••••••>Google says "Minimize Your Usage of Stop Words

If you are looking for super Local search SEO tips and better methods for improving your SEO engine optimization, you will want to make sure that you web page content uses a minimum amount of stop words. What are stop words? Stop words are words that are so widely used that a search engine will literally ignore them when scanning through a web page. For example, a web crawler or search spider will ignore text like the words "with," "the," "of," "an," and "a." Since search spiders do not read the latter words, you will want to try to keep them out of your keyword phrases as well as any titles, URLs, ALT tags and Meta Tags if it is at all possible to do so. Doing so will ensure that your keyword density does not get inadvertently watered down.

In contrast, this is not a cue for you to compromise the quality of any content you choose to offer. When creating website content, you will want your site to offer clear, concise, useful material and the material must be readable as well as engaging. Don’t drive yourself crazy trying to minimize the amount of stop words that you use; when it comes to great SEO tips to get #1 on Google, on Yahoo, on AOL, CitySearch and on other local seo search sites, you simply need to make sure that you refrain from using stop words in strategic areas on your website. You must pay particular attention to stop word use when you are researching the pertinent keywords that you will be relying on to draw web traffic; many people do not use a lot of stop words when conducting search engine queries. Instead, a web user utilizes small phrases to pull up the material they are searching for; these small phrases hold great power if you choose them wisely.

How Do You Check Google Ranking? - Now that Google is so responsive to your own search history, how can you get a good idea of what your Google ranking really is for your web pages? Whenever I check my ranking for specific keywords on Google, my web pages appear on the front page, or suspiciously high. My way around this is to check Google ranking via other computer Internet links, i.e., whenever I'm working in a library I will use a library computer to check. I check Google ranking before logging into my Gmail or other Google-related accounts. Does anybody else have any other tips for discovering your Google ranking? Nowadays, I check Bing.com for my webpage ranking as it gives a much less favourable (and so, I guess, "truer") ranking for my webpages than Google does...
