SEO Factors That Have The Most Effect On Search Engine Rankings

Posted by Web | SEO, Website | Saturday 26 July 2008 8:21 pm

I want to share with you today one of the most important aspects that effect search engine rankings, which are the FACTORS, the search engine algorithms take into consideration when analyzing websites. Each search engine algorithm is different; but in many important aspects all the algorithms are primarily the same. One area where the algorithms are the same is using factors to determine what the search engines look at related to web page rankings.

In addition, another area that search engines are the same is the fact that a weight is assigned to each factor. The weight is basically the importance placed on a factor. The more weight that is placed on a factor, the more it can and usually will affect the rankings of web pages.

Even though each search engine uses factors in its algorithm, the specific factors and the weight placed on the factors are different for each search engine along with the fact that the factors and the weight place on these factors can change at any point in time.

In reality, algorithms are computer programs that can be changed and/or altered very easily and quickly by search engines. It is in the search engines best interest to not let anyone figure out their algorithms. Therefore, the algorithms are constantly modified for this very reason.

However, in my experience with search engine optimization and studying search engine algorithms there are some factors that over an extended period of time will greatly enhance a web page’s search engine ranking.
