Many just add the URL or innacurate keywords in the anchors resulting in no SERP rankings or traffic.

2. The Best Website Design

Another task is to make sure that the website is designed correctly with pleasing colors and good navigation.

a) Colors – Colors are crucial for web design, for the look as well as usability of the site. A fine example is using balck background with neon font. This can be irritating for the eyes and deter visitors.

The safest option is white background and dark text or vice versa.

b) Navigation – Another big mistake is to have confusing or worse non-existent navigation of all the content on the site. The best navigation is usually placed in the top nav menu bar, left sidebar or right side of the web page. The colors should also emphasize the navigation area, distinguishing its existence from the rest of the site. Traffic needs to be able to find all the content your site has to offer quickly and easily. The Internet crowd has a short attention span and if they cannot easily navigate they will leave.

3. Content

Lack of fresh, original and keyword relevant content is a typical newbie mistake. Deep websites, those that have lots of pages, will usually keep visitors on the site longer. The search engines feed on good content and favor it in the SERPS.

The more content you have the more opportunity you will have for exposure to the ads, affiliate links, blog RSS buttons and whatever other actions you want visitors to perform.
