Default How to get website to appear on search engines??

I would like to know the tips/tricks on how to get my website to appear on search engines...

The key words I used as my "meta tags" are not doing me any good...

Thanks!!!

Jason..call me when you get a chance. 1and1 has a service to submit your page to search engines (SEO), plus you should have some google ads credit with 1and1.

Also, change the title to something like

Auto Detail in (city name, state) - Deep Gloss Auto Salon (if that all fits fits)

Also submit free ads in:

yellowbook.com
superpages.com
yourcity.citysearch.com
google maps
yahoo maps
switchboard.com
magicyellow.com
etc.


I'm not sure how applicable this is....but I read also name your pages with key words, and use key words and phrases in your content. I think you are using the default numbers that the website builder package gave you. You will get more hits based on keywords if the page is named deep-gloss.com/carcare.htm vs. deep-gloss.com/8.htm

Give this a read also.

That is very interesting I want to set up a website myself and in the process of trying to find a way to start creating it. With just my average computer skills it is defentily going to be a project. How did you create your site if you don't mind me asking?

Jason and I both use 1and1.com for domain registration and web hosting. They have a site builder tool that is very easy to use, however it can be limited to what theme/style/colors you want to use but the layouts are nice. Check them out.


Also if you don't mind.....if you decide to go with them please let Jason or I know before you sign-up, I think we can get some referral credit or something.

Im a webmaster if anyone need help making or setting up a website let me know.

Also the answer to your question would be:
You need to have good SEO( search engine optimization) THe way your links work the way you place text on your website etc.
SEO is exteremely expansive.

Jason,

go here

www.google.com/webmasters/tools

if you don't have a google login, create one
Follow the prompts to register your domain with google, it's relatively painless

Anyone wanting links to their website who's already bought pads from me, shoot me an email with a banner ad attached and I'll put you an advert up on my site
If you haven't bought pads from me, sorry I can't give out email addresses, links etc etc and will not reply to PM's for the same as well

Mr Ed, If you want a link, just give Andy a shout, he'll hook you up! (think about how many Mustang owners you know...)

If you really want to get yourself out there and be on top of the search engines, you might have to pay a little bit for that. But just think about the return on that investment!

Dang, I just signed up with 1and1 about a month ago. Their website builder is alright but I feel like I'd be better off using something like Dreamweaver CS3. Think any of you web guys could help me out? I'm still learning the ropes, hehe.
