SEO FAQ

How do I get my web site to show up in the search engines?

Trust level: Proven and confirmed

As you might have noticed the submit URL function on the major search engines does not really help that much.

The best way to get your web site listed faster in the search engines is to get links to it from authority web sites (those with high PageRank).

By getting a great link from for example the home page of an established PageRank 7 web site can make your new web site and it's subpages indexed in a matter of hours.

If this is not an option for you then other good ways is to put a link to it from big forums signature, directories, friends sites etc.

If you wonder why only the home page is listed and not the rest it is because the search engine spiders first visits one time and then comes back for a "deep crawl". To speed up this process, the solution is to get more links to your site.
