Domain Name Search Engine Ranking

A good domain name for your photography or art website is a must. If you are a solo artist or solo photographer you can simply just use your name for your website. Search engine ranking is achieved with proper keywording. Try to create keywords that are closely related to the most common words yet at the same time unique in itself. For instance take the word artist. This is a top level keyword in which likely will be somewhat difficult to take first rankings in the search engines. If you add your name and or a descriptive word about the type of art or photos you offer will be much more successful at finding a better search engine placement. Use as unique descriptions as possible for best results. Submit to artist and art directories. This is also important in establishing relevant links to your website that are similiar in topics. Be choosy who you link to and who also links back to you. You dont want to be caught up in a bad neighborhood of useless and potentially harmful links. If you submit to general directories be sure to submit your art site or photography website to the proper category because quite often many directory administrators will not correct this for you or they will simply just delete your site for improper category placement among many other directory submission errors. Be sure to use accurate spelling and avoid keyword stuffing when submitting to these directories. Well established and high ranking directories will not be easy to get placement as some of the directory owners can be quite choosy. Keep your description simple and straight to the point as to who you are and what you have to offer. Use the proper official name of your website if requested rather than loosely strung keywords. It also looks much more professional when using proper titles and accurate descriptions. Be sure to read all the rules, terms and conditions when submitting to a website directory.
