Posted by Elijah in SEO (Search Engine Optimization) on May 19th, 2009
Dear Readers,
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is given and considered the more technical of Web marketing. Yes !.. , This is true because SEO does help in the promotion of web sites and then the same time it need some technical knowledge at least good basic in HTML(Hyper Text Markup Langauage). SEO is sometimes also called SEO copyrighting because most of the techniques that are used to promote sites in search engines deal with your own content. Generally, SEO can be defined as the good of optimizing Web pages or web sites in order to make them more search engine friendly, thus getting higher positions and higher rank in search results.
Very important of the basic SEO is that even if you do all the things that are necessary to do, this does not automatically undertake you top ratings but if you lack of attention and due care basic rules, this certainly will not go unnoticed. Also, if you set realistic goals – i.e to get into the top 30 results in Google for a particular keyword, rather than be the number one for 10 keywords in 5 search engines, you will feel happier and more satisfied with your results.
* create and put your own meta keywords.
* Avoid duplicate content and keywords.
* Create your own content relations between your goal of your website.
* Avoid duplicate Contents.
* use 160 to 180 characters for content(include space). It may be deffer according to Search Engine.
All the best to all ….
Best image replacement method

Why we need Image Replacement ?
Generally to insert an image in an HTML document, we use <img> tag. The problem with <img> is when the images are disabled by browser. Adding alternative text using the alt attribute disallows HTML markup and causes problems with some search robots.
The solution to this problem is “Image Replacement”. The HTML and CSS are used to show the image.
Issues with Image Replacement
In earlier, the FIR (Fahrner Image Replacement) was used to perform Image Replacement technique. A very big issue is the text and the image will not be displayed when the CSS is disabled by browser.
Best Technique
We should display either the text or the image in the web page, even though both image and the css are turned off. However Dave Shea’s Revised Image Replacement technique is the best one to achieve this.
HTML part
<h3 id=”header” title=”Revised Image Replacement”>Revised Image Replacement</h3>
CSS part
#header
{
width: 329px;
height: 25px;
position: relative;
}
#header span {
background: url(sample-opaque.gif) no-repeat;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
In the above example to display the image, instead of img tag, we use the background image. The alt tag is the reason to get the hover effect but here it is not. So the title tag of the header h3 does that job.
