How to Create and design SEO-Friendly URL Structure

best seo friendly url structure  :

One of the most basic search engine optimization techniques is in using SEO-friendly URL structures. A good structure can help the indexation process of your website, but, unfortunately, there are plenty of websites that use incorrect, suboptimal URLs. In this article we take a look at the various elements of a URL and how we can create a structure that will help us rank as highly as possible.

Mind File Extensions

URLs that end in .html are favored by search engines. There are exceptions to this so make sure that you know your system well and that it’s friendly with search engine requirements.

Spammy URLs

If you still have certain doubts about your URL, go to a resource like seomoz.com There are spam detection tools that will help weed out things like spam words, and give you tips on hyphens, sub domain depth, domain length and digits. Again, all of this information is freely available online.

Hyphen vs. Underscores

The websites that contain an underscore in their URL are starting to become scarcer. The general belief now is that a user who is doing a Google search for “blue widget” will get better results from http://www.blue.com/blue-widget thanhttp://www.blue.com/blue_widget. Times change, and these protocols change as well.

Re-writing Your URLs

Lots of URLs that used to contain characters like &, +, =, _, $ and % are being overhauled to include more user- and search engine-friendly forward-slashes. This can get tricky, but there are plenty of tools out there to help facilitate this. Some are free open-source tools, and some are fee-based. The technical term is a “URL Mod-Rewrite” and this can easily be done via the .htaccess file on most servers.

Content optimization techniques for SEO

Content optimization techniques 

Content in the website is one of the most important parts for a website as well as it is also the most valuable element for SEO

Theming Content

The first question you need to ask yourself when optimizing a page is, What is the Page About?

If you can’t answer this or your answer is a keyword, then maybe you shouldn’t be building the page. Seriously. You need the page to be about something in order for it to have value on your website.

In the case of my client, the page was about a conference in Los Angeles where the company was going to exhibit. It’s starting to make sense now, isn’t it? Specifically, the page was about a single type of software it sells. Let’s call it Software A.

Putting Content Into Context

The second question you need to ask yourself is, What is the Purpose of This Page?

Is it news, a press release, a blog post, an educational piece, a sales piece? What are your goals with the page?

In my client’s case, the goal was to announce that it would be at the event and give a little bit of background about Software A. I’d call it a press release.

Consider Content Timing

The third consideration is: How long will this content remain relevant?

• Is it an educational piece that will always be useful?
• Is it a product explanation that will be relevant until the next version comes out?
• Is it a news item that will always be interesting?
• Is it an event that will recur?

In my client’s case, the page was about an event that would happen once (next week, in fact) and then be over.

Content Optimization

Finally, we get to optimization for search. Given the other questions you’ve asked, what makes sense for optimization?

• Are there relevant keywords to use?
• Should you include links to other content?
• What should the Title, Description and Heading say?

Making Decisions

The answer is, it depends. Don’t apply a one-size-fits-all method to your optimization. Sometimes it doesn’t make sense to even put keywords on a page. Sometimes a few well-optimized links are all you need. Either way, the answer is common sense.

In my client’s case, they were putting out a news item about a conference for Software A in LA next week. I chose two key phrases in the text and linked them back to Software A’s pages. I chose a Title and Heading that read something like, “Company Presents Software A at Conference.” Anything beyond that would have been overkill.

So next time you’re wondering how to optimize a page, first use the handy chart below.

Domain Age Plays important Role in Google search ranking

 Is Domain Age Plays important Role in Google search Ranking ?

There are many questions to answers,such as I have a domain which is four years old i have not setup hosting for that. if i use that domain to launch website will that help me in rankings? if, no then what factors in domain age are considered by Google ?


One SEO related question which is often asked throughout webmaster forums is how muchdomain registration age is important for SEO. 

The points behind this question include:

• well-established sites have old domain names, so by reverse logics, an old domain should mean that the site is well established;

• spammers register and drop domains quickly, thus logically spamming sites usually have newly registered domain names.

Generally, webmasters agree that domain age is hardly a powerful ranking factor but opinions vary:

• it can be no factor at all;

• it can play only a single minor factor in the millions of other factors (but it still is);

• it matters a lot (as most participants of this discussion seem to agree, for example).

