sirhc Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Jack, You can get some software which submits your website to the search engines. You can set this up to do it every week, 2 weeks etc. The best way to get up the rankings is to make sure you have all the correct mata tags, keywords etc. Search google for this topic, there's been plenty written about it. I spent a long time trying to get some websites I was working on up the rankings. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Daymond Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 I think the site does ok anyway for hits, just type hmvf into google to see what I mean. I promoted the company website, where I work, it comes on page 1 of google, and recently has appeared no.1 - no.4 in the page listing. What you need are other sites that have a link for you, combined with hits from visitors. It might help if members tried to hit (visit) this site by first searching for it through google, rather than simply using a 'favourite' link? I believe this reinforces with the google search engine that the most relevant search, and most popular, for hmvf, is the corresponding link to this website. When I'm at work, because I can't save the website as a favourite on my pc, and also because I can't bothered to type the address in ( I know it's only short) I search for hmvf in google, then hit the link that comes up. You can manually enter the site's URL into Google, Yahoo etc by going onto their search pages and typing a search for 'web page submission' this should bring up the relevant links for google and yahoo etc. I found that the programmes that do it for you, end up bombarding the email address you have to give them, with spam, so I would avoid them. Also, you can do very well without spending any money, you get enough visitors here anyway, so hits shouldn't be a problem. Also, if you think that other words such as 'military', or GMC, or pink cushion :whistle: may be terms that potential visitors might use to find this sort of a website, than those are the keywords that you need to promote a link to this site with. I.e. at the moment, if I want to find this site, I type hmvf into google, google returns searches for me, the most popular happens to be this site, I click on the link, and along with visiting this site, I also reinforce the site as a relevant search result for the term 'hmvf'. Where I work, for a coach company in Leeds, Ridings Coaches, I realised that hardly anyone would search for us by company name. So I thought of all the likely search terms that people would likely use to search for coach hire, in and around the Leeds area for example. The most likely phrase was 'coach hire leeds' which along with several other phrases, became the keywords I began to promote. Typing the phrase 'coach hire leeds' should show my company website on the first page, pretty near the top. What you could do, is to think of the phrases people might use to find a site such as this, then incorporate those words into the first paragraph of the opening page. Also, as mentioned by a previous poster, you need whoever does the web pages, to insert the same keyword phrases into the meta names on the pages you want to be found. This is easier than it sounds. To view a pages names (or tags to be correct) on the page you are viewing select view (it's up on the toolbar at the top) then scroll down to 'source', you can then view the code of the page in question. To alter the tags/names, you will need to use the publishing program that you compiled the pages with. thats my twopenneth any way :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
