10 Costly Search Engine Mistakes to Avoid – Part 2
By: Brad Eden
6. Relying on hidden text.
You might be inclined to think that if you cannot see it, it doesn't hurt.
Wrong.... Do not try to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them
invisible. For example, some unethical designers my set the keywords to the
same color as the background of the web page; thereby, making it invisible.
7. Relying on tiny text.
This is another version of the item above (relying on hidden text). Do not try
to hide your keywords or keyword phrases by making them tiny. Setting the text
size of the keywords so small that it can barely be seen does this.
8. Assuming all search engines are the same.
Many people assume that each search engine plays by the same rules. This is not
so. Each has their own rule base and is subject to change anytime they so
desire. Make it a point to learn what each major search engine requires for
high visibility.
9. Using free web hosting.
Do not use free web hosting if you are really serious about increasing site
traffic via search engine visibility. Many times the search engines will
eliminate content from these free hosts.
10. Forgetting to check for missing web page elements.
Make sure to check every page in your website for completeness, like missing
links, graphics, etc. There are sites on the web that will do this for free.
This is just a few of the methods and techniques that you should avoid.
Do not give in to the temptation that these methods will work for you. They
will do more harm than good for your website.
Not only will you spend weeks of wasted effort, you may have your site
banned from the search engines forever. Invest a little time to learn the
proper techniques for increasing search engine visibility and your net traffic
will increase.
