Each search engine has a different way of deciding how to rank web pages. Some prefer keywords in the TITLE TAG section of your website coding. Others prefer links with keywords in them. Others prefer keywords within certain sections of your website title or body of text. Others prefer pages with a large number of relevant websites linking to them. Other search engines prefer a combination of these and more!

You can quickly see that pleasing each different search engine is a time consuming task. But there's more.

When you alter your website coding to match the requirements of a particular engine, you will do it for a particular keyword only (eg. "gardening equipment"). But if you want to target another keyword (eg. "outdoor landscaping") then you may need to prepare another web page with coding to suit that particular keyword. Then you need to alter it for each search engine again.

You also need to put safeguards in place to make sure that the search engines don't pick up on your several similar pages and consider banning you for "spamdexing".
