Page Critic - Based on the Analyzed data and the current rules in my knowledge base, here are my suggestions for improving the ranking of your page on AltaVista:**
Suggestions based on the analysis of your page for AltaVista for keyword 'marketing.':
  • Obtaining a domain name with your Keyword in it may significantly affect your score on AltaVista. Including the Keyword in a sub-directory name or page name can also help, although not as much. Separate multiple words by dashes, underscores, or slashes in the case of sub-directories. Consider purchasing a secondary domain name for this purpose if ranking well on AltaVista is important to you.
  • In general, home pages will rank higher than sub-pages, all other things being equal. Therefore, if you are looking for an additional advantage, consider purchasing additional domains named after the most important Keywords you wish to optimize, and then optimize the home page for each domain for a different Keyword.
  • Consider naming this page with your keyword included in the file name. Click the help link for further explanation.
General Suggestions for AltaVista:
  • Your ranking and the ranking of other sites may be influenced by the "popularity" of the site. This is determined by how many sites link to your own. The more sites that you can get to link to you, the better!

  • Older pages on AltaVista appear to score better than more recently indexed pages. Therefore, it's best to not change or re-submit pages created for AltaVista if you don't have to.
  • You can improve your score if you allow your doorway pages to be spidered by AltaVista rather than submitting them directly.
  • Consider creating pages with varying Keyword weights for AltaVista. Click here to learn more.
  • Along with using your Keyword at the top of the page, be sure to use your Keyword at least once near the bottom of your page in the Body area. This can help convey an over-all "theme" to the page and may improve your score. Click here to learn why.
  • Since plurals are not recognized as being synonymous by AltaVista, try to use the plural form of the Keyword in addition to the singular form when possible to capture more potential traffic.
  • AltaVista is believed to be case sensitive. Consider using upper, lower, and proper case versions of your most important Keywords to increase traffic.
Suggestions for making your page conform closer to the statistical averages for top ranking pages for single keyword searches:
