Search Engine Optimisation on SiteMaker is much like Search Engine Optimisation with any website. The key is to make sure that your site contents are focused and relevant to the keywords that you wish to rank highly on. This means making a real effort in a number of places to make sure the terms you use are consistent. And don't be too ambitious, you're never going to beat the big guys if your words are too general and competitive.

When you buy yourself a domain name you also, inadvertently, buy into a world of frames, no-frames, IP addresses, and the occassional: 'something's not right'. Normally you don't need to worry about finding these 'little extras' although sometimes they have a habit of finding you. As always, there's a right way and a wrong way of doing things and sometimes the choice you make just ends up going wrong.

Setting up your domain name correctly can be important, as it will improve your search engine listings and it can ensure that your customers don't experience unforseen problems with your site.

The myths about Flash and Search Engines - what's true and what isn't

It's a commonly held belief that Flash content does not work well with search engines. It's true that most search engines can't read the contents of a Flash movie, but it's not true that this necessarily makes a difference to how they index Flash objects, or a Flash site. Like many things in HTML, there are good ways and bad ways of doing everything, and the best ways lead to the best results.
