Directories primarily emphasize titles, the description you submit to them, and the category or categories you select in the directories. Directories do NOT use meta-tags for relevancy results. We have found that a very large percentage of website owners do not realize the time it takes for your website to be indexed in search engines. Vivid descriptions lacking keywords or phrases related to your site's content will ensure low ranking. Remember to locate your internet providers hosting information.
Websites also look different on screens with different resolutions.
A website designed on a 640x480 screen will look different on a 1024x768 screen. Keywords in the title tag, particularly the start of the title is very important. Links from pages containing the keyword will boost your ranking. Therefore, you may want to create pages for AltaVista that use the keyword as the first word of the title tag and then use it again at the top of the page. If AltaVista only counts two instances of the keyword, there may be no point in creating a meta keyword tag at all.
