Get Search Engines Index Your Website

If you want free search engine traffic from the search engines then the first step is to get your website indexed by the search engines. As long as your site is not indexed by Google, Yahoo and MSN, these search engines wont even know that your site exists.

There are SEO services online that claim that they can get your website indexed by hundreds of search engines. But they charge you good money for doing this. To tell you the truth, most of these services are not good. You can get your site indexed for free.

In my opinion, there are only three search engines on the internet; Google, Yahoo and MSN. The other so called search engines have so little traffic that you can ignore them. Focus on Google, Yahoo and MSN. Google is the most important search engine. In fact, it is the search engine. If your website is not indexed by Google than forget about getting search engine traffic. Google gets more than 60% of the search engine traffic and its share of the global internet searches is on the rise. Ignore it at your peril!

Yahoo is the second more frequented search engine on the internet and it get around 30% of the search traffic. Yahoo can be a source of lot of free traffic for your site.

MSN is the baby search engine. It gets around 10% of the search traffic on the internet. But the good thing about MSN is that it is easy to get ranked on it. The conversion rate on MSN is 3 times better than Google. Maybe the people who go on MSN are not that internet savvy.

Use the Google Webmaster Tools to submit the URL and sitemap of your site to Google. Googlebot will index your site in a few days.

Yahoo has its own Yahoo Explorer service. Open an account. Submit your site and its RSS feed. Yahoo takes a bit long in indexing a site. But once you have submitted your site, dont worry much. Your site will be in the Yahoo index in around a months time.

MSN has a free URL submit page. Use it to submit the URL of your site. Also click on the Webmaster link on the bottom of each MSN search page. Submit the URL of your site here as well. Getting your site indexed by these three major search engines should be your focus. Rest of the search engines exist only in name and will be a waste of your time.
