SEARCH ENGINE SUBMISSION OVERVIEW
Getting your site on top of search engines and
keeping it there requires alot of work. There are
many search engines on the internet, all of which
require you to manually submit your site to in order
to get listed. Some search engines offer free submission,
others require payment before listing your site. |
|
SEARCH ENGINE OPTIONS
Submitting your site to search engines can be
a daunting task for those who are new to online
business. Most of the popular search engines and
directories (MSN, Yahoo, Google, Altavista, etc.)
require a minimal fee for reviewing your site and
listing it in their search database. These search
engines usually offer other types of paid advertising
as well, including banner ads and keyword matches
that guarantee your site comes up first when someone
types your specified keyword(s).
Other Online Advertising methods:
• Banner exchanges
• Paid advertisements
• Free online directories |

PAY-PER-CLICK SERVICES (GOOGLE
ADWORDS, OVERTURE)
PPC (pay-per-click) services offer advertisements
which display a large link to your site in a side-bar
when certain keywords are searched for. You then
only pay when someone clicks on the link to your
site. Each click usually costs you around $0.25
and you are allowed to place a daily price cap.
Google Adwords and Overture are the most popular
PPC services. |
|
THE POWER OF INCOMING LINKS
Many of the major search engines base a large
part of your ranking on the number of incoming links,
to your site. In other words, you will get a higher
page rank if you have many quality* sites that are
linking to your site. This means you should submit
your website to as many free directories and search
engines as you can.
*A quality site already shows up well on search
engines. |
