywords the user entered. All search engines determine what will be returned in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages) by using two measures authority and relevance.

Relevance is determined by the occurrence of keywords in the web page content and authority is largely derived from back links from other web pages. Search engines calculate the position of a web page in a returned list of results by measuring the authority and number of backlinks to each page.

Back links are the most important factor in optimising your pages for the search engines.

Back links not only determine your position in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages) but are a major source of visitor traffic. People searching for and reading relevant content will click on the back links that contain text related to their quest and subsequently be directed to your web pages. ‘Anchor text’ is the correct term to describe the text appearing as a link and contributes to the value given to the link by the search engines. Some back links have more value than others.
