In order to do this the first thing that we need to do is to clarify some of the falsehoods out there which stand to mislead us.

The algorithm hilltop was created about ten years back and it, on the whole, does the analysis of all websites and tries to understand how one page links to the others and how it distinguishes between the authority and the sub pages. An authority page is the page which has the links that point at them, this is usually the main index page of your website. Sub pages have lots of links which are out bound and usually focus their text on a single resource as a backup to the index page.

Sandbox is a term which is used for Google's filters. Sandbox relates to the new sites are indexed. If any new site is entered in it, then it will not be indexed any longer and it may stay like that for six to twelve months before showing up on search engine results. The biggest thing that we need to know here is that each and every site does not go through sandbox as rumored; in fact it is rare if you experience this at all.

Now lets talk a bit about a SEO element which we need to implement in order to optimize your website. The first thing that should be noted is that while meta tags, such as description and keywords, are not really a big onsite SEO factor the are important in getting people to view your website once you have it ranked. You can hit the number one spot for a highly competitive term but what will it matter if your website looks like "New Website - Random paragraph", who would click that? This is one of the most important onsite SEO factors as it will help tell people what your website is really all about.

Keywords in domain names, header tags, content and title tags are a definite must for all search engines.Three to five outbound links may be included to your site as it will help in establishing your own site as the authority site. Another way to enhance the optimization of search engines on your website is to make your keywords, within your content, bold.

Its good to select about fifty keywords for the site with a page for each one making sure that the pages follow the rules mentioned above, each of the pages should be linked to in order to make sure that they are all indexed by Google's algorithm.

SEO can seem like a daunting task and it truly is but if you follow this simple tips for your website's on site SEO you are well on your way to ranking better in search engines.
