5 easy ways to get your website noticed. Website promotion, SEO the smart way
This methodology will work for both new businesses, and also existing websites where the existing website promotion, SEO strategy has so far failed to muster any tangible ascent up the search engine rankings.
CAREFULLY chose a keyword rich domain. No more than four words. Use hypens to separate each word. [Don’t worry, the hyphens will not hinder your recognition by Google in any way] For those who already have a website, but it isn’t indexed well on google, its worth considering starting from scratch as above.
Collate good quality content, which is THEMED on the topic of your keyword rich domain. There is lots of free advice on the internet as to how to structure this content to maximise its search engine friendliness.
Create an XML site map, and submit to google. At the same time verify your site with google also. Ensure you also set up Google analytics so you can monitor usage and visitor behaviours.
Heres the surprising one….now do nothing for 2 months. Don’t go rushing around like a headless chicken garnering meaningless links, nor burning the midnight oil submitting your site to Directories. Chill out. Let Google do its thing. All the time, observe what is happening in regards to visitor behaviour. Are there any keywords cropping up in the analytics that you can reverse engineer into your sites content? Are some pages seemingly being favoured over others? If so, can you identify why? Maybe your navigation isn’t spot on…or maybe the neglected pages are lightweight in terms of quality content.
Once you are satisfied that all the above is now set up correctly, now look to begin adding new quality content. Preferably whole new themed pages. Also begin to seek out high quality websites whose content is related [but NOT direct competition] and approach them personally to see if they will offer a link to your website. [you may have to give one back] Don’t use link farms under any circumstances, and look to grow your links gradually on a ‘quality not quantity’ basis.
