How To optimize an image For SEO

[caption id="attachment_363" align="aligncenter" width="601"] How To optimize an image For SEO[/caption]

Contrary to popular belief, search engine optimization (SEO) goes beyond keywords. In fact, Google (and other search engines, consider lots of different factors, from those trusty keywords, to page load time, domain maturity and more when they determine where to rank your site in search engine results pages (SERPs). If you’ve mastered keyword optimization and want to take your SEO skills to the next level, images are a great place to start.

Unless you are a photographer, you more than likely aren’t thinking about Google crawling your site and looking for images. But, optimizing images for search doesn’t only increase rankings for your images. Image SEO can help boost your rankings for your target keywords. Pretty nifty, huh?

Titles

Always use a descriptive file name for your image title. If you are using original photography, cameras will output the manufacturers’ settings, such as “DCS_0022.jpg.” While that may be convenient for storing files on your computer, it doesn’t do anything for SEO.

Name your file with descriptive words about the image. Don’t be cute, be direct. Use a relevant description where the words are separated by hyphens (remember, Google reads hyphens to assume where spaces between words should be placed) not underscores.

Keep it simple. You don’t need to go overboard and load your image description with related keywords. Think about how people search. Most of the time, they’re asking questions, not plugging keywords into Google.

ALT Tags

ALT tags represent an HTML field that provides search engines more information about the image. The ALT tag was primarily intended to improve accessibility, but marketers have found that ALT tags are a requirement for maximizing the SEOh impact of images.

While every other point in this article can impact how your images are found, the ALT tag field is directly correlated with telling search engines more information about the image. Don’t skip it.

You can use ALT tags to expand on the file name using context. For example, the image I used at the top of this blog uses the filename “optimize-images-for-seo.jpg.” Because that is the precise longtail keyword I am looking to optimize this blog for, I used the same ALT tag. If I had titled the image simply “optimize.jpg”, I could use “optimize your images for SEO” as the ALT tag in order to expand upon my short image title.

Your tag should be short. Keep it to one sentence or less. ALT tags are exceptionally important. They provide search engines with contextual clues that provide insight into the message or information you are trying to convey and this, in turn, can have a dramatic impact on your SEO.

Captions

When Google finds an image without a descriptive file name or an ALT tag, it will attempt to understand the contents of an image by crawling the surrounding copy. Captions are one of the first locations search engines crawl to determine more information about an image.

Captions are tricky because they don’t look very appealing. On WordPress in particular, you can always notice a caption by the “lovely” gray or tan box that appears around your entire image when a caption is added. Before you add a caption, make sure it is relevant to your image, adds value, and won’t become a distraction. While they can help with SEO, captions are a non-essential item. ALT tags and Titles hold far more weight and have the added benefit of not being visible to your website visitors on the front end.

File Size

These days, SEO is all about speed. As a society, we’ve become accustomed to getting the information we need quickly and as a result, are less willing to wait for a website or web page to load. Search engines know this and are looking to deliver the best possible experience to the people who use them to find information. As a result, your site’s search engine rankings can be harmed if it takes too long for pages to load. One of the biggest factors that influences page speed is image size.

Images to be used on the web should always be 72 dpi (dots per inch). The quality required of an image to be used on the web is drastically different from one suited for print quality. Always make sure your images are “saved down” to accommodate page speed.

In addition to image size, the image file type can also play a significant role. To learn more about image types,

Context

Images can be amazing visual differentiators for a website, but make sure the images you are using are relevant. It may seem super appealing to follow the large image trend, but if your image isn’t aligned with your site’s aesthetic or content, then why go to the trouble?

Make sure that the contents of the image are relevant to your on page copy. Every image won’t have or doesn’t need a caption, so pay careful attention to the copy surrounding your image. Does the copy support the image contents? If your answer is no, choose a different image.

In Conclusion

Don’t go overboard. SEO is an incredibly complex field, and there are people whose entire job is SEO. Optimizing your sites images isn’t going to take you from the tenth page of Google to the first, but it will help Google to understand your site better and will improve your rankings.

If you haven’t ever paid attention to your image titles and ALT tags, start reviewing what assets you already have and identify a strategy to use these tactics moving forward.

