Top search engine placement is vital to
online success:
According to Forrester
Research, 81% of consumers find websites via a search engine. A
study at
Excite.com revealed that more than 70% of users looked at two pages
of search results or fewer.
Banner ads are proven to be ineffective and the cost of traditional
advertising is too expensive
and ineffective for many small and medium size businesses. Search
engine marketing and top search
engine placement are proven to be cost effective ways to reach and
attract qualified potential customers.
A recent study into search engine traffic has
shown that the amount of referring traffic from search engines has nearly
doubled! WebSideStory Inc. the creators of HitBox, a marketing
analysis tool, have released this information over the past week.
WebSideStory's division of global Internet user trends, StatMarket,
have shown that 13.4 percent of global referrals have come
from the search engines. This is a significant jump from the
previous year's stats that were at 7.1 percent.
StatMarket collects information from websites that currently use
HitBox for stats. The study of global referrals consisted of
over 125,000 sites using the award winning business intelligence and
analytical HitBox technology.
The current trend in the study indicates that users
are becoming more efficient with their usage of the web. View the
stats below:
- Direct Navigation up 15%
- Web Links down 20%
- Search Engines up 6%
With these stats they say two things:
- Users are relying more heavily on search
engines for research
- Once a quality page is found, users will bookmark
and go there over and over again
With these points in mind, you have to ask
yourself, "Is my site in the major search engines?" If not
you would be crazy not to submit your site as soon as
possible. If your site isn't in the search engines, as the figures
state, people won't find your site.
Make sure your site is able to be found by submitting your
site to 300+ search engines including the majors using one of our submission
services below:

Engine Submission Fees
Search Engine Myths:
-
MYTH #1: The more
search engines that a web page is submitted to the
better! You've seen all the ads, or have received
emails from companies that boast they can submit your site to
hundreds - even thousands of search engines for a phenomenal
price - OR - an unbelievably low price!! BUYER
BEWARE! Don't get caught up in the hype. They
are not all bad, however, you have to know what to look for.
-
MYTH #2: Submit to the
Most Popular Search Engines FIRST and work your way
down! There actually is a logical order in which you
should be submitting your site. If you're unsure - not
to worry! We know the logical order and can optimize
your site specifically to how each individual search engine
rates, indexes and ranks your site.
-
MYTH #3: Automated
Submission Software & Services are Real Time Savers:
Not necessarily true. Some can actually penalize you
or get you banned from ever being listed on a particular
search engine. Problems which could potentially cost you
more time to fix, than manually submitting properly in the
first place.

What are
meta tags?
The Meta tag in html is not a required tag
when you're creating your web pages. The meta tag is used by
search engines to allow them to more accurately list your
site in their indexes. If you simply produce your home page
and register the URL with a search engine, or a number of
search engines, their spider programmes will eventually
visit your site to index it. Each of the search engines does
this slightly different. Altavista for example will grab
everything in your document and index it, but will only show
the first 250 characters in the description. Consequently,
if your site included say; 'Thanks to:....' right at the
beginning, this is what Altavista would show in it's
description, and it wouldn't give the viewer any idea of
what your site actually covered. Of course, not all search
engines work this way, I'd suggest you ferret around a
little bit to see exactly how the popular engines work, and
certainly the major search engines such as Altavista, Lycos,
Google, Infoseek and Excite. It therefore makes sense to
ensure that your opening paragraph is carefully written to
ensure it accurately reflects what your site covers. You
also may be able to exert a certain amount of control over
how your site is indexed by the use of the meta tag. (I
should however point out that not all search engines will
use this tag - Altavista does, but Excite doesn't, for
example. It's not a total cure-all therefore, but you won't
miss out by putting the tag in, and it may well work well in
some cases.

Don't spam the search engines
People are always trying to get their pages
high-ranked by cheating and adding in hundreds of repeated
keywords and words that don't pertain to the content of
their page. This is bad. The people who come to your page
expecting one thing only to get another are just going to be
upset that you tricked them and will leave. Apart from that,
search engines are getting much better at seeing this
happening and banning the pages they find trying to trick
them.

| The 5 Most Important Search
Engines to be listed in: The other
699,000 + do not matter because 97% of Internet users search using
the following 5 Search Engines.
According to Nielsen/NetRatings,
a company that measures the impact of the Internet and new
technologies on commerce and marketing, the top five search
engines during January of 2003 were Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL,
and Ask Jeeves. The rankings take into account the
percentage of the entire Internet population that visited
each site (audience reach) and the average number of minutes
spent per visitor at each site. These numbers were adjusted
to exclude non-search portal traffic such as email
retrieval.
1. Google
The number one ranked search engine according
to Nielsen/NetRatings was Google. Its audience reach was
29.5% and it had an average visit length of 28.5 minutes. To
confirm that your site is in the Google database go to the Google
search page and type your URL into the search
field.
2. Yahoo
Nielsen/NetRatings's number two ranked search
engine was Yahoo. Its audience reach was 28.9% and it had an
average visit length of 11.0 minutes. To confirm that your
site is in the Yahoo database go to the Yahoo
search page and type your URL into the search
field.
3. MSN
The number three ranked search engine
according to Nielsen/NetRatings
was MSN. Its audience reach was 27.6% and it had an average
visit length of 8.7 minutes. To confirm that your site is in
the MSN database go to the MSN
search page and type your URL into the search
field.
4. AOL
The fourth largest search engine in the
Nielsen/NetRatings study was AOL. Its audience reach was
18.4% and it had an average visit length of 38.8 minutes. To
confirm that your site is in the AOL database go to the AOL
search page and type your URL into the search
field.
5. Ask Jeeves
Rounding out Nielsen/NetRatings's top five
search engines was AskJeeves. Its audience reach was 9.9%
and it had an average visit length of 10.2 minutes. To
confirm that your site is in the Ask Jeeves database go to
the Ask
Jeeves search page and type your URL into the
search field.

SALE NOW!!
Why is Ongoing Promotion so Important? Many of our users (maybe you included)
do not have the time or
unfortunately can not afford the cost of
continual monthly promotion and have expressed
their concerns to us.
Why should web site owners not be able to afford
continual promotion for their web site? What is the
point in promoting your web site one month, having
great traffic, leads and sales and then lose all of it the
next month? It is just not right!!
We believe all users should be able to afford
continual web site promotion, and it should be
automatic without the web site owner having to do
anything, so we have come up with a quick and easy
solution!
We have slashed our "Submit ONGOING"
prices just for you (our clients)!!! And we've included Monthly Ranking
Reports for FREE!! ($45.00 value for each report).
You can now receive Submit ONGOING for just $50
for the first month then $60 every month
thereafter... instead of the normal price of $125
for the first month and $85 every month thereafter
(that's a saving of $75 for the first month and
then $25 every month thereafter)!!! Limited Time Offer - Sale ends
March 31, 2003!!
So what is Submit ONGOING?
Here is a Brief Explanation of Submit ONGOING:
Submit ONGOING powers your web site continually. The
best submission service if you wish to have your
web site take care of you. Wouldn't it be good if
your web site is featured prominently in Search
Engine "results" on a continual monthly basis?
Submit Ongoing is about adjusting and promoting
each web page in your entire web site (each page has
its own continuous cycle of web promotion and
targets its own specific keywords). This provides
a better chance for these relevant web pages (other
than just your homepage) to appear well in the
Search Engines "results page". Particularly useful
when visitors use "specific keyword searches".