Google’s patent “Information Retrieval Based on Historical Data” of 03/31/2005 reviewed by WebmasterWorld forum hugely accounted for these rumors implying that Google does look into domain registration 

While the patent does sound rather straightforward (by the way its official version is no longer available online, so it might have been deleted), domain age factor is bothoverestimated and misinterpreted. 

My point is simple: domain registration date cannot speak for either quality or trustworthiness of a website as:

• domains can be registered but never used for a long time (parked);

• new domains can be used for highly established companies (with the old domain 301-redirecting to the new one);

• a domain name can be used for illegitimate purposes for years and then sold to a “good” person/ company without any change of the initial registration date.

Thus my verdict to the whole dispute is as follows:

• Website age (and its backlink profile age) is what really matters;

• Domain age can play a minor part only as damping factor – i.e. one of the factors signaling the search engine that this might be a spammy / illegitimate site;

• Old domains may carry more weight due to their past records (i.e. old backlinks pointing to them) – this can be a good point to consider but then again if you are serious about your brand, keep in mind that an established domain already has associations and history before you own it and they might be hard to conquer.

Conclusion: domain registration date won’t of course hurt but it will hardly help. So I would focus on registering a new short niche-related and catchy domain name instead of trying to buy an old (previously owned by someone) one.

Strategies to make search engine ranking constant

HOW TO DO STABLE SEARCH ENGINE RANKING 

According to my experience, Google has a little bit its own decision to fluctuate results. My suggestion regarding this that perform proper competitive analysis to your competitors. those who are upper than you in the rank, perform complete analysis on all of these that what they are doing which you are not.

"While not difficult, it does take time and effort to optimize your website for Google and other major search engines. After you get the ranking, the work doesn't end, as constant monitoring, tweaking and optimizing is needed to keep your rank. So you can do exactly that, some SEO maintenance tips are given below.

As the Google's algorithm is highly confidential and we cannot assume the real factor, we cannot do a constant sort of process for keeping your position in top place. Fluctuation is an usual thing in Google SERPs. But keep trying on writing more quality contents and trying to get the more visitors.Don't stop off page activities. If you think that you have done excess then lack the number of submission but be regular.

As you said you have generated enough backlinks...Very first thing analyse again those backlinks. If you find any backlink of low quality or suspicious remove it instantly otherwise you may lose your current position also as Google is now focusing more on link profiles. If you have a clean and clear backlink profile, your site will automatically rank high. Keep up the good work..

You should do quality work for your site. You should collect good quality backlink. You should do on page of your site change the content of your site if it is copied to other and generate meta for all the pages of your website.

Press Releases links will not have impact in future

Matt Cutts : Press Releases links will not have impact in future 

An old fashion and sometimes often used method today, to get links to your web site, is to use press releases with embedded links in those releases.

So you'd contract a press release distribution company and make sure that the content of the release have links to your web site. That release would hopefully be syndicated by other news outlets and those outlets will keep the links intact.

Matt Cutts of Google said in a Google Webmaster Help forums that links from press releases shouldn't have a positive impact on your rankings.

Matt wrote:

Note: I wouldn't expect links from press release web sites to benefit your rankings, however.

Now, when you do press releases, it might get your web site in front of the eyes of bloggers, reporters and others, where what they write or link to may have an impact on your rankings. But the links within the releases themselves, Google says - they won't benefit your rankings.

Google makes porn images harder to find

The mighty promoter of the free Internet for all, freedom of expression and the like, has made a significant change to the way it displays explicit images in its image search. reddit users, and not only them, are in disbelief, and their concerns about censorship attracted immediate media attention. While Google denies intent of censorship, users can no longer find porn easily with Google image search. The ability to turn SafeSearch on and off on Google image search is now replaced with “filter explicit images” and “report offensive images.”

Google image results for a common sex act are funny and far from porn. But when you “filter explicit images” this particular search will show no results.

