holmedwa04 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Hi,Meta tags consist of two parts, keywords and a discription, it appears from looking at you source code that you are only using keywords.This is the format of a Meta Tag: <meta name="description" content="What you want the search engine to display."><meta name="keywords" content="Keywords or phrase you want people to search for, separated by commas with no fullstop at the end"> Does this help you?

SFB Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Even without metat tags google should get something from your page and display it there. in your case it cant because you have an extra page that you see before entering your site. i would recomend removing it. that extra page is like a gate to a search engine. it has to open it and then go on. it is basically worthless to the search engine. if your homepage was the first thing the search engine saw it would be redy to get to work. it could collect the data it needs to put a description below your link. personally i dont like an extra page before your main site but the decision to keep or get rid of it is up to you.

Skemcin Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 a.) your homepage lacks content - so google will not be able to really guage what your sites purpose is. if you work text into your homepage that is relavent to your site and keyword selection, then you might fair betterb.) search engine placement is not easy, and takes three months to begin to establish yourself and takes work every week to maintain.c.) don't just focus on your site, find other means sites discussion boards or industry related directories to list your URL on - the more referring links you have and the more they get used, the higher your ranking will become.... search engine placement is more than just adding keywords to your meta tags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 ... search engine placement is more than just adding keywords to your meta tagsAnd how. In fact, meta tags can even reduce your ranking. If you have a lot of keywords in your meta tags that do not appear anywhere in the body, some search engines will dock points thinking that you are trying to spam the search engine with terms. Some search engines even disregard meta tags altogether, due to the fact that authors can put whatever they want there, and meta tags have been abused quite a bit by spammers and porn merchants. Meta tags are not a good basis for what appears on a website.The 2 best ways to get a high ranking are to have the relevant keywords inside your page content itself (not just in the meta tags), and also have other sites link to you. The second one is what Google is based on. Google ranks sites, and if a site with a high rank links to your site, it boosts you quite a bit. It boosts you even more if there are keywords in the link text itself.Another factor is hosting. If you are on a free web host, your site will be ranked far lower then if you are on one of the major paid hosts. Searching has evolved from a simple keyword search to actually determining which websites are the most relevant, and to some people a free web host means you aren't serious, and therefore not relevant.http://www.wordsinarow.com/seo.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFB Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Another factor is hosting. If you are on a free web host, your site will be ranked far lower then if you are on one of the major paid hosts. Searching has evolved from a simple keyword search to actually determining which websites are the most relevant, and to some people a free web host means you aren't serious, and therefore not relevant.http://www.wordsinarow.com/seo.html lets say you host yourself. is that better, worse or (i need a word for no change) for your rank? I seems likely that search engines would take this into consideration because most of the time it is true but there are some good relevant content on free hosts. I guess websites on free hosts are more likely to be forgotten than ones that you spend money one monthy/anually. that means the content on paid sites would be more likely to be updated or just removed.

boen_robot Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I don't think Swedenboy is talking about SEO here.He is talking about having additional information in every result from his site, no matter where in the list it appears. For example, look at gamershell. It's a really famous site for games and as you can see, it has those "Download", "Demo Versions", etc.I also wonder how could one get those btw.
