Web Hosting | Does web hosting affect SEO?

One question that I have been asked in whether or not the Web Hosting Data Centre's Technology can affect Search Engine Optimisation?!

The answer to that question... Is in fact yes.

The technology behind the web hosting companies can affect how well your website ranks within the search engines.

This is mainly to do with where your website hosting provider has its servers located; and whether the website which you are trying to rank for within that local area is hosted within that country.

IE. A website that you would like to rank well in the UK for a keyword should be hosted within the UK in order to get the best results. For example, Giraffe Digital; a High Performance Web Hosting host their website locally for better search engine rankings. Another example of good search engine optimisation (SEO) is a Highway Contrator company such as Traffic Management Solutions Kent whose website ranks well for their chosen keywords because of the relevant content related to their Traffic Management Company. 

Another loca firm that uses the servers of Giraffe Hosting is Complete Brickwork Solutions, a brickwork specialist firm based in Maidstone, Kent. They use Giraffe Hosting because their services are fast loading and provide 1st class support to their clients.

Getting Back Links To Fast?

One thing that i advise against strongly, is getting to many back links to your website too fast.

Sure!, you can have a few new links here and then, but if one day you have 102 links going to your site and then a few months later, you had 1302, then this would be noticed a lot by the search engines and you may be penalized.

Keep it slow, because tricking the search engines is never good.

Search Engine Optimization is a forever continuous process, which takes both time and effort to do.

Never stop your search engine optimization (SEO) campaign; because it should all pay off in the long run, providing that you have done everything fairly and by the book.

Why not to use Frames!

Frames... Or I-Frames, are a real pain when it comes to doing your search engine optimization work.

Search Engines do not tend to like Frames, I-Frames or Remote Forms.
(Because it is hard for them to index the frame based objects.)

Use your own form and data sources if possible to help the search engines index all of your content.

The taste of success!

It has been a little while since i have been doing a lot of work on my websites search engine optimization and i believe that everything that i have been doing is starting to pay off.

I have been monitoring my website stats and have seen a fairly dramatic amount of new traffic coming to my website.

This means that all the work i have been doing on search engine optimization is starting to pay off.

Over the next few months and furthermore, I intend to keep on optimizing my website over time and adding more and more content.

(TIP!)
Search Engines, love fresh content and will index your website more often if you always have fresh content for them, each time they come...

(Beware!)
Do not copy other people's content without their permission, otherwise you may begin to have copyright issues with the content owners.

Create your own content or hire someone to do so...

My Search Engine Optimization Tasks

Over the last few weeks, i have been looking at my website and those that i work on and seeing what i could do to make them more search engine optimized.

My main aim online is to make new acquaintances, make business deals and new corporate partners.

Whilst doing this, i learn many things and i have taken a keen interest into the search engine industry; including, domain names (URLS), data centres, Link Sales, Website Directories, Advertising and website programming.

As you can see from this blog, i take all of these into account and do my best to give a step by step guide for webmasters which is not only simple to understand, but teaches many new methods which you they can use.

Whether i am working on HTML, PHP or MySQL (Databases); I am still working with the search engine optimization and website hosting business to learn new things and to write guides for others.

Is being NO.1 really the best place to be in a search result?

There are many theories on whether or not being NO.1 on the search engine results page (SERP) is he best or not.

In my opinion and that of a few others, you should be looking at getting within the positions on 3-10.

I believe that this is due to the fact that various amounts of being who are looking for something online, also like to have a shop about and see what else is up for offer.

When you are working on your search engine optimization, you should do your best and not hold back.

Just do not use any SEO Tricks to trick or betray the search engine.
You need to be honest, and true to what your content is.

This is the best way to get a good ranking within the search engine's.

The best method is the simple method, which means that you should play it fair and do your best.

No need to rush... But why?

I have found that when you are doing your search engine optimization work; that it is much easier to do it slowly and think about everything that you are doing.

Take a moment to breath and do not rush things... (Rushing makes things inaccurate!)

Do your research first, then plan your work out, think about everything you are doing and make sure that you keep the correct spelling and grammer with everything you write.

Google Webmaster Tools - How can they help?

It has been some time now since Google released the Google Webmaster Tools Section for webmasters and site owners alike.

Google Webmaster Tools have various diagnostic and research tools for your websites or those that you manage;



These tools are very useful when looking towards working on your Search Engine Optmisation and increasing your websites page rank.

My company website, which provides cheap website hosting uses these tools to optmise the website.



