The goal of this document is to help you get the most out of search engines in general, and MondoSearch in particular. By tuning the way you code, name and organize documents, you can enhance the quality of search results and thereby improve user satisfaction. The following guidelines will not only give you optimal use of MondoSearch but will also enhance your presentation with Web-wide search engines such as AltaVista and HotBot. There are many things you can do to optimize your Web site for searching, but please note that MondoSearch will usually provide satisfactory results even if you don't follow any of the guidelines given below.
Titles are one of the most important things to optimize.
With good titles, the results will be much easier to understand because it is the title that appears as the link name for each found page. Do not use the same title more than once. Page authors often neglect the titles of these documents, so they tend to be poorly chosen or absent. A META-tag is a hidden piece of information that can be placed in an HTML document. You can even have several names for each type.
