5. Write keyword rich content (including alternate tag text for images) with one major topic per page
6. Write short, descriptive, inviting title tags
7. Write description and keyword meta tags so that individual pages content is summarised
8. Design (and test) a CSS page layout that is cross-browser compatible
9. Create a favicon.ico file that will be displayed in the address bar
