What Do Search Engines Like Google See?
What Does Google Look At? An easier answer might be, 'what does Google not look at.'
Basicly, Google tries to read pages like we do. Top left to the bottom right. Things on top must be importanat ("Realivant") and things at the bottom might not be important, unles it's the last thing you write about, that could confirm, if matched, that the top things are indeed important.
Google can see text (html text that is), but not text on a graphic (yet). We know that Google is playing with ways to reconize images and maybe read text on images, but as far as we know now, they can not.
Google will read image 'Tags,' a page code meant to help search engines know what's on a graphic.
What search engine do see besides text and tags are, image names, url names, header text, meta tags, page titles, in-bound and out-bound links and anchor text AND NOW they look at social website's. They'll use social content to help rank your website. What people are saying about you and what your saying about yourself now counts in the eyes of Google. Also, although they can't read videos, they love videos. Search engines can read video names and text around them and they know a video is there, so video is now considered very important. Google can not read flash very well, but there are some ways to help Google out with this too, just like the image tags.
