Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) in Gwent
90% of all web searches are done on Google, Bing (Formerly MSN) or Yahoo with a majority using only Google so the good news is you only really need to concentrate on your site achieving a high position in 3 search engines. To achieve this your website needs to be constructed properly, otherwise known as search engine optimisation and not just look good. Here are a few of the ways we achieve high ranking position with Google:
- Correct use of the title of each page along with well written description tags.
- The page is designed with careful use of headings and lists.
- The name of each individual file is carefully chosen.
- No un-necessary html code or javascript as our websites are built by hand.
- Maximum use of a technology called `cascading style sheet` allowing search engines to get straight to the content of your website.
- Correct use of the `alt` and `title` tags (the text that appears when you place your mouse over an image or link).
- Creating a site map and making use of Googles webmaster tools.
