      • Home Title Tag: your main keyword should show up twice here, with a variation of that keyword (eg: lose weight and weight loss).
      • H1, H2, & H3 Tags: these tags are very important(especially <H1>), and should always contain your keyword.
      • Keyword Location Within Text: try to place each your keyword near the beginning of the first sentence of each paragraph (maintaining at least 100 words between paragraphs).
      • Keyword Density: you should aim for a density of 3% for each keyword that you're targeting.
      • Use Your Keywords as Anchor Text on your page: link to an internal page on your site, and then link to an authority site (eg: wikipedia) that is related to your keyword. Always remember to use the "No Follow" tag (rel="nofollow") when linking to an external site.
      • Images: use the "alt tag" and rename your images to your chosen keywords.
      • Decorate Your Keywords: bold, italicise, or underline your keyword at least one time.
      • Google Loves Unique Content: your post should be between 850-1000 words and be well structured around your main keywords.

      Once you've added content and optimized your site, you should start creating backlinks to your site (or outsource this). The backlinks should be dofollow, relevant, and on pages with a high PR. High quality backlinks will increase your rankings and PR.
      Great tips, bu he can not do this if his page contains only pictures wihout any text or with little text (one or two sentence).
      All that he can do is alt tag in images.

        Increasing Search Engine Rankings


        I am often asked how one can be found at the top of search results. For this reason, I wrote up some text on the latest methods. (Please feel free to distribute but if you do, please include a credit and link back to this page.)
        There are two things which influence rankings. One is internal, one is external.

        External influences on your website's ranking

        The external influences you have no control over. It consists of outside links to you. That tells search engines (specifically Google) that your page is considered worthy by other people -- the people have voted! Links from highly-ranked sources will rate better than links from obscure pages.

        You might be wondering, is there anything I can do to increase how many people link to me? Yes, there are two things you can do:

        1. Provide content. Provide info that is good enough that people will
        *want* to link to it. Everyone is an expert in something. A roofing company can have info on signs of roof wear; a dog trainer can talk about how to deal with a puppy's first week home; a personal trainer can discuss how to avoid repetitive stress injuries caused by a poor computer setup.

        What do your customers ask you when they call? Pay attention to frequent questions, write them down and assemble them into a list. These are all potential topics for content.
        It's time-consuming, but write up your info and put it online. Regularly. Establish a blog if you want an easy way to continually update your site yourself. (Blogger.com is a great free tool that makes it super easy to post online -- you don't need to know anything special. If you can send an email, you can operate a blog.)

        The format of a blog is more like a newspaper than a static website because posts are listed by date with the most current one right up front. Some blogging tools only archive by date (Blogger.com), others allow topics (like Wordpress) -- an extremely useful feature.
        A blog is a good supplement to a website but not a good replacement. However, if you want to get new content online, it can be a great way to draw new visitors to your site for free yourself.

        Search engines like it when they see a site being updated often. The more you update your pages with good content, the more your rankings will increase. Search engines increase the frequency of visitation and ranking when they see updates are made often.

        2. Apply to be listed in directories like dmoz.com and yahoo.com (and others - there are many directories in the 'deep web') - and hope they will list you. Good directories usually will if your site isn't misleading or trying to scam search engines into giving falsely-high rankings. (None of the strategies listed in this article are false.)

        You can also ask for links, but make sure you are NOT targeting "link farms" - sites that consist of nothing but links - this can get you kicked off of Google. Instead find people with related content where you can both benefit from having eachother's link, and write a personal email (not a mass-generated one) asking for a reciprocal link.

        Internal influences on your website's ranking

        Internal methods are what you can do to your website to increase rankings. You will have to be web-savvy to implement these. All are honest techniques and will not backfire.
        You can learn how to make your own web pages, it's not that difficult. Making a page *look* sophisticated is a little more complicated but anyone can do it if they have the time to learn. Good books for beginning do-it-yourselfers include the "Teach Yourself Visually" series.
        Buy the version for your web software. I recommend Dreamweaver, other people have enjoyed Frontpage or Adobe GoLive. There is no hard and fast rule - whatever you like using. There are also tutorials online that can help you learn how to make your own site.
        The first thing you'll want is to research what keywords people are using. There's a good tool on Overture's website called the You type in a keyword and it will show you not only how many people used that keyword in a search, but how many variations of it were used.
        The searches are not completely accurate - it will only use keywords that people searched for on Overture - NOT Google, Yahoo or any other search engine. But it's still useful to see what keywords you should target.

        For example, I was reading that many airlines were using the keyword "discount air fares," not realizing that people were searching for "cheap tickets". Changing the keyword brought in many more people.

