It is important to make your site SEO friendly. If your site is not SEO friendly, it will be difficult to rank on the search engine.
One way to make your site SEO friendly is to shorten the timeframe for the webpage to be downloaded. If your website takes a long time to load, nobody will be interested in visiting it anymore. Everyone likes to browse website that loads fast. The homepage and the internal pages should take under 5 seconds to load. If your site is taking a long time to load, you should take the necessary actions to make it load faster. Sites that are hosted on a cheap server will take a long time to load. If your server host a lot of websites, your website will probably take a long time to load. Shared hosting server has a limited bandwidth. If you are using the bandwidth up to the maximum, you will find that the pages take a long time to load. To solve this problem, you can move to another shared hosting server that has a larger disk space and higher bandwidth. The best solution is to purchase a virtual private server and host all your sites there. The virtual private server offers a larger disk space and higher bandwidth. Virtual private server is an alternative to people that don’t have money to buy the dedicated hosting. The dedicated hosting costs a few hundred dollars per month whereas a virtual private server costs as little as twenty dollars per month.
Another reason that cause the webpage to load slow is the large image file size. Before using an image in your article, make sure it is compressed. You should not use png or bitmap images in your content. The best image format you can use are jpg and gif image files. The png and bitmap image can be as large as a few hundred MBs even if it is a small image. If you own Photoshop software, you can reduce the image file size by lowering the quality scale. The jpeg options dialog box will pop up when you attempt to save the image. In the jpeg options dialog box, you can adjust the quality scale to under 5.
The article should not be stuffed with too many keywords. If the article is stuffed with keywords, it won’t get indexed in the search engine. Keyword stuffed articles will be seen as spam by most search engines. You can check the keyword density of the article by counting the number of keywords. The ideal keyword density for each article is 2 – 3%. Different article directories have different keyword densities. You can refer to the submission guidelines to find out the minimum keyword density in the article. For example, if your article has 600 words, the number of keywords allowed is 12 – 18. Hence, if the keyword is wedding cake, you can repeat it for 6 – 9 times.
If you are using Microsoft Office Word to prepare the article, you can use the highlight feature to highlight the keywords in the article. The highlight feature can be accessed from the find search box.
