Landing page - called as a destination page, is the web page that visitors arrive at after they click the link on a search engine results page.

A landing page can be the first page of a website that was advertised on the search engine results page, or from one of the natural results from the search query.

Page 16: Search Engine Optimization

This page generally displays logical information, usually something that pertains directly to the keywords searched, or has the keywords directly on the page.

This can be a transactional or a reference page as well. In pay per click and other paid inclusion campaigns the landing page is considered the place where “the deal is closed” which basically means that visitors decide on the landing page whether they are going to use the service of the web page or not.

Long tail keywords - type of keyword phrase that has at least three, and some times as many as five words in the phrase. Long tail keywords are used when the website wants to refine search terms to the web page, as well as when the searcher is looking for something rather specific.

Like normal keywords, long tail keywords are used to define what is on the web page and what the publisher wants to be found under in search engines and on search engine results pages. These keywords are highly specific, and draw less traffic for the website, but tend to draw more quality traffic, which leads in more conversions than normal keywords. Long tail keywords can also be used by publishers and visitors in different ways.

Page 18: Search Engine Optimization

When publishers are using long tail keywords, they are searching to corner a market that might be smaller than normal, but has just as much potential as other, larger, more exposed markets. Using long tail keywords can also be less expensive when it comes to pay per click biding, and other paid inclusion methods, as there are less people attempting to place bids on those keywords for pay per click ads on search engine results pages. Visitors use long tail keywords to narrow down what they are searching for. When a visitor is looking for “blue fuzzy carrot shoes” it makes more sense to put in the entire phrase than to put in “fuzzy shoes,” “fuzzy carrots,” or “carrot shoes” and attempt to filter out any of the search results that have nothing to do with blue fuzzy carrot shoes.
