Submitting Your
Web Pages to Search Engines
This is perhaps the best known of the SEO steps, partly
because you see so many advertisements for bulk submission to
hundreds, or even thousands of Web sites. These services stay
in business because people are attracted to the promise of a
single-click, silver bullet solution. Unfortunately,
submission is only one part of the process, and a minor one at
that. Most of the sites on these bulk submission lists are not
search engines at all, but simply scripts designed to gather
names and e-mail addresses from unsuspecting search engine
marketers. Only a relative handful of search engines command
enough traffic to be worth promoting to.
Submissions can be done by hand or via a submission tool.
We use a very supplicated submitting program that automatically
submits to some search engines. This tool is very search
engine friendly and as closely as possible emulates the manual
submitting process to search engines. it can help prevent you from
making common mistakes like over submitting, submitting
non-existent pages, losing track of what you have already
submitted, and so forth. It also gives you estimates regarding
how long it currently takes to get indexed at each engine, and
when re-submission is recommended. Once you build some
third-party links to your Web site, most engines like Google
will re-spider your pages regularly without the need to
re-submit.
The monthly reports we supply to you are very
important in this process. When you receive these reports it
clearly shows how the process is working. Once we obtain
position on a search engine we do not re-submit unless we are
falling badly in the rankings. Yes, that is true, just
because you obtain a good position it doesn't mean you will retain
that good position.
If your not showing good on a certain search
engine then we need to, tweak the page and submit again until we achieve
the desired results.
