Website Content and Backlinking First and Foremost, you must have content on your website. Content needs to be added on a regular basis. How to add content: Products http://www.embroidered-uniforms-corporate-apparel.com/medical-scrubs-medicaluniforms-c-18.html Services Articles http://www.embroidered-uniforms-corporate-apparel.com/articles_new.php Helpful hints Blog posts http://www.embroidered-uniforms-corporate-apparel.com/blog/ I use all the above to add content to the website. What can content generate: Top results on search engines AN EXAMPLE: Google search for uniform programs http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=uniform+programs Looking for www.embroidered-uniforms-corporate-apparel.com & www.imageuniforms.com Uniform programs is in a directory tree and includes other longer keyword terms such as Uniform Programs | Corporate Uniform Programs | Food Service Uniform Programs | Hospital Uniform Programs | Hospitality Uniform Programs | Housekeeping Uniform Programs | Industrial Uniform Programs | Telecommunications Uniform Programs | Transportation Uniform Programs So we can keep going with this concept to add more and more articles linked together to create front page rankings in Google.
