Latent Semantic Indexing It is a new concept that converts the natural human language words into mathematical language that is easily understood by computers. The online marketing competition is getting intense with each passing day as more and more business owners are turning their attention to net, to increase their business revenues.

The stiffer competition has made it necessary to develop a new means of web access, to rank the websites as per their quality. Employing LSI Keywords to stay at the top of the search engine results is a part of this new concept.

What Are LSI Keywords? Normally the search engine follows the main keyword and takes note of its density and placement in the content body. This is a narrow and constricted approach that basically depends upon single keyword to track the site or page and in process limits the search potential of the search engine. The Latent Semantic Indexing overcomes this drawback by allowing the search engine to use LSI keywords, effectively to get higher page ranking.

So how many queries that came to me over the transom actually resulted in a published story? None. I received hundreds of queries that year, and not a single one was remotely on target. I found my own freelancers. So how do you avoid egregious query gaffes? Tailor your pitches. One size never fits all. Find out what your editors are looking for. If they're not listed in Writer's Market, do some legwork. Even if they are, listings go quickly out of date. Get a copy of the publication you're pitching. Research its archives.

Listings can be helpful, but don't rely on them exclusively. Remember that many other editors have had experiences similar to mine. They don't bother to list themselves in compilations of the publishing market.

You have to do your own research. Find out on your own whom to contact and what they're looking for. And please, please -- have a look at the mag or site before you pitch.
