Super Search Engine Marketing

Once you have completed the various other tasks the next thing to do is to get yourself into the search engines.  First ones are the big ones.

Google, manditory and easy to do.  If you go to google and look around you will find a link that allows you to submit a site to them.  Once that is done eventually google will get around to indexing your site… sooner or later if you search for your domain name you will find it.

Yahoo, manditory and easy to do.  There are two types of submissions you can make to Yahoo.  One is a regular free submission which like google once they get around to you they will index your site.  The other is a annual fee you can pay for inclusion into their directory.  Some swear by paying for inclusion in the directory part of Yahoo as key to getting high ranks with Yahoo.  As I look at it unless your making lots of money off of your website there are other ways to get into yahoo that are more effective than their directory submission.

MSN, manditory and again easy to do.  MSN like google offers a way to present a new website to them which eventually they will get around to indexing and offering up in searches.

You must wait until your site is up and operating before you register with a search engine. No pages that are under construction or empty of content.  You can have blank pages or incomplete pages, just do not link them to the live part of the site until they are ready to go.

There are other directory’s / search engines out there and if you run across one your not in, you should register yourself. In another article I will explain how you can get yourself into almost a thousand directories which will help to increase your Page Rank on the major search egines.
