Seo Basics - Site Submission

[mutantspace]

without meaning to sound like a complete idiot but how do you submit sites to directories and search engine. Ive just launched a site and am frantically sending out links, pr, etc. Its an artists resource site and as of yet i have no marketing money.....
thanks alot or the help

Most of the directories have an "add link" or "submit link" button

 

[louie]

Do a search in Google for "submit link" - Google Search or "add link" - Google Search=

The problem with that is that it's time consuming, but Rome wasn't build in one day...

use the fluffylinkulator rapid inclusion service

actually the three links it gives are the basics ... and go from there.

Personal networking can also be effective.

If you have even a small audience for your site and you are willing to share your audience with me then I can share my different audience with you.

You can do this by link or banner exchange or by giving people or sites a personal plug on your site or blog.

3 way links are better than direct swops. i.e. a links to b who links to c who links to a. These 3 way links are obviously slightly more difficult to arrange.

It's on forums such as this that you can get to know people and they can get to know you, thereby building trust and relationships.

Best of luck !

Don't do anything frantically...

Post your url on the boards here and come out of hiding - you will then get better advice.

Throw €20 Louie's way and visit his Directory submission tool (in his sig).

You are really asking several questions here. If you have not already submitted to Google, Yahoo, and MSN then do so. Use Google's webmaster tools to submit an XML sitemap.

You can forget the directory route that is an obsolete practice. Use forums in your industry and use Digg and Stumple... That should help!

That really varies greatly from company to company. Some companies charge up to 10,000 just to get the process started while others are very reasonably priced. There are a lot of different skills levels available as well as services.

Before anyone hires an SEO provider we suggest that you check to see if they are actually ranked on the first page of Google for the service that they provide. While it is difficult to get on the first page of Google for The search SEO. Any good SEO should be ranking high in their specific markets.

We call this walking the walk and talking the talk. Lots of companies talk SEO but only a few actually walk the walk.

If I quoted you a price here that would be considered self promotion and it is not allowed, nor do I feel it would be appropriate.

Here is a good list of pr3+ submission directories. It's a good strategy to submit to 5-10 every day for a while.

 

[mutantspace]

Yes search engines and directories etc have submit button, or if youe with ekmpower shop etc thats all sone for you including the price per month you pay.
Try not to add to too many directory etc all at once as sometimes it can do more harm then good.
