About Using Paragraphs

 

Paragraph Text is spidered

Paragraphs are very important to the search help because this will lead to a page result inside the 'search window results'. Each paragraph should be less than 400 characters and include a clearly written, well understood meaning that includes one or two keyword matches for you website design and help. Each paragraph inside your web site design must be between 300 to 400 characters. No more, no less. This paragraph has 362 characters.

Tips: Study the paragraph above, it contains very specific keyword matches for the discussion article on this page. Can you find them, (2) web site design, (3) paragraph, (1) paragraphs, (2) help. That is the main descriptive article on this page for 'Web Site Design Help'. Can you notice that this paragraph also includes the same keywords as above? The below sections include one or two randomly.

The difference between single line and paragraphs (like this one)

Single lines less than 8 words are rarely picked up and displayed within the search results. Splitting the page article into one line highlights is great for your reader or web surfer. Picking up quickly the articles main theme is the reason for the page, so make it easy for people to highlight sections within the page.

Counting how many characters are in one paragraph. Use the 'word count' function in Microsoft Word or your text editor program. If you dont use a program with such a facility, find and bookmark a web site assistance page and use it. And/or as with these pages, look at the approximate length of the paragraphs. Each five to six line paragraph within this site equals 300 to 400 characters!

Did you know that all web pages are served from doc servers?

This means, grammar, textual information, paragraphs and font size all play an important part in how your pages are indexed. All elements are recorded and stored in a <txt> format, including page relationships. Images are served from your host, and lay in wait.

Short or long paragraphs can be listed anywhere in the page. If you know your most read area of the page, add a full length (400 character) section. For other areas where a short descriptive text is better, design for the reader and results.

 

Hypertext Matching

 

Hypertext Matching is the relationship of text based hyperlinks that point to other pages on the web. Engines perform analysis of your hypertext (hyperlinks in a text form) and broad based page matching to establish the relationship between page and hypertext, and the marriage of terms. Poor Hypertext links will affect your overall standing. Keep any links that are text based accurate. Don't over use keywords and always write in a natural manner that benefits your readers.

The engines / crawlers analyze all sections-components of your pages. You should pay attention to every element of your page. Including Hypertext links. Using only a few hypertext links to a page is not enough to be recognized as a valid element. If you haven't yet read the article Initial Page Rank, this explains in detail better ways to link pages, marry paragraphs and use your entire site to increase your search results.

Rename your ID Tags

 

Use the ID Tags for effect. Did you know you can rename your tables, ID's, DIV Classes and more within your page. Use keywords inside your coding for each table, cell or div. <td id="MainContent">

If you use CSS to design the site, keep your classes keyword friendly. Remember though, dont spam, it wont work.  ( <td id="MainContent-Search-Engine-Optimisation" That would soon be penalized )

 

Write your paragraphs with composed grammar and accurate descriptive text.

Importance is also placed on grammatical correctness. Use your text editor software to give you assistance and recommendations.
