We all know there are more search engines out there than just Google and even though we may think Google will give us the best start in internet life, it is still important to know your search engines inside out including who they talk to, how they work and which ones will benefit you the most.
There are three main search engine players in the internet world known as Yahoo, MSN and Google. Each of these providers is furiously battling it out to win us over and provide search results for us alongside other services (with the possible exception of Google who has an internet presence so large it tends not to worry about it). In addition to this these search engine providers are also talking to each other in different ways for different reasons. Many search engines share resources and include additional support and information sharing including directory listings, website listings and search enhancement.
Other search engines include famous names such as Ask (formerly ask jeeves), hotbot, lycos and dogpile. Again these search engines all talk to each other in different ways and you may not need to submit your website to all of them as it will pass your website on automatically. It may surprise you to learn that there are also a variety of smaller search engines you may not have heard about before. Some of these search engines provide search results in a different way, or they may have a different method for sorting results. Some of them are topic specific and some of them are industry specific. There are hundreds of search engines out there to choose from and you will need an in-depth knowledge of them all to ensure you get the most out of your link building and SEO marketing plan.
This is why many people will turn to a specialist search engine marketing company to take them through the process and essentially do all of this for you. You can let them worry about which search engines to submit details to, which additional smaller ones would benefit you and which ones talk to other engines on your behalf. It is also useful for directory submission to know which search engines use what directories. As with all internet submissions, search engines and directories can penalise you for submitting duplicate URL’s. As such it is always better to first make sure you know which websites use which directories and then check to see if your link is not already in there by searching for it in the directory you wish to submit to. For example, Google may appear to have its own directory, but by submitting your website tot he Google directory you are actually submitting it to the popular DMOZ directory.
A link building company will be able to professionally conduct accurate and efficient search engine submission and directory submissions alongside alternative SEO marketing strategies such as digital media marketing and social media networking. They have an in-depth knowledge of the landscape of search engines and associates so that they can provide you with the best marketing plan available.
