How To: Search engine submission

Searchengic3 You have created and uploaded your first web site and you are proud of what you did. Now you want other people to see it too. After you have your website hosted up on the server and it works well, second step is submitting it to as many search engines possible. Search engines such as Google, Yahoo, MSN etc, are indexing pages by keywords so make sure that you have them on your web site because they are very important. In this short tutorial I am gonna show you how to submit your web site using http://www.addme.com/ search engine submitter.

1. Go to: http://www.addme.com/submission.htm where you can choose between free or paid submission.

2. I will use free submission, so click on Basic Search Engine Submission (14 search engines)

3. Before you begin, they recommend that you put a small badge of their site on your web site in exchange for a free service they provide you with.

4. Now comes the fun part. There is a few fields that you need to fill before you can actually cast your submission. Website or Business Name is where are you going to put your web site name e.g “John’s web space”. URL field prompts you to enter your web site URL:http://www.johnswebspace.com. From a drop-down menu you have to select the type of your web site. It can be a blog, business or a private site. Now you need to enter a description of your site and the keywords for it. Entering keywords is very important because search engines use those when finding your web site on the Internet. Make sure that you have the same keywords as you do in your HTML code. It is very important that keywords match. After you have entered all that is needed, double check it. When you are sure you have entered everything right, fill in your contact informations. Do not tick any boxes on the page bottoms unless you want some more spam in your inbox ;)

5. Click next to go further in the process. On the next page you will see the red “Add me” button before the name of a search engine. If you want to submit your site to that engine, click “Add me”. When you get confirmation that the submission was successful, click next and keep repeating the steps for each search engine that you want to register your site with. Some search engines require you to confirm your name and your e-mail address. When you come to a final step, you will be asked to recommend “Add me” services to your friends by entering their e-mail addresses in the fields. You can skip this step as it wont affect your submission process.

6.You will receive an e-mail for each engine that will tell you if your submission has been accepted.You have to wait for at least 10 days for your web site to become available on all the engines you have submitted it to. If you have additional questions about website submission,leave a comment or e-mail me.
