Many people who pay the website designer to create a beautiful website that was sweet but a commercial failure, only because of the designer considers only the visual beauty, but does not understand the "taste" the search engine.

Each search engine gives different weight to each page element. But note that the ranking in search engines (for keyword targeted) is very dependent on the extent to which websites meet the criteria of the search engine. With the weight distribution berebda disparate, elements of the following are elements that are important to all search engine: the text (including the actual keywords in it), tags (the HTML tags and the contents of the Meta-Tags), a link in the website, and popularity (links from another website).

To ensure the effectiveness of keywords that we select to be the target, required analysis of the behavior of market products offered by our website. Usually, research is needed to identify the keywords that will be targeted, and conducted testing to ensure effectiveness before the actually used.
