It looks like nobody wants to give away trade secrets. :) -Mikey

Can you be a little more specific?

That's like asking a MLB player to share
techniques on how to be a .300 hitter. -MaxReferrals

In general, I think that more Google products you use the more you get an idea of what Google is doing for you. I use Google webmaster tools to submit sites and sitemaps and of course get an idea of what is being indexed and which pages are being found on searches as well as their positioning. Google analytics gives me an idea of what pages are being visited and so on.

As to optimising, the same general rules apply with regards to backlinks, content, headers etc. Google just has better methods of tracking what is working. -nesh thompson

Ok, I am not a search engine specialist but these are some pointers:

- Identify the keywords/phrases you would like to be found on
- Make sure your website copy contains these terms (do not overdo this!)
- Create an intuitive site structure that uses text-links rather than images or flash for the navigation
- Get backlinks to your optimized pages containing your preferred keywords
- Read Google's Search Engine Optimization Starter Guide: http://www.google.com/webmasters/doc...rter-guide.pdf
