How Google Works - SEO Letter 7

Nick's SEO World Newsletter Volume 7


FREE Search Engine Optimization Tutorials FOR YOU



SUBJECT: How Google REALLY Works


Hello again everyone!


"How does Google really decide their rankings?" - a question I hear often....and then of course "How can I get my website ranked high?"


Google is the best and most powerful search engine in the world!

Why? It provides the most accurate results for the search engine user. If a search engine dominates the market as they do - Website owners or people looking to be successful on the Internet need to optimize for GOOGLE. More people search on it. The other search engines will follow most likely. Yahoo and Bing the only other significant players. I never liked Yahoo's system personally.... I have some totally outdated pages that rank high on Yahoo and some of my best pages on Google are listed lower on Yahoo. I work to please Google :)

"What should I really know about how Google ranks websites?" What are the real facts and myths I hear out there?


Important factors I can confirm (though Google does not provide 100% how they set their rankings):



Some Ranking Helpers

Websites that:

Have been registered and online longer rank higher - New sites have to be patient. Google rarely ranks a site "right out of the gate" 3-6 months normally

Have more pages - Yes! This doesn't mean it has to be 300 pages - but 5 page websites or less are a problem. Always make more pages!

Inbound links - websites linking to you. Not just any websites though. Sites that are considered "within niche or market". Hundreds of links coming from some 3rd party link building companies could actually LOWER your ranking

New and fresh content - Updating your site, at least monthly helps improve ranking and also allows Google to update your site.

Meta Tags - Good to have but Google pays little attention to these. I have several VERY high ranking sites that have no meta tags at all.

Proper Search Engine Optimization - Well of course! Titles, phrasing and using many of the techniques I use with my customers and what you will find in my SEO letters.
