A 404 error page is something you should avoid having on your website if you are an entrepreneur looking to increase website traffic. They could be a step back in search engine optimization in Dubai efforts and are more likely than not to prevent your site from getting indexed.

In plain speak a 404 DNS error or a File Not Found error is what the server spits out when someone types in a URL that does not exist on your website or is under construction and is hence unavailable. A page or two that give out such errors on your website can be tolerable for most users. Search engines on the other hand, don’t like them.

Known to affect the visibility of a particular website in SERP’s, a File Not Found error can be turned to your website’s advantage with customized pages that cloak the error though.

A stand-by page called a 404.htm page is an excellent way to get past the 404 error and can benefit your SEO efforts enormously. Take a look at the File Not Found error pages put up on Smashing Magazine.

These stand-by pages not only provide the user to your website something to chuckle/think/learn about, but also encourage the search engine to include the page as relevant to the website and hence index-worthy.

Absolutely do not tell your Dubai web design professionals to create a 404 error page that is an exact copy of your homepage- its not going to win your website any popularity points. Encourage user-friendliness and accessibility- after all that’s the main aim of any website.

Plagiarism has maintained a consistently malign presence in not only traditional media but electronic as well. Optimized intellectual freedom while being the one of the driving factors of the Internet’s popularity came attached with an exasperating problem known as web scraping. Till date many Dubai web development professionals, like developers and businesses elsewhere grapple with this problem.

Scraper sites are usually the torchbearers of plagiarism. Cut-copy-paste is the name of the game for them with content lifted directly at times from similar sites. One explanation for scraper sites employing such methods is because it is convenient for them to rank high in search engine results making for convenient SEO.

There is technology available that spews out keywords in multitude and variety. Incorporating them into these sites is child’s play for such abusers of the system. How much ever I would prefer to say otherwise, there are businesses and web marketing firms that hire questionable writers to web scrape for an amount as less $1 for 500 words.

Advertising programs like Google AdSense have further increased the proliferation of scraper sites, so much that a separate term- MFA or Made For AdSense- has been coined to describe them.

A surfer visiting a website can click on an advertisement and by doing so enable the site owner to make a profit from Google as the latter is offering the business a platform to feature the advertisement. MFA sites have exploited this system by existing for the sole purpose of getting people to click on the adverts the sites display.

An important aspect of a web page’s content is the image and graphics that are interspersed with the text. Anchor text and visible hyperlinks usually point out a website visitor to other pages on the same website or on other websites.

Optimizing the images on a web page for effective search engine optimization in Dubai does have certain benefits. For instance, a good web design company usually utilizes the same image in multiple areas to save up on image loading time and allowing the website to open up quicker. A site visitor is not left waiting for the graphics to load up on the page.

GIF generated graphics and JPEG saved photographs are best for image optimization. Using image optimization tools also help a professional in web development in Dubai and website design experts utilize images better on websites.

When coded with JavaScript, such graphics and photographs can load in the background while the web page is being loaded. Another trick Dubai web development experts use is implementing using smaller versions of the image or thumbnails. These thumbnails are linked to the actual size of the image or photograph.

Using thumbnails fill the need to use an image without taxing the server or the site user. It doesn’t hurt to tag pictures with generic sounding titles and keywords either as it helps search engines pick these pictures faster in an image search.

At Cosmos Creatives Dubai, we have some of the best Dubai web design experts and web developers working on websites to make them search engine friendly and user friendly.

They are important ‘creatures’ in the virtual world, the web spiders; more so in the search engine optimization and search engine marketing industry. What these crawlers do is recognize web pages existing in their database using a particular system, and include them in a web search.

Obtaining new pages, updating existing ones, and deleting obsolete pages are some of the functions they perform. If there has been no linking to the page, then another way to bring a web page to the notice of the crawlers is by sending the site URL to search engine companies and requesting them to include the new page into their search.

