Don’t stress though because if you follow a few simple steps and apply an ‘end-user logic’ when identifying your keywords, then you are sure to improve your qualified traffic and increase your websites conversions. A lot of these principles of keyword research can also be utilised in your pay per click advertising campaigns so take some time to look through your website and ask yourself, “what would I type into the search engine if I was trying to find my product or service?”

The importance of the page linking to you, the nature of the page's content, the number of links on that page, and the words that are actually linked (usually displayed with an underline) all affect how important that link is for your ranking on a given search.
