Planning your content
It should be clear by now that the most important factor in getting
good results on search engines is having a great deal of relevant
textual content on your website. Following are a few more pointers
to help:
Depth of your site
When planning the structure of your site, you will certainly want
to organize it into folders and subfolders in order to make is easy
to manage. Consider that different spiders have different limits
as to how deep they will go into a site. A good rule of thumb is
no more than 2 or 3 levels deep.
Interconnecting Pages
Regardless of how your site is organized, your pages shoould link
to one another as much as possible. Besides just menu links, put
links to connect your pages in your paragraph text. Wherever your
content references a subject that is covered on another page, be
sure to link to that page. More links connecting your pages to one
another can really help your ranking.
Small Sites
Some sites are just small. If this is the case with your site,
you are at a huge disadvantage. Try to find a way to beef up your
site as much as possible with more pages. It will go a long way.
