Here are tips to ensure that your website or blog get ranked the highest.

Step 1: Find the best keywords
Keywords are the words that web surfers enter in search engines to find websites. It's pointless to optimize your web pages for keywords that nobody uses in the search engines. For a successful online marketing campaign, you must target the right keywords. The keywords you use should be relevant for your website and web surfers should be searching for your keywords.
 
If you target the wrong keywords, your website promotion efforts will be in vain and you will waste a lot of time and money.

There are three different keyword types: keywords for browsing, keywords for comparing and keywords for buying. Keywords for comparing are usually the keywords that work best for search engine optimization. People who use that keyword type are looking for a solution to their problem and they are ready to buy. To get best results with your search engine optimization efforts, you should concentrate on that keyword type.
Many facilities or free tools to find the best keywords, such as that provided on Google Insight For Search and Google Adword Keyword Tools.

Step 2: Optimize your web pages
By optimizing your web pages, you tell search engines for which keywords you want to be found. If you do not optimize your web pages, then search engines won't list your website or they will list it for the wrong keywords. Optimizing your web pages makes sure that your website can get high rankings for the keywords of your choice.

High rankings on Google and other search engines are the result of optimized web page content and good incoming links. Start with optimizing your web page content.

By optimizing your web page content, you tell search engines for which keywords you want to be found. Search engines can only give your web page a high ranking for a certain keyword if your web page is relevant to that keyword. Make sure that your web pages don't have major HTML code errors that prevent search engines from indexing your site.

Keyword meta tags are very important presence, because it determines "keywords" that can find the web page / blog link on the search results. Enter your keywords and keyword phrases for your webpage. Separate each keyword or keyword phrase with a comma or a space separator.

Links are one of the most important factors for high search engine rankings. It is not possible to get high search engine rankings without good incoming links. The idea behind this concept is that search engines think that your website must be important if many other websites link to your site. The more other websites link to your website, the higher your search engine rankings will be.

High rankings on Google and other search engines are the result of optimized web page content and good incoming links. You need both to get high search engine rankings. The number of links alone is not enough to improve your search engine rankings. It is also important that the other websites are related to your website. If the links to your website include your important keywords in the link text, then it's easier to get high rankings for these keywords.

• COIN-OR: COmputational INfrastructure for Operations Research. Includes optimization software, heuristics, and more.
• Gnumeric: a spreadsheet with built-in solvers GLPK and lp_solve.
• GLPK: linear and integer programming, including a parser for a subset of AMPL.
• GOBLIN: Graph Object Library for Network Programming Problems. Includes a C++ library for graph optimization as well as a graph browser and editor.
• OpenForecast: I have not used this, but it looks promising.
• FLOPC++: An algebraic modelling language implemented as a C++ class library.
• Zimpl: language to translate the mathematical model of a problem into a linear or (mixed-) integer mathematical program expressed in .lp or .mps file format.
• Cliquer: routines for clique searching.

Mathematical/statistical applications

• R: statistics, graphics, and more. Similar to S-plus (both are based on the language S).
• Maxima: computer algebra, similar to Mathematica or Maple.
• Octave: matrix based mathematics, similar to and "mostly compatible" with MATLAB.
• GNU Scientific Library: C library for mathematical functions, including random variables, statistics, linear algebra, and lots more.
• PSPP: similar to SPSS. It is not too far along in its development, however.

Manufacturing

• Qcad: 2-dimensional CAD. Only the X11 version is open-source and even then only when released as source code (so you have to compile it yourself). If you are in Pitt's School of Engineering and are interested in trying this product, I am willing to help compile it from source so you don't have to license the binary version. On the other hand, paying a small fee for the convenience of binaries may be worthwhile if you want to support the project.
• OpenCascade: 3-dimensional modeling.
• OpenFEM: finite element analysis.
• iCivilEngineer list of open-source software: includes additional CAD, finite element analysis, and more.

Mahara is a fully featured open source electronic portfolio, weblog, resume builder and social networking system, connecting users and creating online communities. Mahara provides you with the tools to create a personal and professional learning and development environment.

What makes Mahara different from other ePortfolio systems is that you control which items and what information (Artefacts) within your portfolio other users see.

In order to facilitate this access control, all Artefacts you wish to show to other users need to be bundled up and placed into one area. Within Mahara this compilation of selected Artefacts is called a View.

You can have as many Views as you like, each with a different collection of Artefacts, and intended purpose and audience. Your audience, or the people you wish to give access to your View, can be added as individuals or as a member of a Group or Community.

ePortfolio owners create Views using a 4 step process and Views have the following features:

• ePortfolio owners can receive public or private feedback on their View and Artefacts within that View.
• Users accessing a View can report any objectionable material directly to the Site Administrator.
• Users can add Views and Artefacts within a View to their Watchlist and receive automated notifications of any changes or updates.
• ePortfolio owners can Submit a View for Assessment by a tutor or teacher allowing for a snapshot of the View and associated Artefacts on a certain date.
