Many think reason is because Firefox, new popular browser, has introduced some key features that many surfers have come to expect. This probably has put pressure on Microsoft to respond with a browser with same specs.

One of these key features is tabbed browsing, which allows you to browse to multiple sites using just one window with tabs rather than opening a new window for each page.

But tabbed browsing isn't all...

I am really excited about possibility of a new feature that could change way web-surfers get their content!

Although there has been no formal announcement about this, there has been a lot of speculation about new browser including a built-in RSS reader.

An RSS what???

Let me explain...

RSS has taken off like a rocket. Blog sites love it, and every major website out there now supports it including CNN, ESPN, Yahoo, Google, and MSN.

RSS is nothing more than a format for delivering article headlines that can be read and neatly displayed by RSS readers, much like an email program displays email messages.

That's how so many business owners feel, they spend a bit of money on their website design and then sit, doing nothing, waiting in vain for it to start paying dividends and bringing in customers.

It's very simple really, nobody is going to come to your new site if they don't know about it - if they don't see mention of it, a link to it or aren't recommended it.

So how can you get your website noticed? Here's a list of common methods you can use:

• Traditional Ads & Marketing
• Search Engines
• Online Directories
• Links Development Campaign
• Participation in Online Discussion Forums
• Article Submission
• Pay Per Click
• Banner Ads

Traditional Marketing Magazine & newspaper ads, Yellow Pages, PR articles, leaflets & door drops, business cards, email signatures, company stationary, company vehicles, front of your store. These and many more are places you can and should advertise your website's URL.

Search Engines Getting to top of a keyword search on major search engines - Google, Yahoo etc. - is high on wish list of most website owners. Unfortunately it's not something that will happen straightaway. It can take many months of adding content, getting links from other sites and optimising your content for keywords to get a high listing.

Online Directories Directories are collections of website addresses that are collated by human beings. Most will charge a fee for inclusion, DMOZ/ODP is one everyone wants to get listed in - it's free and will have a great effect on your search engine ranking, but expect to wait months if not years for a listing.

Links Development This is one of most powerful ways of promoting your site. It means getting other (hopefully related) sites to include links to yours. To get a link simply email site owners and ask for one. Often you'll have to reciprocate kindness i.e. link to their site as well but some will be happy to list your URL for nothing.
