Here is a list of 10 places to replicate your ‘carefully researched’ SEO keyword phrases in an attempt to improve your website’s search engine effectiveness:

1. Page Title
2. Page Content
3. Text headings (e.g. HTML H1, H2 etc)
4. Image Alt tags
5. Meta tags (description and keywords)
6. Page URL (webpage address)
7. Inbound text links
8. Links contained on the page
9. Domain Name
10. Anywhere else you can think of…

Remember to keep your content etc human friendly – it still needs to make for interesting reading for your website users.

Also, be careful not to go overboard with the keyword density. Too little and your efforts are not as effective as it should be, too much and Google thinks you might be trying to spam them. 5% is normally about right. You can check your keyword density on the following online SEO tool:

Keyword densities of less than 2% are considered low.
Keyword densities between 2% and 20% are considered ideal.
Keyword densities over 20% risk being considered as spam by search engines.

Another really useful SEO tool that we would recommend is the National B2B Centre website: http://www.nb2bc.co.uk/seo/ – registration may be required.
