SEO Tips
Here’s a quick SEO tip for today:
Avoid using “stop” words in your keywords meta tags. These are the extremely common words such as “a, and, the, to, it, of, etc”, as the SE’s skip over these and can actually hurt your ranking because it messes with your keyword density.
It’s important to remember that weight is given to each word used and you don’t want any “useless” ones weakening your position. Think first now about what key phrase your site is about, so you won’t get ranked for the wrong things later!
