Having the best website in the world is no good unless people have a way to find it. You will need to have your site at the top of the results on Google and Yahoo. This means it is necessary to learn how search engines determine these rankings if you want good results. These tips will help you succeed.

Your website's "metatag" area is an important place to maximize your standings in search engine results. Be sure to include a wide range of keywords there, including possible misspellings of your keywords. This meta-tag data will be read by search engines and as a result, your website to appear in a larger array of search results. An example of this is a site for eyeglasses: include words like "glasses" as well as "glases."

If you are using SEO optimization for a page on your site, you need to control your keyword density. Ideally, your page's overall keyword density should be at 20% or less.

When choosing a domain name, try and pick an address that has one of your keywords included. After all, you want people to find your website easily. Keep in mind that people will find your website via multiple methods like search engines or backlinks, not just from advertisements.
