"Beginners Luck" a guide to Web Page/Site Design

Ever wonder why the cheapest looking, mostly all text, boring web sites get
all the top rankings? Me Too! So I found out. As it turns out most search
engines have been fooled once or twice by idiots (or genius's depending on
what side of the fence your on) who have placed code in their sites to fool
rankers into giving their site more weight. So they have put measures in
place to stop these people, and in return made "Ranking" more of a challenge
than ever.
What is this Magic code that places sites at the top?
PLANNING!
Yes, Planning is the best way to get your site noticed and ranked.

Tips for planning your website for "Rankings"

1. Plan your site around a specific set of keywords or phrases.
if your site is about basketball, then your keywords should include
Basketball
First, then Basketball in a phrase. (E.G. Basketball for short people)
Basketball will get the general inquirers and Basketball for short
people will
dominate the specific area that your site really pertains to in the
first place.

2. Plan every area in your site to begin with your keywords. Pretty simple,
but
somewhat hard to swallow for the ego. Sites with too much text don't
look as
fancy as sites with images and animations. Text and keyword placement is
crucial,
only use your keywords in the first part of your particular area, and
then do not
repeat them.

3. Submit often, this is the most boring part of a webmaster's life. Having
your
150 dollar software submit your sites for you is not as effective as
doing it
yourself to each engine or database.
For some reason some of the data is skewed or something, I am not sure
why.
At least once a month, and some even suggest once a week, your site must
be
submitted to each engine.

This is the basic ritual that will get your site noticed, without spending a
dime. If you really want to get some hits, try renting a billboard and
plaster a picture of a sports figure on it and your web site url. I have
been told this works really well, although costing much U.S. currency.
