- The higher the number of web pages, the better.
Google likes sites with a large number of web pages. Those web pages must have good and complete content. The information must be at least 500 characters per page. - There should be some links to other web pages within the site.
In writing articles each time, if we come across Keywords which are related to Articles that we have written earlier. We should also be able to link to that article because Google will be on our website for a long time. and can store data within the website on every page - If not necessary, there should be no off-site links.
That is, should not include a link. Linking to other external sites is not necessary as this will leak our PR value to other sites. In case we are linking to external sites, include a nofollow link, for example <a href=. ”External website” rel=”nofollow”>message</a> - To create a link, it should be linked with Text or Text and should be linked with Keyword.
- Add a description to the image.
In addition to naming files with keywords, we should add a description to every image. Google will also index our images, for example <img src=”image” alt=”image description”/>. - An indispensable tag (these tags are in the code section)
Title is an important part. to indicate the content within the website Should be written to attract people to the web, not just to put keywords to rank only.
