Knowing How Search Engines Work
Critical To Being Found on the Web
Search engines are your friends -- if you know how to treat them
Search engines are responsible for organizing content on the web into a user friendly format. The field of search engine optimization helps search engines by making it easy to gather the information they need.
Search engines use automated software programs known as robots or spiders, to survey the web and build their databases. Web documents are retrieved by these programs and analyzed. Data collected from each web page is then added to the search engine index.
SEO helps spiders index your website's contents
When you enter keywords at the search engine site, your input is checked against the search engine's index of all the web pages it has analyzed. The pages that these robots determine are most relevant to your keywords will appear at the top of the listings. By working with the search engine robots, the website will appear high when keywords specific to your website are found.
Building search engine friendly websites requires multiple skills. You need a designer, you need someone to code the site correctly, and then you need someone to write the copy. It's a challenge writing for both the search engines and for humans. But that's what makes the site a success.
The difference between a top ranking site and one that is on page 10 can be very subtle. Nobody has all the answers or can guarantee you success. But not following the rules is a sure way to stay hidden.
