You can better your website’s ranking list with search engines such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo just by registering your website with them? Did you also know that website promotion companies charge for this simple task?
Let’s say that you created a website on GoDaddy or Rackspace or any other website hosting service.
The Problem: After a week or so of having a web presence, your site never comes up in searches.
The Solution: Any time that you create a website, it is imperative that you register your site with the major search engines. Search engines have forms that you can fill out and paste in your URL and any keywords. Once you have submitted these forms, you must wait a given amount of time (days or weeks) for the information to be added to the search engine’s database and for the web spider to crawl through your site. Once that is complete, you are moved up in the rankings and there is more of a chance for internet users to find your site when entering search terms that your website contains.
Additional Tips: Ensure that all hyperlinks on your website function properly. If the spider finds a broken link it will move your website down in the rankings. Periodically check for broken links since website pages sometimes get moved or removed. If you code your website; adding keywords to your images that reflect your services help as well as adding keywords to the META tag.
