Web Site Submission | Directory Submission

Have you ever asked any of these questions?

Do I pay for a Yahoo listing or try for a free one? 
Should I use a FFA site to submit?  (the answer is NEVER!) 
How do I get into Google? 
What is the Open Directory?
What Directories Should I submit my Website to? 

 

These are some of the questions associated with submitting websites to the search engines.  Things change all of the time; search engine marketing is a moving target and that is why you need an experienced team that keeps up with the changes at the search engines.

 

We will mange your submissions to search engines, directories, and specialty portals, all of which contribute to a successful web marketing campaign and increase your inbound links and relevance in the search engines.
 

Regarding Yahoo, we recommend paying in most cases to be included, especially if you are launching a new website.  It will be featured as a new site, but it will also kick things off quicker and list you in the directory as opposed to just listing you in the “spidered” search database.

 

What is an FFA site?  It is a “Free For All” site promoted by “wanna-be” search marketers.  If you ever hear of anyone offering to send you “thousands of visitors to your website”, or “submitting your site to thousands of search engines” - RUN!  These sites are used mostly by “get rich quick” business promoters, and will not generate any valid traffic.  Ok, maybe a little, but nothing in comparison to the spam it will generate.

 

How do you get into Google?  That is simple.  If you get listed in a few relevant websites and directories, Google will find your website in a very short time.   The real question is “How do I GET TRAFFIC from Google?”  This is where you need a specialist.  Google ranks sites using its own ranking algorithm, and it is heavily weighted on the amount of incoming links from other relevant sites.  The answer to the question is to have a well optimized site, with strong relevant content, AND links to your site from other (reputable) sites; ideally those that already rank well in Google.

 

What is the Open Directory?  This is a directory (also known as DMOZ) that distributes its listings to other web sites and directories. It used to be a considered a valuable directory to be listed in, but has lost it's credibility due to mismanagement and now contains lots of outdated websites.  For the most part, it is all but disregarded by search marketing professionals (to the shame of AOL, it's parent company).
