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.

In part 4 of a series of videos where Debbie Ducic of GutZy Women interviews David Skul and Frank Klein of Relativity, the message is “You CAN DO WEb 2.0!”

This series of videos can be used to glean knowledge from two very qualified and experienced technology guys as well as one GutZy Woman! In part 4, we have a great discussion about how web 2.0 works more like how women work naturally. 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!

Your goal may be to display a simple Website that introduces your company and products or services. Or you might be thinking about developing a fully functional ecommerce site. Either way, there are plenty of design options to meet your desires and needs.

How you design your Website depends in large part on how you want others to view your business. A Website should reflect your personality and products while displaying confidence and trust to visitors.

Whether you want visitors to signup for your email newsletter or buy something, your site will only be effective if it moves visitors to perform the action you intend. This is done through a combination of design and copywriting.

Below are 4 tips that will help you design a Website that meets your goals.

Simple is better 

With all the design technology and styles available, keeping to a simple design methodology is always the most effective. Simple designs are best, not only because you might be just starting out but because most Web users dislike “busy” Websites.

Start with your directory structure. How many pages do you want initially? Organize pages so users don’t have to “dig” into your site to find what they want. Your initial directory structure will lay the foundation for future page growth. One simple way to organize your structure is by file type. Images should have their own directory as should html and other file types.

There are many varieties of Web sites, each specializing in a particular type of content or use, and they may be arbitrarily classified in any number of ways. A few such classifications might include:

· Affiliate: an enabled web portal that renders not only its custom CMS, (Content Management System), but also syndicated content from other content providers for an agreed fee. There are usually three relationship tiers: 1. Affiliate Agencies, (e.g.,Commission Junction,) 2. Advertisers, (e.g., Ebay.) and 3.Consumer, (e.g., Yahoo!.)· Archive Site: used to preserve valuable electronic content threatened with extinction. Two examples are: Internet Archive, which since 1996 has preserved billions of old, (and new,) Web pages; and Google Groups, which in early 2005 was archiving over 845,000,000 messages posted to Usenet news/discussion groups.

·  Blog (or web log) site: sites generally used to post online diaries which may include discussion forums (e.g., blogger, Xanga). ·  Corporate Website: used to provide background information about a business, organization, or service. ·  Commerce site or eCommerce site: for purchasing goods, such as Amazon.com
