RE: FN-FORUM How do you google.com!

date posted 16th January 2002 20:26

I wasn't really trying to be smart - just illustrating that a 'good' web
site can be measured by many different factors.

I got the site by learning about search engines and how they work, then
implementing that knowledge. Part of my business is search engine
optimisation - it provides about a quarter of my income, so I'm not going to
give all my secrets away, however there are some easy ways to improve a
site. These include not having the page title as 'Home Page' - this could be
equated to putting a sign above a shop which says 'My Shop'. Ensuring you
have meta tags on the site and ensuring there is not a flash homepage.

But then again you should know this, I have just had a look at your site!! -
You really ought to get your Google Page rank up a bit.

All the best
