Optimisation and Search Engine Submission
Optimisation
has several components, some visible to the end user, some not visible.
Visible aspects include keyword/keyphrase density in the actual
textual content of the website, page titles and use of a variety
of header tags to emphasise blocks of text. Hidden components include
meta-statement construction, alt tag construction etc. We can’t
give too much away here, but there are a lot of ways to create search
engine friendly web sites.
We
prefer to work with static html table websites, although sites that
use frames and dynamic sites can also be optimised. At the front
of your site we would try to dissuade you from using Flash, Java
or other presentation technologies. They are not search engine friendly
(the content cannot be indexed, at least not yet anyway) and at
the end of the day, people who are using the web looking for your
product want information first, bells and whistles second.
We
offer a range of packages in terms of number of search engines submitted
to. Standard packages usually cover the top five engines; this will
usually cover at least 80% of web users within any language market.
Extended coverage comes with ten engines; rarely is it necessary
to go beyond ten engines as those engines not in the top ten are
minor and have very limited reach. All submissions are done by hand;
we use no submission software. Where a particular engine requires
a paid submission, this is always included in our quote. There are
no extra charges.

following language groups:

"Different search engines and directories
require
different submission procedures..."
When
these options have been confirmed, the submission process gets underway.
Different search engines and directories require different submission
procedures, so we tailor all our submissions to search engines by
hand. This is done according to our own set of protocols that have
been customized over time to ensure best rankings. Indexing can
take anywhere from 24 hours to three months; each engine has its
own schedule.
Your
website has now been submitted to the leading search engines in
your target markets. Two questions remain. How do you know it is
performing for you, and how are you going to process all those enquiries
in a language you cannot read?
