Twelve tips that will boost you’re ranking in google.

1.Choose an appropriate domain name, and start out by optimizing the home page.

2.Avoid frames as Frames are actually divided into multiple URL designations and are generally not spiderable by the search engines.

3.Avoid java script in pages Spider cannot read JavaScript. Link or text by such JavaScript will not be counted in your indexing. So idea is to use external .js file. Through this you can also reduce the size of the file.

4.Avoid flash no doubt flash image is great, it will impress your visitor and increase the quality of your site for sure, but this flash must still be accompanied by a healthy portion of good content as spider don’t understand the flash and will not index the links and content in flash

5.Choose keywords wisely. To find the optimal keywords for your site, use tools such as WordTracker and Overture.com (http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/). Choose two or three highly targeted phrases for each page of your site. Never shoot for general keywords such as "web" or "ecommerce."

6.Write at least 200 - 250 words of visible text copy based on your chosen keywords. Use each keyword phrase numerous times within your copy for best results.

7.HTML title tags are critical because they're given a lot of weight with all of the search engines. You must put your keywords into this tag and not waste space with extra words

8.Create Meta tags and Meta Description tag that uses your keywords and also describes your site. The information in this tag often appears under your Title in the search engine results pages.

9.To boost your search engine ranking use following tags properly. Use h1 tag to put the main keyword . Use alt tag Use keyword in hyperlink Use keyword in URL like this ( a1technology.com/software- outsourcing.htm )

10.Be careful when submitting to directories such as Yahoo and the Open Directory Project (DMOZ). Having directory listings are a key component to getting your site spidered and listed by Google. Making mistakes in the submission process could cost you dearly as directory listings are difficult to change later in the game. Therefore, it's important to read Yahoo's How to Suggest Your Site and How to add a site to the Open Directory before submitting.

11.Don't expect quick results.

12.It's best not to make changes to your optimization. It often takes the engines at least that long to add your optimized pages to their databases. Submit it, and then forget about it for a while!
