Search Engine Optimization for eBay Stores

[mandy]

The ranking of a web page for a keyword depends on three things:

    * The position and frequency of the keyword on the web page: When producing results for a search term, search engines will rank your pages based on the keywords they contain and their prominence on the page.
    * The content of the page's HTML tags: The search engine also looks at the content of the title and meta tags of the page's HTML code. Humans don't read "meta tags" - they are included on a web page to help search engines understand what the page is about, so having good meta tags that describe your website pages is important. An article from Search Engine Watch explains how to use meta tags if you want to dig into this topic in more depth (http://searchenginewatch.com/showPage.html?page=2167931).
    * The links going to that web page: Search engines consider an inbound link as a vote of popularity. Google, for example, gives each web page a score of 1 to 10 (called a PageRank) depending on the number and origin of inbound links. For a given search, the page with the higher PageRank will appear higher in the list of search results. Here's how Google explains its PageRank technology (http://www.google.com/corporate/tech.html).
