Hyper Text Markup Language was developed
by the originators of the world wide web.
Although it continues to be revised and expanded as the technologies evolve, it
is still the foundation on which all web pages have been built.
Hyper Text (or beyond simple words) allows visitors to read common language words
on their display screen, that also activate links to other areas on a page, other websites,
or other pages on the same website. There are
more than 100 hyper-text links on this page and hundreds more on the rest of
the pages of our website.
A major advantage of XHTML over HTML is in it's compatibility with most browser
types and devices (including cell phones and similar hand held technologies). Since
more people will be accessing the world wide web using portable devices, writing
your business website in XHTML will become far
more important.
Search engines have become far more sophisticated than the original pure database
systems of the early days. They now consider semantics and information relevance to
be more important than simply counting the number of times a certain (key) word appears
on a page. Each web page is filtered through their algorithm to determine
it's real information content. Some search engine algorithms can contain millions
of steps to check for, before ranking each page. (The word is derived from the
name of the Persian mathematician Al-Khwarizmi.)
Search Engine Algorithm ?
Major Search Engines are constantly trying to improve their search results
services. They do this, by making changes to the way their algorithm filters each
web page. Attempting to approach human reasoning will (eventually) allow search
engines to anticipate what information their users are actually searching for!
Until then, web content developers will need to anticipate which
key-phrases (important words and phrase information) are
most likely to be used by potential visitors and incorporate them into
specific web pages and
specific page titles.
Web pages are actually called resources or information resources in the cyber
world. The W3C developed a Uniform way to describe the location
of each page published on the web. To locate and retrieve a specific web page,
knowing it's exact address is pretty important! The complete URL for this page is:
Search engines need a method for retrieving web-pages before they can analyze
and rank them. Spiders (aka. robots) are
actually computer programs that each search engine uses to scan the web for web pages.
Search engines have spiders?
Search engine spiders are required to follow the rules too. Every website
should have a robots.txt file, which tells the spiders what information
to take, which files and folders to ignore and which search engines are not
permitted to take files from the site.
Creating a space for a web page in a search engine's database is called indexing.
However, once indexed, a search engine can delete all records for a website, if
they determine that
the content is simply spam or
so poorly written that it can't be accurately
given a page ranking. Once a search engine de-indexes your website, getting
thatdomain name re-indexed can be difficult,
expensive and time consuming.
Search Engine Indexing
Who has the biggest and/or best index? The term "best," is a
matter of personal
preference. Checking the top search results pages from
several search engines, will
usually give you better (relevant) information resources than simply going through
many pages of the same search engine's results. Major search engines each have
Billions of website pages indexed.
A website is simply a collection of
web pages in
a server folder, at a common ip address.
Every computer or web server connected to the Internet has a unique
address referred to as it's Internet Protocol address. An IP
address is four numbers separated by dots, for example: 65.46.56.689
An ip address is not the same as your website's
Domain Name, although they each
identify your website location.
One of the most common and costly design mistakes made by many small
business website owners, is their (over or mis-) use of graphics. People love
pictures. A great deal of
"emotional" response can be generated by colors and appropriate pictures.
Unfortunately, computer programs (search engines) are cold, emotionless creatures
who are driven by programming logic alone. They can't see
the beautiful pictures! Search engine spiders can only
read text information. It's easy to fill a web page
with pictures and still have a blank web page! Search engines only
"see," the "
alt text " (
Choose your words and terms, well).
The Internet
was conceived and designed to be a fail-proof communications system for the
U.S. military
(in 1962). The
World Wide Web began much later (1990). (see
history of the WWW) Although the word
"Internet" has come to mean Free Information to most people,
it is still being developed. "
The World Wide Web (known as "WWW", "Web" or "W3C")
is the universe of network-accessible information, the embodiment of human knowledge.
Cascading Style Sheets allow website designers/owners to change the
look of their site by editing only one page. Changing the font colors or sizes
periodically, keeps your website fresh. Multiple cascading style sheets aid in
enhancing user accessibility.
A database is simply organized digital information.
Website databases can
store your company's public information. Everything from
inventory reports for "in stock" information for your customers, to lists
of your suppliers, addresses and phone numbers can be stored in your website databases.
Search engine databases are huge collections of individual
web pages. They are used to store and (once filtered) rank your web pages!
Your database choice will be determined by the type of small
business you operate, the type of data you need to share with your customers and
your budget. Custom built databases can be very costly.
