Having GOOD Title Tags in YOUR Website is a Must!

Title Tags are VERY Important...

The "title tag" in your website HTML is the phrase you choose to name your site. The general rule in framing your title is: 'what's right for people is generally wrong for search engines'. Essentially, you should try to incorporate your major key phrases into the "title tag". Just make a list of them and try to incorporate them in the title. The fact is it really doesn't matter whether your site title is a million miles away from your own name, or the actual name of your business. It's simply a device for gaining the attention of the robots.

A title tag can contain up to twenty words; but more doesn't mean better. Eight to twelve well chosen words is more than sufficient.
For best results, the first (short) phrase of the title tag should be geared towards the human reader, while the remainder can be key words aimed at the robot. Bear in mind that the search engine will display only the first few words of the title tag anyway.

Online Shopping Breaking Records...

Am I surprised with this report?... No! not at all...

Nielsen//NetRatings announced today that the total number of visits to the Holiday eShopping Index grew 20 percent year over year, from 459.5 million to 551.6 million in the week ending December 17th.

The popularity of online holiday shopping has been predicted to increase this year as patrons prefer shopping at home to the hustle and bustle of department stores. In Pricegrabber's 2006 consumer report conducted in October of this year, 92 percent of respondents said they expected to shop and buy more online this year than last year.

The top four online shopping days this year have exceeded 30 million unique users with three of those four days falling within the week ending December 17th. The first day to reach the 30 million threshold was the Wednesday after Thanksgiving, November 29th.

Are You Using Google Web Analytics?

WHAT IS WEB ANALYTICS?
Web analytics is the process of analyzing the behavior of visitors at a web site.The use of
web analytics helps organizations maximize the value of their Internet marketing efforts. By understanding visitor behavior, organizations can tailor their marketing efforts to attract, retain, and grow the value of customers.

WHY ANALYZE WEB SITE TRAFFIC?
There are many reasons why your organization might want to analyze your web site’s traffic. First, you will want to know whether your web site is attracting visitors and whether the investments that you are making in it, both
in time and in money, are
paying off.

Then, you will want to know more about trends on the web site. You need to understand where visitors came from: whether they were referred by a specific search engine, responded to an ad campaign, or used a particular keyword (either pay-per- click or organic). Content developers will want to know which pages and sections are most commonly viewed and how long visitors stay. Your webmaster and IT department will want to see how servers are performing and whether or not visitors are receiving error messages when they access various pages.

Lastly, you should learn as much as possible about individual visitors, including their names, companies, email addresses, telephone numbers, and geographic location so you can leverage this information for targeted content and marketing activities. You will also want to see what each of these individuals did on your web site, such as whether they filled out online forms, made purchases, or if they fall into any other visitor behavior segments that have been defined for your web site.

With Google Web Analytics, you can get the answers to the tough web questions... I highly recommend you look into using this Totally Free Web Analytics Tool.
