3 Tips to Getting your site Indexed Quickly by Search Engines

Add to Technorati Favorites

Getting your Website indexed, or included, in search engine results depends on several factors. And those factors vary from search engine to search engine.

 

While you want to get your Website indexed by as many search engines as possible, the Web’s three largest search engines—Google, Yahoo, and MSN—are where you want to focus your efforts. Combined, these search engines account for more than 90% of the entire Web’s search traffic.

 

Getting indexed by Google, Yahoo, and MSN is harder than it used to be but it’s absolutely necessary to promoting yourself online. You may have the best Website with the best copywriting but you’ll be limiting your online promotion if you don’t get indexed properly.

Below are 3 tips to help you get your Website indexed by the “big 3″ search engines.

Tag Along 

The quickest way to get search engines to visit, and index, your site it to place a link on another site that’s already been indexed. If you know someone that has an established Website—and has for years—ask if you can place a link on their site. When the search engine bots visit your friend’s site, they’ll follow the link to your site.

 

The time it takes for the search engines to visit and index your site varies. If the site you’ve placed your link on is popular, you might get indexed in a few days. Otherwise it can take up to a few weeks.

How do you know if you’ve been indexed? Type the search term “site:www.yoursite.com”—without the quotes—into each search engine. If your pages show up in the results, you’re getting indexed.

How to Write a Sales Page

Add to Technorati Favorites

Once you have a product ready to sell online, you have to create the words and drive the traffic to make it happen. But, before you start marketing, you’ll need a sales page. Your sales page—even more than your product—will determine your success.

 

A great sales page with a mediocre product will far outsell a poor sales page with an excellent product.

Writing a sales page, then, is one of the most important steps of the process. It’s not hard but will take good planning and a lot of thought. Your sales page will not only need to grab your potential customer’s attention, it will have to make an honest case for your product and invite the reader to buy.

Most professional Internet marketers would agree that your headline is the most important part of your sales page.

Benefits sell, features tell. You’ll have to dig through your product and find a single, compelling benefit. Remember, you’re trying to find that one emotional benefit that will appeal to the buyer you’re trying to reach as quickly as possible.

Many newcomers make the mistake of trying to appeal to every visitor that comes to their site. If you try to appeal to everyone, you’ll end up with a vague, hype filled headline. You don’t need dramatic and worn out adjectives to create an effective headline.

Compare these examples: “Stop smoking in 30 days” versus “Throw your cigarettes out the window and kiss them goodbye forever”. The shorter, former, example does the job quickly without the hype.

Finally, frame your headline in quotes. Research has shown that putting a headline in quotes enhances credibility. Although this may not be as legitimate today, it’s become a standard convention. Not using it might make your headline seem like it’s missing something.

Once you’ve grabbed the reader’s attention with your headline, you now have one goal—to get the reader to buy.

The whole idea of telephone conversations, social networking, relationship building, co-promoting, journaling…all fall into the “seems natural” catagory for many women.

The discussion gets very interesting when Deb talks about the AFFORDABILITY of producing marketing messages that previously were too expensive for the small business person to even consider….like video presentations, self publishing, online radio (podcasting) and MORE!

She goes on to say that it takes time to develop your credibility and trust online and warns that there are rules for getting along in these “networking communities” that you have to be careful of, BUT on the whole…YOU CAN DO IT and GUTZY WOMEN can HELP!
