Facts About Title Keyword Density

July 6th, 2007

If you’ve done much SEO work for your website, I’m sure you’ve realized just how important it is to include the right text in the < title > tag of each page.

As discussed in this article, it is a good idea to build each of your pages around its own primary keyphrase, and somehow incorporate that keyphrase into your < title > tag. The question is, of course, what’s the best way to integrate it? The problem is that each search engine has its own unique answer.

MSN (aka Live.com) is generally thought to reward very high keyword density, and often grants top-five rankings to pages with 100% density in the title (that is, pages where the primary keyphrase is the only thing in the title bar).

Google, on the other hand, seems to make a point of devaluing pages on keywords that exactly match their < title > tag. This measure was most likely introduced as a way to fight search engine spammers who over-optimize for a single phrase, by excessively placing it in their content, headings, and title.

Overall, you need to make an informed decision about which optimization route you want to take for each of your sites. As mentioned in the algorithm summaries, MSN is a good choice for driving short-term traffic and revenue, while Google has a lot more potential for long-term sustainable content websites.

If you want to optimize for Google, my advice would be to go for title keyword density of around 50%, and no greater than 75%. For example, if your primary keyphrase is three words long, you many wish to add another three-word phrase to your title, consisting of secondary keywords.

Filter Adsense Ads for Higher CTR

July 5th, 2007

Have you notice that my blog seldom display blog related ads and the ads are more revelant to the content than yours? Here I share my tip to filter Google Adsense ads for higher click thru rate(CTR).

Google Adsense is contextual ads, it select advertisements based on your website content. Sound cool, but often the selected ads is not related to your content. Well, that’s the limitation of robots. *shrug*

We(I) believe that highly relevant ads will helps to increase CTR(click thru rate), which also means increase your earning.

The common problem for blog site is that Google Adsense always display blog related ads, regardless the content of your blog(e.g.: display blog hosting ads in a food blog).

Google already know the problem, it provides a Competitive Ad Filter (Ads Settings -> Competitive Ad Filter) in Google Adsense.

Google combines advanced technology with editorial staff to ensure the highest quality standards in our ad program, but we recognize that you may not want certain ads, such as your competitors’ ads, to show on your website. Ads that link to sites on your filter list won’t appear on your content pages.

Though the ads are not competitors to us(bloggers), but we can make use of the ads filter to get higher relevant ads, by filter out those blog related ads. ;)

Google has prepared a guide on Competitive Ad Filter for you.

Bonus 1
Thought Google says filtering ads may reduce your earning, don’t be afraid! Google has alot advertisers! Filtering unrelated ads will only bring you more related ads.

Well, when you see no ads displayed, that means you gone too far and it’s time to reduce your filter list. :P

Bonus 2
When I see an unrelated ad always displayed in my blog, I will filter it out to save the space for other ads.

Proof
My CTR increased by triple after filtered those Stupid blog ads.

New Google Adsense Ads Format - Horizontal Link Units
