Forget About Submitting To Hundreds of Search Engines
Now I know many people will say what? That goes against
everything most have learned. You start a website then submit to
search engines. That is something we need to do and something
that is very important but it's not the most important and not
the only thing we need to do.
We do need to submit to the search engines, but you should not
pay to submit to hundred's and thousands of search engines.
Think about it, there are only a handful of popular search
engines. You've never heard of the other thousand engines, so
chances are millions of other people have never heard of them
either. So why pay $50 or more to a company who claims they will
get you top spot in a bunch of search engines that most people
won't use.
You can be the only website listed in that engine and it
wouldn't matter. If no one is there to search on it, then they
can't find you now can they? There are also businesses claiming
that they will get you into google, yahoo, msn, and other
popular search engines in 24 hours. Those claims are hard
because I don't know the methods or if they are even ethical,
but most popular search engines, especially google, can take
weeks and months to get into and it's hard to say whether or not
this company is actually telling the truth about letting you in.
There are many ways to get your website out there. After
submitting to the top search engines, search for popular
directories and submit your website. This can be more time
consuming because there are hundreds of directories. Start
with
yahoo and dmoz directories. They are two of the most popular
ones. There are also software in which you can submit to
directories semi-automatically. Not fully automatic because most
directories need you to fill in information that the softwares
usually can't.
Another tip for getting your website noticed is to get a budget
you can live with and advertise with adwords. If you do it right
you can be spending less money than if you go with an
advertising company. They can cost hundred's and thousands of
dollars.
The most important one, but the hardest is getting sites to link
in. Linking in means that other websites have a link to your
website. It's really good because if this site is in high
standing with google, yahoo, alexa and has a good page rank,
then google will take notice that and your page rank can go up.
Doing this is hard because you need to find similar websites
that aren't direct competition and see if they will place a link
on their site or trade links, or even sell a little ad space. If
you ask 20 websites, then realistically only 1 in that 20 might
say yes. So like I said it's difficult. Also only trade or get
linked in with sites that complement yours. If you sell clothes
you shouldn't link to a site that sells car parts. That will
only hurt you with the search engines.
