Now I must have gotten your attention already. So you’re asking me now just how to go about with that. Well, it is fairly simple. With a little tweaking on the HTML, you could go a long way.

First off, before you upload your image, make sure that it is properly named. You can put in the relevant keywords as the name of the image. Then you could upload it. Those sites which host images take the name of the image and use it as part of the permalink of the image.

Then, when you are using the image already on the site, make sure that you describe it with tags. How do you go about that? Just add alt=”description” in the code for your image. Well, here is an example:

<img src=”http://www.everyjoe.com/files/46/2008/07/scraper-sites.JPG” alt=”scraper site sample”>

Using Images For Optimizing Your Site

Now, that’s the thing that we have to consider. A site’s content is important. It is actually very important that most people in the SEO industry say that content is king. It is what brings people to return to the site. Fresh and worthwhile content keeps readers and visitors hooked.

On the other hand, if the content that you put on your site is just all about adding keywords that are relevant to your site, that would not be helping your site that much. As experts say, what you should put in your site is fresh, relevant, and quality content. It is not the quantity that matters. It is always quality that keeps the visitors coming in.

SEO Services, Anyone?

• Google is not as smart as it seems.
• Just because a search engineer is nice, smart, witty and reasonably honest doesn’t mean he isn’t your adversary.
• Forums are good for getting clients. Help people out when you can for free and you’ll see what I mean.
• What might have been true yesterday might not be true today.
• Yahoo and MSN have traffic to send too
• Don’t assume everyone knows what you discovered already when you study your stats. Save it for yourself.
• Don’t underestimate how much your knowledge or programming skills are worth.
• Read a book on marketing from a semi unbiased source. I prefer SCORE and the Small Business Association.
• Remember its the world wide web and there are opportunities to be had in oversea’s markets.
• Someone thinks you are an idiot.
• Someone thinks you are a liar trying to fleece them.
