SEO Logic Search Engine Marketing FAQ > Keyword Optimization - Individual Words or Phrases? Content Jump to Navigation Search Engine Marketing FAQ Answers to some of the thousands of questions asked by marketing executives who attended the AMA 's first free Web seminar, "Why Can't My CEO Find Our Website" Do search engines distinguish between keyword phrases and individual keywords in the meta keywords tag? Should I duplicate keywords in similar phrases, e.g. entering "historical research, historical writing" as opposed to just "historical, research, writing?" There are two questions here, one asked and one unasked. First, we'll adress the question about whether to use individual keywords or keyword phrases in your meta tags . Then we'll address the unasked question, "Do I have a chance to win for either 'historical research' or 'historical writing' with a page about both historical research and historical writing?" Keyword Optimization: Individual Words or Phrases? Consider two pages which simply feature large images, for example, pictures of two charts. The first page has the following meta keywords tag (1) <meta name="keywords" content="keyword analysis, keyword optimization">

Miller 2113 JSFB; Hrs: T/ Th , 1:15-2:30pm, and class time miller@byu.edu http://history.byu.edu/fac/miller/ Description and Objectives Writing history is to reduce our chaotic past, so filled with events, people, and ideas, to something orderly and meaningful. And that is your primary task for this course, to produce a piece of original history based on primary sources, to finally contribute something of your own to the historical record. After a brief remedial section on the basic points of research and writing that you learned in History 200, the first portion of the course will consist of a short seminar on environmental history. We hope to accomplish this by reading a couple books and various articles that will serve as examples of the range of topics open to you, serve as models of how environmental history is done, and make plain what sources have been used in this field. Your thesis must be on an environmental topic, but it can fit into any time or place in history. During this portion of the course, it will be your responsibility to find both primary sources and a topic, and you'll have to move quickly. Much of the rest of the course will be done without the usual professorial whip over your head. Class will meet occasionally, to provide deadlines, but not so often as to get in your way. Most instruction will be one on one in my office.

46. History 506:402 Section 11 The same criteria apply a project of fiction as to a standard research paper. In reading through writing historical Fiction, the following issues struck http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~triner/fiction.htm

Writing a piece of historical fiction may be more fun for you, and offer an opportunity to work more expansively than you would if you choose to write a standard research paper. However, if you decide to write historical fiction for this seminar you need to take into account a few guidelines: The work must derive from, and communicate to the reader, historical circumstance. In order for this to happen, you must engage in the same volume and depth of research as you would for a standard research paper. Therefore, you will need to: Provide a bibliography indicating the primary and secondary sources that you have used; Footnote your written work to indicate where/how you come to your characterizations, facts and interpretations. Conversational grammar and vocabulary may be colloquial to reflect your understanding of the spoken language of your setting and time period. However, the general writing guidelines for the course still apply. The determination for citations and writing style inevitably involve judgement, and the issues in producing fiction are more fluid than in non-fiction. In order to not compromise the fiction you produce, we can work together if we anticipate language, citation or formatting problems arising. For example, rather than having standard academic footnotes, you can write a short bibliographic essay. In this essay, you would simply establish the primary and secondary sources you used, and where you used the information from your sources. If you prefer to use footnotes, you may do so.

The Craft Craft Index Writing Historical Fiction Introduction In this session, Whitbread award-winning novelist Rose Tremain ( Restoration Sacred Country ) looks at the issues around writing and publishing historical fiction. Historical fiction is a type of genre fiction. Though all fiction can be classified into types or genres, genre fiction (romance, science fiction, crime, etc.) shares elements of plot or characterisation across all authors. It is often derided as inferior literature, though the difference between a Raymond Chandler or Ian Rankin detective story and their pale imitations is clear from the depth of themes and the care taken in the writing. Taking facts and characters from history and turning them into fiction has its pitfalls. Historical fiction often spotted on the racks at the charity shop ranges from bonkbuster bodice-rippers to war sagas. What approach will take you into the realms of the greats? This session includes: Why Historical Fiction?

Writing a [Historical] Book Review Writing a book review as an assignment in a history course has at least four important objectives (1) effective writing, (2) a substantive knowledge about a particular historical topic, (3) an understanding of the nature and use of historical research, and (4) an ability to think critically about the work of others,A typical summary "book report" can at best teach only the first two competencies. A book review goes beyond mere summary to inquire into the overall worth of a book. There are six steps to preparing a review of an historical work. With some modification, these steps also apply to writing reviews of other nonfiction works. Select a Book . Your instructor may provide a reading list, but if he does not, you will find that locating an appropriate work can be a very important part of the learning process. Start, of course, with the Suggested Readings after each chapter in the text and with the card catalog in your college library. Check standard bibliographies, and try consulting the footnotes or bibliographies of other works. When you locate a likely book, give it a "once over." Glance at the table of contents and the bibliography and read the prefatory material to make sure that the book is appropriate to your assignment. Ask yourself if the topic seems interesting, for you will probably write a better review if you have some affinity for the subject. Most importantly, talk to your instructor. S/he has read many books and has probably graded hundred of reviews, so seek him/her out for advice.

WRITING HISTORICAL ESSAYS: AN INTRODUCTION by Jim Schmidt Spring 2002 edition PREFACE As you begin to read this booklet, you may be wondering to yourself, "Why am I reading a writing manual in a history class"? As student, you have a right to ask such a question, and as a teacher, I have the obligation to answer it. You are reading this manual, for the most part, so that you will have a clear idea of what I expect of you in fulfilling a main component of all my classes: Before I begin, however, I would like to note a few caveats in the way this manual is presented, caveats that come under the old cliche, "Do as I say, not as I do." In general, I have adopted the style usually used in how-to books. So, I address the reader directly, using the first person ("I") and the second person ("you"); I rely heavily on one source for one long section; and I maintain an outline style with frequent subheadings. Let me make it quite clear that you should not use this style in a formal essay. Part I. History, Historians, and Historical Writing A.

Keep a core list of sites at your disposal through bookmarks that you trust so you can check or validate any information you find. In addition to facts and figures, historical websites can also be a source for detailed information about the living conditions and lifestyles in a given time period. This article will guide you to some of the best general historical resources and sites from which you can find more historical resources on your own.

You may also want to select a particular span of years on which to focus. Read letters written by the subject of your biography, as well as comments about the person in other people's letters (for example, many of Giles Thomas' letters include information about Uriah Oblinger; sometimes, as in the months following Mattie's death, these comments provide insights into Uriah's actions that are not available in his own letters).

window.defaultStatus="Department of History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge" Department of History and Philosophy of Science RESEARCH METHODS GUIDE HOME SEARCH CONTACT Tools and Techniques for Historical Research Jim Secord If you are just starting out in HPS, this will be the first time for many years - perhaps ever - that you have done substantial library or museum based research. The number of general studies may seem overwhelming, yet digging out specific material relevant to your topic may seem like finding needles in a haystack. Before turning to the specific entries that make up this guide, there are a few general points that apply more widely. Planning your research Before beginning detailed work, it's obviously a good idea to read some of the secondary literature surrounding your subject. The more general books are listed on the reading lists for the Part II lecture courses, and some of the specialist literature is listed in these research guides. This doesn't need to involve an exhaustive search, at least not at this stage, but you do need to master the fundamentals of what's been done if you're going to be in a position to judge the relevance of anything you find. If there are lectures bein g offered in your topic, make sure to attend them; and if they are offered later in the year, try to see if you can obtain a preliminary bibliography from the lecturer. After that, it's usually a good idea to immerse yourself in your main primary sources as soon as possible. If you are studying a museum object, this is the time to look at it closely; if you're writing about a debate, get together the main papers relevant to it and give them a close read; if you're writing about a specific experiment, look at the published papers, the laboratory notebook, and the relevant letters. Don't spend hours in the early stages of research ferreting out hard-to-find details, unless you're absolutely positive that they are of central importance to the viability of your topic. Start to get a feel for the material you have, and the questions that might be explored further. Make an outline of the main topics that you hope to cover, organized along what you see as the most interesting themes (and remember, 'background' is not usually an interesting theme on its own).
