In the general, search engine optimization involves the use of keywords or keyword phrases. These keywords are vital to the following areas of search engine optimization.
1. Keywords that a user inputs into a search engine when searching for information
2. Keywords found on your blog, blog posts, website and web pages.
3. Keywords in links from other blogs or websites that point back to your website or blog
So how do these keywords connect and work together? How does search engine optimization utilize these keywords? You should have asked how search engines rank your website using these keywords. That would have been a better question?
Firstly, you want to understand that Google do not rank websites. Google ranks web pages only. And that the major factor employed by a search engine, say Google, in the result of pages is the number of quality links from other site that point back at your website and the keywords that are used in the anchor text of these links.
This is how Google works. After a user inputs a search term into the search box on www.google.com, he or she clicks on the search button. Google will then try to match a web page, which could be a home page, to the word entered in the search box.
Google does this by taking keywords from the search term and matching them to both the keywords on the web page and those found in the link from other websites. From a list of the websites containing those keywords, Google will sort them by order of relevance, and will display them on the result page. The most relevant website would take the number one spot.
This makes it obvious that the secret to attaining the number one spot is to create a website of page that has the right keywords in it. It should also contain a good number of links pointing back at it. The difficult task is to make sure that the keywords pointing back at your website or blog are the most relevant. The authority of these links is the core of search engine optimization. This will define the possibility of your website or blog sitting on the number one spot of major search engines. So, waste no more time today, as you now know the importance of a good SEO to your blogs and websites.
