· Use both the ALT and the TITLE attributes of your images - they are given about the same weight by search engines. However, note that different browsers treat them differently.
· Don’t forget that every HTML element can be stylized by CSS. The H1 tag is given big importance by search engine spiders, but you might not like its default look. Just apply some stylization, and it can even be masked as normal inline text.
· While optimizing the HTML code of your pages is an important aspect of SEO, it is not the only one. Even if your pages are in their best shape, all the effort is for naught if the search engine spiders don’t reach you. After initial optimization, take a minute to submit the site to a few directories or engines.
· Remember that your site is visited not only by search engine robots, but by humans as well. Try to keep balance between user-friendliness and keyword optimization, if you plan on converting your visitors to paying customers.
· Having your site ranked well on the results page doesn’t mean that it always will be. Your competition isn’t sleeping, and your site’s position is constantly being targeted by dozens of other sites. Be sure to make regular updates, and optimize any new pages you add.
· Avoid using one-word keywords, as they are too general to bring real customers to your site. When a serious surfer types a search query, it will often consist of a product name, or a specific type of merchandise. For example, if your site deals in beds, consider optimizing some of your pages for "cheap adjustable beds," or "metal bunk beds" for example.
