Page 2 of Search Engine Review

Domain Names can be important in helping to improve search engine placement.  If you have a trademarked company name which is an elementary part of a media plan, like IBM or General Motors, then this name should be the domain name.  Or, if there is a specific product or division for which a web site is being developed, then the product name or division name may be the appropriate Domain Name.

On the other hand, if there are no constraints on the actual Domain Name, then using the first characters in the alphabet may result in a higher ranking with some, but not all, search engines.  For example, if your company name is Zecan, and you don't care if the web site is named "Zecan," then you might consider using "a-zecan" for the name of the web site in order to improve Search Engine rankings.

(The El Valle Domain Name Service will help you select the BEST possible Domain Name to help your web site obtain higher search engine rankings.)

The more critical element of Search Engine placements involves the use of META tags (META commands) within the HTML code for the pages of your web site.  Search Engines use certain META tags for purposes of determining the subject matter of a web site and then they will weigh these META tags against the actual content of a page or pages.  It is for this reason that the web designer and the web copywriter must have a plan for Search Engine placement.

 
(The El Valle Web Design Service always determines the Search Engine plan as the first criteria in the creation of a new web site.)

Our Top 10 Search Engines are your best economic value and as a group will generate more "hits" than any other set of engines.  If you are uncomfortable relying on just ten engines, then add our Standard Add-On Engines.  They'll increase your hits.

Very Important:  From the time a Domain Name is registered with a Search Engine it may be several weeks before the search engine will actually index the site and show a return for that site.

Do It Yourself

You can register with Search Engines using packaged software found at most software stores.  You can also find shareware for this purpose on the Internet.  You can use your browser and go to each Search Engine, find their registration page and fill out their on-line registration form.  Or, you can use the El Valle Search Engine Registration Service to do it for you.
