Adwords, Adsense, SEO, Keywords
By Vickie J. Scanlon
If you have just put up a website, you probably all ready have heard words like:
keywords, Adwords, Adsense, SEO. The before mentioned words have one
thing in common–Keywords. How important are keywords? Very Important.
Google Adwords
Adwords, be it through Google, Miva or any pay-per-click
search engines, you need keywords.
With Adwords, you create a three-line ad – 25 word title, with two 35 word lines of ad copy – then you create your
keywords. To get the hits, you have to brainstorm for different keywords, that
are different but relevant to your target audience. Sound easy? It's not. It
takes time, patience, constant tweaking, and hoping that the product you are selling is not already saturated
-- to much competition, makes it a little more difficult for the novice to make a profit.
Google Adsense
Google Adsense is an advertising program created by Google, and which is beginning to be explored
by other search engines, such as Yahoo and MSN – that allows you to put targeted ads on your
website. If someone clicks on the ad, you earn a small amount of money. These ads are keyword
driven and are relevant to your web page or website. Sounds simple? Well, not really. There is more too it than just putting an ad on your website
and expecting someone to click on it. What’s involved? Let’s see – color, position, style, to
name just a few.
SEO
Search engine optimization – this for me has been a time-consuming process – since I am still
learning. SEO is keyword driven – the search engines pull the keywords from your web copy – not,
to my surprise, from the meta keywords tag.
Granted, I still use the meta keywords tag, but maybe in the near future, I will slowly eliminate
the tag from my web pages. The search engines do, however, pull information from Meta Description, Meta Title, and the
content of your web pages. Thus, content does reign supreme. Since content reigns supreme, each page should contain useful content and most importantly, your
most relevant keywords that you want to emphasize. Secondly, it is best to try and base your
keywords around a central theme. I have found that when the keywords diverts away from the main
theme – that sends a red flag to search engines. So, if you want to look at your keywords and
the density of the keywords on your web page or web pages – You can get a quick rundown at:

. It’s a free tool, and very helpful.
To conclude, keywords is one of the main ingredients that leads people to your website, product,
service and/or ad. …AND, keywords based around your quality content will help with your
positioning on your website.
