Website Design Checklist V - Using Keywords

Once you have worked out your keywords or phrases for each page ensure you have done the following.

Have I used my keywords properly?

Yes if you have;
1. Put your Keywords for that page at the BEGINNING the title of the page and have removed the word HOME from the title of the home page. Unless say you are an interior designer that word does not help your SEO one bit!
2. Put your Keywords for that page in the main heading (h1) for that page.
3. Used your Keywords for that page in Alt attributes for any images on the page.
4. Used your Keywords for that page in anchor text of internal links pointing to that page.
5. Made your page’s Keywords bold and italic within the page content a few times. Don’t overdo it.
6. Used your page Keywords the the beginning and end of the body text.
7. Used Keywords in the folder names leading to your page instead of generics like subpages etc.
8. Used Keywords in the URL for your page.
