Step 3
Search engines use keywords in order to put websites into appropriate categories. Then when a person uses a keyword in a search the appropriate sites will be shown. When you are deciding on the keywords to best fit your website, think carefully. You will want to be sure that you are using keywords that many people will use in a search. Keywords that will direct them in the search engines visit your site.