How To  Drive More Traffic To Your Blog

[caption id="attachment_358" align="aligncenter" width="601"] How To Drive More Traffic To Your Blog[/caption]

 

here are a lot of tactics listed below and when used in the right way they can have a huge impact on your traffic. How To  Drive More Traffic To Your Blog.

For example, I’ve seen people put only a few of these tactics into action and see a 400%+ increase in traffic. Awesome right?!

The key here is to focus on a single tactic, make it work and then come back to this post to try something else. If you try too many at the same time, you won’t see the traffic increases that you deserve.

Ready to get started?

How To  Drive More Traffic To Your Blog

 

1. Topic selection

If you decide to write about a topic that nobody is interested in, you’re going to struggle to get traffic, no matter how good your content is.

So how can you get a good idea of which topics to write about?

Reading a lot of other blogs and forums can be a great way to start, but there are also a bunch of tools that will help you here, for example:

• Google Trends – This will show you a graph of how interest has increased/decreased over time.


• BuzzSumo – This tool will show you which topics are generating the most social shares.


• SEMrush (aff) – With this tool you can find out exactly what keywords your competitors are ranking for in Google and get an estimate of how much traffic those keywords can bring in.

The important thing here is to ensure that the topics you choose fit with your content strategy and are focused on helping your target audience.

Matching your audience up with the right topic is a huge first step in winning the battle for attention online.

 

2. Write more engaging headlines

David Ogilvy famously said “On average, five times as many people read the headlines as read the body copy.”

Even if this average isn’t 100% correct today, one thing we can be certain of is that headlines matter.

They can either make or break the success of each post you publish.

There are plenty of posts discussing best practices of writing awesome headlines but there are two important factors to remember:

• Your headline is a promise and you should always deliver on that promise


• However you write your headline, it should leave an unanswered question

There are also headline writing tools like CoSchedule’s Headline Analyzer which can help you but the one thing that will serve you best which is the one thing these types of tools can’t replicate.

And that’s … YOU!

 

3. improve blog’s design

Design matters – when your blog’s design is clear and crisp, people will want to keep coming back to it.

You may find yourself being mentioned on other blog’s as an example to follow when done right.

The great thing is that you don’t need to be a designer or developer to have an impressive blog design.

So if you use WordPress, you’re in luck because there are so many impressive themes out there.

Sure, you could use a free theme and there are some decent ones about but the best tend to be paid.

 

4. Improve your blog’s loading time

Loading times are so important.

Slow loading times have proven to cause a huge drop in conversions.

While it’s true that page loading times are a ranking factor for search engines like Google, it’s only a small part of their algorithm so it may increase traffic but not by too much.

The real benefit here is in keeping your existing readers coming back to your site and providing an awesome user experience.

 

5. Make internal links

When you add relevant internal links to your blog, you make it easier for people to find your best content and you also make it easier for search engines to index your content.

Don’t add internal links just for the sake of it; add them only when you feel it’s relevant and helpful to readers.

 

6. Add social share buttons to your blog

It’s important to make it easy for your followers to share your blog posts.

But adding too many social sharing buttons could potentially have a negative impact.

The key is to identify the most important social networks for your audience.

If your content is written for small businesses, it may be helpful to include a LinkedIn share button.

 

7. Focus on building your email list

Out of all of the other tactics in this post, the most dependable is this one.

Social networks may come and go but your email list will always be yours.

Growing your email list boils down to two things:

• Make it easy for your readers to sign up to your list


• Offer them a compelling reason to join your list

The truth is that there are a huge number of specific tactics you can use for this so it’s worth reading this post to find out more (you probably won’t need to read another post about building your list after reading it).

As your list grows, the more traffic you’ll be able to send to your latest posts.

 

8. Write a guest post for another blog

This is one of the most effective ways to increase your blog’s traffic.

Let me be clear – you’re not going to get floods of traffic in most cases and the time required to invest in this tactic is pretty high.

But, what matters here is that guest blogging is a long term strategy and what matters more than traffic is building your online presence.

Building your authority and making yourself known is one of the main benefits. This will pay off in the long term.

You may need to start off on small blogs first and work your way up to the larger publications, so stick with it and your blog will grow faster.

 

Google CEO is Change New CEO IS Sundar Pichai

[caption id="attachment_351" align="aligncenter" width="601"] Google CEO is Change New CEO IS Sundar Pichai[/caption]

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIFORNIA:  Google today declared a noteworthy rebuilding of the organization, naming previous Product Chief Sundar Pichai as the new CEO and turning into a backup of a recently framed guardian venture called Alphabet.

