I need help MDB Nerds!

Post by _GoodK »

I need your help. Here is my question:

I want the website, www.mormongulag.com, to show up on Google and Yahoo searches for key words "Mormon gulag" and "utah boys ranch" and "west ridge academy". Only on Google can you search Mormon gulag and it will show up. Yahoo comes up with nothing, and I want the other key words to bring up the the website.

I was told to add this to my site:

<head>
    <title>Mormon Gulag</title>
    <meta name="description" content="West Ridge Academy fka Utah Boys Ranch is an abusive Mormon Gulag that is currently operating in West Jordan Utah. ">
    <meta name="keywords" content="West Ridge Academy, Utah Boys Ranch, Mormon Gulag, American Gulag, Teem Gulag, Abusive treatment programs">
    <meta name="copyright" content="GoodK 2008">
</head>



but I'm using a Mac and publishing with iWeb so I don't have any html and don't really know where to put it. (TWSS)


Thanks.

When you're in iWeb, go to Insert---HTML snippet---Then you should be able to copy/paste your code.

I don't have that option under insert.

Weird. Maybe I need to upgrade.

It's my understanding that it takes Yahoo a lot longer to index a site than Google. Perhaps that's the problem.

If not, then I think you need to drop the spaces after the commas within your "keywords" metatag. If you have spaces there, then it might not show up unless someone types in the phrase with a space after it, just like in your tag.

Yeah, that's the way mine is set up in iWeb '08.

Do you already have iWork 08? If not, you may want to consider purchasing that for the $90. It gives you an upgrade to iLife and iWeb, and you get the business applications as well.

Shades, where do I put the code? Just anywhere on my web page? I asked this question here:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index ... 507AAKiSOd

People keep telling me to put the code in the headers.

Liz,

I'm using '07. I bought my macbook last year this time, so it's all the old software. I'll have to bite the $90.00 bullet.

Examine the HTML code of your page. Near the top you'll see a <head> tag, followed sometime later by a </head> tag. These will be BEFORE the <body> and </body> tags.

Put the <meta name="keywords" content="Utah Boys Ranch,Mormon Gulag,West Ridge Academy"> tag somewhere in between the <head> and </head> tags, preferably right after your <title> and </title> tags.

There is no html code that I can see. iWeb is like powerpoint, kinda, you just drag text and images.

In that case, there's gotta be some sort of tab, button, menu option, or whatever that says "View Code" or "View HTML."

Select that, then type in that Meta tag that I described.
