Although I can see the reasons for implementing flash into a search engine, it looks pretty well but some of the users might encounter difficulties while using the technology. I'm not sure that Flash can be faster than AJAX but, as I said, &lt;a href="http://www.searchmash.com/"&gt;SearchMash&lt;/a&gt; works without any lag. However, this special flavor of the search product is compatible with Firefox and Internet Explorer, any other browser such as Opera being incompatible. The thumbnails are provided Snap.com, a service which is already implemented into numerous websites on the web.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"This is where detailed information about the currently selected result appears. For web results this may include an image preview of the website, a brief snippet from the page, and additional links. The links allow you to go straight to the site homepage, perform the same search including results only from that site, and open a cache of the page in case it is no longer available," the &lt;a href="http://www.searchmash.com/"&gt;SearchMash&lt;/a&gt; FAQ describes the result preview.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Besides the search results, &lt;a href="http://www.searchmash.com/"&gt;SearchMash&lt;/a&gt; is now also providing tips which might improve your searching experience with several hidden tricks. "Throughout your search you may see tips appear here. There are context sensitive and give clues how to use advanced features. Any given tip will only appear a few times at most. You may disable tips via the options on the left," the same source adds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Personally, I don't see the results preview as such an important improvement because some of the users might find them really annoying. Also, I'm not sure there are so many searchers who would like to view the page preview of their results unless they are looking for a website having its appearance in mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Source: &lt;a href="http://news.softpedia.com/news/Google-Tests-Flash-Based-Search-Engine-69258.shtml"&gt;Flash Based Search Engine &lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22948800-1506582070213414382?l=seorajesh.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seorajesh.blogspot.com/feeds/1506582070213414382/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=22948800&amp;postID=1506582070213414382' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22948800/posts/default/1506582070213414382'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22948800/posts/default/1506582070213414382'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seorajesh.blogspot.com/2007/10/flash-based-search-engine-google.html' title='Flash Based Search Engine - Google'/><author><name>Rajesh</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22948800.post-5327701246455733379</id><published>2007-10-22T23:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-10-22T23:38:17.300-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SMO'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SMM'/><title type='text'>233 Social Networking Sites</title><content type='html'>List Of Social Networking sites. i found this valuable list from &lt;a href="http://www.vandelaydesign.com/blog/social-media/list-social-networks/"&gt;Vandelay design&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TECHNOLOGY:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;Social media marketing is a relatively new marketing concept which makes use of social networks and social media sites to further online marketing opportunities. It involves publicity, viral marketing and buzz creation. The goal is to create a visitor experience that is unique and generates a desire for guests to: &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Continually revisit the      site &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Link to the site &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Virally spread the word      about the site &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;With the development of Web 2.0, the content of a site should create a buzz, be fresh, and be interactive. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2&gt;What is Social Media Optimization?&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Social media optimization makes a site visible within the social media search engines, make content easy to link to and tag, as well as being involved in social media conversations. Once optimized in this way it can bring increased traffic directly from social media search engines. Social media is in a constant state of change. Therefore it is important that developments are constantly observed and incorporated. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Content on the site can include&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Written text &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Photos &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Graphics &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Video &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Podcasts &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Games &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Competitions &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Blogs or Forums &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Example of social media platforms include:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Blogs &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Forums &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Wikis &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Video Casting &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Photo Distribution &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Podcasts &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Social Networking Space &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Social Bookmarking and      Tagging Opportunities &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The goal is of social media marketing is to publicize all types of web content. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;What are the benefits of Social Media Marketing? What can you expect from a social media marketing campaign? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Increase Brand Awareness      &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Understand your      Customers &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Generate New Business &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Social media marketing and optimization developed from Web 2.0 which refers to a second generation of the web spotlighting online collaboration and sharing among users. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Two concepts which are closely related to social media marketing and optimization are link baiting and RSS feeds. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h3&gt;Link Bait&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Links are important for search engine positioning. Great content can be used as ‘link bait.’ This can attract natural links from a variety of sources back to your site. This means that your links come from a diverse range of sites which is viewed as natural by search engines. This is done by publicizing the content and getting people to talk about the content, discussing it on forums and blogs, tagging it on sites such as Digg, Del.icio.us, Furl etc., emailing the information to others, and linking to it from their own sites. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h3&gt;RSS Feeds (Syndication of Content)&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;p&gt;RSS is a XML-based system that allows users to subscribe to their favorite websites. They can use RSS to read the latest news, press, articles, etc. Additionally, many sites and blogs are set up to collect and display the RSS feeds. Therefore, content from your site is positioned on these sites, spreading the reach of your brand. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;For business owners social networks bring in traffic as well as giving an opportunity to interact with your audience. What does social media marketing need? &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ul type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Creativity &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Marketing &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(60, 157, 200);"&gt;Personality &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Elixir Systems have a wealth of experience with social media marketing strategies and have been using these to further their client’s online business goals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22948800-6028967150320302674?l=seorajesh.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seorajesh.blogspot.com/feeds/6028967150320302674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=22948800&amp;postID=6028967150320302674' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22948800/posts/default/6028967150320302674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22948800/posts/default/6028967150320302674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seorajesh.blogspot.com/2007/09/social-media-marketing-social-media.html' title='Social Media Marketing | Social Media Optimization'/><author><name>Rajesh</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22948800.post-6295598827877179377</id><published>2007-08-21T23:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-10-21T23:14:48.255-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SEO'/><title type='text'>28 SEO Steps to Win Search Engine Rankings</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Recently I found the collection of information about the On-Page &amp;amp; Off-Page Optimization from  &lt;a href="http://yourpracticeonline.rediffblogs.com/"&gt;http://yourpracticeonline.rediffblogs.com/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;I hope it will be very useful for optimizing a website!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Search Engines are built to help the searchers.

Determine what kind of services your website is to provide and what kind of audience you want for your website? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.seo-gold.com/seo-tutorial/domain-name-choice/"&gt;Dont Purchase a New Domain&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; If you already have a good domain name donâ€™t try to purchase a new one, as some search engines look for the &lt;em&gt;age of the website&lt;/em&gt; as a ranking factor. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.seo-gold.com/seo-tutorial/domain-name-choice/"&gt;Choosing your Domain Name&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; If you are planning for a new website, try to get a domain name with keywords included. If you target regional customers, you can have your domain based on the region, say for example .uk or .au or .in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Make your Website look Clean &amp;amp; Simple &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Now you have a domain name and you know whom you want to target.

Make your navigation user friendly, no visitor should leave your website due to confused navigation. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Check for W3 compatibility of your website. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Check for any broken links in your website and fix if any. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Your website should load fast so that it doesnâ€™t check on your visitorsâ€™ patience. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.stephanspencer.com/archives/2006/05/01/competitive-analysis-critical-to-seo-success/"&gt;Observe your competitor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Find your competitor websites.

With good anchor text for your navigation links you can improve your rankings &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.highrankings.com/allabouttitles.htm"&gt;Write an Attractive Title&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Why is your web page title so important? The web page title is displayed in SERPs which in turn help in attracting your visitors. Web searchers do their search with a term and look for titles in the result pages that best fit their search. Hence make your title attractive, with targeted keywords included. Try to incorporate related keywords too. For example you target for Montessori School, you can write title as â€˜ Montessori School, the Preschool for your Childrenâ€™. (in this way you add 2 related terms). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.highrankings.com/metadescription.htm"&gt;Meta Description Tag&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Description tag is also displayed in snippets of any SERPs. This description helps to motivate searchers to visit your website. Make an effective and optimized description tag. Snippets are also taken from surrounding text of the searched keyword. You may need to edit your content a little to make your description look good. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Meta&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Keyword Tag &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Though there is saying that Search Engines like Google doesnâ€™t look for Meta keyword tag, there are some smaller search engines, which still follow the conventional way and spider the keywords tag. So there is no harm in making of the Meta keyword tags. Your meta keyword should contain keywords that appears in your body text. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Have Robot tags &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; If you donâ€™t want any of your files of your website to be indexed, say an image or a text file, you can write your robot file insisting the search engines not to crawl those pages. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://forums.searchenginewatch.com/showthread.php?t=8149"&gt;Alt Tags for images&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; As the name infers it acts as an alternate text for any image. This tag is both user friendly and search engine friendly. Search engines cannot read images; instead it indexes the alt tag given for any image and assumes it as the description for the image. This alt tag is not so important by Search Engines, as many spammers try to put irrelevant alt tag for the images to improve their rankings. However for an image link with a proper alt tag (keywords included) will work as great internal anchor link. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; H1 &amp;amp; H2 heading format &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Though no one is sure on whether this helps in rankings, try applying the header options, as this practice is good for any web development &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mikes-marketing-tools.com/marketing-tips/keyword-densities.html"&gt;Improve Keyword Prominence, Density &amp;amp; Proximity&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Keyword prominence will increase if you have your keyword at the beginning of text part of your webpage. Keyword density refers to the ratio (percentage) of keywords contained within the total text content of the page. Keyword proximity refers to the closeness between two or more keywords. And this is yet another factor which has not much proven records but still exist in SEO practice. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Make Content look rich &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; As many SEO experts say content is the king. Optimized content with keywords included, along with other SEO factors working well the website can rank well in Search Engines &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.webpronews.com/insiderreports/2004/05/10/anchor-text-tips-that-rocket-your-rankings"&gt;Keyword Rich Anchor Text&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Anchor text for both internal links and external links is &lt;em&gt; powerful&lt;/em&gt; element for Search Engine rankings. You can notice websites which doesnâ€™t have the keyword in their web pages rank well which is all because of their anchor text of their inbound links. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Here a good article on &lt;a href="http://www.theinternetdigest.net/archive/link-anchor-text.html"&gt;Link Anchor Text and Search Engine Optimization&lt;/a&gt; to understand the importance of anchor text in Search Engine Optimization &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Make Flash files work for you &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Its better to avoid including flash files into your website. But under compelling circumstances, you can try adding keyword rich text somewhere in your file, since Search Engines like Google can index the text part of flash files &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.seoresource.net/SEO-your-PDFs.htm"&gt;Bring your PDF files on SERPs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; PDF file is a good source for keyword rich content. Most Search Engines can read &amp;amp; index PDF files and a few search engines shows PDF files in SERPs too. Make sure you have a good title and file name for your PDF file &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Have a look &lt;a href="http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35769"&gt;Google guidelines for Webmasters&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Off-Page Optimization &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Why Search Engines give so much of importance for inbound links? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;It is easy for any website owner to optimize their website with good content, navigation, title, etc. But does that mean itâ€™s a good website and people would love to check it out? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Search Engines try to know and evaluate the standard of a website through many factors and the most significant of them is incoming/inbound links. When a website receives inbound links from related &amp;amp; standard websites, it obviously means that it is worth looking at. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Search Engines learn about your website through inbound links and to be precise itâ€™s through anchor text. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; So natural linking with different &amp;amp; targeted keyword rich anchor text works great for any website. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;Here are a few ways to &lt;a href="http://workz.com/content/view_content.html?section_id=517&amp;amp;content_id=6896"&gt;increase your inbound links&lt;/a&gt;/ backlinks. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Search Engines &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Submit your website manually to search engines including regional search engines. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Directories &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; There are many directories available online for free submission. Submit your website into the category that best fits your services, most importantly with good anchor text. Try submitting in your own regional directories to improve your local business. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Forums &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Participate in your industry related forums &amp;amp; discussion boards. Post your comments, thoughts and also provide a link to your website (without spam). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Blogs &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Having your own official blog helps to post your companyâ€™s updates, product release, etc., and also inbound links. There are directories for submitting blogs. Submit your blog with proper keyword tags which helps in your blog listing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Articles &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Write keyword &amp;amp; content rich articles on your own and post in article junctions available online. There are article junctions which accept articles in HTML format, so you can include your links with good anchor text. Write fresh articles on your topic, post and see your traffic increasing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Press Releases &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; You can post Press Releases, which also works like Article junctions &amp;amp; directories; however it should look more like a Press Release and not like an article. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Bookmarks &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; Social book marking - it serves two purposes: It gets you incoming links and it popularizes your website in your community. Make sure you put keyword rich tags for your bookmarks. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Classifieds &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;color:#333333;"&gt; You can see some websites displaying free classifieds.