Some more innocent queries like “boob” (a term listed in any English dictionary) will not return any results with “filter explicit images” on – a silly thing if you consider the first definition of the term: a stupid awkward person. Only the second definition of the term refers to a woman’s breast. One could argue that Google image search is now broken, if “boob” will not show any results when SafeSearch is active. This is just one of the many examples we could use to make the point.

Indexing with robots.txt, meta tags and canonical

Why should search engines influence indexing?

There’s a variety of reasons to control indexing and thus to dictate how a search engine should deal with websites and links:

• Allow or disallow following links
• Prevent indexing of irrelevant websites
• Index duplicate content under only one URL

The goal, of course, is to deliver only relevant HTML pages to the engine. But this doesn’t always happen properly. Duplicate content quickly occurs due to technical problems or the ubiquitous ‘human factor‘, which is is all to common. But there are ways to keep an index clean and counteract this.

Which methods work?

I will be covering 3 methods for influencing the indexing for your site. Which ones these are and how they can be used.

/Robots.txt protocol

The /robots.txt is like a ‘bouncer‘ for search engine crawlers. It explicitly allows which crawlers may search which pages/sections on a domain. Most of the crawlers follow the /robots.txt file, but it is more a suggestion, not an order.

The /robots.txt file primarily uses two instructions:

User-agent: – determines which crawler should apply for the following instructions

Allow/disallow: – determines the file or the index

An empty line closes the data set.

The /robot.txt file generally looks like this:

# robots.txt for http://www.example.de/
User-agent: ROBOTNAME
Disallow: /pictures/
User-agent: *
Disallow: /confidentialData/
Disallow: /allPasswords.html

If you want to respond to the crawler, use the following expression: User-agent: *

Be careful, with disallow/ you block: / all robots from the entire domain. If there is no organic traffic to a site, this could be the reason.

As long work is being done in a test environment and the data should not yet be found, it is useful to not index complete indexes.

Crawlers from dubious providers usually are not influenced by /robots.txt. But established search engines do observe the instructions.

But why should I disallow crawlers access to parts of my domain?

It’s very simple. Not all webserver contents should appear in a search engine index. The instructions request the crawler to not execute indexing for certain pathways. This could be the case, for instance, when there are test pages on the webserver that are not yet ready for the public. Or, it could be that not all pictures in a folder should be indexed.

/robots.txt is particularly suited to prevent the indexing of non-relevant HTML pages. However, page URLs can still end up in the index. For example, if pages are to be externally linked. If this is the case, no snippet is displayed in the SERPs. If individual URLs should be excluded from the index, the following methods are suitable.

Meta tags

Two elements of meta tags are useful for controlling crawlers and indexing HTML pages. How the crawler should proceed with the indexing and the links to the HTML pages can be set for every HTML page.

The meta instructions <meta name=”robots” content=”index,follow” /> responds to the crawler for every HTML page individually and gives it the following possible instructions:

Parameter	Meaning
content=”index,follow”	index HTML page, links follow
content=”noindex,follow”	do not index HTML page, links follow
content=”index,nofollow”	index HTML page, links donot follow
content=”noindex,nofollow”	do not index HTML page, links do not follow

This tells the crawler whether it may take the HTML page into the index and whether it can follow the links in the HTML page. Links from “nofollow” HTML pages do not pass PageRank or other forms of link equity. The “nofollow” attribute can be specifically used to devalue links on an HTML page.

When dealing with documents that have no HEAD area, the X-Robots tag can help. This tag allows non-HTML documents, such as pictures or PDF files, to be limitedly indexed.

Meta tags are best used to prohibit following links or indexing individual HTML pages.

Canonicals

The canonical tag is primarily an aid to prevent duplicate content in the index. Canonicals tell search engines that instead of the page it found, the original (more relevant) page should be in the index.

The canonical tag belongs in the head area of an HTML page and is used as follows:

<link rel=”canonical” href=”http://www.example.de/rightpage.html”>

Duplicate content occurs as follows, for instance:

• URLs can be found with and without www.
• Session IDs are used in the URLs
• similar content to the HTML page
  • the same product can be offered in several categories

It is useful to give every HTML page a canonical tag with its own URL so that they refer to themselves. In this way, potential URL tracking parameters don’t cause duplicate content.
