Rank your local Business with SEO

Approximately 80% of all web sites are found by using a search engine, so therefore it is important that your web site is included in as many of the relevant search engines as possible. As a rule of thumb, you should submit your web site to all the major search engines (approximately 10-15 in Australia and some of the major US players) plus any of the 1000's of other minor specialist search engines.

To get your fair share of this essential 'traffic' your site must feature in the first few search results. This won't just happen. Simply submitting to the search engines won't guarantee results. To appreciate what needs to be done you need to appreciate how search engines work. Search Engines use automated programmes called 'spiders' to read your pages and determine what they are about. They calculate "relevancy" by counting and cataloguing the actual words you use. They look for frequently repeated words. They look at where they are placed and how they are emphasized.
