BEST MARKETING FOR WEBSITE INCREASES TRAFFICWritten by Donna Hassell
I am sure you have seen a lot of offers on Internet promising to submit your web page to 500 or more Search Engines for a fee up to $375.00 or more. First of all, there are not 500 Search Engines on Internet. There are only about 35 Prime Search Engines. Search Engines send out electronic spiders to roam Internet web looking for web pages with keyword listed in browser. The spiders find keywords, that closely match, stored in indexed databases throughout web and deliver results in rank of relevance. Search Engines search through their own database as well as world wide web.The promise to submit your web page to 500 Search Engines contains indexed database websites, cataloged by subject. The search return results on these particular websites are from their own indexed database and not world wide web. These websites may not be well known to average customer. Submitting your web page to cataloged websites may not prove to be worth your while nor money from an advertising point of view. If you want to generate hits to your site, best process you can do for your web page is to MANUALLY submit your web page to each Search Engine. Submittal Services can submit your web page URL to Search Engines with an automatic submittal software for a fee. They could not submit MANUALLY because it would take them too many hours to do this for each customer. Obviously, it would not be profitable for them. When you manually submit to each Search Engine, you will receive an email notification from each Search Engine that your submittal has been received. Each Search Engine reserves right to choose which URL appear in their database. Most of your major Search Engines will not even take an automatic software submittal. They prefer MANUAL submittals only. You have a much better chance getting into their databases by MANUALLY typing in each submittal. To achieve a better chance at getting your website listed in search returns, read instructions of each Search Engine and MANUALLY type each submittal. You may have greatest website on Internet, but if it is not submitted properly to Search Engines, traffic you long for will not occur. Now that web page achieved a listing in indexed databases of Search Engines, check once a month into each database to make sure you remain listed. As I stated before, Search Engines reserve right to choose which URL appear in their database and eliminating your URL for no apparent reason can occur. Never duplicate your web page submittals to Search Engines continually because this is very irritating to them and they will drop your submittal. Should you discover your web page eliminated from database, manually submit your URL again.
| | Stop Being a Baby ! Or Learning how to market on the web...Written by Otto Collins
When we decided we wanted to put a site up on web we thought, Man, this is great--now that we've got a web site, people are going to flock to our web site, get to know us and our ideas on how to create outstanding relationships and, as saying goes, rest will be history. That wasn't exactly so. Why Not? Like anything else in life, when marketing on web, there are certain "irrefutable laws" that if followed, are sure to bring you success. The trouble was when we first started on web we didn't know what marketing "laws" were that would work regardless of who tried them. My suggestion to anyone just starting out on web who wants to be successful is to do what we did and "Stop being a baby!" When we first started out we were literally just like a baby. On web, using metaphor of baby, we couldn't talk and we couldn't walk. In plain English-- we needed help and we knew it. If you are new to web (or marketing for that matter) here are some suggestions that will get you started in right direction. Stop Being a Baby ! When a baby is small, its needs must be constantly attended to. It need to continually learn and grow to be able to take care of itself properly. When we all first start out on web this is way we all are-helpless and ignorant. To become competent marketers on web requires us to seek out experts and learn everything we can from people who have done it. Learning to market on web is no different than needing to learn anything. The Internet is changing so fast that you don't have time to learn it all by yourself. You need help. Seek out experts. Visit their web sites, join their newsletter lists, get involved in marketing forums and discussions. And finally buy and study as many Internet marketing courses as are necessary to bring you up to level of knowledge that will help you be successful. We've bought and learned greatly from books and Internet courses from so called gurus like Ken Evoy, Marty Foley, Corey Rudl, Marlon Sanders,Micheal Campbell, Dr.Jeffrey Lant, Patrick Anderson and Micheal Henderson. The information we learned from them has taken months off our learning curve.
