Getting to page one of Google is very valuable for any site, a fact all online entrepreneurs are aware of. Google happens to be a traffic goldmine for any website that knows how to harness its power. In this article we will be looking at a few simple but effective methods that will help you reach the top of Google.



Domain names play a vital role in site rankings, which is why it so important to have the right one if you want to reach the top. It has been proven that a domain name that contains your core keywords will have a better chance of achieving excellent rankings in Google. However, you should keep in mind that your domain name is just one of the many factors that you need to concentrate on in order to achieve your goals. Ensuring that your principal keyword is included in your domain name is essential when registering it. You should also ensure that your domain name starts with your keyword and there is nothing before it. The reason for this is, your domain name becomes less relevant in the eyes of Google when it notices a word like 'the' in the beginning. You can add words at the end of your keyword, but it needs to make sense and be done with taste. You know what to do if you can't get a domain name that features only your keyword, which should be your main focus, but it can be hard. If you don't have your primary keyword in the domain name, the one you want to rank for, ensure that it is at least present in the URL. Google will give your page preference if it finds the keyword in the URL when generating results for a search. The type of keyword you are targeting is irrelevant, but a long tail will have a better chance of reaching the top. The quality and relevancy of your site are determined based on a wide range of variables, including your URL. There are many new sites that rank for their keywords just because they were included in the URL of the webpage.



One aspect many people ignore at their own peril is the powerful "Title" tag. Google determines what to rank a site for by also looking at the Title tag, which is why it should contain your primary keyword. Restraint is the name of the game, though, so don't put too many keywords in your Title tag. Two keywords in the Title is fine, but don't go over that number. A smart way to deal with this is to combine two keywords in such a way that they look one.



Working with Google, any website can hit the front page if it takes consistent action in growing and maintaining its position. Many websites struggle for months and even years to reach to a good position on Google, without realizing where they're going wrong. You have to analyze your results and know what you are doing if you want to get to the top of the rankings. You don't have to be a search engine specialist to strike it big with Google; if you can apply a few common sense tactics here and there, you'll make it.
