Now that we have seen what 'foreign terrain' looks like and how accessible and exciting it really is, let us look at how to take our web site abroad easily. This is a three-step process.

Step one is to get together all our keywords in English. Make a list of all words and phrases that people mostly use to find you on search engines. Once you have this list, go to some free online translation sites and translate your list into all necessary languages. You can translate them free using machine translation services, although for better accuracy you would want to pay for human translation. The site mentioned above has a free tool that brings about 30 languages together. To start with, translate into French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. There are free machine translators on web for all these languages.

Step two is to have these translated keywords on your site. There are three ways of doing that:

The easiest and cheapest way is free. It is not as effective, but it is far better than doing nothing. All you do is insert these translated keywords into your site pages title tag (very important) and Meta keywords and description tags, plus in body text and headlines of your pages. That alone is far better than having a 100 English site.

The other thing that you can do is still more effective. This is making pages for each language. The cheapest way to do that is to use these free machine translators online to translate each of your web pages. That translation will not be too accurate but it is good enough. Better accuracy is achievable through human translation services. Once you have all your pages translated, be sure to link them together from your home page. By way, instant translators described above are great for giving speakers of a wide variety of languages instant local language translations of your site, but because these translate on fly, they do not help in your foreign search engine efforts. Only static built pages are indexed.

The best effectiveness is obviously achieved if you can make a page optimized for each keyword and for each language. These are optimized doorways in each language and keyword - and their effectiveness is just as great as effectiveness of English doorways. The easiest way to attack such a task is to use a combination of free translation services we have talked about and doorway generation software such as one at www.PositionWeaver.com. What you would then need to do is to make up a long paragraph text in English, translate that along with your keywords, then plug them into PositionWeaver or similar software and in minutes you have optimized pages in any language of your choice!

Step three in our strategy is to submit our new multilingual site to not only usual English search engines, but also to foreign search engines. Many of big English engines have localized editions and if they don't they still index foreign language pages. The foreign engines also exist, although you may never have heard of them. Do not assume that all Germans or Japanese, for example, use Google, AltaVista and Hotbot like you do. They may never even have heard of these, preferring to use their own engines. Do some research into this to find out what each country or peoples use. You can submit to these engines but of course because users primarily search in their language, a purely English site would be totally lost in them. But luckily, now you know how not to be purely English.

Well, then, my great explorer friend! Go out and conquer foreign lands for your financial gain. I wish you great enjoyment in your adventures! Adios!

Result, they won't list it in directories and also Ban main URL from any further searches.

Granted, not all traffic comes from search engines. Depending upon particular search engine and how high your site is in listings, you can get as much as 30 % or more of your traffic from search engines.

How can you overcome this deficit in search engine exposure ?

Even though search engines are ignoring your replicated website, there is a way to get traffic from them.

The solution is to build a separate page on your domain or have someone build one for you on their domain. Your page title, description, and keywords can then be optimized and submitted to search engines.

The search engines will then consider your page as valid content and will list it in their directory. The connection here is that special page that you've built will have links directing visitors to your replicate site.

Wala ! You have visitors from Alta Vista, Lycos, Hot Bot, Google, and much too many more to name here.