I can use various Statistics, diagnostics and management tools, sitemap submission and website reporting through the Google Webmaster Tools.

Check out your competition!

When you are starting your search engine optimization campaign, you must take a look at what keywords your direct and in-direct competition are using.

Do some research on your competitors and check how they have laid things out, see how many links go back to their website and where from. (If they link to them, they might link to you).

Make sure that you do not just copy their content; trawl through their source code and see what makes their website tick... (Please be aware that if they have a site built on PHP then you may not see everything within the code)

Use their own tactics against them, but do various pieces of research and get the upper hand on them in order to win.

Search Engine Optimized Hosting Companies?

There are so many companies that tell you that if you host with them, then you will get a better search engine ranking; This is incorrect!, because they are no better than many other hosts and they cannot guarantee what they are always offering.

There are so many website hosting companies and they all do the same thing.

Some may be better than others, but not as much to make a difference to your websites Search Engine Optimization Campaign.

Each and every website hosting company stores, and processes your files and is not made to work for Search Engine Optimization; That is you and your research that does that.

By looking more and more through blogs like these, and forums where you can learn so much, you shall see a better understanding of SEO and then you should be able to make those minor changes to your website and over time, get a better rating.

Another Day of Research,..

Today, i have been hard at reading up on Search Engine Optimization and what it does to help me get good rankings on the search engines.

I am now taking on website projects that want some Search Engine Optimization Services.

See, the thing is; that no one is able to guarantee you top places in the search engines, Therefore, all of those companies that say that can are lying to you.

The Search Engine Decide!!!
It is not u to the designer, the code that is there, the Search Engine "Specialist" or anyone else where you get ranked within the Search Engine Results page for a selected keyword/Phrase.

This is all up to the search engine, so there is not much use trusting these services because most of them are fake anyway.

Look for a good website hosting company; http://www.cis-webhosting.com/index.html and get yourself started online, see what you can do with a website and enjoy your time whilst doing it.

What is Search Engine Optimization?

Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a web site from search engines via search results. In most cases, the top search results usually mean that those pages have a higher Rank than the others.
Usually the higher the site is in the search results mean that more of those searchers will visit that site.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO), can also target different kinds of search which can include image Searches, Local Search Results, Subject Related Search Results and many more.

Why do I need Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?

There have been cases where some people have got lucky and their web sites have gained good ratings without any Search Engine Optimization at all, but this does not mean that you will...

Search Engine Optimization (SEO), as defined on this page; is required to help your web site gain good ratings within the search engine results for a specific keyword or phrase that you have set.

In order to get good rankings and to have a good amount of visitors it is advised that you use Search Engine Optimization tatics to help increase your ranking.

It is believed that the higher your Search Engine Page Rank; The higher your website may appear within those specified Search Engine Results.

How do i make my web site Search Engine Optimized?

Your web site should be thought of as something that you love; because you need to care for it on a daily/weekly basis. This is sound advice given by Marathon Digital - Marketing & Design in Maidstone; a Maidstone based Digital Marketing Agency.

Just by taking a look, checking and making some changes; maybe an hour each day, can have dramatic effects on your Search Engine Rank Position and your Page Rank.

Let's Start!

There are many ways which you can improve your search engine rating and get higher in the search results.

There are a fair few people who believe that getting a good rating is quite simple.
It does take a little time; in order to get a good rating, you need to keep at it and try hard to make sure that you have some new content for the search engines.

Search engines just love new content and if you keep it updated on a good basis, then the search engines will come back and index your website more often and over time your website may be seen as a reliable source.


"Keywords"

The keywords that you use for your website should be relevant to what your website is about and what you do there.
Try to keep a few of the keywords in the:

1. Url
2. Meta Tags
3. Description
4. Alt Tags
5. Title
6. Header Tags (Not to many though)
7. The Main Content

The above seven things are a must when you are placing keywords for your website.


"Link Baiting"

In order to help your website get higher results and to become more trusted, you need to do some link baiting.

You can give links back to other websites, in return, they will give you a link back to your website. (Try to choose sites which are relevant to what yours is about.)

Search engines like some Link Directories; but some can harm your rating, so be careful.

The best links that you can get, are one way links. These links are where you are not linking back to someones website but they are linking to yours.
This is good, as it shows that that website links your website/services and without there being a link back from your website. It shows that they trust you and that there is not exchange.

One way links are liked alot more by search engines. The search engines trust these types of links more.
