How to Write SEO Rich Articles for a Web Page

For a site to be successful, it is important that its content is SEO friendly. That means that if a person enters a query on search engines about something that someone has written about his site, his post should come in the top recommended links. This will help to get a good amount of organic traffic and it will help the site to rank better on search engines. For this to happen, one must know the basics of writing SEO rich content. In this article we will cover the basics of writing SEO rich articles for the web. Selecting Proper Keywords: It is of utmost importance to select proper key words for your article. Also, you need to have a proper key word density in your article content. Keyword density is the number of times the keywords are repeated in the article. For an article to be SEO rich, the key word density should be about .5% to 5%. Let’s understand this with the help of an example. Say, you are writing an article about ‘Best Cars in 2013’, and the article of about 500 words. You have to ensure that the key words should be included in the article about 3 to 25 times for it to be SEO rich. But, that doesn’t mean that you will compromise of the flow of the article. The keywords should fit in naturally. Your readers should not be put off by key word stuffing. If you are a good writer you should be able to keep both search engines and your readers happy! Also the key words should be included in the title and permalink. Make use of both Post Title and Meta Title: Post titles are visible to readers but meta titles are only visible to search engines. Most of the time, bloggers use the same words for post title and meta title. While this is not wrong, but you can better optimize your article by using different words for each of them. Make sure that you use long keywords and key words with less competition. Say you are writing an article about ‘Search Engine Optimization’. There are thousands of articles optimized for these key words. So, instead of using these key words, try something like – SEO tips to help your site rank better. There are many free tools to find good key words like Google Adwords Tool, Word Tracker etc. Interlinking: Interlinking is another important technique for good SEO. You must have at least 100 articles on your site to rank better and if you have articles written on related topics, it is always good to interlink them. It will make the reader click on the other articles to know more and it will also help search engines to index the linked articles. Do not use generic words like ‘click here’ or ‘follow the link’ to link articles. Instead, use the title or key words of the articles for linking where ever possible. Avoid Stop Words from your post Permalink: Stop words does not literally mean the word ‘stop’. They are actually overused and extremely common words that search engines skip to save space and speed up indexing. Here is a list of stop words ignored by search engines. (link: http://www.agent-seo.com/seo/seo-stop-words/). Try to avoid them where ever possible. Use Alt image attribute: Images are not searchable on their own on search engines. But by using proper image alt tag you can make your image rank better. An article might not rank well for a certain key word but, it can rank well for image search. It can even bring you unexpected organic traffic. These were certain tips to write SEO rich articles for a web page. Hope you found them useful.

Windows – Startup and Shutdown Procedure

Starting Windows and Shut down it is a very common thing, which everyone knows. But do you know the processes running behind these two tasks? In this article, we are going to discuss all the running processes behind these two very common tasks. Windows Startup process For booting every system, a program called boot loader is required, which is responsible for accessing the file system on the boot drive. This program is also responsible for loading boot-time device drivers into the Read Only Memory. In the newer versions of Windows, the boot loader is called NTLDR. This NTLDR starts ntoskrnl.exe, which loads all the Boot as well as System drivers. After ntoskrnl.exe has done its work, the Windows kernel (Windows NT) starts a program smss.exe (Session Manager Subsystem). The smss.exe starts winlogon, which is responsible for loading graphical identification and authentication library. After this, the Windows logon screen appears. Here user selects the respective Username and enters the Password. When the user successfully enters the password, the startup sound is played. Once, the user has successfully logged in to the machine, Explorer.exe is loaded from the System.ini file. After this, explorer.exe loads a list of all the Startup programs into the memory. It is also responsible for applying User settings. In the newer versions of Windows (Vista and after), the boot loader is called winload.exe and it is loaded into memory by Windows Boot Manager. Windows Shutdown process In windows, the shutdown process is called ExitWindowsEx() process, which is initiated by Win32 API call. When any application or program calls ExitWindowsEx() process to request a shutdown or reboot (restart), then the ExitWindowsEx() process sends a message to winlogon requesting to stop the current session. When winlogon receives the request, it first requests a logout to the user. This request also involves an end-session message as well as an ending all events request. Winlogon also ends all the background processes, sending end process requests again and again. After this, the user account gets logoff. After this, a process called Service Controller is informed that Windows is going to shut down. At last, winlogon tells the Session Manager Subsystem (SMSS) to shut the system down. Here, the Session Manager Subsystem sends a shutdown request to the Session Manager Subsystem’s LPC port. The Session Manager Subsystem’s LPC port informs all other system clients that the system is going to shut down. It tells the clients to terminate their respective processes. After which, it calls another process called NtShutdownSystem(). This process NtShutdownSystem() terminates all the plugged devices and the system is finally in the shutdown state.
