> 1) Make sure the relevant words are in the title and the content
> 2) Make sure the keywords make up a high percentage of the content, and

> 3) Get other sites to link to the site in question
4) Include a link to your site map on relevant pages (such as the
homepage) to facilitate site crawling
5) Use valid and well structured HTML/XHTML
6) Submit site to directories
Wordtracker[1] is a very helpful research/keyword analysis tool.
I found "Search Engine Visibility" by Shari Thurow to be a very good
book.
Search Engine Watch[2] is an extremely helpful Web resource
