I browsed around for some search engine submittors, but they seem to be very expensive. Are there any free websites that submit your domain to search engines? I am looking for a good one that is worth using and that sends my website to some of the best and numerous search engines. Thank you!
How is your web site promotion going? Getting frustrated? I felt muddled too, until I discovered what few new web marketers know about —organic marketing.
Organic marketing is just as it sounds—”natural”. In essence, you build a network of connections to your site using natural and simplistic methods. The best part is…it costs you nothing but your time.
Many individuals are still under the impression that to promote their web site, they either have to pay for each click they get on Google or they have to hire a web-site promotion firm at $1000+ per campaign in order to get exposure.
Take it from me, I started into the web marketing business with NO marketing knowledge. I taught myself. How did I do it? The answer is simple: START ASKING QUESTIONS!
Once I started asking questions and finding the answers, the pieces began fitting together. I soon discovered that there are as many options to marketing my web site as there are places to purchase a car—I don’t have to go to just one purchaser or have one strategy.
I want to share my knowledge with all of you who are feeling discouraged. In my last article called, Alleviate Your Internet Marketing Stress, I provided an overview of organic marketing and some of the basics. Read that first to gain a broad understanding of the concept.
In this article, I want to give you an overview of steps to marketing your website using this approach.
First, start with an analysis of your site and your keywords. Your keywords will ultimately determine how relevant your web site is to interested customers. Use the keyword analysis tool called www.wordtracker.com to come up with a list of keywords you think people will type in when they search for your site.
Second, check your site to make sure those same keywords are located near the top of the page. That way the search engine spiders “bots” will be able to read them and immediately determine your relevance. Make sure your keyword density (# of keywords vs. total words) is appropriate, i.e, don’t go overboard!
Third, create readable pages. Readable pages mean that your website pages can be easily read by the search engine robots or “bots”. There is a complete checklist to making sure your pages are “readable”. Get a checklist off of the Internet and go through it. Some examples of items to consider are: make sure you’re not using frames, examine your title tags and description tag, ensure the navigation system on your site is not created using JavaScript, etc.
Fourth, register with search engines. Search engines represent the single most important source of new visitors to your web site. Your goal should be to get your sites submitted to (at least) the following engines: Google, yahoo.com, Teoma/Ask Jeeves, Open Directory project and MSN.com. These are the best places to start. Get onto each of their sites, and find out how to submit your site…and then do it.
Last, link to other sites and encourage them to link to yours. Establishing links to your site is one of the best ways to give the impression of a useful site. If you’re site is a popular place to be for visitors to be, it will directly affect how high you rank in the search engines. There are strategies for doing this and you need to find out how to boost your position using link popularity. Again, get a list of how you do this off of the Internet. Some elements that may be part of your strategy could include: avoiding links with no value, connecting to a group of websites related to a particular subject, etc.
If you have particular questions about how this any of this is done, feel free to email me at my website below. In my next articles, I will be focusing more on the exact “how tos”. In the mean time, don’t give up. This type of marketing takes time. Get educated and you find yourself soon marketing like a pro!

There were 11,820 searches for pizza restaurants in Chicago on Yahoo! in May, 2006. In Los Angeles there were 7,993 searches and in Detroit, 5,522. Identical searches occurred in nearly every major and not so major city in the U.S.
And not just for pizza restaurants. Italian, Mexican, American, Chinese and just plain restaurants, all had their share of online searches.
In short, there are a lot of people looking for good food online. The smart restaurants are positioning themselves to reach these online customers, make them feel welcome, and encourage them to try their restaurant’s food.
Marketing your restaurant on the Internet means targeting your Internet advertising so that it will reach your local customers. Bring them to your website, give them good reasons to try your food and make it easy for them to place their first order with you.
Unless you happen to own a national restaurant chain, or are located in a major tourist destination, your customers are probably going to be located within a five to ten mile radius of your restaurant.
Your ultimate marketing goal is to get people to try your food. Internet marketing is no different, only the tools you use are new. One key tool you should have is your own website.
Once potential customers visit your website, your site should have all the tools needed to convince them to give your restaurant a try.
But before your website can do its job, you need to bring local online visitors there.
That’s where local Internet advertising comes into play. There are plenty of ways to reach your local online community on the Internet. One often overlooked method is the Yahoo! local business listing.
Anyone can create a local Yahoo! business listing for free. The listing can contain your restaurant contact information and include a link to your website.
With a local Yahoo! listing your restaurant can show up near the top of the search results when someone does a search for your selected category. When they browse your listing they can click on your web address and will be taken to your web page. For example, let’s assume you operate a pizza shop in Chelsea, Michigan. Go to Yahoo! and do a search for “pizza restaurant Chelsea Michigan” or “pizza Chelsea Michigan.” In the first page of the search results notice a section called local listings. You will probably see an entry for Ollie’s Main Street Pizza. Click on it and you’ll see their local listing which includes their website, www.olliesmainstpizza.com which you can click on to visit their web page.
You can create your own local listing on Yahoo! just like Ollie’s.
To create your free listing, use your web browser and navigate to http://local.yahoo.com. If you have a Yahoo! member ID and password and are not logged in, you have to log in now; if you are not registered with Yahoo, you will need to create a member ID and password (it’s free) to list your business.
Once you have accessed http://local.yahoo.com, scroll down to the bottom and click on “Add/Edit a Business.”
You will then be on the Yahoo! Search Marketing Local Listings page. In the lower right of the screen you will see “Local Basic Listings FREE”. Click on the Get Started button (you may need to scroll down to see it). You may need to log in again with your Yahoo! ID and password.
The form for your local business listing now is displayed. When filling it out, be sure to include your full web address. That is, http://www.yourpizzeria.com rather than just www.yourpizzeria.com.
Include a description of your food and services in the description section. Avoid hype or blatant advertising, the listing must pass Yahoo’s editorial review and the simple facts are your best bet here.
Also, be sure to select the appropriate business category and sub categories. In our case, this would be restaurant and pizza.
Assuming your listing passes editorial review, it should show up in 3 to 5 business days.
When it does, someone who searches for pizza restaurants in your town will see your restaurant in the local listings on the search results page. Through that listing they will be able to visit your website and you can convince them to try your fresh baked, hand tossed, home made pizza.
This is just one of many ways to advertise online for free.
Bear in mind though, that all the free Internet advertisements in the world will do you little good unless your web site can engage your visitors and convince them to become your customers. Since it is not yet possible to upload the mouth watering aromas that waft from your kitchen, you’ll need to use other techniques on your website.
We’ll talk about that in the next part of this article series along with another free online marketing tip.

With Search Engine Submit, you can submit your website to over 130 engines in one Go. No need to do tiresome manual submissions on every serach engine now. www.submitprowith.us http
