2. Try to find out the most relevant keywords of your clients. Sort them by relevancy and list the first 12-15 keywords
3. Provide useful and structured content which referes to the keywords
4. Set keywords in bold within the text. Use keywords within the title tag.
5. Use h1-headlines for the most important keywords
6. Use alt-tags for images
7- Design. Try to create an unique and attractive design. High-quality images will impress your visitors. Seach for nice images in the web but do not copy them without permission!
8. Submit your website to the most important search-egnines like google, yahoo ...
9. Try to get new backlinks every weekSearchengines will love that. Be sure not to get bad neighbourhood. Only quality websites should link to you. Directoy listings will provide you with good links when they have a pagerank of 2 or higher.

Want Your Website Visitors to Return?
If your like me you have searched on every search engine any possible way to advertise your website. I have filled out submission forms till my fingers have cramped up. I have looked at link farms, long boring articles on SEO, I even have articles sent to my inbox everyday in hopes of finding the next “new” way to attract visitors.
So now you have designed your site and your thinking it looks great. “Who wouldn’t want to visit my site?” You have all your affiliates set up, you have your ads (by Yahoo, Google,…) and your ready to start making some money. You have your exchange links set up, you listed on every toplist you can think of and you even paid money on some Pay Per Click program in hopes of visitors. And you even have your tracking program in place so you can tell who is hitting your site and where they are hitting from. You even know what pages on your site are popular.
So why are you only getting first time visitors? Why do they only visit one page? Why are they not returning?
One answer - pop ups.
If you belong to one of those exchange link programs that provides pop up, pop unders,(pop up under the main page) or exit pops (as I call them, when you close your site this page appears) then you could be chasing away your visitors.
I consider my self to be an above normal Internet user. I have several websites that I have created and between them I have thousands of pages in cyber world. I know when I click on a ad or link and all of a sudden pop ups appear out of now where I slightly freak “like whoa!” and once I clear my screen I make a mental note not to click that button again. Imagine how a novice surfer is going to feel. They may never click on an ad again. That kinda defeats all of us using ads. You will get hits added to your counter but they wont be return hits.
In no way am I bashing these programs. But like any good web designer, know what tools are in your toolbox and know how and when to use them.

Know Your Audience
Designing a web site is hard enough. You spend countless hours working on how it is going to look and what cool specials effects it is going to have. You even spent hours picking out your site colors. So now what?
Now you have to promote it. But how? There are many ways. You can submit them to search engines, join a pay per click advertising program and link exchanges. Of these link exchanges are the ones most picked, mainly because they are free. But do they work.
According to the emails that keep coming into my inbox, link exchange is dead. The big search engines know what they are about. Back scratching. You link to me and I will link to you. It does not help your SEO or your quest to be #1 on Google or Yahoo. But it does give you awareness to the people you exchanged links to. And this can be helpful.
I believe there is no one way to get your site ranked number one with anyone. But I do think if you plan your strategy correctly and use all of the tools available to you, you can get what you are looking for. You designed your site and you know what your audience is looking for. You may even know where your audience is.
So just because you hear certain marketing methods are dead, don’t give up hope and sell your domain name. Use the normal process to get ranked among the big boys and use you link exchanges for awareness to you targeted audience.
