Adding Your Web
Site To Internet Search Engines and Directories
If you do not submit your web pages to
search engines and directories, you will never get any traffic to speak
of. You more than likely came to this web site from a search engine or
directory where you were searching for keywords or a phrase to describe
what you wanted to find. Or you browsed through a category in an Internet
directory. Well, that is exactly how other people are going to find your
web site and you have to add your url (web address) to these search
engines and directories before they will even know your web pages exist.
Before you submit your web page to the
search engines, make sure you have added meta tags
to your pages. Meta tags help the search engines index your web page.
Use unique meta tags for each page of your site, making sure that you are
describing the contents of that page. The search engines place a lot of
importance on the content of your page and how that page matches up with
your meta tags. Get PrePromote free to help
with your meta tags.
You also need to be aware that most of your
search engines may take quite a long time before they add your web site
even after you submit it to them. So, you need to start submitting as soon
as you have your web pages up on the Internet. The Internet directories
are quicker about getting you listed. On the directory sites, you normally
have to go to the category that your web page should be in to add your
site.
