Best Web Site Submission Practices
October 20, 2008 – 5:24 amSubmitting web sites to different resources like web directories has become almost a compulsory seo job for all web masters along with article submission and now social bookmarking and Web 2.0 submission. A knowledgeable web master will also go for Press Releases and RSS Feed submission. And if you think you are a breed apart, you may also create a software related to your site and submit the same to hundreds of software directories.
And don’t forget the traffic (which is in some cases viral) these kind of submission generate. To be very frank, directory submission is only for seo. Use manual directory submission to get backlinks from it and don’t expecttraffic from it. You can however expect some traffic from article marketing. Your article, if you are ready to do a little promotion for it, might just hit the top 10 position in Google when you subit it to sites like Ezinearticles.com. Associated Content is another good resource that you may consider. Isnare.com is a paid service who apart from publishing your article will also sumit it to thousands ofother article directories.
By the way, I just remember that there is another great way to get backlinks as well as very targetd traffic. I’m talking about leveraging video sharing sites like YouTube, Google Video etc. You can create cool little videos and submit them to YouTube and other video sharing sites. This is a very effective strategy.
Directory submission has ben an all time favorite among the wemasters and web site owners. No SEO expert can deny it’s effectiveness as a backlink getter and it is still an absolute must as far as search engine optimization is concerned. But while planning a seo for a new site (and also for older sites) you need to get as many backlinks pointing to your site as possible. Actually, it’s in your hand . . . I mean you don’t have to send emails and request for backlinks from their sites (and get turned down in most cases). All you need to do is invest some time andget all the submission done one by one. Is it going to take time to do all those submissions ? Yes, it will. But you have an alternative. You can outsource all your submission job from somebody else. Is it worthy? Absolutely, because it will save your precious time and allow you to churn out more contents and do more creative jobs.
Besides, if you hire experienced submission services like submitatonce.com , you get much more than mere submission. They know their job and practices best submission policies.
More on it in my next post.
