Free Tips to improve search rankings:

Pick Strategic Keywords
People browsing the internet often times search for Websites by typing keywords into the search engines. These words that you think your users are using to find your web site isn't always accurate, or else is only a small listing of the actual terms being searched for. We recommend that your strategic keywords should always be at least two or more words long. Often times too many sites will be relevant for a single word, and we like to have a guarantee that we will succeed for you.

Position Your Keywords
Make sure your strategic keywords appear in the major or important areas on your web pages. The title of the web page is extremely important. If you do not put your most strategic keywords in the page title, you may have a great site, however it will rank poorly. Use strategic keywords your title, your major descriptions and page titles. We also recommend that they appear in the first paragraphs of your web site. We don't recommend you over do it, usually you want to have a major keyword appear in your pages content about 6 times. (more or less depending on how much text is on the page)

Take web design in to consideration when trying to improve your search engine rankings!
Many webmasters will design web sites using many tables and scripts. Using tables i your web site, the search engine may read your website inefficiently and put more relevant text lower down on the web page. This is because a search engine will separate text from a table and often times move it down the page. You can view a crawl test of your site by going to http://www.seomoz.org/crawl-test/

Having lots of javascript or also using javascript for linking is a big NO NO. Often times javascript links are not properly indexed and javascript will also push relevant content further down your page which is not good!

Use Meta Tags
Meta tags and title tags are your first step to improving your search rankings. Your meta tags should include only relevant keywords that show up in your web page content. Your description tag should do the same. For more information on meta tags go to http://www.yourhtmlsource.com/promotion/metatags.html

Keep it relevant
Make sure you are always keeping your relevant keywords in 3 places. Your title tag, meta tags and pages content. Each page should have a custom title tag, meta tags and custom content.

Do not repeat the same content
Try to avoid having the same content repeated over and over again on different pages. This decreases the relevancy of that quality work you created.

Do away with descriptive images
Text is your best friend in improving search engine rankings! Don't put a lot of content within images! Your sites content should be in html text because search engines can't read images or some javascript!

Link Relevancy
Make sure you have links that are named after your keywords, and also ensure that you link from your home page to your most relevant pages. This will help your rankings! So for example, if your primary business is selling dog treats on the internet, you may want to create a page that is actually called buy-dog-treats.html because most people you want to attract will actually search to buy dog treats.

Don't go completely dynamic
Sites that are all run on PHP, CGI, ASP or another scripting language typically don't rank as high in the search engines. So create key pages that summarize your key terms in good old HTML. Also avoid using weird symbols like questions marks in your URL's. Dashes and underscores are fine.

Get Links! Not just links, Quality relevant ones!
If you are really serious about gaining traffic to your web site I recommend you do this, and do it a lot until you gain your desired results. Link building is a strategy that is often times done inefficiently. You need to only obtain links from other sites that are relevant to your own. When you perform a link exchange or get your link on someone else's web site, try to have them put your main keywords in your link title.

Some good ways to obtain links would be to write articles or to give away free stuff that people actually want (scripts, goods, services, etc). This will get people linking and talking, and relevancy will take care of itself.
