How do I get my site listed on search engines and directories? |
|
Getting listed on search engines is not automatic when your
site is live. There are 3 ways your site can get listed on search
engines and directories.
You submit your site to each individual search engine
and/or directory. To do this, go to each search engine and/or
directory and look for a link to submit your site.
You hire a company to submit your site to search
engines and/or directories. Companies that provide this service
often have several ways of getting your site listed higher up.
They also often have the option of signing you up to just a few
search engine or hundreds or thousands of search engines and/or
directories.
Your site is randomly found by a spider or bot and
indexed. Many major search engines and/or directories regularly
send out a spider or bot to crawl the internet and index sites
not yet in their listing. It will take 2 weeks or more for a
search engine to find and categorize your site.