The move made Pichai, 43, yet another India-conceived officer to lead a noteworthy worldwide innovation company after Microsoft's Satya Nadella.

According to a blog post by co-founder Larry Page, Google will now become a "slimmed-down" company and be part of Alphabet Inc. along with ventures "far afield of our main internet products".

"Good examples are our health efforts: Life Sciences (that works on the glucose-sensing contact lens), and Calico (focused on longevity)" Mr Page said.

He said the move would make Google "cleaner and more accountable". Alphabet, meanwhile, will be run by Mr Page as CEO and Google co-founder Sergey Brin as President.

For Chennai-born Sundar Pichai, becoming CEO comes 11 years after he joined Google following a stint at management consultancy McKinsey and Company.

At Google, he started out with heading products such as the company's new web browser Chrome and later most of Google's consumer software portfolio including the Android operating system.

Mr Pichai is alumnus of IIT Kharagpur, Stanford University and The Wharton School. He will be a "key part" of the new structure that will "allow us to keep tremendous focus on the extraordinary opportunities we have inside Google", Mr Page said.

"I feel very fortunate to have someone as talented as he is to run the slightly slimmed down Google and this frees up time for me to continue to scale our aspirations," he said.

Reiterating a line from a founders' letter 11 years ago, Mr Page who started the company with his partner Sergey Brin as a research project at Stanford, said, "Google is not a conventional company. We do not intend to become one."

4 secret SEO techniques That Increase Your Website Traffic

 

1. Keywords

When you think about creating content, know the words that people are using to search. Every page should be built around keywords that are most important to you and your company. Do your homework. When you are producing pages for your website, use the best keywords on every post.

Google helps you with your keywords. When you start to type into the search bar on Google, it gives you suggestions of popular words or phrases that people use in a search. If you want to take it one step further, you can use a tool called Google Keyword Planner that will tell you popular keywords. It will tell you true numbers of how many average monthly searches are occurring with those keywords.

 

2. Image tags

People have images all over their websites, and I am always surprised when bloggers don't identify the images. Google indexing sites need to understand what the image is and when it should be served up. You must tag your images. If there are none, Google does not know how to identify the image.

In WordPress, Yoast is a plugin that reminds you to label your images. With tags, Google will know what the image is, how to index it, where to store it and when to bring it up in a search.

3. Meta description

Right below your URL on the search page is a sentence that serves as the meta description. This is an important summary that tells people what they will learn on the page. You want it to be engaging and truthful and prompt people to click and learn more. Use call-to-action words such as "learn" and "visit" to engage people and encourage them to find out why the information on your page is important to them.

 

4. Backlinks

One of the things that is highly valued in SEO are backlinks. Backlinks are incoming hyperlinks from one webpage to another -- in other words, people linking to your website because they found value in what you're saying. In addition, you'll want to include hyperlinks to give your readers more useful information and to help build relationships with other bloggers.

Make sure that the links add value to your readers' lives. You can never have too many backlinks for an article. You will build high traffic that will help you rise up in the results.

These are tips you can implement with your next blog post to potentially increase your website's traffic and gain new followers or customers. Give them a try and see what they can do for your business.

Make Money Online with CPA Networks 2015

[caption id="attachment_336" align="aligncenter" width="601"] Make Money Online with CPA Networks 2015[/caption]

 

Click-Per-Action (CPA) networks provide some of the fastest and easiest ways for affiliate marketers to make big money online.

Advertisers such as Netflix, eHarmony, Liberty Mutual Insurance or any other company are looking for new leads and are willing to pay for them. How much depends on the company and the offer, but generally about $10 to $20 per lead.

CPA Networks serve as the middleman between advertisers and affiliate marketers who can provide these leads.

Ok, let’s see how this can make me money using a CPA network

The Breakdown

CPA Networks tell the advertisers that their members can provide a certain number of new leads. In exchange, the advertisers tell the CPA Networks that they will give them a certain percentage of the commission – anywhere from 1% to 5% usually — on that lead if they can deliver what they promise.

For example, if Netflix is paying $20 for new leads who sign up for their service, the CPA network representing Netflix to their affiliates make $1 and the affiliates make $19.

