first tip: layout

Use your targeted keyword phrase:

*In META keywords. It's not necessary for google, but a good habit. Keep your META keywords short (128 characters max, or 10).

*In META description. Keep keyword close to the left but in a full sentence.

*In the title at the far left but possibly not as the first word.

*In the top portion of the page in the first sentence of first full bodied paragraph (plain text: no bold, no italic, no style).

*In a H3 or larger heading.

*In bold--second paragraph if possible and anywhere but the first usage on page

*In italic-- anywhere but first usage.

*In subscript-superscript.

*In url (directory name, filename or domain name) do not duplicate the keyword in the url.

*In an image filename used on the page.

*In ALT tag of that previous image mentioned.

*In the title attribute of that image.

* In link text to another site.

* In an internal links text.

* In title attributes of all links targeted in and out of page.

* In the file name of your external CSS (cascading style sheet).

* In an inbound link on site (preferably from your homepage).

* In an inbound link from offsite (if possible)

* In a link to a site that has a pagerank of 8 or better.

* Keep ratio of text to HTML very high. Text should out weigh HTML by significant amounts.

* The traffic comes when you figure out that 1 refferal a day to 10 pages is better than 10 refferals a day to 1 page.

* You should use as many as these tips as possible without over-doing it, otherwise if you do use all the tips for a single page, chances are it'll turn into just spider bait instead of unique content.
