Commonly Asked Search Engine Positioning Questions



Web Site Promotion
Placement. You are probably here because you already understand the value and importance of high positioning in the search engines to increase your Internet traffic, so this page does not include a hard sell. We offer a long term positioning program, rather than one off page creation and registration. This allows us to monitor the search engine placement and respond as necessary to improve that, rather than hoping that the initial work will have the desired effect. It also allows a fast response to search engines changing their ranking algorithms.

Which Search Engines?
Around 95% or more of all users use one or more of the top 10 to 20 search engines. Therefore, we concentrate all of our efforts on promoting sites on these engines, because these are where your visitors will come from. We also prioritise efforts in terms of the popularity of each of the search engines.

How Long Will It Take?
Web site promotion is a never ending process. The time it takes to get initial results varies. This is very much out of our control. Some search engines take only a few days to include your listing, while others can take up to three months. Yahoo has a very high failure rate for registration; in other words, many sites are never listed. We will do our best to avoid this situation for you.

Promotional Partnership
Web site promotion is our business, and you should really regard us as your business partners, rather than a contracted service. Because of our reputation depends upon our results, we are as interested in your success as you are.

Quality Promise
We promise that all of the promotional work that we carry out for you will be based on legitimate tactics. There are many ways to trick search engines, but these can easily get you banned or removed from listings. Therefore, we concentrate on making functional, well designed pages to assist your search engine presence.

Link Popularity
Web site promotion has many aspects, and one of the methods we use to promote your page is to use link popularity. This is our own cross-linking service, that improves the popularity of your pages in the eyes of the search engines. We use our own sites to ensure that none of our customers are associated with unsavoury web sites, which can happen with many cross-linking services.

What Do You Want ?
Web site promotion can take many forms, and we are prepared to experiment with these. Although this page presents our general services, we are certainly willing to come to an alternative arrangement, if your needs are different. For instance, you may only be interested in placement among a single group of search engines, such as the Excite family, or looking for newsgroup promotion.
