Well.. good morning everyone , I’m interesting to write this article after reading some article on cosaaranda blog about meta tag to optimize SEO score. The reality we face now almost people or webmaster forgot about meta ( included me sometimes he he he )  so let me write about my own experience with meta to help some people optimize their web/blog.

Basically meta used for robot/crawler to get information from your web/blog, But be careful when you write irrelevant meta tag your site might will crawled in wrong way and result  might will false.

1. Meta Description:

Used to describe about your website, this words will also will be placed on search engine result. Example on one of my site meta description is about “Server project of nexustk the kingdom of the wind emulator and atlantia development free flash games” (yea I know this meta description s*ck LOL)  see the result in google search engine.

What will happen if most search engine not found meta description on your site? not sure about all crawler but one I know google crawler bot will crawl the top words to be put in  search result.

2.  Meta Keyword:

Used to describe your site keyword in search result on search engine this is sorted from first keyword to be the first priority . Again sample on one of my site meta keyword is “nexmutk,nexustk,baram,nexia,nexustk map editor,emulator,ps1,ps2,bios,scph,games,development,install shield,earn money,game server,server games,mmorpg,nexustk packet,nexustk emulator,gunbound,darkages,lunentia,ts online,ran online,maplestory,donation,project,developer,visual basic,vb6,utility,zlib compression,paypal,egold,kingdom of the winds” see the result when I search something using keyword “nexmutk”

So the answer is when you need to fill your meta keyword this keyword MUST included at least 1-3 words in your site content. This also the way for some people try to targeting HPK (high paying keyword) from google adsense to get HPK ads showing on their site.. that s*ck is it?!?! YES MONEY RULES! *LOL*

Alright we focused on this 2 meta first, other meta and their function will be written on next article. Usually meta tag should written on header files, the problem is lot and ALMOST header files is static.

How we can make dynamic meta on static header?!

Simple and easy as 1-2-3 :p if you’re advanced in php/database programming this should can be done in only 5 minutes he he he.. how we can done with this one.. listen to me carefully I will not tell you the code but only my vision *LOL* when you programing your site you can describe your meta to follow your pages words content, remember meta description no more than 150 character this way is for medium level programing. for some people who advanced on database you can write your meta from your database by calling it out, there is other way also using rewrite rules to play with your meta and many many ways to do this. Maybe next time I will write some sample code for this.

Have good day everyone

This is my simple explanation on how to get flooded traffic and raise your pagerank in short time. If you disagree with this method then stop reading and give me more technique how to get it

Your site got no Traffic? then try this simple tricks to get it. People around the world using Internet are usually using search engine to get information on what they need. The 2 most powerful Search engine are google and yahoo. There is other search engine but in my opinion this 2 search engine are the champion of search engine so we have to focus on it.

The great news is… google have completed data for trends keyword based on daily search you can see it for free!  We can play with that trends data to create content with keyword from google trends data and get flooded traffic in short time it will also (claimed by some friend and other people) can raised your  site pagerank.

HOW?

Visit google trends website on HERE you will got almost great data information on trends keyword daily. If you have site with almost same keyword with google trends data you can try to make new content using that keyword. In result? of course it will be flooded in short time on next day you can visited google trends website again and looking for new keyword trends today.

The trends keyword hourly, daily is changed. So… using google trends really fit and the best technique for news site or blogging site. Don’t have it? you can still using google trends to analyze your keyword using google trends.. you can searching for keyword match to your site content and try to implement it on your site.

Give it a try you won’t loose anything

Building your website but no one visited on it? What’s wrong? You might can advertising with easy to get million traffic daily, But in one day you stop advertising you loose all those potential traffic.

Organic traffic from search engine are the best. Most of webmaster looking for traffic from search engine but they don’t know how to get it.  I know it’s hard, really hard. Beside the topics, keywords, etc most of important thing we almost forgot it is the friendly search engine link.

Most of great search engine love to indexed permanent link (permalink) example http://www.mysite.com/mypage/ or http://www.mysite.com/mypage.html more than dynamic URL example http://www.mysite.com/index.php?page=page1 etc. Even google and most great search engine claim their robot will crawl dynamic URL but most of people doesn’t like it in result. By make your URL friendly will also raised CTR on SERP.

* You should know URL Friendly will not affect on your search engine position ranking.

So let try to make simple Friendly URL using URL rewrite. First write this code on your .htaccess file (you can find this hidden file usually in your website root)

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymLinks

//creating /mypage.html format
RewriteRule ^([0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/?/?.html$ /home/yourusername/public_html/index.php?page=$1

//creating /mypage/ format
RewriteRule ^([0-9a-zA-Z-]+)/?/?/$ /home/yourusername/public_html/index.php?page=$1

* Take attention on modification bold and red font, and in your index.php (Taken from my sample)

<?php

if(isset($_GET[’page’]))
$p = $_GET[’page’];
else
$p = “0″;

switch($p) {
case “tentang-kami”: include(”./pages/tentang-kami.php”); break;
case “kenapa-kami”: include(”./pages/kenapa-kami.php”); break;
case “berita”: include(”./pages/berita.php”); break;
case “promosi”: include(”./pages/promosi.php”); break;
}

?>

Done, you will get friendly URL like this sample on 2 of my site in here and here just waiting until search engine indexed your page and send organic traffic for you. For real sample to make sure URL rewrite working take a look on this page and this page.

