I. On-Page SEO

On-Page SEO is the process of placing your selected keywords in the right places on your web pages. On-page SEO involves changing page titles, headings, content, and URLs to improve search engine rankings.

A. META Data

To learn more about what meta-data is and why it is important, take a look at this article.

Title : FoxieWire / Published News
Description : News site dedicated to everything Mozilla, Your Source for Daily Mozilla News
Meta Keywords : mozilla, firefox, spreadfirefox, mozilla news, mozilla firefox news, firefox add-ons, thunderbird, thunderbird news, mozilla news and information, mozilla extensions, mozilla developer, mozilla store, breaking news, mozilla download, mozilla firefox download, mozilla addons , world & business, firefox affiliate sites, firefox extensions, mozilla forefox add-ons, firefox themes, mozilla newsgroups, mozilla newsreader, firefox news feed.

High Number Of Meta Keywords

There are a high number of keywords in the meta-data of the web page.
We believe that though the search engines don't weigh keywords as heavily as they used to, they're still important to get right. By using a high number of keywords, it is possible that you are diluting the effect of your most important keywords. We would suggest keeping the keywords to 10 or less. Currently, this site has 24 keywords in the meta-data.

B. Heading Summary

Similar to how newspapers and magazines use headings and sub-headings to help readers, websites can use special tags in their HTML. These tags not only help human readers read the content, they also help search engine spiders better understand the content on a page and what is most important. It is generally a good idea to use heading tags to help signal to the search engines, what the web page is about.

No headings were found on the web page

C. Image Summary

Images are a great way to enhance a website from a user's perspective. However, it is important to note that search engine crawlers cannot really "see" images. So, if you have lots of images that contain textual content within the image itself, this content will not be seen by the crawlers.

HTML helps address this issue by providing a way to specify the textual content for an image using the "alt" attribute. The alt attribute allows web pages to assign specific text as the "alternative" content for images for those that cannot view the images themselves. This can be search engine crawlers or text-only web browsers.

Too Many Images Found

Having many images on the web page means the user has to wait longer to view your page. This web page has 37 images.

It's usually better to have fewer or smaller images. Sometimes simply resizing your images will make them smaller in size, and your web page will load faster.

Total images found: 37.  1 image doesn't have alt text. See details.

E. Readability Level: Primary / Elementary School

This score measures the approximate level of education necessary to read and understand the web page content. In most cases, the content should be made to be simple so that a majority of the target audience can understand it.

II. Off-Page SEO

Off-Page SEO includes all the things you do to promote your web site outside the design of the web site itself. Getting more inbound links to your site, registering with directories relevant to your industry, and getting more pages into the search engine indices are all parts of Off-Page SEO.

Most experts agree that you should register your domain for a long time, because search engines factor domain "stability" when looking at your pages.

B. Google PageRank: 7

“Google PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic nature of the web by using its vast link structure as an indicator of an individual page's value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But, Google looks at more than the sheer volume of votes, or links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that casts the vote. Votes cast by pages that are themselves important weigh more heavily and help to make other pages important.” - From Google

Having links to your company website from authoratative resources on the Internet helps you rank higher in search engines since these links are an indication that your website is trustworthy and contains good content.

III. Blogosphere

Blogging makes sense from a marketing perspective. You'll be leveraging the shift from outbound to inbound marketing and interacting with your customers in new ways. A blog lets you meet your customers more directly than sending out brochures or an email campaign.
