This article is
focused on how you should create these KRPs. I am assuming you have a
working knowledge of the different HTML tags like the Title tag, the Meta
Description tag, the Meta Keywords tag, the Heading tags, the Alt Tag etc.
If you don't, just go to

this site
for a good introduction to such HTML tags.

Now, let us
assume that your company sells packaged tours to Australia, and that you are
targeting the keyword "travel to australia". Here's how you create the KRPs:

The Title Tag:

The first and
most important tag to consider is the Title tag. You should always begin the
Title tag with the keyword that you are targeting. Also remember that the
search engines are going to display the Title tag while they are displaying
the results of a search. Hence, you need to make the Title tag attractive to
humans as well.

Here is one
Title tag that I may have used: "Travel to Australia and discover its scenic
beauty". Have a look at the Title tag - it uses the keyword right at the
beginning and also tells people how beautiful a place Australia is.

Of course, all
Titles need not be like the one I used. The Title that you use depends on
the subject matter of your site. However, you should follow all the general
rules that I have outlined here.

Meta Description
Tag:

The Meta
Description tag is used by many search engines to provide a short
description of the page that is listed in the search results. Hence, like
the Title tag, it is important that the Meta Description tag be keyword rich
as well as attractive to humans.

The rules for
the Meta Description are more or less the same as those for the Title tag.
However, the content of this tag will generally be longer than that of the
Title. Here's what I may have used in the Meta Description tag:

"Travel to
Australia - We take care of all the details of your trip so that you can
travel with complete peace of mind."

Note how this
description repeats the keyword and also the benefit that it stresses - it
says that the customer will be able to travel without having to worry about
the intricate details of the trip - you will take care of them.

Meta Keywords
Tag:

The Meta
Keywords tag has become less and less important as far as search engine
optimization is concerned. In fact, you can get top rankings without having
anything in the Meta Keywords tag at all. However, just to be on the safe
side, you would want to include some keywords in the Meta Keywords tag. You
should also include some of the common upper/lower case variations of the
keyword. The rules for the Meta Keywords tag are pretty simple - don't
repeat any keyword in the Meta Keywords tag more than three times and don't
repeat any keyword one after the other. Here's what I may have used in the
Meta Keywords tag:

"Travel to
Australia, tourism, travel to Australia, Down Under, TRAVEL TO AUSTRALIA"

Note how I have
introduced "tourism" and "Down Under" just to separate the different
instances of the keyword.

Body of the
page:

Now we come to
the actual body of the page. Begin by getting hold of a nice (but not too
large) picture which is applicable for the page that you are creating. In
the present case, I might include a picture of the lotus shaped Sydney Opera
House. Place this picture at the top of the page. In the Alt tag for the
picture, just mention your target keyword once, i.e. the Alt tag would be
"Travel to Australia". You can include other words in the Alt tag, but it
should start with the keyword you are targeting.

Once you've put
up the picture, it is time to create a Heading for your page. Use the H1 tag
to do so. Again, in the H1 tag, mention your target keyword once, i.e. like
the Alt tag for the picture, the H1 tag could be "Travel to Australia".
Again, like the Alt tag, you can include other words in the heading, but the
heading should start with the keyword you are targeting.

Now it's time to
create the actual text of the page. The way you create the text of your page
would depend largely on what you want the visitor to do after reading this
page. In some cases, you may simply want the visitor to go to the home page
or another specific page in your site after reading this page. In this case,
you should write the text in such a way that the visitor is attracted to the
page that you are targeting. You would also want to provide links to the
home page or the specific page that you are targeting at strategic places in
the KRP. Or, you may want the visitor to click on the link to an affiliate
program that you are a member of. In this case, you would stress the
benefits that the visitor gets by purchasing the product or service that the
affiliate program is selling. You would also want to provide links to the
affiliate program at strategic places in the page and/or at the end of the
page. Whatever it is that you want your page to do, there are some general
rules to follow:

1) The first
thing to remember is that some search engines don't recognize the Meta
Description tag. These search engines will often simply take the first few
lines of text in the body of your page and display that as the description.
Hence, you must ensure that the first few lines of text in your page are
attractive to human beings.

2) Ensure that
as many sentences as possible in the page contain your target keyword once.
The keyword shouldn't just be placed on an ad hoc basis - the way the
keyword is placed in every sentence should actually make grammatical sense
and the repetition should be such that your human visitors do not feel that
you have deliberately repeated a particular phrase throughout the page. This
is not only important from the point of view of ensuring that your readers
don't get a bad impression of your site, but also from the point of view of
search engine optimization - the search engines may penalize your page for
spamming if they find that you have randomly repeated the keyword throughout
the page. Also, while repeating the keyword in the page, try to repeat the
keyword once near the top of the page and once near the bottom.

3) Make sure
that your paragraphs are not too long - each paragraph should be no more
than 3 or 4 sentences long. This is because people on the web simply don't
have the time or the inclination to read long paragraphs.

4) Try to ensure
that the page contains links to other pages with the keyword being present
in the text under the link. This can often lead to a higher ranking for your
page.

5) If possible,
link to other pages which have the keyword in the file names. This can again
lead to a higher ranking for your page.

6) There is no
hard and fast rule regarding the total number of words that should be
present in the KRPs. As a rule of thumb, try to ensure that there are
between 500-600 words. However, if the number of words falls a bit short of
or exceeds this limit, don't worry too much.

Once you have
created the page, ensure that the name of the file in which it is saved
contains the keyword and that the individual words of the keyword are
separated by hyphens. In this case, the name of the file would be travel-to-australia.html.
This will get you a higher ranking in the few search engines which give a
lot of emphasis on the keyword being present in the file name.

That's it! When
you want to target another keyword, simply create another KRP for it using
the procedure outlined above.

After you have
created the KRPs, you cannot simply upload them to your site and submit them
to the search engines. This is because the search engines take a rather dim
view of pages which only contain outgoing links to other pages but do not
contain any incoming links from other pages. The search engines may penalize
sites which have such pages.

What you need to
do is to directly or indirectly link the KRPs with your home page. If you
are going to create many KRPs for your site, it will be impractical to link
the home page directly with all the KRPs as this will needlessly clutter
your home page. Hence, what you should do is to create a separate page in
your site called a Sitemap page (name it something like sitemap.html). Add
links to all the KRPs from the Sitemap page. The text that you use to link
to a particular KRP should be the same as the keyword that the KRP is being
optimized for. Hence, the link to the travel-to-australia.html file should
say "Travel to Australia".

Now, some search
engines refuse to spider pages which only contain links to other pages and
nothing else. Hence, if the Sitemap page only contains links to the KRPs but
contains no other content, the search engines may ignore this page. Hence,
what you can do is to add a short description of the content of each of the
KRPs after you have added a link to that KRP in the Sitemap page. This
ensures that the search engines will not ignore this page.

After doing all
this, simply link the home page of your site with the Sitemap page using a
text link. Then, submit your home page, the Sitemap page and each of the
KRPs to the search engines. When you are submitting these pages, to be on
the safe side, make sure that you submit no more than 1 page per day to any
search engine - otherwise, you run the risk of some search engines ignoring
some of the pages you have submitted. You can submit your site by going to
the individual "Add URL" pages of each engine. Or, in order to save time,
you can use our

free submission tool
which helps you submit your site manually to the search engines, without
having to go to the individual "Add URL" pages of each engine.

Follow all the
rules that I have outlined in this article and you can soon see your search
engine blues disappear for ever!
