How search engine’s algorithm works
Page factor
Off the page factor
Location
Keywords that appear, in the title,
or near the top of the page, are
deemed more relevant
Link analysis
By analyzing how the page links to
other pages in the Web, the search
engine determines:
• what a page is about
• if that page is deemed to be
"important“
Frequency
Keywords with a higher frequency
in the page are deemed more
relevant
Clickthrough measurement
The search engine rewards the most
clicked pages with higher position

What you cannot do
1. There are no shortcuts to a better rank on search engines
2. If your pages are not relevant to the users needs, they cannot
appear at the top of the search result

The dark side of SEO
Black hat: SEO techniques that try to manipulate search engine
results.
Black hat SEO attempts to improve rankings in ways that are
disapproved by the search engines, or involve deception. Search
engines may penalize sites they discover using black hat methods,
either by reducing their rankings or eliminating their listings from their
databases altogether.
Black hats tend to produce results in the short-term.
