i’ve read a lot of articles on the subject already, is it basically just getting a lot of backlinks, optimize the meta tags and choosing the most effective keywords?

It also helps if a site with a high PR (PageRank) links to yours.
@Lotus9Oct 10.2005 — #To optimize for Google, just focus on getting a lot of backlinks with anchor text that includes your keywords. This is how you get higher rankings on Google. A good way to get these backlinks is by submitting to free directories or by link exchanging. MSN and Yahoo are more about keywords in your page titles, meta tags, and freshly updated content. ?
