Hey webmasters, we got a cool SEO Rapper… I can’t say another word.
Here is the lyrics :
Design Coding
Your site design is the first thing people see
it should be reflective of you and the industry
easy to look at with a nice navigation
when you can’t find what you want it causes frustration
a clear Call to action to increase the temptation
use appealing graphics they create motivation
if you have animation
use with moderation
cause search engines can’t index the information
display the logos of all your associations
highlight your contact info that’s an obligation
create a clean design you can use some decoration
but to try to prevent any client hesitation
According to The Nielsen Company (Consumer Market Researcher) recent statistical updates reads a huge jump in the usage of social networking and blogging sites.
As per the total minutes spent on social networking media sites the year-over-year percentage is estimated to have 83% increase. As expected, Facebook is on the top of the list with almost 700 year-over-year percent increase from April 2008 up to April 2009 which an increase of 1.7 Million to 13.8 Billion minutes in one year, although Twitter should be on the top of the list for having a year-over-year percentage of 3712 but the data arranged according to minutes spent. That’s impressive.
This has been regularly asked question in forums and discussions and I’m blogging about this since web services for locals would be interested to get free and easy traffic to their sites.
In the big picture Google always push high quality pages in their SERPs in response to the key of delivering quality pages to users, and as always none is certainly sure how Google algorithm work to achieve this, but when it comes to local related searches like for instance this one (hotels in Paris) the old theory says that a site will more likely show in SERPs if the query talks about a location AND the site has the same Country Code Top Level Domain (CCTLD for short).
Walking an extra mile in design accessibility might cost some time, but with little easy tweaks you could improve site visitor experience and accessibility with a customized 404 error page.
Obviously, a 404 page shown when a visitor reached a url that can’t be found on the server, whatever the reason is your 404 page should deliver a clear message to the visitor and avoid any confusions, and as per Google webmaster central using a soft 404 page is not recommended for SEO reasons as quoted from google webmaster central
