i.e. Load - Bank Loan, Student Loan, Equity Loan, etc. - Order and placement of Keywords matters

- Where in a document the terms occur (distribution)
- The co-citation frequency between terms (co-occurance)
- The main theme, topic, and sub-topics (on-topic issues) of the documents
- Use Keyword in your domain or sub domain of website.
i.e. equityloans.com - Use hyphens (-) to seperate multiple keywords
i.e. bank-loans, student-loans. Each covers two keywords. - Use relevant directory and file names that reflect your keywords.
i.e. codeExamples.html incorporates code and examples. or bankLoans.html. - Spell check, Declare document Type, Validate HTML & CSS. Search Engines do not like pages with errors. Make sure they're clean and valid.
- Put Titles on your pages (60-80 characters) that are relevant.
- Heading Tags - Include the most important keyword phrases in the heading tags.
- Specifiy Meta Keywords in Heading of document (15 - 29 words). Most search engine do not give these importance, but they are still good to have.

i.e. programming, coding, etc. - Hyperlink keywords in text. Do not create hyperlinks that say "click here".
- Assign "alt" attributes to images.
