Adding your Web site to the World Wide Web is probably the most important step in the process when it comes to the success of your business. The reality of course is if no one can find your Web site, they won't know you are even in business. Provided on this page are several search engine submission links. However, before you submit your Web site to a search engine, there are some factors that you should be aware of that will help your site achieve a higher placement in search results.
Meta Tags are placed at the top of a Web page within the HEAD element. They are used by many search engines to determine what ranking your site will have based on the search criteria used.
The most important of these Meta Tags are Description Meta Tags and Keyword Meta Tags.
Let's say for example your business is called George's Shoe World Outlet. You would want to construct Meta Tags that would resemble the following:
Try to keep the description brief, no more than 200 characters.
If the same keywords are repeated too often, some search engines will not index the page. Search engines usually only process the first 1000 characters of the keywords list.
Seperate your keywords with commas and remember that keywords might be considered case sensitive by some search engines.
