Besides acquiring hands on experience about how to  apply different HTML tags, net marketers also keep themselves abreast of the latest changes that are taking place in search engine algorithms.

The body of the text on a page and the page title have the most influence on search engines.

There are two elements of search engine optimization that have the most influence on search engines. The first one is the body of the text on a page and the second one is the title of the page. Search engine spiders have a high priority for these two elements and the information that is garnered from here is taken as more relevant by them (the search engine spiders). Net marketers are fully conscious about this factor and so they work on this angle prudently. They devise sharp, compelling, and compatible content for the body of the page.

A high degree of importance is given to the position of the keywords on a web page and the ranking algorithm too works the same way. Supposing you are looking for a book on Travel. Your search will be most likely based on the Title i.e., Travel. So what you will do is that you’ll scan the catalog and look for titles that start with the word Travel. Search engines have a similar sort of style of working. The phrases that are appearing in the title tag are given priority over all other meta tags by search engines.

So to rank well in search engines place relevant content in the body of the web page.