To earn that commission, basically CPA networks make sure that their affiliates are able to back up their statements to their advertisers that they can provide the amount of leads they are promising.

If affiliates can’t support their claims, advertisers are going to go find other CPA networks that can deliver what they promise.

With the popularity of the internet as a marketing tool, there are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of CPA networks out there all competing for the same limited number of advertisers.

 

CPA Networks and Risk

CPA networks take a certain amount of financial risk because in some cases they pay out their affiliates before they are reimbursed by their clients.

If for some reason the client decides not to pay, or the client goes out of business, then the affiliate already has been paid and the CPA network is left holding the bag.

 

Not All Marketers Can Join

CPA networks have to be a little exclusive as to which affiliates they choose to be in their network. What they really want to see are affiliate marketers who can produce the leads for their clients. What they don’t really want to see are affiliates who are newbies who don’t know what they are doing or, worse yet, scammers who are just going to take the money and run.

If you can show a CPA network that you are not a newbie or a scammer, it’s fairly easy to get into almost any network. In this guide, we are going to show you exactly how you can do it.

 

Do Your Research First

Before you start applying to CPA networks, you are going to want to do your homework and find the best ones on the Internet to do join. If you are legitimate affiliate marketer, you are likely going to get accepted to almost all the CPA networks you apply to, especially if you follow the steps in this report.

But not all CPA networks are created equal. Some represent big-money advertisers and pay out their commissions promptly, resolve issues efficiently, and have sterling reputations. Others, not so much.

Trying to tell the difference between the two if you are inexperienced can be difficult. Your best bet is to ask your peer affiliate marketers which networks they like to work with. Another option is to visit an Internet marketing forum such as Warrior Forum and ask around there.

 

Biggest Isn’t Always Better

A lot of people apply to the biggest CPA networks because they tend to have the biggest name clients and consequently the biggest commissions. But if you are just starting out with CPA networks, it may be a good idea to begin with second-tier CPA networks until you gain some experience.

The big, established networks are much more exclusive as to who they let in than the smaller networks, so instead of beating your head on the wall trying to get accepted, you can get started right away with the smaller ones and gain the experience that will grease your way into the mega-networks later.

 

Don’t Give Up

If for some reason you are denied entry into a CPA network, don’t take it personally. Just move on to another one because there are hundreds of them.

If it is really important to you to be on that network, then simply add a note to your calendar to try again in a couple of months. By that point, you probably will be more experienced anyway and will have a better chance of being accepted.

How to Learn SEO in 5 Minutes 2015

 

[caption id="attachment_329" align="aligncenter" width="601"] How to Learn SEO in 5 Minutes 2015[/caption]

 

Totally new to the SEO game? Start here.

What follows is the simplest, most jargon-free explanation of search engine optimization.

 

Step 1. How do Search Engines Work?

The primary job of a search engine is to constantly find new web pages and organizing them. That’s pretty much it!

Then when people use search engines, they retrieve and display those pages based roughly on a few major characteristics:

• Relevance: How closely related is this information to what someone’s looking for?


• Authority: Does this page (and entire site) appear to be credible on this topic?


• Popularity: Do other people find this source helpful, and would they recommend it?

 

Step 2. So What is SEO?

SEO is simply a way of improving your odds of showing up when people look for information related to you.

 

For example, if your site sells hats that look like animals, then you want optimize your site to show up when someone searches for terms like:

• Animal hats


• Hat that looks like a duck


• Bear-shaped hat


• Whatever your business name is

You probably DON’T want your site to come up when somebody searches things like:

• Pink fedora


• Shoes that look like animals


• Formal headwear

It’s absolutely critical to understand how people might be looking for your products or services (i.e. what specific phrasing or topics are they looking for), so that you can determine (a) the popularity of these terms and compare that with (b) how competitive they might be (i.e. the pages and websites already showing up for these topics).

 

Step 3. The Importance of Pages

Once you know how to properly describe what you do (based on how people might be looking for it), then you want to lead these people to a specific page.

For example, if somebody specifically searches for a hat that looks like a duck, the page they land on should feature your duck hat!

On the other hand, if their search is more general (e.g. “Animal hats”) then you can show them a page that has an overview of all of your hats.

The key objective of SEO is to give people easy access to what they want to see (and having many different landing pages make this possible).

 

Step 4. Optimize!

The next big step is optimizing the website itself. Your site needs to be easy for search engines (and people!) to understand.

