Sometimes, search engine spiders don�t visit your site even
after it has been up for a month or too. Or sometimes the site
is listed on a search engine, but then taken down. In either
case, it is time for the web site owner to submit or re-submit
the site to a search engine. This process isn�t overly
difficult, but there are some guidelines web site owners should
follow in order to ensure success. We�ll be going over where you
can submit sites, how to submit sites and how to re-submit
sites.
Where can I submit my site to?
There are literally hundreds of different search engines which
you can submit your site to. We�ll go over just 5 of the most
popular ones here.
Google
Google is definitely the most popular search engine around, as
it is used by millions of people each day. You won�t usually
have to manually submit sites to Google, as their spiders are
pretty good about finding new sites. However, you occasionally
will have to do this. It�s pretty easy and we�ll go over the
process later in this newsletter.
Yahoo Search Engine
The second most used search engine around, the Yahoo! Search
engine is pretty easy to use and has lots of good features. It
is easy to submit to.
Lycos
This is an easy to use search engine with lots of the same
features Google has. Again, usually you don�t have to manually
submit sites here, but sometimes you do. Luckily it�s easy, fast
and effective.
AllTheWeb
This is yet another popular search engine with quite a few
features. Lots of people use this search engine, so it�s
definitely worth it to submit your site.
Altavista
While not as popular as it once was, Altavista still receives
many of visitors seeking to use the search engine. It�s a good
idea to submit your site to Altavista.
One thing to keep in mind is that you should submit your site
not just to the well-known search engines, but also to the
smaller ones as well. The more your site is listed, the more
visitors you are likely to get.
How do I submit sites?
Submitting sites to search engines is really easy. You�ll just
go to the search engine�s site, click on �Submit a site� and
then fill out the necessary info about your site. There are some
things you should keep in mind, though. Here�s a short list for
reference.
1. Don�t brag too much about your site. Remember that people are
reading your submissions and approving them. If they see �this
is the best site ever!� in your site�s description, they
probably won�t be impressed. In fact, it might even keep them
from approving your site. Be modest.
2. Provide an accurate description of your site. If your site is
about sports, for example, talk about what sports your site
covers.
3. Make your description as concise as possible. People who are
looking at your submission don�t have time to read through a
big, long description.
4. Don�t submit or re-submit your site if all pages aren�t
complete. Search engines don�t like incomplete sites, so it is
pointless to take the time to fill out the form for submission
if your site isn�t completely finished.
With that having been said, here are some quick links to search
engines which you can submit your site to:
Google: http://www.google.com/addurl/
Yahoo Search Engine:
https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit/
Lycos: http://www.lycos.com/
AllTheWeb: http://www.alltheweb.com/help/webmaster/submit_site
AltaVista: http://www.altavista.com/addurl/default
How to Re-submit sites
Before you try to re-submit a site, take the following into
consideration.
1. Has it been at least a few weeks since you originally
submitted the url?
2. Was your site pulled from the search engine because it had
content on it that was deemed inappropriate? If so, you should
reconsider re-submitting your site, as it will only get pulled
again if it has bad content on it.
If it has been several weeks since you submitted your site, or
you believe your site was pulled from the listings accidentally,
then you should re-submit the site. To re-submit the site, all
you have to do is follow the same process as you did when you
submitted the site before.
Search engine submission is fast and easy. If your site
isn�t listed on the search engines, take a minute to manually
submit it. It�ll help boost your traffic!
