between traditional and search engine friendly web designs, and tells you how to design a web
page that is search engine friendly.  After all, you can design and build the most attractive,
functional and content-rich web site on the planet but, according to Forrester Research, if it does
not appear at or near the top of search engine results, 97% of the people searching the web are
never going to find you. You will be virtually
invisible.   

SEARCH ENGINE FRIENDLY WEB SITE DESIGN:

Designing and building a search engine friendly web site that appears at or near the top of
search engine results is not easy.  Traditional web site design and search engine friendly
design are different. High quality traditional web site design ensures web sites are functionally
rich, easy-to-navigate, robust and scalable.  A well designed search engine friendly web site
does all that and more.  A search engine friendly SEO web site design :

  • ensures all the major search engines can easily and effectively index the site;

  • ensures visitors can find the web site using common, every-day search terms, operating
    systems and browsers; and

  • encourages visitors to contact you, ask questions, purchase from you, search for
    information from you -- all conversions leading to high customer satisfaction and profit.

HOW TO DESIGN A WEB PAGE THAT IS SEARCH ENGINE FRIENDLY:

Please review our site disclaimer before deciding to use any of these guidelines.

The first step in learning how to design a web page that will be search engine friendly is to first
learn
about search engines - how search engines find, spider and index web pages. Once you
know that, you are going to be in a better position to make decisions about the web site and web
page design.  

If you are a web developer or programmer, you'll want a cheat sheet that you can post on the wall
and refer to frequently.  An
excellent & FREE SEO-friendly web page developer's cheat sheet has
been developed by Danny Dover at SEOMoz.  We recommend you print this & use it along with
our architecture / design guidelines for
how to design a web page that is search engine friendly.  

It is important to know
about meta tags , which ones we recommend using, and which common
search engine does not use the keyword meta tag.  

The last thing you will need is advice on
web site content writing for visitors and search engines.  
It's a long list.  The most important thing to remember is to always write as though you were
addressing a first time visitor to your site.  Think about what they might want and give it to them!
