Greetings Lena Chen:
First, you need to make sure your name is in the text on the page.
It's in the URL but you need to refer to it again in your page text in
both URL and name form.
Also, I viewed your page code and your code begins with:
<html>
<head>
<title>index</title>
and then proceeds to the page text code. You need to have something
similar to this after the head:
<head>
<meta name="keywords" content="Lena
Chen,LenaChen.com,music,history,Val Emmich,[and other keywords for
what is on your page]">
<title>Lena Chen web page for music lovers [or whatever you want to
title the page]</title>
</head>
By having your name in the text, keywords and page title, you will
enable search engine spiders to access those terms, making it easier
for people to find you by searching "Lena Chen".
Your source code specified Yahoo PageBuilder as the program you used
to create the page. I visited PageBuilder and found the way to add
the keywords and title to your web site while in the edit mode of
their program:
HOW TO ADD PAGE TITLE AND KEYWORDS AT YAHOO PAGEBUILDER
Open your site for editing. Under the Format heading along the top of
the program, click on Page Properties. A box will pop up and you will
be able to enter text for Title, Keywords and Author (Lena Chen).
When entering keyowrds, separate them by commas.
After you have done this, Save your changes and then visit your actual
page on the web (outside of PageBuilder) and view the source code to
see what you have entered.
HOW TO VIEW SOURCE CODE
The way to see source code of a web site is to go to your Internet web
page and choose View along the top of the browser, then choose Source
and you will see a box pop-up with the source code.
If you are somehow not able to view the source code, post here with a
clarification request for me to go check it after you have added the
keywords and title and saved, and I'll be happy to check it for you.
Also, I caution you not to put your home address, phone number or your
main email address on your web site. Use an alternate email address
on your site (like a free Yahoo or Hotmail account) to keep spammers
from filling your main ISP email box with tons of spam. The spammers
have spiders, too, which crawl the web for email addresses and then
slam email boxes with a host of unwanted offers.
Should you need clarification of any of my instructions, please ask
and I will be happy to respond.
SEARCH STRATEGY:
[I visited your site and examined the source code and then visited
Geocities PageBuilder to ascertain the way to add keywords and title
in that program.] |
