 <title>Top 5 most common mistakes with do-it-yourself SEO</title>
 <link>http://webhostph.com/blog/index.php?itemid=66</link>
<description><![CDATA[by: Joe Balestrino <br />
<br />
I look at a lot of sites on a daily basis. There are a lot of common problems I see on sites. Some people may have tags set-up improperly or use tags that have no real purpose. I have compiled a list of the 5 top do-it-yourself SEO errors. It's safe to say that many do-it-yourselfers may have at least one of these errors on their sites. These should help you omit these often costly mistakes and pull you up in the ranks. <br />
<br />
<b>1) Keyword tag</b> – A keyword tag is for keywords, but not for any keywords. You can’t just stuff this tag with keywords that your entire site is related to. The tags should reflect keywords only on that particular page; not the entire site and not every keyword you think your site might be searched on. Also, you should have no more then 20 words in the tag. You should not repeat any word more than 3 times. If you sell tickets, for example, don't write: Broadway tickets, circus tickets, hockey tickets, boxing tickets and so on. Do use Broadway, circus, hockey, boxing, tickets and so on. <br />
<br />
<b>2) Abstract tag</b> – It is sometimes used as a replacement for or combined with a description tag. However, more and more people are using these to stuff keywords. Search engines like Google are interested in what is on the page. More specifically, what visitors can view. In my opinion, the abstract tag has no place on a site. <br />
<br />
<b>3) Description Tag</b> – The whole point behind this tag is to describe what the “page” is about. Keywords related to the page should be implemented as well. The limit on words should be 20 – 25. I see many website owners stuffing this tag with keywords, or having a description that is entirely too lengthy. Stay within these guidelines and you will be fine. <br />
<br />
<b>4) Title Tag</b> – This, to me, is the most important tag. This is the first tag the search engine reads. It tells the search engine what the” page” is about. Don't put your web address here. Do not add your company name in the beginning of this tag either. It should not exceed 60 characters. <br />
<br />
<b>5) Content</b> - If you notice, I have been commenting on relevancy to the “page”, not your overall site. Each page has it’s own keywords. Tag the title tag, description and keyword tags. All of these keywords should be the same. Add them to your content as well. Now your page should be fairly well optimized. <br />
<br />
Why do sites fall short? Simple, content is not optimized. Search engines are, for the most part, pretty basic. You type in a search term and it retrieves sites containing those terms while also taking a few other factors into account. So, if your site doesn’t have these terms, how will you be found? You won’t. Over do it with keywords and you will experience the same result, but for different reasons. Sometimes reading everything about SEO can be bad. Trying too many tricks, tips or methods is like too many cooks spoiling the soup. In the end they can do more bad than good. These are very basic rules that should be followed by all. In, doubt? Always consult or hire an SEO professional. <br />

 <title>Testimonials can boost your site traffic</title>
 <link>http://webhostph.com/blog/index.php?itemid=54</link>
<description><![CDATA[Take advantage of the power of testimonials. When your visitors don’t know you yet, and you’re trying to attract them to buy or frequently return, there’s nothing better than third-party endorsements to do the marketing for you. This would increase your credibility, and make the prospect feel like they’ll be in good company by doing business with you.<br />
<br />
Hence, we recommend to add "Testimonials” page on your web site. But it's always good to put at least some of the testimonials on your first page so your prospects can read them and get be moved without having to click several links. ]]></description>

 <title>Have your very own test server from your desktop</title>
 <link>http://webhostph.com/blog/index.php?itemid=52</link>
<description><![CDATA[So you want to become a web developer? To continually grow your web developing skills, it is always good to have a test server so that you can try out your codes before putting them online. It’s not hard to get one. You can have your very own test server right out of your own PC; that is, through XAMPP or its light version, XAMPPLite. <br />
<br />
XAMPP is an Apache distribution that puts together key web development technologies such as Apache web server, PHP, MySQL and Perl, among others. It is very easy to install, in fact, you can do it in five minutes. No fussy configurations necessary. Here’s what you need to do:<br />
<ol ><br />
<li>Download xampplite for windows. Unpack the package into a directory of your choice but it must be a top-level directory like c:\xampplite or e:\xampplite)</li><li>Enter the xampplite directory and start the "setup_xampp.bat" to begin installation. </li><br />
<br />
<li>If installation ends successfully, start the Apache servers and MySQL by clicking xampp_start. (click xampp_stop to shut it down).</li><br />
<br />
<li>Test if it’s working by starting your browser and typing http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost in the location bar. If it’s working, you should see a pre-made start page with certain examples and test screens.</li><br />
<br />
<li>To test your own pages, place your files in the xampplite\htdocs folder and then try to access them from your browser. </li><br />
</ol><br />
If you wish to remove xampplite, simply remove the xampplite folder, but only after making sure Apache and mySQL had been shut down. <br />
<br />
If you’re using a different operating system, there’s a distribution for Linux, Solaris, and Mac OS X. One good thing about using XAMPP is that even if you’re not connected to the Internet, you can view and test your codes and web pages. The best part, however, is that it’s absolutely free.]]></description>
