I just built a website and started a company that builds e-commerce websites, shopping carts, and does optimization. It is located at http://www.e-searchmarketing.com I submitted it to Google/Yahoo last week, but it still does not show up on searches. Does anyone know how long it should take? If you get a chance, pls look at my keywords and site and tell me if I am corrrectly structured, eg, no frames, I did keyword selection for Overature keyword selector. Any tips or suggestions for high rankings would be appreciated. Thanks. private email: support@e-searchmarketing.com
Could you elaborate please, what is the best ways to get links to my site? How many do you think would be necessary?
You need to find links that are related to your website and are established links in the search engines so while their website is being indexed by the spiders the spiders could potentially leave the site via your link. If you can find sites that are related and do not ask of you to provide a link back to their page then this would be the preferred option. However reciprocal links work as well but remember the more outgoing links you provide on your site the more doors you open for the bots to go craw some where else. inbound links brings them in.....and outbound links sends them out Hope that helps because I too am still learning....very new to SEO. Content is king
Your question is way too broad. There are books written about the question you just asked. Spend time reading and searching through these forums and ask specific questions when you have them. Not just "how do i optimize my site?" And on a side note, it seems a bit strange to me that you would start a site that promotes SEO services and you clearly dont know anything about it.
Stewart - Thanks for the information. Tell me, why would a site want to link to an unestablished site like mine?? What would be in it for them? Of course, I would like to link to them however. Allen
Sites link to other sites...established or unestablished for the same reason. Content! Your site needs to provide the linking site an incentive to link to your website....fresh, updated, and unique content is the way to go. However based upon your initial posting I would be willing to bet that your bet bet would be to invest into Directory listings. You are entering a saturated marketspace and are bringing nothing new to the table....in other words another one of the 90's "dotComs" that have come and gone for the past 5 years. Pay for some of the Premium Listings (doesn't cost much...ever heard of the saying it takes money to make money....don't know how true it is because I am still broke....but i like the saying....heh) with not only good PR but quality content. PR flunctuates too much to spend your money on a site that may be a PR today and a PR3 tomorrow. PR requirements are continually changing.....but one thing (from what I have read) has remainded constant....CONTENT IS KING! Good Luck and hope that helps.
OK, I can think of some ideas already. I provide a 3rd party shopping cart that interfaces with various payment gateways, like PayPal, Authorize.Net, etc. They always want links to 3rd party carts, I could add some there. You mentioned Directory listings, which ones and how much do they cost? What do you know about IE PageRank? How do you improve it?
in the case of directory listing make sure the directory is seo friendly, it can be paid or free listing. the cost of paid listings varies to the directories itself.
yes what angel said.....directory listings vary from directory to directory......while looking you directories try and find a few that have premium advertising spots that allow your url to be seen on the home page.....the reality is you will more then likely be found quicker by being added to the highest pr page on the site....but its never a guarantee....and what the heck is IE PR? Your browser doesn't care what the PR for a website is...the browser is merely the portal for displaying the website. In response tp Google PR, this question has been answered a few times on here....Content, Backlinks, CONTENT, Backlinks, and did I say Content....there are a few other tricks that help finetune a page for even greater PR but those 2 right there will atleast allow you to achieve a pr of 4 or 5.
Write informative articles about SEO/web design/e-commerce (or pay somebody to write them for you) and submit them to hundreds of websites. Submit your site to hundreds of free directories and a few good ones that cost money.
