A few days ago I finished my little travel site.I want somebody to answer me,what do you think about my design about the idea of this web and where do I have to submit it.I understand that it looks very simple,but that is all that I can do by myself,maybe later I`ll give to the proffesional webmaster to do it.I have already submit it to a lot of Top travel sites,different directories,search engines...now what???I still submit it to new derictories that I can fined,but I am not in yahoo,google and msn,I am not indexet yet.So tell me what are my mistakes,please...http://mindreal.com Thank you!
You are showing in Google. A site:mindreal.com search shows your index page. Just keep submitting to directories, if you haven't used vilesilencer's list, it's a good place to find free directories.
Your site looks fine in IE but screws up in Firefox. More and more people using ff everyday so I think it is important that you fix that first. Your only use of the important title tag is the word Travel. This is one of the key places for seo and while you might want to rank well for the single word travel, your chances of doing so are very slim just now. You´d be better to find a three or four word keyphrase that describes your site and that is used in the body text and incorporate that in the tilte pages of your site.
as you say.......give it to a professional webdesigner. It looks ok..but a professional could work magic with it.
I will do it,when I`ll do my second siteThank u,but u don`t tell me nothing about how to promote it.I saw websites that was not very pretty,but they are on the first pages in yahoo...I understand that I need time for this,but what should I do to make it faster.
Hi Helen, is this your first website design? If it is Im impressed, it's certainly better than my first attempt. Personally I don't think you need a professional webdesigner to do the work you need to do, yes it takes longer, but why pay someone when you can learn and have fun doing it aswell. To get the website promoted is not an overnight task, its taken me 3 years to get my primary site ranking well in Google, and unless your prepared to pay for an SEO expert, it'll take time. Main areas to concentrate on: Directories Write articles (I'm accepting unique travel articles with links back) Write press releases (www.prweb.com is your best bet) Participate in travel forums (Im a moderator at www.aardvarktravel.net - don't advertise and you'll get along fine! OR you could join my forum!) Provide free travel tools, with links back to your site Write a blog Write a monthly newsletter to keep visitors coming back SEO advice: Clean HTML designed website Research your keywords and competition Get links.. and more links, oh and ummm more links using your keywords Change your title and meta tags to include your keywords Within your content make sure these keywords are included. Hope this helps Darren I run a few travel sites so if you'd like to exchange links drop me a PM. Darren
