Hello All,

I have a site at Computer programming languages and Webmaster resource forum

Can anybody tell me the keywords, descriptions, and title used on home page and inside pages are proper or not.

Actually on some pages the keywords are repeated ( I mean many pages have same keywords), So will it affect the SEO ?

How can I increase the Page Rank for my Site ?

Any advanced users in this forum can help me.
Thanks in Advance

Code:

<meta name="description" content="asp, php, programming languages help, application programming, tutorial, javascript programming, web programming, website programming, database programming, html programming, technical discussion forum, technical articles, programming forum" />
	<meta name="keywords" content="basic programming language, learn computer programming, basic programming tutorial, c programming tutorial, programming tutorials, java programming tutorial, vb programming, computer programming, asp programming, computer tutorials, java programming language, basic computer programming, visual basic language, programming forum, programming basics, xml programming, programming languages c, visual basic program, c programming language, articles on computer programming" />

<title>Computer programming languages and Webmaster resource forum</title>

You can see that on your source code (type CTRL + U while viewing your site).

That's fine. It's not something you need to worry since it's a forum.

Do your SEO assignments mate! :wink:

I think you have done a good job on your meta tag. But I suggest at least 2, 2 keyword phrases. One is "web forum", and the other is "development forum". You have done a good job using good relevant keyword phrases. I just think these two may help.. Up to you! Good luck.

Hi there,

You have a good list of keywords on your site. The only change that i can suggest is a good description. Your description is more like a combination of keywords itself. A description should be a brief introduction about the site itself.

Regards

The meta tags look very good to me. I hope that you have targeted high search density KWs. Now, as far as repeating some KWs are concerned, I don't think that this is a problem unless you have done way too many times. You can use long tail KWs and also a combination of two KWs......

Just my thoughts and i certainly aint no expert, but i personally would gamble a bit and intentionally "mis-spell" programming. It is spelt different in other languages. I base this on the evidence of my own (main) site, which is not shown in my profile or signature, but sells darts. I rank in TOP 10 in G for all of these terms

dartboard
dart board
dartsboard

May just help. Depends on how programme, program, is spelt....if you see what i mean.

Cheers.

Do you mean your meta keywords and descriptions? If so, then don't worry too much about them. Meta keywords have no effect on SEO, whether they are done "right" or "wrong". There's a simple proof of this - create a new page with some filler text, and add into the meta keywords an invented word - "gfewrjbeigjreigjeri" or something like that! Make sure Google has zero results for this word. Now wait until it get's indexed, and search Google for this made up word - it won't appear! This means no association has been made between your page and it's meta keywords.
Meta descriptions can be important, but this is because they can appear in search results, and influence click through rates, not because they influence rankings. Still, it has been suggested by some that having several pages with the same description is not a good idea - try to keep them unique. For a forum this might mean dynamical;y generating them, for example, filling them with the first 200 characters in the thread.
PageRank is simply a measure of the number of, and importance of, the links to your site. So to increase PR is simple, get more links, and get higher PR links. Remember though - no incoming link is a bad link! As a word of caution, PR is only very very slightly related to how well a page ranks for a specific query - don't expect to see huge improvements in referrals from Google just because you've gone from PR3 to PR4!
