subject: Search Engine Optimization And Social Media Marketing Service [print this page] Googles new innovation was just matched this week by a developer at Microsoft who was rumored to have written the application in just over a day. Even more amazing is perhaps the short run that Google had with being the only kid on the block with the instant search toy. It appears that Microsoft has built its own instant search using Bing APIs and some low-key timing settings. This accounts for a slight lag but it is predicting results as soon as you start typing keywords. It then works by analyzing 100 milliseconds between each key stroke, and as soon as you pause, bing references the api to get the suggestions.
If youve been using as one of your search engine optimisation tools youre probably pretty happy with the functionalities that the service brings. At first glance it might seem that another link analysis tool would just be redundant and, for the most part, that is actually true. However there are some things that Open Site Explorer can give that Linkscape doesnt really do and vice versa. In the future though Rand said that OSE and Linkscape will probably become integrated with one becoming the premium version.
The question of how well you rank on various search engines only comes into the picture once your website is indexed by the search engines. For that the search engine crawlers somehow have to crawl your website and to crawl your website they have to reach it. If your website exists in total isolation nobody is linking to you it is very difficult for the search engine crawlers to reach your website. To get indexed, or at least to get crawled (no matter how creepy the expression sounds) some other website, blog, or online directory must link to you. If you already have a website or a blog that is already indexed and you want a new website indexed, there should be no problem. Just put your link on the existing website or blog and sooner or later your new website too will be crawled, and consequently, indexed. If you dont have an existing indexed website or blog, then you have the following options:
Two extremely popular and important Internet directories are DMOZ and Yahoo! Unlike Google, that is a search engine, directories organise links under various categories and sub-categories. Due to all the hype that search engines get most web masters fail to recognise the significance of submitting their links to Internet directories. Although very few people these days prefer to sift through the directory categories to find the links they want, search engines use these web directories as potent referral systems and there is a reason behind it.
You have to in most cases manually submit your link to a directory. Once you have submitted the link, a human reviewer visits your link. So all your links are subjected to high level of scrutiny, which is not possible with software assisted submissions. When your link is approved and included in the directory, the search engines consider it as a validation and hence they attach more value to your presence in the directory rather than on some other website.
