SEO Glossary – Five-in-One List for Novice and Experts - II



Getting into the SEO glossary list once more, this is the second list as I got on with the first list successfully. I got a lot of likes on the StumbleUpon page. Here is another list coming your way:

F

Feed - Content delivered to the user via a special website or programs like the news aggregators

FFA – Free For All is a page or site with many outbound links to some irrelevant websites, containing little unique contents.

Frames – A web design where two or more than two documents appear on the same screen each within their own frame. Frames are not good for SEO as spiders fail to navigate them in the right order.


Fold – The Webpage cut off by the bottom of the screen at this line. This gives an initial glimpse of the webpage and gives pertinent information to the viewer without scrolling down the entire page.

G

Gateway Page – A web page attracts traffic from the search engine and then redirects it to another site or page. A doorway page is not similar to cloaking, but the effect remains same as the user and search engines serve as different content.

Gizmo – The smallest application used on the web page to provide a specific function like hit counter or IP address display. They are good link bait.

Google Bomb – It is the combined effort from the multiple webmaster to change the Google Search Result to have a humorous effect. Like “a miserable failure – George Bush” and “Greatest American Living – Steven Colbert”.

Google Bowling - Malicious way to lower the site rank by sending the links to bad sites.

Google Dance – A change in the SERP caused due to update in Google database or Algorithm.

Google Juice – It is the trust or authority from Google, which flows through the outbound links to other neighborhoods.

Googlebot – A Spider program controlled by Google

Google Keyword Tool – A tool that is going to provide the SEO Analyzers with new keyword ideas based upon the keywords they type.

GYM – Google, Yahoo and Microsoft, the three big search engines spelt together

H

Hit – It is a standard, which once judged the web traffic, but now they are replaced by page views a.k.a Impressions. A hit occurs when the server sends an object – documents, graphics, files etc. One page view can generate many hits.

Hubs - It is a trusted page with high quality contents, which send links to other quality pages

HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) – These are used to add formatting and web functioning to plain text for use on the internet. HTML called the mother tongue of the search engines so you must strictly use it at the webpage.

Header Tags (H1, H2, H3) – This is an important piece of HTML code which indicates the search engines on what is present in your web page.

Home Page – This is the most important page and the first page seen if you type your domain in the address bar.

.htaccess – A file on your website server by which you are allowed to set a number of functions.

Hummingbird – A popular Google Algorithm launched in 2013 that focus on improving conversational search.

I

Impression – When a user views a webpage one time at least

Inbound Link – A link from a website that points towards your website

Internal Link – A link to connect one page of your website to another page

Information Architecture – The way, by which you categorize, organize and access the content in your website.

Index (n) – A database of the webpage and their content from which the search engines use them every time.

Index (v) – This is the process to add webpage to the search engine index

Indexed Pages - The pages on a site that’s indexed.

IP (Internet Protocol) Address – This is a unique number given to the computer or server connected to the internet.

J

JavaScript – To add dynamic features to your website, this is a special type of code.