        Another thing to keep in mind is that it can take 6 months to a year to achieve good results with Google. This is so common that "being sandboxed" by Google is an actual slang term used by those enduring this frustrating time period. Google will index you quickly once you submit your site (or once they find your link) but it will take a while before these techniques start working. Have patience.

        The age of a website matters too; those that have been around a while will often fare better than newcomers (at least at first) unless you are lucky enough to have a huge attention draw for visitors or if you have the time to implement all of these recommendations.
        Once you do your keyword research, you should:

        1. Use keywords in HTML heading tags.
        Search engines can tell that if text is physically large, then it's a title, "so it must be important" they say. If you're putting "Wolf Dogs" at the top of the page, instead of making it "+1", make it an "H3" heading. It doesn't matter if it's actually large or not, just that it's a heading tag. This may or may not be possible though depending on your design and layout. If you can't do this, the others are more important (namely, #6 - content).

        2. Use keywords in links.
        A link saying "click here" isn't as good as a link saying "learn more
        about wolf dogs" because the latter has a keyword in the text. It's also more readable to your visitors this way, so you're improving how your site is read by people as well as search robots!

        3. Use keywords in your title.
        (The title is at the very top of the page, above your "File" and "Edit" and "Bookmarks" buttons.) It's also what you see when you bookmarka page. Keywords there are good.

        4. Use keywords in your alt text.
        Alt text stands for alternative text - this is what shows up when a picture isn't finished downloading, or what, say, a visually-impaired person might hear when their browser is reading aloud to them. The keywords you place here help tell the search engine bot what your page is about.

        5. Insert keywords in meta tags.
        Even though most search engines, such as Google, do not use meta tags, some still do. It couldn't will not to use meta description & keyword tags so there's no reason not to.

        6. Have keyword-rich content.
        A keyword should appear more than 5 times in your text.

        7. Avoid frames.
        Frames confuse search engine robots and they can't navigate through your site or index it well. Usability studies also show that people hate frames.

        8. Avoid Flash (or at least avoid Flash-only sites)
        Not only do usability studies show that people consistently HATE Flash-based sites because it slows them down, but search engines have no way of recognizing any of the text in a Flash file.
        There are very specific audiences that can benefit from Flash (for example, educational applications and movie previews). To determine if your site falls in this category, ask yourself if you would be willing to watch a short video before being allowed to buy something. For example, would you be willing to stand in the milk aisle while the carton rotates slowly as a cow dances across the cover before you were allowed to buy it? Choose your animation wisely.
        Another reason to avoid Flash is because people are increasingly using their PDAs, Blackberries, and cell phones to access the web. Many of these do not support Flash. The iPhone, growing in popularity, is part of a trend of phones & mobile devices that do not support flash.

        9. Line up your navigation along the left side.
        Search engine bots can navigate pages more easily when they follow traditional standard page layout, which is usually a navigation bar along the left and a heading along the top. To see your site as the spiders see them, use the text-only browser Lynx (on a Unix system) when testing.

        10. Have navigation links as text (somewhere on site)
        If your navigation is made of images, it's a good idea to have text links somewhere on your site because search engines sometimes have difficulty viewing images. (I do this here with a footer of text links on each page repeating the regular navigation.).

        Just be sure to have good content and update your well-designed keyword-rich page frequently with more good (keyword-rich) content, and you'll do well.

    put some content in your page and add some keywords in content then use anchor text for important keywords. You can also add keyword in images by using alt tag.

    Page rank would increase itself if your ranking increases, as the traffic would also increase, which would result in high page rank, there is no doubt to it.

      The same way you would rank any other site; through good link building. Thin content doesn't matter so much when you have lots of good high quality links.

      If you're new to SEO then you will struggle with the keyword 'funny pictures'. There are 766,000,000 results for funny pictures and like everything most of the Google traffic comes from being first page. If it is your first site then maybe go after something easier like 'Funny Trolling Pictures' first which has only 5,230,000 results. You can always go after bigger keywords later when you're more established.

      If you're looking to become another website that just eats and poops out everything redit, funnyjunk and 9gag posts all over your website then you probably wont get too far. There are tons of websites doing this which is why people like me stay on Reddit and similar sites. Everybody hates reposts so make sure to post some original stuff if you want people to stay on your site.

    Focus on your on-page and off-page SEO. On-page includes making high quality content that are valuable to the human visitors and a website that can be navigated easily and loads fast for enhanced user experience. If your content is great, you can have lots of visitors and will make your website linkable. This will contribute to high traffic. High traffic will lead to high rankings in the SERPS.

    Also, PageRank is based on incoming links and doesn’t have anything to do with the quality of content on the website. So if you want to increase your site’s PR at the same time increase your rankings in the SERPS, you need to acquire links from various high authority website which have good amount of PR.
