1. Build your website so Google, Yahoo, and MSN can Index it. Stay away from content management systems that are hard to read. View your Page Source or HTML coding by right clicking on your website and opening a notepad file with the source code.

Does your source code look organized? It should. Will your code validate? See www.w3.org . This is the most important step in achieving search results. Your website must be built right. Use CSS, HTML, and load it down with keyword-rich content. See Directory One’s Website Design page for more information.

2. Content – Keyword-Rich content and organized navigation.
