Thread: Search Engine Questions

Hi,

I'm having a little bit of a hard time getting recognized by the se's. As a newbie in the domain, some helpful tips on how to make my site have a better ranking would be very appreciated.

I already started sharing links with some websites and submitted my site manually to google and yahoo but still can't see any results.

URL is www.pokerbonusportal.com

There is a good read & download here, from Beth. http://www.moxie-enter-prises.com/webdesign-seo.html

Thanks, Chris!

I just looked at your site - and you're advertising that you're new. People are afraid of "new" sites on line. How about making it "our first 50 customers in February" or better yet "the first 50 customers February 10th-15th". Yes, you might not have 50 customers during that period - but it gives a sense of urgency to the offer - and if you don't - you just need to select a winner among those you do have.

If you look at the search term "poker" on google, you'll see you are competing with 115 Million other sites for that term. I suggest you do some homework and find some phrases that might be easier to compete for - and then optimize your site for them. You're going to need lots more pages, lots more information - to see yourself in any search results organically.

Thanks to both of you. That was very helpful. :)
