Hey, take a look at my site. As you can see, there's not much "content", so search engines have a hard time making descriptions look nice. I'm also getting almost no SE traffic . Anyways, I just got a hit for "hide me proxy" from Live where I'm ranked in 4th for the term. The result looked like this: Proxy - doDesign ... Hide Me ; Type: Proxy ; Color Scheme: Brown and Green ; Filetype: Coded in XHTML/CSS ; Number of Pages: 1 ... dodesign.us/proxy Cached page I assume I'd rank a bit better if I can fix some of these things and hopefully that'd lead to more ad clicks (god those organic traffic visitors are stupid!). The site is powered by Wordpress if that helps..
You have no MetaTags. Google: Wordpress metatags plugin - and you'll find some. One that seems popular: All in One SEO pack
Thanks a bunch, I'll get to that. Can anyone recommend a good meta description? My site basicly provides free web design designs for all the visitors. +rep for anyone that can help rep given to malok
okay, I've installed the plug-in and added a description for every post. How long until search engines pick up the changes?
If you are using Google Analytics/Webmaster tools - you can resubmit your sitemap, and it should pick up very quickly. Alternatively - it will depend how frequently the bots are crawling your site. [If you are adding content frequently, they should see the changes very quickly on their own without resubmitting your sitemap.]
