7 Quick Tips to Improve Your Free Internet Advertising with Search Engines
http://www.netmarketingresults.com
Search engines can provide one of the best free Internet
advertising methods for any business. The problem is that
everyone is submitting their sites to search engines and it is
very competitive. If you don't rank relatively high in your
selected keywords it really won't make any difference no one
will ever see you're site.
To make free search engine advertising pay off there are
four things you need to accomplish.
A) Find a keyword phrase that will be searched by your targeted
audience with high frequency but with low competition (i.e.
number of competing websites). This will increase your chances
of a high ranking.
B) Get your site indexed by the right search engines to cover
90 %+ of the search engine traffic.
C) Achieve a high ranking (first 20 or less) when your
chosen keyword phrase is searched.
D) Compel your target audience to click on your link when it
is displayed.
If you accomplish the above you can expect to freely receive
targeted search
engine traffic.
In this article we are assuming that you have already chosen
a keyword phrase and written a keyword phrase rich web page.
Here are a few things that you can quickly do to help you
accomplish points B, C and D above.
1) Write a Compelling Title
Think of your title as the headline of your ad. Your title
should be around 5 - 10 words. Your title should describe
your content in an attention-grabbing manner and include your
targeted keywords.
A great title can easily double, triple or quadruple your
click-throughs. If you are not familiar on how to write an
attention getting headline you should spend some time learning
this skill.
2) Include Your Title in the HTML Title Tag
This may seem obvious but you would be amazed at how many
sites have web page titles that say "home", or some other
generic tag. Your title is what the viewer will see when your
page appears in the search engine.
The title format looks like this: TITLE7 Quick Tips to
Improve Your Free Internet Advertising with Search Engines
/TITLE
3) Write a Compelling Description
Think of your description as the ad copy in a classified ad.
Your description should be compelling, keyword rich and calling
your audience to act. Your description should support your
headline and encourage your targeted audience to click your
link. Write your description in 200 characters or less and put
the most compelling part of the description first in case the
last part is cut-off when displayed.
4) Include Your Description in a Description Meta Tag
Some search engines use this to determine the description
that is presented to the user.
The description meta tag looks like this:META NAME="
description" CONTENT=" Quickly improve your free Internet
advertising results with search engines with these 7 tips
plus more articles on free internet advertising "
5) Include Your Description in a HTML Remarks Tag
Your remarks should be added just below your title tag. Some
search engines will pick this up as your description and
display it to the search engine user.
The remarks tag looks like this: !-- Quickly improve your
free Internet advertising results with search engines with
these 7 tips plus more articles on free internet
advertising --
6) Put Keywords in a Keywords Meta Tag
Each page should have keywords and phrases in the keyword
meta tag. These keywords should be relevant, describe your
content and be terms that someone may use to search the web
for the information contained on the page. Use 20 to 50
keywords in this tag. Try not to repeat a keyword more than 5
times. Some search engines will consider this keyword spamming
and give the page a lower score or excluded your page
altogether.
The keyword meta tag looks like this:
META NAME=" keywords" CONTENT="Free Internet Advertising,
Search Engine Advertising, Internet Advertising, Free Online
Advertising"
Everything together would look like this and should be
placed below the HTML tag and above the BODY tag in
your web page:

/HEAD

7) Search Engine Submission
Once you're page is ready you can submit your page URL. Only
do this every 30 days per URL. If you do this too much some
search engines will consider this spamming and exclude that
page.
Here are a couple of sites where you can submit your page to
multiple search engines for free. To maximize your search
engine coverage use this two step approach.
A) Submit your page URL at Submit Express
Go To <a href="http://www.netmarketingresults.com/se/">http://www.netmarketingresults.com/se/</a>
B) Then go to Jim Tools at
<a href="http://128.121.225.20/submit/index.html
">http://128.121.225.20/submit/index.html
</a> Now exclude Google, HotBot, Lycos and What You Seek and
submit your URL.
This process will allow you to submit your page to a
majority of search engines without submitting your page
more than twice.

You can do all of the above in a few minutes and boost your
free advertising with search engines. It takes a few weeks
for search engines to index your site so the sooner you start
the sooner you will see the rewards.
