Hey Greg, are there any SEO techniques I can place on my page or is there anything else I can do to get my page to show up on the 1st page in google search instead of the 2nd page? Would adding meta tags help? Please advise! Thanks! --[[User:Followfocus|Followfocus]]

:We're learning the ins and outs of SEO just like the rest of the world, with some success at times, and at other times complete confusion. I do have some tips that I am 90% sure will help you; I just can't quantify how much they will help you.
:First, convert more of the words in your Directory listing to wikilinks. For example, instead of "Texas", make it "<nowiki>[[Directory:Texas|Texas]]</nowiki>". I would convert perhaps 10 words to wikilinks, and better yet, if they are words that you want to be sensitized to engine searches, make sure you wikilink to those words -- and create a MyWikiBiz article for any that aren't yet in existence. For example, we need to have some Main Space pages about [[landscape]] and [[architecture]]. You could write those and benefit MyWikiBiz, but by wikilinking the words in your own Directory, you'd benefit, too.
:Second, create more semantic attributes in your Directory. See the bottom of your page? You have 8 attributes identified. Go for 20, and it will probably help. A listing of available Attributes is [http://www.mywikibiz.com/index.php?title=Special:Attributes&limit=500&offset=0 found here]. You might benefit from the following Attributes: NAICS_Code1, Zip, Keyword (which you can do many iterations), and maybe Client_Description.
:Best of luck with these, and be sure to give it time. It can take two weeks for Google and Yahoo and MSN to crawl and recognize these improvements. -- [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 11:00, 8 May 2008 (PDT)