The next step is indexing, where the pages are sent to another computer program, where links, keywords, etc. play a major role in identifying the relevancy and the relation of a web page to the search. These are then featured in SERPs.

Some pages, however, do not come up in search engine result pages. They form that part of the web known as the ‘Invisible Web’ or ‘Deep Web’. In a study, the University of California, Berkeley, estimated that the ‘Deep Web’ contained approximately 91,000 terabytes of data and 550 billion individual documents.

One reason this happens is due to pages having random content or it could be irrelevant and badly conceptualized. Another reason is the presence of technical barriers where spiders cannot perform by themselves. For instance, pages where access is granted only by typing manually, member’s only sites, etc.

At Cosmos Creatives Dubai, our SEO team submits your website using accurate techniques that make it easy for algorithmic crawlers [spiders] to notice and provide links to and ultimately result in being picked up by a search engine quickly.

The very nature of the internet deems it a powerful psychological and visual medium. Website design elements like graphics, text and overall aesthetic appeal have to be balanced in a proper manner when creating a website.

The right blend of emphasized and under-played areas has to be applied during a graphic design in Dubai process. The site visitor should know which areas on a web page require more attention with a mere glance.

Last year, Google had a complete ‘black out’, i.e. instead of the standard white background and black text, it displayed a reversal of the two colors. The idea behind this was a campaign to raise awareness about an energy conservation event that was held in San Francisco. The campaign was a success even though the most basic colors were used.

At Cosmos Creatives Dubai, we understand the co-relation between colors and a brand. Our team of professional website design experts creates a website using the right mix of colors. A brand promoted by us is a brand that is high in visual impact without losing out on its substance.

HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. Used as a tool for designing websites, it can also be referred to as the skeletal system of a website. Directions on how the text, images, and other components are going to be linked with one another are all laid out in the HTML code of a site.

When a surfer types in his query in a search engine, he is presented with a list of results, any of which he can select. The web site that has come up first in the list of results that the search has generated is usually able to do so because it is more popular than the other sites. This is where search engine optimization comes into play.

SEO or search engine optimization in Dubai and almost everywhere else refers to the process of increasing the amount of visitors to a web site by ranking high in the search results of a search engine. It is a very effective online marketing tool employed by site owners and experts in web development in Dubai to increase a site’s relevancy.

HTML and SEO when combined, form a powerful force. The simple interface HTML applies in generating a website enables the basic information featured on the site to be made available to a search engine, which skips past the flash of the site.

The originality of the content plays a major role here as it has a lot of bearing in how soon the site is picked up by the search engine and made available to the surfer.

A contract entered into by any search engine optimization in Dubai firm and their clients should have an underlying agreement ingrained with the expectations of each party. The quality of work expected from the Search engine optimizer by the latter is the most prominent feature of this agreement.

Observed from the client’s point of view, he is putting in the finances so such expectations are justified. However, it is crucial for the client to remember that SEOs cannot always deliver the exact same results. For certain, there are going to be inconsistencies present.

For any online marketing strategy to be successful, the client has to have a rock-solid business plan. It cannot be copied from a rival company’s business methods. It has to be unique. There are some strategies known to work better for some businesses and against for other businesses. The business plan also has to be as flexible as the market is dynamic. A search engine optimization in Dubai firm can accordingly accommodate their strategies to take into account market fluctuations.

SEOs are known to be adept at recognizing those sections of the market that demonstrate the potential for bringing in higher profits than the rest. The formulated business plan has to be understood accurately by a search engine optimization in Dubai business in order to assure long-term profits for its client businesses.

It is the client’s responsibility to approve keywords and content besides involving himself in the online marketing campaign. A personal touch is always a good thing. Without active participation on part of the client, the entire online marketing plan can fall apart.

Cosmos Creatives Dubai works hard to synchronize ideas between clients and their in-house SEOs. Each stage of the optimization process is carefully worked upon for getting optimized results.
