 Clients will occasionally ask me for tips about getting their site listed on the first page of google. Well, all I can say is that, being listed on the first page is no easy feat. Definitely a simple 5 page website will not qualify you to be listed on the first page of google. A website has to undergo Search Engine Optimisation before it can significantly increase its rankings. In fact, if the website is totally new, Google will have no way of knowing of its existence!
However, if you are keen to have you site listed in google, you can volunteer the url of your site at:
http://www.google.com/addurl/
Google will take note of it… in its next crawl and indexing. From then on, minimally your site will be listed along with the millions of hits. To work up the ranking of a site, you have to take note of the following:
- listing of keyords in your meta-tags
- keyword density in your website
- no of pages (generally sites with a high volume of content are preferred… as such blogs and cms systems are good ways to easily build up the content of a site…)
- incoming links from authoritative sites
Well, the listing above is just a very brief introduction of some things to take note of in Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). Good luck and have fun!

We need to develop a keen understanding of our customers taste and preferences to develop products more suited for the market.