Good luck

Well, I just have done optimize SEO for one of my website using 4images gallery system it’s on http://www.innovativedesktop.com basically I play with meta title, keywords, and description. And now I’m using URL rewrite. URL look cool and more search engine friendly I believe after a week or month it will indexed in lot of search engine

Here is the way for you’re to using URL rewrite on 4images to make it more search engine friendly REMEMBER this will eat CPU resources. (before you doing this I recommended to backup your files first). Any alternative you can learn about URL rewrite yourself to make it works as you want (google is the best teacher).

1. You need to make .htaccess file and put this code on it

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^lightbox\.html$ lightbox.php?%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^lightbox\.([0-9]+)\.html$ lightbox.php?page=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^search\.html$ search.php?%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^search\.([0-9]+)\.html$ search.php?page=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^postcard([a-zA-Z0-9]+)\.html$ postcards.php?postcard_id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^postcard\.img([0-9]+)\.html$ postcards.php?image_id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^k_(.*)_([0-9]+).html categories.php?cat_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^r_(.*)_([0-9]+).html details.php?image_id=$2&%{QUERY_STRING}
RewriteRule ^r([0-9]+).search.html details.php?image_id=$1&%{QUERY_STRING}

2. Open /include/sessions.php before the last line add this code

//Mod_bmollet
/**
* Get the category url
* @param int $cat_id The id of the category
* @param string $cat_url The current status of the URL
*/
function get_category_url($cat_id,$cat_url = ”)
{
global $site_db;
$sql = “SELECT cat_name,cat_parent_id FROM “.CATEGORIES_TABLE.” WHERE cat_id = ‘”.$cat_id.”‘”;
$result = $site_db->query($sql);
$row = $site_db->fetch_array($result);
$row[’cat_name’] = strtr($row[’cat_name’], “éèêàëâúóíáABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ”,”eeeaeauoiaabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz”);
$cat_url = ‘_’.str_replace(’+',’_',urlencode($row[’cat_name’])).’_’.$cat_id.$cat_url;
// if you want full path of category in url, put next line in comment
return $cat_url;
if( $row[’cat_parent_id’] != 0)
{
return get_category_url($row[’cat_parent_id’],$cat_url);
}
else
{
return $cat_url;
}
}
//Mod_bmollet
/**
* Get the image url
* @param int $image_id The id of the image
*/
function get_image_url($image_id)
{
global $site_db;
$sql = “SELECT cat_id,image_name FROM “.IMAGES_TABLE.” WHERE image_id = ‘”.$image_id.”‘”;
$result = $site_db->query($sql);
$row = $site_db->fetch_array($result);
$row[’image_name’] = strtr($row[’image_name’], “éèêàëâúóíáABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ”,”eeeaeauoiaabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz”);
// if you want comlpete path to image in url, remove comment from following line
//return get_category_url($row[’cat_id’]).’-’.str_replace(’+',’-',urlencode($row[’image_name’])).’-’.$image_id;
return ‘_’.str_replace(’+',’_',urlencode($row[’image_name’])).’_’.$image_id;
}

GOOD SEO = Unstoppable Traffic = Money

This one I forgot for almost a month to optimize my site traffic performance. Meta Title, Keywords, and Description should be optimized to get maximum indexed by search engine. Play it with simple code modification, If you have dynamic site this can be done in easy by just change some parameters to optimize all that meta.

Example: Said you have a gaming site, By default all headers only optimized by fixed meta title, keyword, and description. I recommended you to change that fixed meta with dynamic meta.

How? Simple! give it at least game title on your page title it should optimized SEO if you familiar with php or html this can be done very easy. Play also with keywords and description make it more optimized by keyword search.

The last thing for SEO today is almost lot of search engine love to indexed “.html” more than indexed “.php?id=” If you’re running php site this can be fixed by mod rewrite. Sorry I can’t tell you totally 100% how you can change that “.php?id=” to become “.html” I just prefer you to search it on google on how you can make it, This way is recommended for you if you like to optimize your SEO.

This might not become a big attention for some webmaster but if you know how it works why you’re not try it. I’ll guarantee you will get more traffic after you optimized this meta.

Necessary or not necessary the answer is it NECESSARY!! Sitemap will not hurt you back? Why you’re not learn to optimize your SEO through sitemap. Learn from case, why visitor not come to your website? because your website is not visible!, Visible in here mean your website is hard to found by visitor who’s looking any information they needed. Through sitemap your website will got indexed and every time people search using specific keyword your website will showing in result.. that was I mean VISIBLE!

Take a look on my case on site www.ahuuy.com

Look how my website can showing on position 3 using keywords “flash online games” (more data can be found through google webmaster tools about keyword and website position on each unique keyword) it’s have lot of factor in result from your website title, your domain name, your meta keyword, and last from your meta description.

I will not write about it right now.. but I will writing about sitemap now. Did you know first time my website not indexed already by TOP 5 search engine my traffic has never blow up. Until I submit my sitemap to TOP 5 search engine until today I satisfied with traffic result. XML sitemap is the standard for google,yahoo,live/MSN,ask and maybe other search engine.

If you want to blow up your traffic you can build your own sitemap. There is lot of free sitemap generator you can found… for reference I personally recommended you to look on this list http://code.google.com/sm_thirdparty.html for wordpress you can use this nice plugins http://www.arnebrachhold.de/redir/sitemap-home/ once you create it submit to google webmaster tool, yahoo site explorer, live webmaster tool, and ping some search engine to started crawler your website. Wait 1-2 month and see how your traffic can blow up. You can use google analytic to analyze your traffic.

Good luck