That means being as descriptive as possible with your content on each page, creating a better user experience by making the website load quickly, and making your website easy to navigate with little-to-no “dead ends” when people are clicking around.

SEO is an eclectic combination of tactics, tweaks, and best practices. Some of these are pretty quick and easy to implement while some can take a long time.

The best advice – regardless of whether you’re trying to do it yourself or hire someone else – is to become as knowledgeable as possible and stay up-to-date. Because what worked just a few years ago, might get you in trouble today.

 

Step 5. Think Big Picture

Despite the popularity and effectiveness of SEO, it’s important to keep perspective.

For example, how are your optimization efforts and tactics going to align with your overall marketing strategy? Because SEO is just one part of a complete digital marketing strategy.

So it’s critical that you understand your buyer’s journey (how they’re going to find and buy from you), analyze your entire website’s strengths and weaknesses, and ensure that enough visitors are turning into leads.

The biggest SEO mistakes occur when you treat it as some separate “thing”, and don’t integrate it with the rest of your marketing plan.

On-Page SEO: Tips To Optimize Your Page

[caption id="attachment_318" align="aligncenter" width="601"] On-Page SEO Tips To Optimize Your Page[/caption]

There are many people who are just starting to blog and many more that have run their own site for a while, that don’t know what SEO is and how to implement it! .On-Page SEO: Tips To Optimize Your Page.

SEO simply stands for Search Engine Optimisation. This is where you construct your web pages and implement certain techniques to help you rank as high as possible on search engine result pages (SERPs). The higher your pages can rank on Google/Bing/Yahoo/etc. results pages, the more traffic your site is likely to get.

Now, SEO can be split up into two separate categories; On-Page SEO & Off-Page SEO.

On-Page SEO refers to all the things that you can do ON your website to help you rank higher, such as page titles, internal linking, meta tags & descriptions, etc.

Off-Page SEO refers to all the things that you can do directly OFF your website to help you rank higher, such as social networking, article submission, forum & blog marketing, etc.

In today’s post we will be looking specifically at On-Page SEO and some of the most effective ways to increase your page rankings on search engines

1. Write SEO-Friendly Permalink URLs

Including search engine friendly URLs for each of your pages is highly recommended, as these bring better crawling. Shorter URLs seem to perform better in search engine results, however that is not the only factor.

You want your page’s URL to be short and keyword rich. Avoid ugly URLs, like bloggersetup.com/p=123 or long URLs like: bloggersetup.com/on-page-seo-is-so-amazing-omg-its-the-best.

RLs that include targeted keywords, also perform better. The location of these keywords can also be a major influence. For example site.com/keyword would perform better than site.com/365/738/subfolder/keyword etc.

As you can see for this page, the URL is http://www.bloggersetup.com/on-page-seo/ I have included the keywords that are relevant for this post.

2. Start Title With Keyword

Your page titles are one of the most important SEO factors on your site. Each of your pages & posts should have its own unique title, which includes the main keywords for that page.In general, the closer the keyword is to the beginning of the title tag, the more weight it has with search engines. On-Page SEO: Tips To Optimize Your Page.

For example, you could write a blog post about On-Page Seo Optimization that you have tried. It is therefore vitally important that you include ‘On-Page Seo Optimization’ within your post title, perhaps “On-Page Seo Optimization Tips” or “ Best On-Page Seo Optimization Tips ”, etc.

3. Use Outbound Links

This is an easy, white hat SEO strategy to get more traffic. Outbound links to related pages is a relevancy signal that helps Google figure out your page’s topic. It also shows Google that your page is a hub of quality info.

Not linking out might be the #1 on-page SEO mistake that I see people make. I usually link out 2-4x per 1000 words. That’s a good rule of thumb for most sites.

Keep in mind that the sites you link out to reflect on you. So make sure to link out to authority sites whenever possible.

5. Use Keyword in First 100 Words

Your keyword should appear in the first 100-150 words of the article.

This is something that you probably do naturally.

But a lot of writersstart their posts off with a long, meandering intro…and use their keyword for the first time in middle of the post. It’s better to drop your keyword somewhere in the first 100 words or so. That helps Google understand what your page is all about.

