Submitting Your Web Site to Search Engines
After you've updated the keywords on your Web pages, you can submit
your site to the search engines. Here are the popular search engines where
IHR submits it's clients sites:
- Alta Vista
- AOL Search
- Direct Hit
- Excite
- Google - You can read the research
paper by Sergey Brin and Larry Page, "The Anatomy of a Large-Scale
Hypertextual Web Search Engine" at the following URL: http://www7.scu.edu.au/programme/fullpapers/1921/com1921.htm
- You will find the original algorithm for PageRank (in section 2.1.1)
and it is in fact elegantly simple. The algorithm boils down to just a
handful of variables; it is very likely that the PageRank algorithm
itself has been tweaked since this paper was first published (see for
instance http://www10.org/cdrom/papers/474/).
- Go.com (includes Infoseek)
- HotBot (Lycos Network) - uses
Inktomi database
- Lycos
- MSN Search
- NBCi
Search - uses Inktomi database
- Northern Light
- Webcrawler
NOTE: The following sites contain directories, so the directories are discussed on the Directories Web page:
Go (formerly Infoseek), Looksmart, NBCi (Snap),
Open Directory, and Yahoo.
Additionally, there are medical search engines, such as:
- HealthAtoZ
In
order to submit your site to a search engine, you would typically access the
search engine and look for a link on the bottom of their Web pages that says
something like "Add URL" or "Submit a Site."
Additional Tips
- After the initial registrations, regularly ensure that your Web site is
still registered in the major search engines. Sometimes Web site listings
disappear from search engines. One reason - search engines periodically send
out a robot to verify that the links in their database are still active. If
your Web site's Web server happened to be temporarily down when this
occurred, the search engine might drop your listing from its database. Re-register
your site, if necessary.
- Don't worry too much about registering your Web site with the smaller
search engines, because they don't generate much traffic.
