Inadequate keywords: Generally the search engine search results are based on the keywords. It is better to provide required keywords which suits for your marketing and your web site. Remember that increasing the keyword density does not guarantee good ranking for your website. Providing the keywords which describe your product and your service, is more appreciable.

It is better to use plural form rather than singular form for the keywords. Use the appropriate keywords that best suits for your product. Hence, with inadequate keywords the search engine may not result the relevant data. Providing the keywords make your website to be listed in the search engine result pages.

Site bloating: It is evident that to load a web page having more data it takes more time. If a page has more graphics it will take more time to load and hence it is recommended not to keep more graphics unless you need them. To avoid precious visitors of your site you have to lessen the graphics on your marketing, which takes much time to load in your webpage.

Few links: If your site has too few links, then your site may not be listed in the search engine result pages. In order to make your website to be listed in the search engine result pages you have to maintain good links with other web sites. You have to improve link popularity of your website.

It is always better to remember that all search engines are not same. That is all search engines does not use similar algorithms. The algorithm used in Google search engine is different from the algorithm used in msn and other search engines. If you have many clicks from msn search engine, then it is better to optimize your website according to msn so that you will be able to market effectively.

Poor Titles: Providing a good title is important for a website. You have to brand your website and product name and it must describe your business. Your website name must be selected in such a way that your website has to be listed in the top 10 search engine results.