6. Add Your Title in an H1 Tag

The H1 tag is your “headline tag”. Most CMS’s (like WordPress) automatically add the H1 tag to your blog post title. If that’s the case, you’re all set. But some themes override this setting. Check your site’s code to make sure your title gets the H1 love it deserves.

Generally H1 tags are reserved for your main page title, with subsequent headings (just like the ones I have used throughout this post) being issued H2, H3, etc. Search engines use these to determine what is important within your content. This is why keyword rich headines are more useful than generic ones. Make sure you write keyword rich headings in the order of priority in H1, H2 and H3 title tags. They are used by many crawlers to differentiate important content.

7. Improve Your Page Loading Speed

Google has stated on the record that page loading speed is an important SEO ranking signal. You can boost your site speed by using a CDN, compressing images, and switching to faster hosting.

Make sure it doesn’t take more than 4 seconds for your page to load:MunchWeb found that 75% of users wouldn’t re-visit a site that took longer than 4 seconds to load.

You can easily check your site’s loading speed using GTMetrix.com:

CDNs and cache plugins are nice, but the #1 thing you can do to make your site faster is invest in premium hosting. Hostgator and Bluehost are decent for the money you’re paying. But they don’t hook you up with serious speed.

I’ve literally dropped loading times from 6 seconds to less than 2 seconds by switching from a $5 shared hosting plan to a top-notch host (I use Synthesis Hosting here at Backlinko). From a conversion and SEO standpoint, the ROI of premium hosting can’t be beat.

8. Meta Descriptions

Many people forget to include meta descriptions for their pages. These descriptions are an important place to include relevant keywords for your content, as these are used within the search results when your page is listed.

For instance, if we continue to use the ‘Chocolate Cake Recipe’ example, then a good meta description for that page would include those keywords and related ones. So, “This easy chocolate cake recipe is possibly the most delicious, mouth watering, chocolatey cake ever made.” would be a great meta description to use, as it is relatively short, whilst containing a number of specific keywords.

9. Meta Tags

For each of your pages, you can include a set of keywords in the form of meta tags. These should be all the relevant keywords of your content, which you will have researched previously.

I use a WordPress plug-in on my sites called ‘All In One SEO Pack’. This allows me to enter all of mymeta tag keywords, meta description and page title at the bottom of each of my posts before publishing. This simply inserts all of the information into your page HTML format for you, making your life a little easier.

10. Use Social Sharing Buttons

Social signals may not play a direct role in ranking your site. But social shares generate more eyeballs on your content. And the more eyeballs you get, the more likely someone is to link. So don’t be shy about placing social sharing buttons prominently on your site.

11. Post Long Content

The SEO adage “length is strength” was supported by a SERPIQ.com industry study which found that longer content tends to rank significantly higher on Google’s first page.

12. use LSI Keywords

LSI keywords are synonyms that Google uses to determine a page’s relevancy (and possibly quality).

I don’t go nuts about LSI because I usually write REALLY long content.

Long content increases the odds that you’ll naturally include LSI keywords in your content.

If you want to make 100% sure that you’re using LSI keywords, search for your keyword in Google and scroll down to the “Searches Related to…” area at the bottom of the page

13. Image Optimization:

I’ve found that traffic from image search to be pretty worthless (high bounce rate, low conversions etc.). That being said, I’ll take any visitor I can get. That’s why I always optimize each image around a keyword.

Make sure the file name includes your target keyword (for example, on_page_SEO.jpg) and that you include your target keyword as part of your image Alt Text:

14. Internal Linking

People often think that the only links that count are those from other websites. While these links are important, these are not the only important links!

Placing links to your other website pages, is a great way of improving your site and used properly,internal links can be a useful weapon in your SEO arsenal. Not only does it make it much easier for your visitors to navigate around your site and find all of your content, but it also ensures that your site gets properly crawled allowing the search engines to find all of your pages. It also helps to build the relevancy of a page to relevant keywords and phrases, whilst also helping to increase the Google Page Rank of your pages.

Over All

These 8 techniques are just some of the ways that you can improve your on-page SEO. Any one used independently of the others won’t make much difference to your site ranking, however when used together, they can help to improve your site traffic.

They will help to get your pages working better, they will help to get your entire site crawled by search engine spiders, they will help increase the value of internal pages and they will build the relevancy of internal pages to specific keyword phrases.

So, it pays to spend some time implementing these to improve your site! Please leave your comments below & feel free to ask any questions.
