    Hello, I am new to this forum because it looks like the place where I can get help. I have had my website for about a week now and I still cant even get ranked on google. I dont even want to 'be in the top 3' as all the ads keep saying, just so when people type me into google I appear. I have tried to get my traffic increased by social networks and today I even went into the street and handed out flyers. Im not sure what else I can do to get onto google as I dont understand the criterea. I am a complete newbie to the internet game and could really use some pointers. Also what are the relevance of 'backlinks'? Do you need to know my website?Many thanks for any suggestionsAndrew

    Make sure to create a sitemap and add it to Google Webmaster Tools. This will help you getting pages indexed (ranked). To make your pages ranked higher you need to add some SEO technics.

    Nobody even said CRAWLER. :confused:

    How ever, your Question and request is way to complex. Nobody , will answer this correctly and in any detail.
    I suggest , in case you are REALLY interested in it and you are looking for help regarding SEO , you use Google or the Digital Point search Option.

    Here are literally 1000s of threads regarding SEO. Really no need to start a new one, in my opinion.

    Beside all this, Welcome to the Forum.

    Thank you for the welcome :) I know there are 1000's of pages about google and that but I just thought I could get peoples opinion on how I could start from the beginning :) I have read about crawlers and google, thats why I asked about crawlers. Thats how google gets you as a listing isnt it? Sorry to ask so many questions, this is the first place I have found to ask them all haha. How do I find out if I am ranked by google?

    The fundamental way to get ranked on google or any search engine is to have links to your site in various places over the internet. Back links are needed along with many other routes to ensure you can be ranked.

    You'll find lots of information here on this forum regarding back linking and how to get your site ranked :)
