Submitting Your Business Website
In this article, I would like to review a few suggested
guidelines for submitting your business website to search
engines and directories.
The first thing that I recommend is that you do not submit your
website to any search engine or directory until it is optimized
for keywords and content. Both play an important role in where
your website will be ranked. After all, if you do not have a
high ranking, you might as well not be listed at all. A great
tool for achieving this is through the use the IBP (Internet
Business Promoter) tool. This tool is exceptional for helping
you optimize your website and they do offer a free trial. You
can down load a trial version by pasting the following link into
your browser:

Make sure that you have plenty of incoming links. You can
achieve this best by submitting articles to websites such as
goarticles.com. Also, submit your website to Directories like
Yahoo and DMOZ.
Content, content, content! Make sure you have plenty of relevant
content, and update it regularly (daily if possible). Search
engines love new content.
Consider a forum or blog. They create inbound links to your
site. Create reciprocal links. Lots of them.... but be sure they
are relevant and don't use link farms!
DO NOT SUBMIT TO GOOGLE. Let them find you through other
established links. If you do the link work, Google will
eventually find you. They like it better that way.
Be patient! Good rankings do not come overnight. Once you
submit, sit back and wait. Do not keep submitting your site, as
many search engines and directories will penalize you for this
as they make look at it as spamming.
Follow the above basic guidelines and it will help you achieve
better ratings.
