Q: Dear Andrew, Can you please advise us on the top search engines to submit our web site to for maximum relevant traffic?
A: I think submitting websites to search engines is almost a waste of time. More important activities are:
Write articles regularly, submitting to articles directories (weekly activity)
Write Press releases using keywords in your title to www.prweb.com (do at least 1 per month)
Create a blog and update it with your URL in it (2 -3 times a week)
Get 1 way links from submitting your website to directories, in fact I can not live without www.directory-submitter.com software. It gives you over 800 places to get one way links from. After I submit my home page, I go back and submit my main sub-pages as well.
Create a video promoting something you are selling and submit to Google Video and www.youtube.com
make sure you use the service of
www.increasevideotraffic.com when video
marketing.
Write a report and sell it on eBay with master reprint rights so other people on sell it too
Create a reason for people to pass your website on, such as using tell a friend scripts (like I helped to set up at: http://www.planet-wealth.com/newsletter.html , join their newsletter to get a feel of what is going on here).
So be prepared to do constant activities that get you links. Do not forget PPC (pay per click) search engines such as Google Adwords and Yahoo's Overture programs. This will also get you into the search engines.
