Tav Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 I figure their might be some people on here who know a thing or two about websites. I was wondering if anyone could tell me the best ways to submit a website to search engines. I did submit the url to google and altavista a while ago but only a few sites come up and none of them are the acctual url...any help would be groovy, cheers!

Neil Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Google spiders this web site at least every few days. I have no idea why as I've never submitted this web site to a search engine before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Tristen Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Been trying to figure out a way for ages of getting sites bumped a little, but frankly apart from paying for an advertising slot, it just doesn;t seem to want to work.

Charlotte Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I went to a really good Scottish Enterprise free 2 hour seminar on this a couple of weeks ago called 'Internet Marketing'. You should check out:http://www.scottish-enterprise.com/sedotcom_home/services-to-business/going-online/ebusinessworkshops.htmI'll look over the handouts and post some tips tomorrow.

Tav Posted February 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Apprently the more sites that point your site then the higher up you appear on google so maybe if I type www.mairiewen.co.uk on here it will help...or if someone people could search for it on google.co.uk that'd be good. Mairi Ewen Stained Glass and Sculpture is what I normally try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
