 Getting Listed In Major Search Engines

 
Getting listed in search engine is definitely one of the most best ways to get targeted and free traffics that your site needs. I would recommend to you to spend some time in submitting your site to as many search engine as possible. The best will be summiting your site manually, and  to be indexed by the search engine. The search engine will rank your page once it has indexed it, and below are few aspects that it look for in ranking your page.

How Search Engine Works In Determining Your Site Rank - Key Criteria

The general rule of thumb is that most engines use a "formula" to determine keyword relevancy to any particular site. The technical term is called an "algorithm", and each search engine has its own unique algorithm that it uses to rank pages. Therefore there is no one right way where anyone could say this is the correct way to get listed and ranked. But you always should follow the standard procedure to prepare your site to be indexed by search engine. You could find the full techniques on how to prepare your site for search engine by visiting Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Tips. You too could use third party software to assist you in Performing SEO to your site.
 
Also, you must have good content in order to be indexed properly. Search engines does not like websites that have few pages. On each of your page, you must have content to let the search engine understand what you are trying to say in the page and link your page to proper keywords. Note the title tag, keyword tag, title description only help in indexing your site, but the content that will do most of the job.
 
Another way is to have good quality incoming links from a site that already been indexed by a search engine and having good site rank. When a search engine spider comes back to the site to get latest update, it will see your site address has a link on that website. Most of the time the spider will follow the link and comes to your site to index and rank you page. But there is no guarantee this will happen all the time.

That is why many people do exchange link to increase chances to be indexed properly and better ranked. By now you should understand that one of the key to building free search engine traffic is to get as many related, high-quality sites to point back to yours.  Search engines like Google take this into great consideration when ranking your website

However, since many people started to perform many link exchange or reciprocal links (two sites linking to each other), many search engines started to ignore this trick. However, a single link from a good and highly ranked websites towards your site will definitely help. This is not a reciprocal link.

 

Mega Search Engine
There are few mega search engines in the world and these three are among them. They are Google, Yahoo and MSN. You must make sure that once you have published your site, you manually summit the site to at least these search engines. Please go to below address to summit.

        Google - http://www.google.com/addurl.html

      Yahoo - http://dir.yahoo.com

       MSN - http://search.msn.com/docs/submit.aspx

 
Summiting to these website does not guarantee your site will be indexed immediately. You still have to wait somewhere between 1 to 8 weeks. By summiting, you have a better chance.
