In the early days of the internet, search engines ranked websites based upon simple keyword density. Sites that contained higher percentages of a given keyword appeared higher on the search engine rankings than sites that had fewer incidences of that word. The problem with this method, however, was that it allowed website builders to stuff their sites with keywords in order to achieve a high ranking while providing low quality content. Internet users were the victims in this scenario since they would have to search through many links before finding one that provided the content they were looking for.

In order to combat this problem, new algorithms were developed that allowed search engines to search websites for content quality rather than just looking for specific words or phrases. This method of searching, known as latent semantic indexing, allows sites with quality content that use keywords in a more natural way to rank higher than sites that stuff articles with keywords but provide poor quality content. In other words, search engines now evaluate articles by considering the quality of the content rather than simply the incidence of keywords, more as a human would.

For the average website owner, this means you should build your site around a particular theme rather than simply trying to achieve a specific keyword density. You should use not only that specific phrase, but also similar phrases arranged in a natural format. Search engines rank your site by comparing it to other sites on similar topics and analyzing the related words in order to determine how helpful the content on a particular website is likely to be. If you use only one keyword or phrase, the search engine will have a more difficult time determining what the topic of your website is and you’ll be less likely to receive a high search ranking. There are obviously a ton of other factors involved when giving their rankings, but you want as many things going in your favor as possible!

Understanding latent semantic indexing allows you to provide content for your site that seems natural to you while at the same time making sure you can be found on the web. It’s still a good idea to determine a keyword for each article on your site. However, rather than trying to work the keyword in wherever possible, you can write in a natural style while still keeping your overall theme in mind.

I hope everyone had a great holiday season! It was a flurry towards the end of the year for us at SEORCHERS, as we conducted our planning for 2010, and continued to fill up the pipeline with potential customers looking forward to 2010.

Around Christmas time I was featured on www.SmallBusinessBranding.com. They compiled a traffic generating ebook, which you can find here:

http://www.smallbusinessbranding.com/pdf/traffic.pdf

It is free, so I highly suggest you take a look at the great tidbits of information offered within that ebook.

Stay tuned tomorrow, as I will be making a post for the first time in a little while.

There will also be a new segment featured here at the I Do Web Marketing blog, that discusses the latest themes available for wordpress, joomla, email templates, etc. I will be highlighting some of the themes that have caught my eye, have SEO functionality, and lead to a great first impression for your visitors. Stay tuned to the Theming Thursday segment for that as well.

Here’s to a successful 2010!
