2. Are you familiar with the latest craze sweeping the web?
More and more savvy web users are turning to a new way
of searching to find quality information that does not rely
on traditional search engine algorithm. Fed up with sifting
through pages and pages of irrelevant search engine
results to find what they want, web users have switched
to tagging as a viable, time-saving alternative to
researching for distinct information. This new tagging
trend is luring legions of Internet surfers.
4. Tagging is basically assigning keywords or tags to web
content such as photos, web pages or blog posts. When a
web user talks about tagging, he is simply referring to how
he summarizes what his web page, picture or blog is all
about.
7. Tagging helps web page owners to know what users are
searching for. They then create web content that is
relevant and easy to find. In the process, these contents
will gain in popularity as well.
8. If a web page operator made a web page for an in-demand
tag that everybody is searching for, he will definitely get
highly targetted traffic. Other users who found the content
of the web page of good quality will bookmark the page
making it rise in popularity. As it becomes more popular,
more and more users will bookmark it paving the way for
more traffic. By tagging content, it gets to be evaluated by
users who decide if the content is useful. If it is useful, free
traffic will follow. Another thing with tagging is that a web
owner can select several tags for each page in his site. This
means a chance to rank high for many tags in the highly-
trafficked bookmarking sites that use tags to organize
information.
