LSI or Latent Semantic Indexing is the focus of all webmasters who are looking for associated phrases to their web site theme.
LSI is very interesting in that it not only associate known synonyms withe words, but phrases with ‘synonym phrases‘. These phrases are not as defined in a dictionary, but rather as people (like you and me) associate the phrases with each other.
An example of latent sematic indexing is a search in Google for ‘fibreglass moulds’ and not so strangely the phrase ’small business’ is accociated with the term. Initially I thought is was VERY strange, and after while realized that that is what other ‘normal’ people would sometimes associate it with.
Following are other interesting articles on LSI.
Keyword Density Disappears When LSI Appears. There has been much talk lately of Latent Semantic Indexing - due in part to Google placing a higher relevancy to it in it’s algorithms, and consequently the hits and lower page rankings some webmasters encountered when Google instituted the change. Does it means keywords density is now dead?
LSI Forces WebsitesTo Better Content. Latent Semantic Indexing has changed as search algorithms have evolved. As a continual effort to “improve” searching, Google has employed a form of “latent” semantics into their indexing algorithm - and it’s called LSI. SEO must respond to LSI with better content and quality inbound links.
