In the past a search for Morgan Hill Dance would usually list our site (http://www.geocities.com/morganhilldance) at number three. I recently changed the format and added frames (I used MS Word) and added some Meta key words. The index is now basically just the frame format. I'm not sure where I should put the title and Meta tags anymore so I put them on every page. Is this right or should I just put a title and key words only on the index page. Is yahoo punishing me? Also, did MS Word add too much superfluous junk?My web site was ranked high in yahoo search now it is gone from the results. What do I need to change?Hi, your meta information is improperly formatted...
%26lt;meta%26gt; is not a tag. After your title, you should have the following:
%26lt;META NAME=%26quot;description%26quot; Content=%26quot;Your Page description goes here%26quot;%26gt;
%26lt;META NAME=%26quot;keywords%26quot; Content=%26quot;comma delimited string of keywords here%26quot;%26gt;
that should do it..My web site was ranked high in yahoo search now it is gone from the results. What do I need to change?contact yahoo. they may have an explanation.My web site was ranked high in yahoo search now it is gone from the results. What do I need to change?You provided yourself with the answer in your question.
You put it into frames.
They are notoriously bad for search engines. The se's like to have some text to get their teeth into and by changing over to a frames based layout you have removed all the text that was on the page.
It would be good to write the page in a different program also. Try to use standard html as the coding is very bad from office / word.
