Keyphrases v.s Keywords

There is more to keywords than simply adding them into web pages and expecting them to work. Indeed, a few years ago it was possible to simply add in keywords and phrases pretty flamboyantly but as the world of the Internet grew so did its complexity and keywords and phrases must now be used with more card and attention. With times moving on so quickly, it is no longer possible to work out which words are the most used and relevant and it is more about how to incorporate the target words into a phrase.

A successfully optimised website will combine both keywords and keyphrases with the phrases often created from the keywords. If someone is searching for teak furniture then they are most likely to use the words teak and furniture as their search words and not place these words into quotation marks. However, if they were to put these words into quotation marks then their search term, as a keyphrase rather than keywords,  will be more accurately targeted. By placing the words into quote marks, search engines like Google will provide search results that are really targeted at the keyphrase and not tens of thousands of useless results that you get when you search without the phrase.

It goes without saying that many people who search for any type of product on the Internet will mis-spell or even mis-type things in their search terms. If you can include keywords and phrases that are commonly mis-spelled you will then rank highly on the searches for mis-spelt words as well. Teak will often be spelled teek so optimise for both spellings for the ultimate return in online traffic.This can be done by simply having a few articles in the website about mis-spellings and that way the word teek can be used as a keyword but not so that you look incompetent with your spelling!

Being careful with where you put your keywords and phrases into your website content is also vital as just throwing them in randomly and creating non-sensicle sentences, or even just uninteresting sentences, does not make for an appealing website to the real humans that will visit your website when they have been directed there via your high ranking with the search engines. Websites owners must remember that it is not good enough to simply have a high ranking on a search engine as you will not benefit or keep your high ranking if your website makes no sense when site visitors start to look at your pages.

Google’s New Search Version

August 26, 2009

We all have heard through the media about the Yahoo and Microsoft partnership for search project. Before the Yahoo and Microsoft search partnership, Microsoft spent a lot of time developing and improving Bing. With the competition heating up between the web technologies of today competition is becoming tougher – Facebook bought FriendFeed, The Yahoo and Microsoft partnership as well as other online developments

Google will not easily let Microsoft Bing steal its market shares.  Google’s new project is to update of their Google Search facilities.  This project is not just a simple update of the current search engine but a new infrastructure for the world’s largest search engine.  This will be the “Next generation architecture for Google’s Web Search” – According to Google’s Matt Cutts.

The New Google Search facility  is still under development, although Google is already assured with the success of the this project. In fact, they have already released the development version for the public.  The goal of Google in creating a newer version of their search engine is to improve the indexing, accuracy, size and comprehensiveness.

The new Google Search project only reminds us that although there have been recently a lot of changes in the search engine industry, Google won’t let their competition steal some of their market shares  and will intend to fight for it. There have already been reviews made in the development version of the New Google Search and it already got a few positive responses. Many of the responses are that the search is not only faster but it is more likely to produce real- time results. However, it is still early to have such conclusions. Let us wait for the full update of the all new Google Search.

Google’s step  has opened up better opportunities in the search engine industry. Competition between Google and the Yahoo- Microsoft partnership can result in quality, faster, relevant and reliable search engines. Users are the primary beneficiaries of the developments and competitions of these huge web technology companies. Competition between these companies improves overall searching and indexing online.

With developments within the seach engines, let us prepare ourselves for newer search engine techniques.  With such competition between Google and Yahoo- Microsoft  the common denominator between them is that  both search engines aims to deliver better search and indexing capabilities to Internet users.  Delivering Internet search satisfaction to every user.
